My first experience using Thumbtack, was beyond my expectations! Matthew called immediately, was kind, professional, friendly and ready to work! He texted to keep me informed of his arrival time, was punctual, loaded up, hauled away and all within a couple hours! Was AMAZING!

So glad I found The Junk Whisperer. Matthew was very professional and kind and quick in removing my furniture from my apartment. I really appreciate his work ethic and will be using him again for future furniture move needs.

They were great. I’ve used them several times since I initially booked. Affordable price. Reliable and punctual. My sister is moving now and d was like we can deal with the junk. I was like no, let’s not deal with the hassle and let them do it. Well worth the cost since it’s so reasonable!
