Junk It in the Media: Junk Raiders

Junk Raiders Cast

Junk Raiders is a reality television show that airs on the Discovery Channel in Canada and Ion Television in the United States. The show features a team of seven people with one goal: renovate a downtown Toronto factory into a high-end loft. The catch is that they only have one month and $5000 to do it!

It’s a process that is as difficult as it sounds.

When the Junk Raiders needed a disposal bin, they called Junk It. In episode three of the series they cleaned out the factory, throwing out a large amount of construction material and waste. Junk It was there to provide the dumpster. Since the team had a very small budget and a tight time frame to complete their task, it was important to them that the junk disposal was fast, efficient and affordable.

Junk It was able to get on site quickly and the cost of the disposal bin left the team with most of their budget intact.

The team went on to completely renovate the space. Many of the materials they used were recycled from those who no longer wanted them.

Some other interesting facts about the Junk Raiders TV show:

In order to prepare for the show and have enough free materials to complete the job, the team set up a junk hot line and requested donations from the people of Toronto
Going through people’s trash to salvage for items is illegal in Toronto. The show received a special exemption to do so.
The team was made up of seven people. Two were considered “freecyclers” and they focused on saving, recycling and salvaging materials whenever possible. The other five members were termed “wasters.” They consisted of the owner of an electronics store, an interior designer, a general contractor, a labourer and a builder.

The show is available to watch online on the Discovery Channels website:

Water Footprint

What is a water footprint?

People use lots of water for drinking, cooking and washing, but even more for producing things such as food, paper, cotton clothes, etc. The water footprint is an indicator of water use that looks at both direct and indirect water use of a consumer or producer. The water footprint of an individual, community or business is defined as the total volume of freshwater that is used to produce the goods and services consumed by the individual or community or produced by the business.

Pint of Beer

Now there are even more reasons to feel guilty about drinking beer. I takes 75 litres of water to produce one 250 ml glass of beer. That is amazing.

Moving is difficult. It’s a long process and it usually involves heavy lifting, not to mention organization and time management. Yes, you can hire a moving company to physically transport your items for you, but you still have to organize them and pack them up. Plus, the more you have, the more work you have to do. This is especially true when you’ve lived in a home for a long time.

Junk removal Toronto can make the moving process much easier. If you have less stuff in your house, you have less to pack, you have less to move and you have less to unpack later! Plus, you’ll be moving into your new home without all of the clutter that plagued your last place.

And don’t worry, adding junk removal Toronto services to your moving plan won’t add stress during this very busy time. You can choose to have a full service junk removal team come to your home, dispose of whatever you no longer need and take all of your junk away while you focus on more important matters.

Just think, all of that old furniture sitting in your basement could be gone. So could the outdated or broken appliances that are cluttering up your cabinets, the piles of old and worn clothing in your closets and the stacks of papers and magazines that make your garage look terrible. There’s no need to bring these items to your new home and there’s no time to stress about what to do with them. Hire a junk removal company and say goodbye!

Junk It! offers full service junk removal that is efficient, affordable and easy. Just tell us what to get rid of, and we’ll make sure it’s gone You only pay for the time it takes to remove the items and the space they take up in our trucks.

We typically recycle 60% of the items we’re hired to remove.

Here are a few HomeStars comments from Junk It customers:

“I called Junk It and I was completely WOWED by the service.

I talked to two individuals in their office to book the job. Alex and Brendan were extremely friendly, knowledgeable and professional. The booking was very easy and efficient.

The crew showed up right on time. They gave me a fair estimate and then removed the junk. They were very friendly and helpful. They told me that a lot of the material would be donated. I really liked this since it would not be going into a landfill.

I am going to call Junk It again. I highly recommend this company to anyone who needs junk removal.”

- Vivian, Toronto

“I usually do not write testimonials or reviews but I had to in this situation.

I shopped around quite extensively to get my junk removed. When I called Junk It, they were extremely helpful, knowledgeable and friendly over the phone.

The crew showed up on time and again they were friendly and just nice guys.

All my junk was removed at a reasonable price. Quick, easy and it was gone.

I am a customer service manager for a well known company and I was blown away on how professional and customer focused this company was. So many companies promise this yet few deliver.

Junk It delivered and exceeded my expectations. I will definitely call them again.”

- Larry in Highpark

“The guys who came to remove our junk were great! They gave us a good price upfront and then removed everything in record time. We received a quote from another popular junk removal company and their quote was almost double what Junk It’s was. I am very happy that I used Junk It and would absolutely use them again if necessary.”

- Angela, Rosedale

With the self service option, you can rent one of our disposal bins and get to work! We offer disposal bins in a variety of sizes as well as dumpsters and mini bins. Our bin rental service allows you to quickly and easily dispose of your garbage yourself. It’s the most affordable junk removal option available.

Our waste disposal bins are available in four sizes (5, 10, 15 and 20 cubic yards.) They have low walls and walk-in access so they are easy to load. Our garbage bin rentals are also driveway friendly so they won’t damage your property. Once you’ve chosen a bin size, you’re on your way! Just fill the bin and enjoy your new, clean home!

With our full service option, we handle everything for you! A Junk It truck will pull up to your property and our experienced junk removal team will get to work. We remove almost anything, from furniture to clothing to appliances to renovation waste! We only pick up non-hazardous material because we are licensed by the Ministry of Environment. (MOE).

You can trust Junk It to dispose of your unwanted items safely, efficiently and affordably. Furniture removal, appliance removal and garbage removal are just a few of the services we offer. Contact us for further details.

When our team arrives, they look through your junk and determine whether or not the material you’re getting rid of can be recycled.

Some examples of materials we can recycle are furniture, appliances and construction waste. We strive to recycle as much as possible and we typically recycle up to 60% of all material we pick-up.

We take whatever items we can to various not-for-profit services such as the Salvation Army, Goodwill and Habitat for Humanity to name a few.

Whatever junk cannot be recycled is taken a facility that is approved by the Ontario Ministry of Environment. This ensures that the junk will be handled responsibly and safely.

Junk It is dedicated to junk removal. We service Toronto, Hamilton, York, Mississauga, Georgetown, Oakville, Brampton, Ajax, Milton, Maple, Pickering, Richmond Hill, Vaughan, Stouffville and the surrounding regions.
