I love to haul away vintage arcade machines. They’re popular among collectors as long as they work.
More than that, I love to make money for our clients when we sell their good stuff and give them money back. That’s popular among everybody, as long as they work.
A nice lady in Great Falls, Virginia contacted us to haul away some of her stuff. Among that stuff was a vintage Popeye Nintendo arcade machine. She paid us $250 to haul away two pickup truck loads of stuff, using our Speedpass link on our website. The normal price for this amount of hauling is $350…
So on the first visit we hauled away some junk, including some carpet, a chair, and some miscellaneous stuff. We left the arcade machine to haul away on the next visit but we did take some photos of it so we could put it up for sale.
I checked online and found this same machine selling for about $400. One guy was asking $2,450, but no one went after it. So I listed her machine on Facebook Marketplace for $795 after plugging the machine in and verifying that it worked. Within 48 hours I had sold it for my asking price.
She got $280 back within 48 hours after only spending $250 on her junk removal job!
Whenever we sell something that we’re hauling away for a customer, they get 35 percent of the sales price as long as we sell it for more than $20. Our client’s share on this one sale was $280! She was thrilled to get the money plus we still have other items to sell!
Welcome to the next generation of junk removal–cash back when we sell your good stuff! (We must be eating our spinach…)
Meet my new friend from Chile. He came here two months ago with his family, but not on a bike. He has four kids, ages six to 14. He needs a bicycle for his wife.
A bike for his wife!
His wife needs a new bicycle. He saw ours on Craigslist. He buys it!
He is looking for another one for his 14-year-old. Also, they want a set of outdoor furniture for their deck.
Furthermore, the customer who had us haul away the bicycle gets 35% of the sales price, or $28. Hence, everybody wins!
This is a good example of how we work. Instead of throwing the bicycle into a landfill, we sell it to someone who could use it. So, it’s a win for the junk removal client, it’s also a win for the buyer, and it’s a win for our company.
We enjoy seeing the smiles on the faces of the people who had this hauled away. We also enjoy seeing the smiles on the faces of the people who buy our items. Finally, we enjoy seeing the smiles on the faces of the people who get a refund back.
The retail price of this bicycle is around $300. His wife gets it for $80. So, that’s one happy wife!

Recycling is important to us at 1-800-Junk-Refund, particularly when it comes to scrap metal. We love to use the boys at Montgomery Scrap on Southlawn Lane in Rockville to recycle our stuff.
We love the folks at Montgomery Scrap. Here they unload a metal milling machine to be recycled. That’s just one example of how we recycle! Wire such as extension cords, stereo wires, television wires, computer wires and the like.
Those of you who live on a farm and may have old farming equipment should call us. We use heavy equipment to haul off large hay balers, fence sections, tractors, plows, levelers, lawn mowers, and the like.
Call us if you have old cars (particularly the ones that someone thinks they are going to restore but never seem to get around to it) that are just taking up room in your driveway or backyard. When in doubt, just call us to find out!
Please call us when you have any questions. Our minimum charge to pick up is $95 with a pick-up truck full running $229 and the equivalent of four pick-up trucks running $595. Just mention this post and get 10% off!
