Jake — Founder & Owner NC State · Electrical Engineering

Our Story
Built From the Ground Up

My name is Jake. I'm a 19-year-old Electrical Engineering student at NC State, and I started JL Junk Removal & Demo to solve two problems at once: give hardworking college students meaningful work, and provide honest, dependable junk removal to the Asheville community.

Every person on my crew is a college student earning money for the upcoming school year. We're not here to coast — we're here to build something. That work ethic shows in every job we take on.

My mission is to create meaningful work opportunities that help students afford college while providing honest, dependable service to our community.

Our crew represents schools from across the Carolinas and beyond:

When you call JL, you're supporting all of them. We appreciate it more than you know.

He kept me informed of when he was coming and was there exactly on time. Did a great job and made sure I inspected everything to my liking. Jake and his helper are both nice and hard working college students. Very polite and appreciative of getting to do the job.

Jake is very professional and the best bang for your buck! It's a plus to invest into a young college student rather than throwing the money towards the big box removal companies that way overcharge. Highly recommended!

Showed up the next day and took care of everything in a fast and professional manner. Top notch communication, kept me updated every step of the way and showed up when he said he would. He even looked out for our pups. First call next time!
