Why Us

Our Specialties

  • 🙌 Hassle-Free GARBAGE Removal — Subscription & One-Time Options

    Keep your space clean year-round with our convenient subscription plans, starting at just $58.99/month for 5 large garbage bags (or 1 large 95gal bin) or $78.99/month for 10 large garbage bags (or 2 large 95gal bins). Our team picks up your garbage twice a month. It's perfect for both residential and commercial properties. Our plans ensure your garbage is picked up reliably. If you require more frequent pickups, simply let us know. Need a one-time pickup instead? No problem. It's perfect for when you forgot to put out the garbage for the city and don't want to wait another 2 weeks for pickup, or for items that the city won't take. Our one-time garbage removal starts at $68.99.

  • 💲Affordable JUNK Removal Without Compromise

    At Garbage Junkies, we believe in delivering top-quality service at prices that work for every budget. Whether you’re getting rid of a single item or tackling a full property cleanout, our cost-effective junk removal solutions are designed to give you the best value for your money. One-time pickups normally start at $99, but for a limited time, our minimum pickup fee is just $69. With Garbage Junkies, you’ll always get reliable service, fair pricing, and no hidden fees—just honest work done right. And to give you even more peace of mind, we guarantee to beat any competitor’s written estimate by 10%, provided the competitor is a registered company licensed by the Ministry and fully insured with commercial auto, CGL, and pollution coverage.

  • 🍂 Spring & Fall LEAF Clean-Up

    When the seasons change, leaves and yard waste can quickly take over your property. At Garbage Junkies, we provide complete spring and fall clean-up services for both residential and commercial properties. Our team takes care of everything—collecting and removing all leaves, small branches, and yard waste. Unlike many landscaper companies, we don’t leave several bags piled at your curb for several days waiting for city collection (with limits on how many they’ll even take). Instead, we haul it all away and handle the disposal ourselves, leaving your property spotless and completely mess-free. Enjoy a hassle-free seasonal cleanup with pricing starting at just $149. With our reliable service, you’ll have a fresh, tidy yard ready for the season ahead.

  • 🛡️ Fast, Reliable & Fully Insured Junk Removal

    At Garbage Junkies, we offer quick and dependable garbage & junk removal, including same-day service when needed — perfect for busy schedules or urgent cleanups. We’re also fully insured and certified, giving you total peace of mind. Our credentials include: Ministry of Environment Certification, Commercial Liability Insurance, CVOR certificate and WSIB Coverage. Why Does This Matter? When you hire a fully insured and certified company like Garbage Junkies, you’re protected. If an accident were to happen on your property, you’re not liable — unlike with uninsured or unlicensed operators. Don’t take that expensive risk, especially these days with scams on the rise. Skip the headache and call our professional, covered, and qualified team today!

How do you determine pricing for your services?

Our pricing is based on the volume of space your items occupy in the back of our compactor bin, as well as the weight & time required for loading. Curbside pickups (and also driveway & garage pickups) offer the best pricing as their load time is very minimal. Our minimum pickup pricing starts at just $58.99 for our subscription plan or just $68.99 for one-time pickups - the most affordable in the GTA, especially from a fully insured & certified company! We offer transparent and upfront pricing before commencing any work to ensure there are no unexpected costs. Please contact us to discuss the specifics of your project. We beat any competitors written estimate by 10%! A competitor is any company that is registered, licensed by the ministry & fully insured (ie. commercial auto, CGL & pollution) to operate their business.
