Our work in Wayzata

Junk removal in Wayzata means hauling everything from a single recliner to a full garage cleanout, and Junk Genius has been doing exactly that across the western Twin Cities suburbs for about 15 years. We're licensed in Minnesota (license #3772090-2), and our 4.9-star rating across 1,987 Google reviews isn't something we earned by cutting corners. If you've got something in Wayzata that needs to go, call (612) 444-5865 and we'll get it scheduled fast.

Wayzata sits right on Lake Minnetonka, and we know what that means: older homes with decades of basement accumulation, boat-adjacent gear that's been sitting in garages since the Clinton administration, and seasonal cleanouts that pile up faster than most people expect. We serve Wayzata and the surrounding Lake Minnetonka corridor regularly, which means we're not driving from the far end of the metro. Shorter drive, faster arrival, and a crew that knows the neighborhood.

What We Haul

From Wayzata Garages to Lakeside Sheds, We Take It All

If it fits in a truck, we'll haul it. If it doesn't, we'll figure it out.

Wayzata homes tend to hold onto things. A house that's been in the family for thirty years collects fast. Old patio sets, broken appliances, mattresses stacked in the basement, gym equipment nobody touched after January. We've seen it all, and we don't judge any of it. Our household junk removal service handles the full spectrum: furniture, appliances, electronics, yard debris, and the random pile of 'I'll deal with this later' stuff that never got dealt with. We also handle specialty items like hot tub removal (very common on Lake Minnetonka properties) and shed removal and teardown when a backyard structure has finally outlived its usefulness. One call covers it.

Local Knowledge

Why Wayzata Homeowners Keep Calling Us Back

National franchise junk removal companies operate on volume and call centers. You call, someone three states away schedules a truck, and whoever shows up has never been to Wayzata in their life. That's not how we work. Mike Reimann started Junk Genius about 15 years ago, and his name is still on the truck. We're not a franchise; we're a Twin Cities crew that's been hauling in Hennepin County for sixteen years. Wayzata has a mix of older lakeside properties and newer construction, and the cleanout needs are different depending on the house. We've done enough attic and garage cleanouts in this part of the metro to know what we're walking into. Honestly, a lot of competitors won't give you a straight answer about what something will cost until they're standing in your driveway. We'll talk through it on the phone first.

What We Haul Away

Services Available to Wayzata Properties

Garage Cleanouts

Full garage cleanouts are one of our most requested jobs. We clear everything you don't want, sort what can be donated, and leave the space empty and swept.

Appliance Removal

Old fridges, washers, dryers, and ovens. We handle disconnection and haul them out without scratching your floors. Appliances get routed to certified recycling when possible.

Furniture Removal

Sofas, mattresses, bed frames, dressers. We carry bulky furniture out of tight spaces without making you disassemble anything first.

Hot Tub Removal

Lake Minnetonka properties with aging hot tubs need real equipment and a crew that knows how to break them down safely. We do this regularly in the Wayzata area.

Yard Debris Removal

Storm debris, old landscaping materials, brush piles, and tire removal and recycling for anything that's been sitting in the yard too long.

Estate and Full-Property Cleanouts

Inherited a Wayzata property and need it cleared quickly? We handle full estate cleanouts with care and move fast when there's a closing date on the calendar.

The Eco Side

Most of What We Haul Doesn't End Up in a Landfill

We donate and recycle as much as we can whenever possible. That number is something we actually track, not just a line we put on a website. Furniture in decent shape goes to people who need it. Electronics get routed to certified e-waste processors. Appliances get disassembled and the metal recovered. We're not perfect, and some things genuinely have to go to the dump. But we don't take the lazy route by default. If you've got items you're hoping find a second home instead of a landfill, tell us when you call. We'll let you know what's realistic.

Real Reviews

What Customers Say About the Crew

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+.
Colin Joyce: 5 Stars
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: 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.
Lisa Laughlin: 5 Stars
Lester and Neil were quick and efficient. Super friendly. Great company! Easy scheduling and great communication. Can't beat the value.

Common Questions

Wayzata Junk Removal: What People Ask Us

How quickly can you do a junk removal job in Wayzata?
Most Wayzata jobs get scheduled within the same week you call, and many go same-day depending on our route. We're open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., so weekend pickups are real, not a call-center promise. The further out you're planning, like an estate cleanout tied to a closing date, the more lead time helps. But if something needs to go fast, call (612) 444-5865 and we'll tell you exactly what's available.
Do you handle hot tub removal from Lake Minnetonka area properties?
Yes, and it comes up often. Wayzata and the surrounding Lake Minnetonka communities have a lot of older hot tubs that have outlived their usefulness and become expensive yard obstacles. Hot tub removal requires breaking the unit down on-site before it can be loaded, and our crew handles that as a standard part of the job. We'll give you an accurate quote over the phone once we know the size and what's around it.
Can you clean out a Wayzata garage that's been packed for years?
A packed garage is one of the most common calls we get in the Wayzata area, and it's never as complicated as it looks once we start. We sort as we go, pulling out anything that can be donated or recycled before loading the truck. Our attic and garage cleanout service is built for exactly this situation. The crew is efficient. A two-car garage that's floor-to-ceiling full typically takes two to three hours from start to finish.
What items won't you remove from a Wayzata home?
We don't haul hazardous materials: paint cans, propane tanks, gasoline, pesticides, asbestos-containing materials, or anything that requires a hazmat permit to transport. Most household junk falls nowhere near that category, but if you're unsure about a specific item, call us before we arrive and we'll tell you straight. We'd rather set expectations honestly than show up and leave something behind without warning.
Is Junk Genius a locally owned company or a franchise operating in Wayzata?
Locally owned. Mike Reimann founded Junk Genius about 15 years ago, and it's been Minnesota-grown the entire time. There's no franchise agreement, no call center in another state, and no investor group setting the rules. MN license #3772090-2 is on file if you want to verify it. When you call, you're reaching the actual business that will show up at your Wayzata property, not a scheduler routing you to a subcontracted crew.
How does Wayzata junk removal pricing work?
Pricing depends on how much space your load takes up in the truck. A single couch is a fraction of the cost of a full garage cleanout, which is a fraction of what a complete estate cleanout might run. We don't publish rates because the range is genuinely wide depending on volume, access, and item type. Every job is different. Contact Junk Genius for an accurate estimate, or read more about the value of professional removal vs. DIY if you're still deciding.
