apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Let me tell you how much I love the crew over at Junk in the Trunk - aka JITT.com I met Frank several years ago when they were featured on Daily Candy

As a professional organizer, most of my clients have stuff that needs to be hauled away and I have JITT is on speed dial on my cell because I know they'll always come through and can easily work around my clients' schedules.


I'm not usually around when they pick up from my clients, so I always ask them how things went when they came by. I hear things like "they worked so quickly", or "I didn't have to pick up a single thing, they did all the heavy lifting", or "they were so nice I'd certainly use them again".


I'm big on recycling and stress to my clients that we need to not just toss stuff and that it should be reused or recycled. So I prefer JITT over some of the other companies because of their ECOVERY Box which allows them to sort the items to recycle or donate whatever they can.

I believe they've also won the Angie's List Super Service award which is no small feet. Only the best of the best receive that award and it's determined only by subscribers comments. Ok - I think I've said enough. Thanks to AT-DC for featuring such an Eco-Friendly, Local and Family owned company.

These guys are great! I highly recommend them. They are very well priced and super courteous. I, too, use them for clients, and it leaves everyone feeling as if they've done their small part by recycling and supporting a local business. They have been at the DC Green Festival in the past, so look for them next weekend!

Ruthie from Community Forklift here - we're a thrift store for building materials in the DC area. The folks at the Junk In the Trunk have been fantastic supporters of our nonprofit since we opened three years ago.

Not only do they regularly bring us donations of kitchen cabinets, chandeliers, lumber, and other building materials from clients who are cleaning out garages or finishing renovations...but they also donate their hauling services to us!!! Trust me, a thrift store like ours ends up with a lot of broken mirrors and toilets and windows to get rid of! All we have to do is call, and they take it away as quickly and pleasantly as if we were paying customers. This has saved our small nonprofit probably thousands of dollars as we've grown - no small thing for a shoestring budget like ours.

They also never hesitate to spread the word about us, or to donate prizes for our silent auction fundraisers. I love these folks!
