4worldlovers: After completing his MBA in business, Jeff Wong began his quest to have his own business. He wanted to put his newly learned knowledge into effect. He had goals. Business needed to be based on core principles that enabled him to outperform the competition and build market share rapidly. He wanted to run a business that could increase its level of performance when tested by larger demands. He found that company… Junk King. Junk King is the #1 rated junk removal service in West Los Angeles and North America. Its plan is simple. They offer great customer service and recycle and reuse more than 60% of the junk and debris they collect.

Jeff became a Junk King Franchise owner in November of 2015. He services West Los Angeles as far north as Malibu and all the way down the LA coast to the Palos Verde Peninsula (South Bay). He says,”My MBA studies have helped guide me in making decisions and running my day to day operations of my Los Angeles Junk Removal Company. My personal experiences have helped me relate to my customers, employees, and professional contacts. Services include things like: appliance removal, hot tub disposal, electronics waste disposal, trash removal, and mattress disposal.”

S.A.F.E Centers: Permanent Collection Centers for Los Angeles City and Los Angeles County Residents


S.A.F.E. Centers (Solvents/Automotive/Flammables/Electronics) are permanent collection sites that are open every weekend for residents to drop off their household hazardous waste (HHW) and electronic waste (e-waste). Scroll down for a list of locations, operating hours, and items accepted and not accepted at our S.A.F.E. Centers.


How to Prepare For Your Trip to a S.A.F.E. Center


Pack your HHW/E-Waste in a cardboard box or plastic bin sturdy enough to support the weight of the individual containers. If using a box, tape along the seams on the bottom for added support and to prevent any leaks onto your vehicle. The box/bin will be returned to you.

Keep items in their original containers, and remove all personal information from data containing devices and medication labels.(Original containers with labeling are recommended – label contents yourself if the label is unclear. This is helpful for staff to identify material in a container)

Place waste securely in the trunk and separated from personal belongings. Keep all items away from passengers.

When you arrive, you will be asked to complete an oral survey by our staff.

For your safety, you must remain in your vehicle at all times during the unloading process. Your vehicle must be put in park and turned off while our technicians unload your waste. You cannot unload your own waste.

STATE TRANSPORTATION LIMIT: 15 gallons or 125 pounds per vehicle per visit. What happens if you have more than this legal limit? You are welcome to return on the next operating day to drop off the additional materials.

Compressed Gas Cylinders (propane, butane, helium, MAPP gas, and fire extinguishers)**

LED Light Bulbs, Fluorescent Tubes/Bulbs and Ballasts (with no metal fixtures)
