Who We Are
We are a Springfield, Missouri, locally operated family-owned junk removal company. We remove everything you need us to, such as old furniture and appliances, garage items, and renovation debris. When you got junk, we do all the loading, lifting, labor, and disposal with a smile on our face.
We have been doing business in the greater Springfield and Branson area since 1999.
We are called The Junk Pirates because of an eye accident I had many years ago requiring me to wear a patch until my eye healed. My friends started calling me a pirate, and the name stuck.
You can read the whole story here.
Yes, pirates can be scary, but we’re the right kind of pirates, the fun ones, the Disney version, you could say. And the only thing we raid is your junk! Plus, we know how much kids LOVE pirates!
Aaaarrrrgggghhhh!
No, we are an independent family business. We do not have bosses in another country. We are our own bosses serving you right here in Springfield. We know this area, and we know you as our neighbors.
As our local 417 magazine says, when you work with local companies instead of large international corporations, the “money earned here stays here and strengthens our economy.”
What We Do
We remove any junk you need us to remove.
We do all the lifting, including anything that requires over two people to lift. We find it odd that a good deal of junk removal companies don’t remove bulky items. We have a forklift that does the heavy lifting for any bulky items you may have. And you don’t have to do anything.
We remove any items, such as, construction debris, and common household items.
There is nothing you need to do. Just show us the items you want to be removed, and we will do everything else. We will also clean and sweep the area before we leave.
No, we remove items from wherever they are located in your home or business.
Pirates love full house cleanouts, which are frequent requests for evictions and estate sales. We will remove every single item and leave the premises clean.
When you consider renting a dumpster, it is generally because you are involved in a renovation or extensive repair. The thought process is that you will generate large amounts of debris that will pile up quickly.
There are many problems with renting a dumpster. The most dangerous problem is that when you rent a dumpster, you are the one responsible for hauling heavy items yourself. We believe injuring yourself or causing property damage is not worth it.
We solve the problem of considerable amounts of debris accumulating quickly by making scheduled pickups during the process. That way, you don’t have to worry about doing anything yourself except focusing on your renovation.
There are many other issues regarding renting a dumpster that you can read here.
Absolutely! We clean out and remove junk from many properties and locations, including barns, sheds, and construction sites. If it has junk in it, we can clear it out!
We remove all lawn equipment, including lawnmowers, weed wackers, grass trimmers, leaf blowers, or any other gas engine machine you may have regardless of working condition.

Yes, we remove bathtubs, toilets, sinks, fixtures, tiles, plumbing, and anything else you may need removed. And remember, you don’t have to drag any items out in front of your property. We remove your items where they sit. Easy and convenient!
We love real estate agents, and real estate agents love us. Working with real estate agents is a cooperative relationship where we refer and trust each other.
Yes, we are experts in working with large properties, such as apartment complexes.
Being a property manager in Springfield, Missouri, is a challenging, extremely involved job that includes running many aspects of rental properties, including maintenance, handling tenant complaints, and bringing in new tenants for vacant units. When you are transitioning a unit from one tenant to the other, the previous users may leave behind furniture, appliances, and other abandoned junk. Removing it is time-consuming and likely another task to add to the list.
We specialize in hauling all sorts of junk, including what’s left behind in apartments or other rental units. With our simple scheduling system, efficient and friendly workers, and our experience in removing junk, we will assist you with this task in your busy property manager schedule.
We may be pirates, but we don’t search for treasures. We aren’t pickers looking to sell your junk on the side. Our business is raiding junk to remove it out of your way.
How To Start
Call (417) 815-5865 or complete the online form to get on our schedule ASAP. Many times, we can perform a same day service from when you contact us.
Whether you’re from Springfield, Nixa, Republic, Ozark, or any of the communities surrounding Springfield in South West Missouri, The Junk Pirates will travel to your home or place of business and carry off your unwanted items.
You need not be at home when we arrive as long as we have access to where the junk is located. We will call to confirm and coordinate everything with you beforehand.
How You Pay
We offer complimentary, no-obligation estimates before we charge anything. Our pricing differs from most junk removal companies in that we provide 100% transparency with our upfront pricing and free estimates. Before you pay us a dime, you’ll know exactly how much the charge is, and you don’t pay until the junk is loaded and ready to go.
Our volume-based pricing ensures you get the most junk removed for the lowest price. This type of pricing means that we charge by load size—not per item. You simply pay for space the junk takes in our truck(s). So, depending on the amount of junk you need to be removed, we can determine what price point you likely will fall into.
Our pricing differs from most junk removal companies that generally charge by the truckload AND by the hour. We do not charge for labor, having to climb stairs, lift more cumbersome items, or anything else that may be required. Our full-service junk removal service price also includes any disposal fees.
We provide you a fair and upfront price that will never change no matter what we may encounter while removing your items—Guaranteed!
Call (417) 815-5865 or complete the online form. We can give you an estimate on the phone, or come out at no cost and give you an on-site estimate. If you’re satisfied with the price, we’ll haul off your junk. If not, you have no obligation, and we don’t charge for our travel.
Yes, we accept PayPal, unlike other junk removal companies. We also accept all credit cards, debit cards, cash, and checks, Cash App & Venmo.
Why Us
We are licensed, insured, and bonded. We also carry workers’ compensation insurance even though we’re not required to because we care about our customers and employees.
You’re virtually guaranteed to pay more and receive less when you work with a large corporation opposed to a local family-owned business for your junk removal needs.
Since we don’t pay expensive franchise fees, we pass those savings onto you. We also offer a more robust service than a franchise since we can move anything that requires more than two people to lift. We also remove Bio Hazardous Waste that franchises and other junk removal companies do not.
Imagine a franchise junk removal company surveying your items and later informing you they can’t pick up this or that because it’s too heavy or dangerous. It takes strong pirates to handle these things!
