Where do your unwanted items go after you schedule a pickup with Junk Bear? That’s a great question and one we take seriously.

We’re proud to provide a responsible, eco-conscious solution to junk removal.

Whether we’re donating gently used furniture, recycling old appliances, or safely disposing of debris, we make every effort to reduce waste, support local communities, and protect the environment. When you choose Junk Bear, you’re not just cleaning out your space—you’re making a smarter, more sustainable choice.


1. Recycle: The First Step in Answering “Where Do Your Unwanted Items Go?”

Recycling is one of the key ways we prevent items from ending up in landfills. Our team is located just down the street from our primary transfer station, which allows us to offload recyclables quickly and easily. From scrap metal and batteries to cords and mattresses, we make sure everything that can be recycled is recycled.


2. Reuse: Turning Unwanted Items into Useful Tools

Still wondering where your unwanted items go? Sometimes, they stay right here—used in our shop or by our team. We frequently reuse items like tools, cords, furniture, and even games. It’s a fun and practical way to give useful items a second life.


3. Repurpose: Creative Ways to Handle Junk

We love repurposing! Old dressers become storage cabinets, industrial racks organize our shop, and tarps are reused for yard work. This helps reduce waste while supporting our day-to-day operations.


4. Resell: Welcome to Bearly Used

Our resale shop, Bearly Used (36 Triano Dr Bay C Southington, CT), is where many of your high-quality, unwanted items end up. We partner with a local lister to resell items at deep discounts, and a portion of the proceeds goes back to the team in the form of bonuses. Another great answer to where your unwanted items go!
