Our work in Excelsior

Junk removal in Excelsior, MN moves fast when you call a crew that already knows the area. Junk Genius has been hauling for Twin Cities homeowners for about 15 years, and with 4.9 stars across 1,987 Google reviews, the track record speaks for itself. One call to (612) 444-5865 gets you a free quote and a scheduled pickup, often within the same week. Don't let a garage full of old furniture or a basement stuffed with things you'll 'deal with later' eat up another season.

Excelsior sits right on the western shore of Lake Minnetonka, and we're out here regularly. Whether you're in a lakeside home clearing out decades of accumulated gear, getting a property ready to list, or just finally tackling the stuff the previous owner left behind, Junk Genius handles the heavy lifting. We serve Excelsior and the surrounding communities including Minnetonka, Golden Valley, and St. Louis Park. We donate and recycle as much as we can whenever possible.

What We Haul

Every Kind of Junk Excelsior Homes Produce

From a single sofa to a full property cleanout, one call covers it all.

Excelsior homes, especially the older ones near the lake, tend to collect things over the years. Boat gear that never made it back to the water. Appliances pushed to the garage when the kitchen got updated. Furniture from three owners ago. We haul all of it. Household junk removal is the core of what we do, but we also handle the jobs that take a little more muscle: hot tub removal, appliance disposal, mattress pickup, and full attic and garage cleanouts. If you're clearing out a storage unit or dealing with a hoarding situation, we do that too. No job gets subcontracted out to a stranger. The crew that shows up is the crew you talked to.

Seasonal Cleanouts

Spring and Fall Are the Busiest Times in Excelsior

Lake Minnetonka living is great right up until you realize the dock equipment, the off-season water toys, and the patio furniture that never quite made it inside have taken over your garage. Spring is when Excelsior homeowners open the garage door and realize the winter didn't solve anything. Fall is when the yard debris piles up faster than anyone wants to deal with it. Both seasons, we're busy out here. If you're thinking about a cleanout, don't wait until the schedule fills up. And honestly, winter's not a bad time either. Check out why winter is actually a smart time for a home cleanout if you're on the fence. We run seven days a week, so whenever you're ready, we're ready.

Customer Reviews

What Real Customers Say About the Crew

Brent Neveau
Sosa and Diego were absolutely amazing. They cleaned out the whole garage in just over an hour. Very professional. Will use them again when needed. A+.
Colin Joyce
Sosa and Diego did a wonderful job! We ended up having more junk than we initially planned, but they were accommodating and kind. They got done very quickly but still managed to do a very thorough job. I would recommend this company.
Diane Hansmeier
I had a few places come do estimates, and Junk Genius was definitely the most reasonable. They were also able to switch our day/time when we had something coming up. Big shout out to Lester and Isaiah! They were friendly, respectful of the space, and incredibly efficient!
Riley Jay
Sosa and Diego did an incredible job on my garage. I had bought a house and the seller had left all sorts of junk in the garage including an old fridge and many mattresses. They were able to work with me to get it done fast and affordably. I will definitely be keeping them in mind for future work.
Dusty Kemmis
Fast and very good communication. Cleaned out some debris I have been looking at for months. Well worth the price for getting it gone quickly. Saved me a day of doing it myself. Thank you!
Lisa Laughlin
Lester and Neil were quick and efficient. Super friendly. Great company! Easy scheduling and great communication. Can't beat the value.

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can Junk Genius get to Excelsior for a pickup?
Most Excelsior jobs get scheduled within the same week, and same-day pickup is sometimes possible depending on what's already on the calendar. We run seven days a week from 7 AM to 8 PM, so weekends work too. Call (612) 444-5865 and we'll tell you exactly what's available. Excelsior is a regular stop for us, so we're not routing around it.
Do you remove old boat equipment and lake gear from Excelsior properties?
Dock hardware, old coolers, busted kayaks, anchors, life jackets that have seen better days, yes, we haul all of that. Lake Minnetonka properties tend to accumulate a specific kind of outdoor gear that doesn't fit in a regular trash bin. If it fits on the truck, it goes. If you're not sure about a particular item, call us before we arrive and we'll give you a straight answer.
What does junk removal cost in Excelsior, MN?
Pricing depends on volume, what you're getting rid of, and how accessible it is. A single piece of furniture sits at one end of the range; a full garage or estate cleanout sits at the other, and the gap between those is wide. We don't publish fixed prices because a quote that doesn't account for your actual job isn't useful to you. Every job is different. Contact Junk Genius - Minneapolis for an accurate estimate by calling (612) 444-5865.
Can you handle a full estate cleanout in Excelsior?
Estate cleanouts are some of the bigger jobs we do, and we're used to them. Whether you've inherited a property near the lake or you're helping a family member move out of a long-term home in Excelsior, we can clear the whole place. We donate items that are still in good shape to local charity partners and recycle what we can. It's not just hauling. We sort as we go. Call to talk through what you've got and we'll give you an honest quote.
Will Junk Genius recycle or donate items from my Excelsior home?
Yes, and it's built into how we operate, not an add-on. We donate and recycle as much as we can whenever possible. Furniture in decent condition goes to local charity partners. Electronics and appliances go through proper recycling channels. If something is still usable, we're not throwing it away just because it's easier. That's been the policy since Mike Reimann started Junk Genius about 15 years ago.
Do you remove hot tubs from Excelsior backyards?
Hot tub removal is a specialty job, and we do it regularly. Old hot tubs are heavy, awkward, and not something a rental truck handles well. Our crew breaks them down on-site and hauls the pieces. If your Excelsior backyard has a hot tub that stopped working three summers ago and has just been sitting there, we can get rid of it. Check out our hot tub removal service for more on how the process works, then call for a quote.
More questions (1)Fewer questions
Can I get a dumpster dropped off in Excelsior instead of a full-service pickup?
If you're doing a longer project and want to fill a container on your own timeline, dumpster rental is the right call instead of full-service hauling. We serve Excelsior with both options. The difference is simple: full service means our crew loads everything; rental means you load it yourself and we pick up the container when you're done. Not sure which fits your project? Call (612) 444-5865 and we'll help you figure it out.
