Junk Nurse: Junk Removal & Dumpster Rentals
We show up on time, handle things with care, and leave the place better than we found it.
💰 Starting at $89
You took a day off. They never showed up.
If you've ever dealt with a junk removal no-show, an inflated bill at the door, or a crew that treated your house like a construction site, you know exactly how this industry operates. Junk Nurse was built to be the opposite of all that.
They Don't Show Up
You took a day off work. You moved things around to make room. Then the truck never came and the phone goes unanswered. This is the #1 complaint in junk removal, and it's unacceptable.
They Don't Respect Your Home
Mud tracked through carpet. Doorframes dinged. Items tossed carelessly when you're not watching. A crew that treats your home like a job site, not someone's house.
The Price Changes at the Door
You were quoted one number on the phone. Then a different, higher number appears when the truck pulls in. The bait-and-switch has become the industry's most common complaint.
Registered Nurse
The name isn't a gimmick. He's an actual nurse.
Alex Welsch has spent 15 years as a registered nurse. He built Junk Nurse on the same principles he uses with every patient: show up when someone needs you, handle everything with care, and leave things better than you found them.
Both industries are built around one thing, helping people through a difficult moment. For Alex, that's not marketing language. It's how he operates every single day.
"I built this business around the things my patients always needed from me: someone who actually shows up, treats them with dignity, and does the job right the first time." Alex Welsch, Owner & Registered Nurse
We handle the stuff nobody else knows what to do with.
From estate cleanouts to the appliance that's been sitting in your garage for three years, if it's too big for the curb, we've got it.
Estate Cleanouts
Clearing a parent's home after a loss or move to assisted living. We handle it with the care and respect the moment deserves. No rush, no careless tossing.
Appliance & Furniture Removal
Old refrigerators, broken sectionals, dead appliances, mattresses. The bulky stuff that's too big for the curb and too worn to donate, but often not trash.
Pre-Sale Cleanouts
Realtor said to clear the basement before photos? We work on your timeline. Same-day and next-day service means you don't miss your listing window.
Garage & Basement Cleanouts
The room that finally broke you. Years of accumulated junk, sorted and removed. We triage what can be recycled or donated, so not everything ends up in a landfill.
We triage before we haul. Items customers assume are garbage, old appliances, broken furniture, exercise equipment, can often be recycled or repurposed. Alex knows what to do with them. That's not a marketing line. It's the part of the job he actually cares most about.
The Junk Nurse Standard
Every job follows the same four steps. No surprises. No shortcuts.
Diagnose
We assess what you have before any quote is given. What can be recycled? What can be donated? What actually needs to go to disposal? You get an honest picture upfront.
Quote
We give you a firm price before the truck is loaded. Not a range. Not a "starting from." A number you can count on, because the price you're quoted is the price you pay.
Remove
We protect your floors, walls, and doorways. We carry everything out, you don't lift a finger. Items are sorted as we load: recycle, donate, or dispose. The right pile for the right item.
Leave it clean
We sweep up before we leave. Every time. A nurse doesn't leave the room worse than they found it, and neither do we.
Real people. Real jobs. Real results.
