Junk Removal Crew Member

Looking for a part-time role that keeps you active instead of behind a desk?

We are hiring a friendly, dependable, customer-service-focused team member to assist with local junk removal jobs in the Iowa City area.

You’ll be working directly alongside the owner on job sites, making this a great fit for someone who wants hands-on work in a small business environment where your effort matters and you’ll learn directly from the business owner.

This role could be a strong fit for a former athlete, mover, or someone with labor/customer service experience looking for flexible extra income. We’re also open to discussing internship credit for students depending on school program requirements.
