What Happens to the Junk?

For over 20 years as 1-800-GOT-JUNK? throughout Western Washington, we have made our best efforts to upcycle the items that we collect from our customers' homes and businesses. 

In 2024 we decided to take it a step further, creating a separate business called the RePurpose Center. Created to minimize the amount of junk going into landfills, and it has expanded greatly.

RePurpose Center provides the facilities and staff which devote full-time attention to sorting, salvaging, and repurposing the items 1-800-GOT-JUNK? collects.

Revenue from resale and recycling has allowed us to increase our footprint, and hire staff. Additionally, RePurpose Center has established relationships with local charities, non-profits, and communities that repurpose items we collect from our clients.
