JUNK REMOVAL · LOCAL SEO
The category has its own math: urgency, ticket size, seasonality, service area, reviews, and map coverage. We map where customers search, what they compare, and what proof they need before they call. Then we build the SEO and AI-search foundation around it.
SEO Essentials starts at $750/mo standalone or $400/mo bundled.

Junk removal is a same-day search. People want it gone today, so the company that shows up first with a clear way to book wins the job, and a slow or thin profile loses it to whoever is one tap away.
Price transparency drives the call. Buyers are nervous about surprise fees, so listing how pricing works, by the load or by the item, and backing it with reviews removes the hesitation that kills the booking.
Hauler reputation decides who gets trusted. You are sending people to a stranger's home or business to carry things out, so recent reviews and a clean, active profile do the reassurance work before the phone rings.
The numbers
We build the SEO around how this category actually makes money, not a generic checklist.

We map the trigger, the comparison, and the exact words they type, then build the pages around them.
The gap
Plain-spoken, from running these businesses ourselves. Every one of these is fixable.

Expand coverage into the suburbs the nationals neglect, build the realtor and contractor referral pages, and report which areas and job types drive the most hauls.
Why TVI gets junk removal
We have run home-service businesses where speed and trust win the same-day call and referral relationships carry the recurring revenue. Junk removal rewards the operator who shows up first with clear pricing and a clean reputation, and that is exactly what we build the SEO to do.
It all rides on the same local SEO program: GBP, geo grid, service and city pages, a review engine, and AI citability.

FAQ
Yes. Same-day intent is the heart of the category, so we make sure you show up first with an obvious way to book, because the company that is one tap away when someone wants it gone today gets the job.
We put it up front. Explaining how pricing works, by the load or by the item, and backing it with reviews removes the surprise-fee worry that makes people hesitate before they book.
On the local searches they treat as an afterthought. A fast, complete profile, real reviews, and same-area service pages let you win the near-me and same-day queries where a national ad budget does not help them.
No. Flat monthly retainer. Every call is yours, whether it is a single item or a full truckload.
Yes. Those referrers send repeat work, so we build pages that speak to fast property cleanouts and surface the reliability proof that makes you the hauler an agent trusts on a deadline.
The common ones should. Furniture, appliance, hot-tub, and estate cleanouts each get searched directly, so dedicated pages capture those queries and raise your average job.
It does. A lot of buyers care where their stuff goes, so we work your recycling and donation practices into the content, which both wins the values-driven customer and adds trust.
Because the category is same-day and profile-driven, call volume often moves within the first month or two as the profile and reviews strengthen, with rankings deepening across your radius after that.
