Position title
Junior Operations and Customer Support Role
Description

When our Founder, Nathan Schweid began hauling junk with his dad's 1998 Ford Ranger pickup truck while finishing up college at the University of Colorado Boulder, his vision at the time wasn’t anything other than to help out his neighbors and save a few extra bucks along the way.

Fast forward 6 years and The Junk Trunk team has evolved into a leading force within the junk removal industry. Our mission driven approach to business and how we choose to operate has led us to consistently find ways to exceed and evolve the industry standard.

It’s simple: we focus on people (our customers, community and staff alike) and our planet. Any productive movement starts with quality people. That’s why we partner with organizations within the greater Denver community to employ members of their sober living communities, as well as finding employment opportunities for those that have recently come out of incarceration. But how do we help the planet? It’s our mission to find new homes for our customers' old memories. We work extremely closely with Habitat for Humanity to find your items a second chance to spruce up someone else's home.
