1-800-GOT-JUNK? is a Canadian-origin junk removal service brand headquartered in Vancouver and founded by Brian Scudamore in 1989. It primarily operates through a franchise network serving residential and commercial customers. Its service model generally involves booking, vehicle-based collection, removal of unwanted items, and subsequent sorting or disposal. The brand is recognizable for its telephone-style name, blue removal trucks, and standardized customer-service process. In addition to Canada and the United States, it has operated in Australia and the United Kingdom. Because the business is privately held, publicly verifiable information about its financial performance, ownership, and current executives is limited.

1-800-GOT-JUNK? was founded in Canada in 1989 by Brian Scudamore. Beginning with a local demand for junk removal, the brand expanded through a franchise-based operating model. Its core business is not the sale of standardized goods but scheduled on-site removal services for households, offices, and other commercial customers. As its network grew, the brand used a consistent name, vehicle identity, and service process to support operations across regions, expanding into the United States and other English-speaking markets. Reliable public information confirms its positioning and principal services, but detailed information about expansion dates, franchise scale, ownership, and financial performance is limited.
