Junk Removal & Hauling

"Junk removal near me" gets searched 40,000 times a day in the US. The hauler in the top 3 on Google fills their truck twice before noon.

Junk removal is a pure search-driven business. Customers decide in minutes, book same-day, and never come back — which means you need a constant stream of new customers finding you first on Google. We build the system that makes that happen.

Three reasons your trucks aren't full every day of the week.

01
You're Losing to a Franchise on Google
1-800-GOT-JUNK and similar franchises spend millions building national brand recognition and local search authority in every market they enter. When someone searches "junk removal near me," they show up first. You're a better operator with lower prices and faster service — but none of that matters if customers never find you. We close the Google gap so your name appears above the franchise in your own backyard.
02
No Repeat Business Means Empty Days Without New Customers
Most junk removal customers use you once and never again — a garage cleanout, a move-out haul, an estate clearing. That means your revenue depends entirely on a constant flow of new customers. Without a reliable system generating fresh bookings every week, one slow week turns into two, and you're scrambling to fill the schedule. We build the pipeline that keeps new customers coming in on autopilot.
03
No Online Booking Means Missed Jobs
A customer ready to book at 9 PM on a Tuesday doesn't want to call — they want to click a button, pick a time slot, and get a confirmation. If your only booking method is a phone call during business hours, you're losing every customer who searches on evenings and weekends. An embedded online booking widget captures those jobs automatically and puts money in your calendar while you sleep.
How it works

Three Steps to Filling Your Trucks Every Day of the Week

No agency jargon. No mystery deliverables. We show you the gaps in your Google presence on day one and start filling your calendar in week two.

Step 01

We Audit Your Online Presence — Free

We review your Google Business Profile, your Map Pack position for "junk removal near me" and "same-day hauling [city]," your current rating versus the franchise competitors in your area, and where your Thumbtack and Nextdoor presence stands. You leave the call knowing exactly which channels are losing you jobs — before you spend a dollar.

Step 02

We Build Your Growth Engine in 30 Days

Full GBP optimization with all load types listed and service areas mapped, online booking widget live on your site or a hosted page, Thumbtack profile built and optimized, Google Ads campaign targeting high-intent searches in your zip codes, and automated review requests firing after every completed job — all operational within 30 days.

Step 03

You Get Leads. We Keep Improving.

Track every booking, every review, and every ranking in your live dashboard. We manage your Nextdoor presence, optimize your ads monthly, and keep your GBP updated with seasonal services. Most clients hit Map Pack within 28 days and 4× their weekly bookings by month three — one of our Portland clients bought a third truck at month five.

★★★★★

"We were doing 6 jobs a week and spending half my time on the phone taking bookings. AVBOOST got us into the Map Pack in three weeks and set up the online booking so customers schedule themselves. Three months later we're at 24 jobs a week — and I barely touch the phone for bookings anymore. We bought our third truck at month five because we had to."

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost, and am I locked into a contract?

Pricing depends on your market and which channels you need, but plans start around a flat monthly fee with no setup charges. There are no long-term contracts. You stay because the trucks are full, not because a contract traps you. If it ever stops working, you give 30 days' notice and walk. We map exact numbers on your free audit call once we see your area.

How long until I start seeing more bookings come in?

We build your full system within the first 30 days, including GBP optimization, online booking, Thumbtack, and Google Ads. Most junk removal clients reach the Map Pack within about 28 days, and ads can start driving same-day jobs the first week they go live. Local SEO compounds, so the steady flow of new bookings typically builds month over month rather than overnight.

What do you actually do for my junk removal business each month?

We optimize your Google Business Profile for load types like furniture, appliance, and estate cleanouts, run a booking widget so customers schedule without calling, manage your Thumbtack and Nextdoor presence, and run Google Ads on high-intent searches. After every completed haul, an automatic text requests a review. You see bookings, reviews, and rankings in a monthly dashboard.

How are you different from a big agency or just doing it myself?

Big agencies hand junk haulers a generic template and a junior account rep. We focus only on local service businesses and know exactly where 1-800-GOT-JUNK outranks you and how to close that gap. Doing it yourself means learning GBP, ads, and review systems while you are out running jobs. We handle the marketing so you can stay on the trucks.

Can you really get my name above 1-800-GOT-JUNK and the other franchises?

The franchises spend heavily on national brand authority, so beating them takes a deliberate local strategy, not luck. We optimize your GBP for every service category, build out service areas, fire review requests after each job, and run targeted ads in your zip codes. Most clients reach the top three of the Map Pack within about 28 days, which is where the franchise usually sits.

What is the first step to get started?

It starts with a free 20-minute strategy call. We audit your Google Business Profile, check your Map Pack position for searches like same-day hauling in your city, and compare your rating against the franchise competitors nearby. You leave knowing exactly which channels are costing you jobs before spending a dollar. If it fits, we begin building your system within 30 days.
