When you hire a junk removal company, you are letting strangers into your home with heavy equipment. Knowing they are properly licensed and insured is not optional — it is the bare minimum. Here is exactly what Tacoma Junk Crew carries and why it matters to you.
Our Licenses & Credentials
State business license — registered and in good standing with the state of WA
City business license — licensed to operate in Tacoma and surrounding municipalities
Waste hauler registration — registered with state environmental and waste management authorities for legal transport and disposal
DOT compliance — commercial vehicles registered and inspected per Department of Transportation requirements
EPA compliance — trained in proper handling and disposal of electronics, appliances with refrigerants, and other regulated materials
Insurance Coverage
General liability insurance — covers damage to your property during the job. If our crew scratches a floor, dings a wall, or damages anything on your property, our insurance covers the repair. Minimum \$1M per occurrence.
Workers compensation insurance — covers our crew if they are injured on your property. Without workers comp, YOU could be liable if a worker gets hurt at your home. Every Tacoma Junk Crew crew member is covered.
Commercial auto insurance — covers our trucks and any damage during transit to and from your property.
Why This Matters to You
Unlicensed junk removal companies are everywhere. They advertise on Craigslist, Facebook, and Nextdoor with low prices — but they carry no insurance, no workers comp, and often no legal authority to haul waste. If something goes wrong — property damage, illegal dumping, a worker injury on your property — you have zero protection.
Hiring a licensed and insured company like Tacoma Junk Crew means your property is protected, your liability is covered, and your waste is disposed of legally. It is peace of mind that costs nothing extra.
Verify Our Credentials
We provide proof of insurance and licensing on request before any work begins. Many of our commercial and property management clients require a Certificate of Insurance (COI) — we issue them same-day. Call 253-555-0112 to request documentation.
