Ever wonder where your old couch, broken appliances, or garage clutter ends up? At GoGo Junk Removal, we believe in responsible disposal. Here's exactly what happens after we load up the truck.
Our Commitment to the Community
As a Black-owned business serving Metro Atlanta since 2017, we take our responsibility to the community seriously. That means not just hauling your junk away, but making sure it goes to the right place—whether that's a new home, a recycling facility, or as a last resort, a landfill.
Recycled
Metals, electronics, cardboard
Donated
Furniture, clothing, household goods
Disposed
Only what can't be reused
Step 1: Sorting at Our Facility
After we pick up your items, we don't just drive straight to the dump. We bring everything back to sort through. Our team separates items into categories: donatable, recyclable, and disposable. This extra step takes time, but it's the right thing to do.
Step 2: Donations to Local Charities
Items in good condition get a second life. We partner with:
- Goodwill Industries – Furniture, clothing, household items, and working electronics
- Habitat for Humanity ReStore – Building materials, appliances, cabinets, and home improvement items
- Local shelters and nonprofits – Clothing, bedding, and essential household goods
When you use GoGo Junk Removal, your unwanted items can help a family furnish their first home or support job training programs in our community.
Step 3: Recycling What We Can
Many items can't be donated but shouldn't go to a landfill either. We recycle:
- Scrap metal – Old appliances, metal furniture frames, pipes, and fixtures
- Electronics – TVs, computers, and other e-waste go to certified recyclers
- Cardboard and paper – Boxes and packaging materials
- Mattresses – Many components can be recycled (foam, metal springs, fabric)
- Appliances – Refrigerants are safely removed, and metals are recycled
Step 4: Responsible Disposal
Some items simply can't be donated or recycled—broken furniture, construction debris, or items in poor condition. These go to licensed disposal facilities. We follow all local regulations and never illegally dump.
Why This Matters
Choosing a junk removal company that prioritizes responsible disposal makes a real difference:
- Less landfill waste – Keeps usable items out of the ground
- Community support – Donations help local families and nonprofits
- Environmental protection – Proper recycling reduces pollution
- Feel-good factor – Know your stuff is going to good use
Tax-Deductible Donation Receipts
When we donate your items to our charity partners, we can provide documentation for your tax records. Just ask when you schedule your pickup!
The GoGo Difference
Not all junk removal companies take the time to sort, donate, and recycle. Many just dump everything to save time. At GoGo Junk Removal, we believe in doing things the right way—for our customers, our community, and our environment.
