I am Darius. I run Denver Junk Solutions on my own from an office in Golden, and I do every Westminster job myself: the quote, the carrying and the sweep. You hear the price on site before anything gets lifted.
Here is a Westminster job I actually did, with the part that went wrong left in.
A family in 80020 was in the middle of a move. The garage was the last room nobody had dealt with, and they called at midday. I had already done one run that morning and the trailer was about half full, so I told them straight: I had time that afternoon, and room for about half a trailer more. They said come over.
The pile was an old couch, a desk, a heavy all-metal patio table, boxes, cardboard and a layer of general trash. The patio table was the problem. I tried to cut it in half with a reciprocating saw, the saw overheated partway through on a hot August day, and the table won. It went on whole, loaded last and strapped down.
Then the broom. The garage floor got swept and the sweepings rode along with everything else. About 35 minutes on site, one trip to the transfer station, and the family had the garage back in time to keep the move on schedule. They left a five-star Google review afterward.
They paid $349, which was my flat garage price at the time. Today a job like that is priced by the yard it fills, and you see that number before I load a thing. That afternoon happened to be open. I cannot promise the same timing on every call, but when my schedule has room, you get it.

"Best junk removal in Denver, the young man who runs it is very smart and hard working. He cleaned out my garage spotless for a reasonable price. 10/10 would recommend!"
Nicolas did not say where the garage was, so I am not calling it a Westminster job. Read every review.
The City of Westminster does not run citywide trash pickup. Your trash service comes through your HOA or a private hauler you sign up with, and the city says plainly that it does not offer a large item pickup program. So when a couch or a garage full of boxes has to go, the city points you back to your trash hauler or to a junk hauler.
There are still a few city options worth knowing before you call anyone:
Source: City of Westminster, Trash & Recycling, checked September 26, 2026. Hours and programs change, so confirm with the city before you go.
For those, text me a photo. I carry it out, load it and sweep up, and the price is agreed before I start.
Westminster grew fast. The census counted about 13,850 people here in 1960 and about 74,600 in 1990, so a big share of the houses went up in those thirty years. That is the era of split-levels and tri-levels with a lower level, a crawl space and a two-car garage, and those are exactly the spaces that fill up over forty years of ownership.
The city spans Adams and Jefferson counties, and the work changes from one end to the other.
The south end of the city, where the old red sandstone Westminster University building still stands. Older homes, smaller lots and alleys, so I plan where the truck and trailer park before anything gets carried.
The split-level belt. Lower-level family rooms and crawl spaces packed with boxes, old furniture and things kept just in case. See how a basement cleanout runs.
Newer homes on the west side. The calls here lean toward garage overflow and the leftovers after a move. More on garage cleanouts.
More rentals, more tenant turnovers. Landlords and property managers call when a unit has to be empty before the next lease. That is a move-out cleanout.
Townhomes and apartments. Stairs and parking rules are part of the plan. Stairs are $25 a flight, and an elevator is not a flight.
Families who bought in the 1970s and 80s are downsizing now. Nothing leaves that you have not pointed at. An estate cleanout is often 10 to 20 yards and two trips.
The first 2 cubic yards are $149, and every yard after that is $75. Driving up from Golden costs you nothing extra, and neither do fuel or dump fees. You agree to the number on site before I lift anything.
Up to 2 cubic yards: one couch, a mattress and box spring, or a few small items
Basements commonly run 4 to 10 yards, carried up by hand
Often 10 to 15 yards, two trips, one price by the yard
These are typical ranges, not quotes. I count the yards in person, and the only add-ons are $25 for each flight of stairs, $40 when the carry is longer than 100 feet, and $25 a yard for concrete, tile, brick or roofing, all said out loud before the first item moves. See every size on the pricing page, or read the junk removal cost guide to see how Denver-area prices compare.
My office is at 18475 W Colfax Ave in Golden, and Westminster is about 21 minutes away when traffic is moving. I serve the whole city. Where I can, I book Westminster pickups alongside other jobs on the north side, and when we set the day you get an arrival window that I keep. I am out Monday to Saturday, 7am to 7pm, with Sundays by appointment.
Most of each load goes to an STS transfer station, North in Denver or South in Englewood, whichever is on the route that day. Good-condition pieces sometimes go to Goodwill or the Salvation Army instead, and a big pile of scrap metal gets recycled.
The rig is a Silverado and a 6x10 dump trailer, about 9 packed yards a trip. A bigger cleanout takes two trips, and you still pay only by the yard.
Text me a photo of what needs to go and I will text back a price. Then we pick a day and an arrival window that work for you.
