Gone.com Partners with 1-800-Got-Junk to Help Reduce Landfill Waste and Promote Sustainable Shopping
Seattle, WA – April 1, 2025 – gone.com, a startup focused on recommerce, is proud to announce its new partnership with 1-800-Got-Junk of Western Washington, a trusted name in junk removal services. Together, the two companies are working to reduce landfill waste while giving gently used furniture including couches, tables, and other household items a second life through an innovative storage and sales model.
Through this collaboration, 1-800-Got-Junk of Western Washington hauls gently used furniture and home goods from local homes and businesses in King County to gone.com’s facilities in Renton. Items in good condition are stored in Gone’s warehouse and distributed to their partners and stores to find them a new home to prevent reusable items from ending up in landfills.
"The sustainability ecosystem thrives on innovation and collaboration, and it’s vital to keep fostering both at every opportunity," said Jeff Hill, franchise owner of 1-800-Got-Junk, serving Bellevue, Tacoma, Olympia, and Bellingham. "Our partnership with Gone is an exciting step forward in that direction."
Helping the Environment, One Item at a Time
Each year, millions of tons of furniture and household items are discarded, contributing to the growing problem of landfill waste. By partnering with 1-800-Got-Junk, Gone is offering a solution that benefits the environment, local communities, and customers alike. Items that may have otherwise been discarded are given a second chance, reducing waste and promoting a circular economy.
A Win-Win for Washington State
This partnership aligns with Washington’s pledge to protect the environment and build a sustainable future. By keeping valuable furniture and household goods out of landfills, Gone and 1-800-Got-Junk are helping to reduce the state’s environmental footprint. This initiative supports Washington’s goals to promote waste reduction, recycling, and the responsible reuse of materials, creating a cleaner, greener future for residents.
By collaborating with Gone, junk haulers can not only help divert furniture and home goods from landfills but also create a new revenue stream. Instead of paying disposal fees or having to deal with the logistics of large-scale waste removal, junk hauling companies can partner with Gone to sell reusable items and earn revenue while lowering junk removal costs.
“We’re excited to partner with 1-800-Got-Junk to make a meaningful impact on our local communities by reducing waste and promoting sustainability,” said Yash Wagh, co-founder and CEO of gone.com. “This collaboration helps provide customers with affordable, high-quality furniture while also keeping our environment in mind. We encourage other junk hauling companies to join us in this effort – not only to reduce landfill waste but to create a profitable business model that benefits everyone.”
