Hi, I’m Austin, the owner of Kraken Junk Removal—a locally owned, family-run business based right here in Johnson City, TN. I started Kraken Junk Removal with a simple goal: to provide honest, affordable junk removal services that make clearing out clutter easy and stress-free for our community.
We help homeowners, businesses, landlords, and property managers with everything from furniture and appliance removal to large-scale estate and property cleanouts. Every job is handled with clear communication, dependable service, and care for your home or property.
Because we’re not a franchise, we keep our overhead low and pass the savings directly to our customers. We also proudly offer discounts for military members, first responders, and seniors. When you choose Kraken Junk Removal, you’ll always receive upfront, all-inclusive pricing with no hidden fees—and service you can trust from a local business that takes pride in doing things the right way.
Kraken Junk Removal handles the removal of heavy, bulky, and hard-to-deal-with items that most people can’t—or shouldn’t—move on their own. That includes everyday household items, oversized furniture, and large loads from cleanouts that require planning, equipment, and care.
We regularly remove items like couches, mattresses, appliances, exercise equipment, electronics, scrap metal, construction debris, and accumulated junk from garages, basements, sheds, and entire homes. We also handle full property cleanouts for move-outs, estates, renovations, and rentals—where timelines matter and details can’t be missed.
Every job includes proper lifting, safe loading, and responsible disposal. Items are sorted for recycling or donation whenever possible, and the rest is hauled away legally and responsibly. Whether it’s a single heavy item or a full truckload, we treat every job the same way—careful, organized, and done right the first time.
Every junk removal job is different, but the way we approach our work stays the same. These are the principles we follow on every pickup, whether we’re removing a single item or clearing out an entire property.
🏡 Community Focused – We live and work right here in the Tri-Cities. That means showing up on time, respecting our neighbors’ property, and making the effort to donate usable items locally instead of dumping everything.
🤝 Built on Integrity – We honor our quotes. The price we give is the price you pay unless the scope changes—and if it does, we explain it before moving forward. No pressure, no surprise charges.
🌱 Environmentally Responsible – We sort loads when possible, recycle what we can, and handle disposal the right way. It takes more effort, but it’s part of doing our job responsibly.
⭐ Excellence in Service – From careful lifting to protecting floors, walls, and doorways, we pay attention to the details. We don’t just haul items out—we leave the space cleaner and safer than we found it.
We’re based in Johnson City, TN and proudly serve the surrounding Tri-Cities communities. This is home for us — the same neighborhoods, roads, and local businesses we serve are the ones we live around every day.
