A hauling company that looks at the pile before it names a number
Colorado Springs is half a million people on a slope, with a military rotation every summer and a fire season every spring. We run the truck that keeps up with it, and we try to do it the honest way: look, price, let you decide.
Cheyenne Mountain Junk Co. is a locally run junk removal and cleanout service for Colorado Springs and the towns around it, from Fountain and Security-Widefield by Fort Carson to Monument, Falcon, Black Forest, Manitou Springs and up Ute Pass to Woodland Park. It is not a franchise and there is no call center in another state. The phone is answered here, the crews live here, and the truck sleeps here.
We book and manage residential and commercial hauling: furniture, appliances, mattresses, hot tubs, sheds, garages, basements, storage units, estates, hoarding situations, remodel debris, brush and slash, offices and rentals. The work is done by insured, locally registered crews we know and have worked with. Colorado does not issue a junk-removal licence, so we do not claim one; what we claim is liability insurance, a local registration and a crew that shows up when it said it would.
How we try to do it
Look first
No firm price over the phone, ever. The crew sees the load, checks the carry and the stairs, and names the number before anything moves. If you say no, you owe nothing.
Reuse before the landfill
Working furniture, appliances, tools and building material are routed to donation or recycling where possible, because it is right and because it keeps the tipping fee, and your price, down. We don't name a charity partner or promise a percentage; what gets accepted changes week to week.
Say what costs extra, and why
Mattresses, tires, televisions and refrigerant appliances are surcharged by the landfill and the recyclers. Heavy loads cost more than light ones because the dump charges by weight. Those lines are on the quote by name, not folded into a round number.
Answer the phone
Day and night, every day. A person calls back to set the time, usually within the hour. The trucks run seven days a week, through the winter, with an eye on the forecast for the mountain side.
