The Junkluggers Story

From a one-man project to a nationwide franchise

The idea for The Junkluggers came to CEO Josh Cohen like a bolt of lightning while he was studying in Australia during a semester abroad from the University of Connecticut. He and his friends were drinking boxed wine and singing to a friend's guitar when one of them mentioned making $100 for lugging away a neighbor's fridge. Josh then thought, "Hey, I can do that!"

Inspired, Josh built his business from the ground up in 2004, first by borrowing his mom's SUV. Then he added a trailer for bigger jobs, hand-stenciling the company name on the wooden sides his dad helped him build. A year later, Josh purchased Old Rusty, a (mostly) reliable dump truck that wasn't much to look at but got the job done.

From his very first job, it was clear that the "junk" he was hauling away was often so much more than that to his customers. He realized he was often removing memories and items that had a lot of sentimental value. That's why he's passionate about treating their property with care while striving to keep as much of it out of landfills as possible.

Early on, he spent a lot of one-on-one time helping a customer clear out her home to sell after her husband of 48 years passed away. Another client was cleaning out her basement after all her kids had left for college. While Josh carefully carried their belongings up and out, his customers would follow him and talk fondly about the family memories from each box, toy, closet of clothes, or piece of furniture. As they reminisced, he knew in his heart that he couldn't just throw all those memories away. This is where The Junkluggers story began.
