Don't Worry! We're Not Afraid

It's well known around Eugene, Oregon that Junk Munkiez is the go to company for junk, trash, and garbage hauling. Whether the items are in good or bad condition, in or outside your property, up or downstairs, it doesn't matter. We'll haul away just about anything! But what about those refrigerators full of putrid rotting meats? The frigs that smell so bad they'll wake the dead! The answer is yes. Time and time again we've proven that we're not afraid. Even from the down right nasty jobs!

A Eugene resident had a refrigerator in a storage room go out on her while in the hospital. It was off for about two weeks before she finally realized it. The frig contained two large turkeys, several packs of raw steaks and chicken meat and a few other perishable items. It was discovered once the smell started making its way through the air ducts.

Elderly and recently coming out of surgery, she wasn't able to take care of it herself. Understandably too! Luckily, she found us. When arriving to her property and opening the storage room door the odor was immediately noticeable. We opened the refrigerator door to see the contents inside and that's when the smell hits you like a freight train! Your gag reflexes go into over drive so you hold your breath to prevent throwing up. It would be nice just to keep it shut by duct taping it but unfortunately in these scenarios, the frigs must be emptied before hauling away. The weight can become tremendously heavy when full on top of them having to be empty before dumping them at Lane County Waste Management.

To prevent leaks, we triple bagged the contents. The turkeys began deteriorating to the point they were mushy and slimy. This made grabbing a hold of them difficult due to them being slippery. On the bottom was a pool of blood and other juices. Colonies of bacteria could be seen growing on the surface of the pool.

After bagging everything, we successfully removed the appliance and hauled it to the transfer station.

If you have the same scenario then don't fret. Call us at (541)337-0619 for our services.

Junk Munkiez Vision

By now, many Eugene and Springfield, Oregon residents are beginning to understand who we are and what we do. We've been hauling customers' junk to donation, recycling, and to the Lane county dump facilities since June of 2016. We started out very small. We only had one old 1998 Penske moving box van. That had been bought and used by other companies and eventually to a private owner. We bought it from a lady that lived in a tiny town just a few miles North East of Lincoln City called Otis, Oregon. We found her listing on Craigslist and payed her $2,100 to take it off her hands. It wasn't in the best of shape, it had over 297,000 miles, and had some repairs it needed before it was street legal. After spending about $800 to get it up to par we were excited to get to work! Only problem, no one knew who we were! With no experience in business management, marketing, and everything else in between we struggled to find work in the beginning. The Hatcher brothers and Derek

Junk Munkiez Holiday Donations

Junk Munkiez had a goal this last holiday season. To help those in need by bringing the community together. From the 22nd of November til the 24th of December 2018 Junk Munkiez offered free service to those in need! Normally, belongings that are no longer wanted but are still in good condition are donated to accepting donation facilities but we had an idea. What if we could gather a list of names of individuals around Springfield and Eugene, Oregon that were looking for particular goods this holiday season and see if anybody else around town was willing to donate those needed items to them. Junk Munkiez would be the middle man by picking up and delivering them for free. We started the project by publishing and promoting a video on Facebook about our plans and if anyone was interested. Word spread quickly and people began responding. We quickly learned of individuals who are homeless and in need of things as simply as a jacket! Other's were just getting into a home and were i
