Company mission

To make junk removal cheaper, easier and greener.

Our take

Unscheduled waste collection is a process associated with considerable inefficiencies, including slow response times, opaque pricing, and risks of fly tipping. These problems are only more worrying as there are billions of tonnes of waste per year worldwide, significantly contributing to greenhouse emissions if they end up in a landfill.

LoveJunk is challenging this current system. An online marketplace, they match people wanting to throw out their rubbish to the cheapest licensed waste carrier or reuse organisation that can collect it. In doing so, they aim to simplify the process of waste removal to make it more transparent and efficient.

Solving an issue so widespread across the UK, LoveJunk have great potential to build a business that will have a significant impact on many people and make waste collection more sustainable.
