CMT Junk Removal

Around Vinton and the Lake/bedroom-community orbit, CMT Junk Removal is one of those outfits people keep in their phone because it’s just… no fuss. Cory (and when it’s a bigger hit, Cory and Brittany / the crew) runs it like a working person would want it run: he calls or texts back promptly, he shows up on time for the estimate and the actual job, and he sticks to the quote. How many junk guys can you say that about, honestly?

And the reviews read like what you hear on job sites when someone finally finds a hauler who doesn’t make everything complicated. Folks mention “easy to deal with,” “responsive,” “excellent communication,” and “exactly as quoted” over and over. That tells you he doesn’t play the vague pricing game. He looks at it, gives a fair price, and then does the work. But also—he updates you along the way when the job’s the kind that drags (eviction cleanouts, crawl spaces, big debris piles). You want radio silence while somebody’s clearing a rental after a tenant eviction? Probably not.

What stands out to me is how they handle the messy realities, not just the easy curbside stuff. They’re tearing down old metal sheds, demo’ing wooden sheds, hauling construction debris, tree limbs, heavy TVs and couches, cleaning out attics and basements with “50 years of stuff,” even clearing junk in the woods. That’s real removal work—tight crawl spaces, sharp metal, nasty dust, awkward carries. Yet people keep saying “left the area spotless,” “even raked up the little bits,” “cleaned up after himself,” “took time to cleanup the areas he worked on.” That’s the difference between a dump-run guy and someone who treats it like a trade.

Plus Cory’s reputation in the comments is consistent: polite, dependable, punctual, professional, hard working, great work ethic. Those words don’t show up that many times unless the guy actually operates that way day to day. And customers notice the attitude—cheerful, respectful, personable. One reviewer basically says, “he lifted a 300-pound log like it was nothing.” Maybe a little exaggeration, maybe not. But you know what they’re really saying: the crew doesn’t stand around scratching their head, they just get it done.

But here’s the practical question—do they make it easy when you’re in a pinch? Sounds like yes. Short notice help comes up, quick quotes off pictures comes up, fitting people in before weather hits comes up. That’s a small operator move, in a good way. Yet they still keep it buttoned-up enough that the price stays reasonable and the work stays clean.

If you’re a homeowner with a “honey-do” list you’ve been procrastinating, or a landlord staring at a post-eviction mess, or you’ve got a shed that needs to disappear… CMT is the kind of crew that shows up, works hard, charges fair, and leaves you thinking, “why didn’t I call sooner?” That’s the whole thing with Cory’s outfit—steady, straightforward, and the local word on them stays solid.
