THE STORY

Junk Punks was founded in October 2022 in Tampa Bay, Florida, by business partners Ryder Radke and Logan Sullivan. What began with Ryder’s Chevy Tahoe with more than 200,000 miles, a $2,500 trailer, and a shared plan to build something bigger has grown into a multi-market junk removal brand.

The story actually began a year earlier in Wisconsin. Logan created the Junk Punks name and ran the business as a summer side hustle, giving the brand its first real-world start. While working in property management, he also saw how often customers were let down by poor communication, unclear invoicing, and inconsistent service from junk removal providers. When Ryder and Logan moved to Florida in September 2022, they brought that experience with them and launched Junk Punks in Tampa Bay less than a month later.

From the very beginning, the goal was bigger than hauling junk. Ryder and Logan set out to build a nationwide brand known for providing the absolute best junk removal service in every market it enters. They started in the field, built systems from the ground up, recruited strong leaders, and established a culture centered on professionalism, teamwork, accountability, and putting the customer first.

Today, Junk Punks operates four company-owned locations in Tampa Bay, West Palm Beach, Madison, and Janesville, along with two franchise locations in Orlando and Madison. With many more markets in the pipeline, the mission remains the same: raise the standard for junk removal nationwide through dependable service, clear communication, responsible disposal, and teams that take pride in doing the job right.
