Our work in Shoreview
Shoreview homeowners searching for junk removal don't have to sort through national call centers or wonder who's actually showing up. Junk Genius has been hauling junk across the Twin Cities for about 15 years, and we've earned 1,987 five-star Google reviews doing it. Mike Reimann's name is on the truck. MN License #3772090-2 is in the footer. When you call (612) 444-5865, you're talking to a local crew that can get to Shoreview fast. Not a scheduling bot routing your job to whoever's available.
Shoreview sits about 10 miles north of Minneapolis, and Junk Genius runs jobs up the 35E corridor regularly. Whether you're off Hodgson Road, near Rice Creek Regional Trail, or clearing out a property on the west side of the city toward Arden Hills, we know the area. Same-week scheduling is standard. If your situation's urgent, call us and we'll tell you straight what we can do. We've handled everything from single-couch pickups in Shoreview to full garage cleanouts on properties prepping for sale, and we'll haul out that old fridge too.
Shoreview Specifics
What We See on Shoreview Jobs
Shoreview's housing stock skews toward mid-century builds and 1980s-era ramblers, which means garages stuffed with decades of tools, seasonal gear, and furniture that's been sitting since the last big family move. We see a lot of that. We also handle cleanouts on properties near Rice Creek and around the Victory Memorial area where homeowners are upsizing, downsizing, or dealing with an inherited home.
One thing worth knowing: Shoreview's curbside pickup doesn't take most large items, and Ramsey County drop-off has limits on appliances and electronics. That's where junk removal makes real sense, one call, and we load it, haul it, and sort what goes where. If you've been looking at a pile in the garage or a basement full of junk that nobody in the house wants to touch, we're the call that actually solves it. We're not going to suggest a dumpster rental when a full-service pickup is faster and costs less for most residential jobs, and we'll tell you which one fits your situation before you commit to anything.

Brent Neveau: 5 Stars
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+.
Diane Hansmeier: 5 Stars
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: 5 Stars
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: 5 Stars
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!

Common Questions
Shoreview Junk Removal: Questions We Hear All the Time
How fast can Junk Genius get to a Shoreview address?
Shoreview is about 10 miles north of Minneapolis, and Junk Genius runs regular routes up the 35E corridor. Most Shoreview jobs land on the schedule within the same week. Time-sensitive situations are worth a direct call to (612) 444-5865, same-day pickup happens often enough that it's always worth asking.
What large items won't Shoreview's curbside pickup accept that Junk Genius will take?
Ramsey County curbside excludes most appliances, electronics, mattresses, and oversized furniture. Junk Genius handles all of those. We manage disposal fees, recycling requirements for electronics, and county regulations so Shoreview customers don't have to research each item separately. If you're not sure whether something qualifies, a quick call will get you a straight answer.
Does Junk Genius do full estate or inherited-home cleanouts in Shoreview?
Yes, and it's one of the jobs we're asked to do most. Shoreview has a lot of mid-century and 1980s homes where estates involve decades of accumulated furniture, tools, and household goods. You don't need to pre-sort anything. The crew assesses the space, separates recyclable and donatable items from disposal, and hauls everything out. Set a date and let us handle the rest.
Can Junk Genius remove a hot tub from a Shoreview backyard?
Yes. Hot tub removal requires disassembly and more than a two-person lift, and it's a job we handle in the metro regularly. If you've got a hot tub, shed, or large outdoor structure at a Shoreview property, describe it when you call. We'll tell you exactly what the job involves and what it'll cost before you commit to anything.
What does Junk Genius do with items hauled from Shoreview homes: do they just go to a landfill?
We donate and recycle as much as we can whenever possible. Appliances and electronics go through certified processors. Furniture in good shape gets matched with organizations that need it. The crew holds certifications in Recycling Management and Waste Management Safety. Responsible disposal isn't a marketing line. It's built into every job.
Does Junk Genius handle carpet removal after a Shoreview flooring replacement?
They do. Carpet is one of those items most haulers won't touch after a flooring job. It can't go in the trash, and most curbside programs exclude it. Junk Genius handles carpet removal and recycling as a standalone service. If you're redoing floors in a Shoreview home, add it to your quote when you call.

Is there a dumpster rental option for DIY Shoreview cleanout projects?
Yes. If you'd rather sort and load things yourself on your own timeline, dumpster rental is a separate option. It makes sense for larger renovation projects or situations where the work stretches across multiple days. For most residential Shoreview cleanouts, though, full-service pickup is faster and often costs less when you factor in your own time. Call and describe your project and we'll tell you which fits better.
