Junkery Bags come flat-packaged for easy carrying and storage. You can carry it folded under your arm and it will easily fit into a car or closet until you’re ready to open it up and use it.
Huh? Absolutely not. Junkery Bags are strictly made for junk removal, you cannot use it as a swimming pool! We’ve actually been asked this question not once, but MANY TIMES!
No! Isn’t that great! Fill the Junkery Bag at your leisure and call and schedule the pickup. Go to work. Go shopping. Go to a movie. Simple as that. No need to wait for us!
However, if you’re not going to be home during the pickup, it would require pre-payment.
Do you know that game at the arcade where a claw tries to pick up stuffed animals? Kind of like that! We have a crane truck that picks up your Junkery Bag and puts it in the back of the truck. We are in and out before you know it!
The Small Junkery Bag will hold up to 2,200lbs – 1 Tonne – 1 Cubic Yard.
The Large Junkery Bag will hold up to 3,300lbs – 1.5 Tonnes – 3 Cubic Yards.
Your Junkery Bag must be placed outside in an area free and clear of any overhead wires or trees and in a place easily accessible by our truck. If you’re unsure, we’re here to help – give us a call!
We live in Nova Scotia – rain happens, but that’s okay! Junkery Bags are designed so water will seep through. You could also put a plastic tarp over the bag.
When you open your Junkery Bag, fold all four corners down and it will hold its shape. Then as you’re filling it up, roll the corners up!
As long as you need, because we know life happens. Work at your own pace and keep the bag for as long as you need. Two years and 10 months is our record so far between someone buying a Junkery Bag and then having it picked up.
If it fits, yes!
The list of what we can take is a really, really big one so instead, it’s easier for us to list what we can’t take because it is dangerous for us and our truck. We cannot take: Paint (empty paint cans are no problem) / Oils / Asbestos / Hazardous Waste (such as weapons-grade plutonium and those types of scary things) / Household Hazardous Waste (HHW)*
*HHW is waste material generated from our homes or companies that pose a risk to health, safety, or the environment. This includes flammable, combustible, corrosive and toxic junk. Properly disposing of HHW products ensures the safety of Nova Scotians now and for generations to come.

“Very impressed with the individuals working at this business. Very friendly, showed up on time and were able to get me a quote within 24 hours for our job. They were also able to come back 2 days later and did an amazing job in the HOT HOT heat. I would absolutely recommend this company.”
Kristy G. - Halifax, Nova Scotia
“I HIGHLY recommend this company. We got the best price and the service was super accommodating and friendly.”
John M. - Halifax, Nova Scotia
“I used Junkery when I emptied my Dad's house. It was the ideal solution for a long, slow process in a house with a shared driveway. A traditional dumpster just wasn't going to work. The people I dealt with were pleasant and helpful. The bags were convenient; easy to use, and held a lot of junk! I will not hesitate to use them again.”
Shelia V.F. - Halifax, Nova Scotia
“LOVE this company! Quoting process was easy. I sent them photos and they got back to me quickly with a price range. Scheduled them in to come by and confirm the estimate. They were on time and stuck to their quote, even gave me the low-end price once they saw the pile of construction debris. The price was great, and before I knew it our junk was gone! Quick and painless. I would recommend this company to anybody! Thanks, Junkery!”
Kim W. - Halifax, Nova Scotia
“Your staff were extremely helpful and polite. The guys who came to collect the bag were very polite and professional. My kids absolutely loved the "crane on the truck" and the fact that the gentlemen who were here took the time to talk to them. Your concern and attention to detail is something that I have never seen before in waste management. I will suggest your company wherever I go.”
Tim P. - Halifax, Nova Scotia
“Ginny's beyond amazing customer service sold me, but I had no idea how fantastic the whole process would be! She was there to support me through the process with all my questions. The team showed up and were so friendly and helpful. They shared even more awesome insight on the business and helped clear away my room of doom just in time for a special event! All the review stars for your phenomenal service! If you need to clear out your room of doom you gotta go team Junkery! Thank you so much!”
Sadie J. - Glen Haven, Nova Scotia
“They were awesome! Highly recommend them and we will be using them again. They were very professional and quick to get all our junk on the truck and recycled.”
Melissa R. - Bedford, Nova Scotia
“Absolutely great experience with The Junkery. They were fast, kind, and did the job professionally! Will be hiring again.”
David M. - Halifax, Nova Scotia
“Using their bags was very convenient for the last minute junk we encountered during our move. The bags are deceptively big and hold quite a bit. The customer service was above and beyond and it made me feel good knowing that they sort and recycle what they can. This place isn't just a franchise, you can tell they actually care...”
Jennifer B. - Halifax, Nova Scotia
“Congratulations to a great business. Professional, well priced and honest. Great combo for a company sometimes dealing with pretty emotional circumstances. Thanks for your help and making a hard job easy.”
Bette M. - Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia
“Very quick and professional! Came by my place at a moments notice and made my back yard liveable again.”
Anders B. - Dartmouth, Nova Scotia
“Love their philosophy - no hidden costs. Pay for the bin and keep it until you're finished with it. No dumping fees on top etc. They actually sort all junk at their facility for proper recycling, donating, scrap metals, and garbage.”
Rob G. - Halifax, Nova Scotia
