Our Story & Mission
Veteran-Owned. Purpose-Driven. Community-Focused.
TopGun Hauling and Junk Removal LLC was founded by Jared Hicks, a U.S. Army veteran who wanted more than just a job—he wanted a purpose. After over a decade of military service maintaining and recovering heavy-duty vehicles, Jared developed an unwavering work ethic, a commitment to structure, and a deep appreciation for community. He began hauling junk as a side hustle while working full-time, but his passion for helping people quickly turned that side hustle into a full-fledged business.
At TopGun Hauling and Junk Removal, our military values shape everything we do. We bring discipline, safety, timeliness, and attention to detail to every job, just like Jared did in the Army. Each team member is trained to treat your home or job site with respect, assess the best tools for the job, and leave spaces cleaner than we found them. We don’t just show up and toss things into a trailer—we show up with a plan, a purpose, and a mission to serve.
More Than Just Junk
A Smarter, Sustainable Way to Serve
Junk removal is about more than taking things away—it’s about where those things end up. At TopGun Hauling and Junk Removal, sustainability is a core value. We sort loads to recycle metals, donate usable items, and minimize landfill waste. Jared has built relationships with local processors and recyclers like Sutter Metals, ensuring that materials are handled responsibly. Every decision we make—from disassembly to drop-off—is done with the environment and the community in mind. Because making a difference starts with how we treat what’s being thrown away.
Since 2020, TopGun Hauling and Junk Removal LLC has completed over 600 jobs and recycled more than 600,000 pounds of scrap metal—keeping massive amounts of waste out of landfills. But our impact isn’t measured just in tonnage. It’s in the hundreds of satisfied clients who’ve trusted us to haul away their worries. Our 40+ five-star reviews speak to the care, professionalism, and accountability we bring to every job. Whether it’s a property cleanout, a garage refresh, or a construction site haul, we take pride in every pound we move.

We had a complicated job removing a metal RV cover after it was crushed by a tree. Jared gave a great bid and did a great job. Make sure you at least get a bid from Top Gun. Highly recommend!

Jared had helped me moved my mother's leather couches. He was very quick and prices were very fair for the job. He and his wife came with friendly faces and we are more than happy to request for next time.
