Two of the biggest names in junk removal — 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King — operate in Las Vegas. They have big marketing budgets and national name recognition. So why do so many Las Vegas residents choose a local company instead? Here's the honest breakdown.
You Talk to a Real Las Vegas Person — Not a National Call Center
When you call 1-800-GOT-JUNK, your call routes to a national or regional call center. They take your info, pass it to a local franchise, and you wait. When you call JunkStopper at (702) 824-6219, you talk directly to the Las Vegas crew showing up at your door. Questions answered in seconds, not transferred.
Lower Prices — No Franchise Fees Passed On to You
1-800-GOT-JUNK is a franchise. Every local franchise owner pays ongoing royalties to the national company — and those costs get built into your price. Their average Las Vegas job costs $240 and full truckloads run $700–$1,000.
JunkStopper has zero franchise fees. We keep our overhead lower and prices lower. We back it up: show us any written estimate from a licensed competitor and we beat it — and give you an extra $25 off on top.
Junk King Claims to Beat Any Estimate — We Do It and Go Further
Junk King's selling point is their price-match guarantee and trucks that are 20% bigger. We match that and go further: we beat any written estimate plus add $25 off, every time. No negotiating, no conditions.
Same-Day, Evening, and Weekend Availability
Both franchise companies offer same-day service — so do we. And we take evening and weekend appointments that the big guys often can't accommodate. Las Vegas schedules don't always fit 9-to-5. We work around yours.
Eco-Friendly: We Donate and Recycle 60%+ of Every Haul
We partner with local Las Vegas donation centers and recycling facilities to keep as much as possible out of the landfill. Furniture, appliances, electronics, and household goods get a second life whenever possible. Both franchise companies talk about recycling — we make it a core part of every job.
Licensed, Insured, and Background-Checked — Every Time
Every JunkStopper crew member is background-checked. Our business is fully licensed and insured in the state of Nevada. You know exactly who is at your home. No subcontractors, no surprises.
$25 Off When You Book Online
