Our Story
It started as a family effort
Our company began with a father and his two children working together to serve our community. What started as family weekends hauling and sorting became a business built on the same principle it began with: show up, do it properly, and take care of the neighborhood you live in.
That story was recently featured in Forest Hills Connection, in an article about the everyday problem of what to do with the bag of batteries in your junk drawer.
Today we serve homeowners, real estate professionals, condominium and cooperative communities, apartment buildings, and senior living communities throughout Washington, DC, Bethesda, Chevy Chase, and Silver Spring.

"A Local Dad and Kids' Business Can Do Something About the Bag of Batteries in Your Junk Drawer"
Forest Hills Connection wrote about how our family got started, and why we made it our mission to help neighbors responsibly recycle batteries, electronics, and other hard-to-dispose-of items.
Local Dad and Kids' Business Makes a Difference
For many Northwest DC residents, the old television in the closet and the tangle of dead cables in the junk drawer share the same problem: nobody knows quite how to get rid of them. A local family business is changing that, one pickup at a time.
Student Union, a family-run junk removal service based in the neighborhood, has been quietly building a following with its flat-fee porch pickups and resident e-waste collection days for condominium and apartment communities across the Northwest quadrant.
"No loads left behind," is how they put it — and neighbors who have used the service say the crew's friendliness is matched by where the items end up: recycled or donated whenever possible, never simply dumped.
Buildings along Connecticut Avenue have begun scheduling collection mornings, with residents describing the process as refreshingly simple, and board members calling the events a welcome new amenity for their communities.
