The Junkluggers of the Jersey Shore

Megan Duffy

About The Owner:

Megan Duffy was born in Toms River but grew up on a horse farm in Wall Township where she learned how to ride horses, give pony cart rides, wrangle wild bulls on occasion and take care of various types of animals and plant life. After graduating from The College of Holy Cross in Massachusetts, Megan started her career in advertising and marketing in NYC where, for the next 20 years, she worked hand in hand with clients on national campaigns and marketing efforts and honed her love of working with people in order to achieve the results they wanted.

In 2006, Megan moved back to the Jersey Shore to give her kids the life and childhood that she so loved growing up there. The idea of running her own business, one that was eco-friendly, socially responsible and focused on giving back to the community, and one that afforded Megan time to be more "present" in her family, was incredibly appealing. What drew her to The Junkluggers specifically was what makes the company stand out against the competition - the absolute emphasis on delivering a higher quality of service in a way that is more environmentally conscious, giving back to the community in several ways, and the sincerity of caring about the customers and their items. As the owner, Megan's goal is to bring this fresh way of looking at item removal to her community, being able to offer a "second life" when possible to customer's possessions through donation, and to have her business serve as a positive example in her community!
