Junk Dawgs, Indianapolis

Owned and operated by a team of firefighters, veterans, and service members, Fire Dawgs Junk Removal’s signature red truck totes away undesirable clutter from households, businesses, and landscapes. They cart away items such as unwanted projection televisions, washing machines, and tables, leaving fresh space for new possessions or long-term performance art. The company recycles an average of 60% of all the junk it handles, donating appropriate goods to Goodwill, Habitat for Humanity, and the Salvation Army and only turning to garbage dumps as a last resort. When possible, the company retains tax-deductible receipts for donated items, lessening taxes and rewarding customers with additional spending money to save for rainy days or long-awaited clavichord lessons.
