About Us

Our Story

Backwoods Junk Removal began with two friends, a truck, and a simple goal: help people out.David Bunt and Terrance Henry never set out to build a business. At first, they were just lending a hand, hauling junk, making dump runs, and helping friends and neighbors clean up their spaces.

But something clicked.

People noticed how reliable they were. They showed up on time, worked hard, and treated every job with respect, no matter how big or small. Before long, the phone was ringing more often, and the jobs were coming from people they didn’t even know. Word had spread: if you wanted the job done right, call David and Terrance.

What started as a weekend side hustle quickly turned into something bigger. They realized they weren’t just hauling junk, they were solving real problems and giving people peace of mind. So they went all in.

Today, Backwoods Junk Removal is a trusted local business that proudly serves Holly Springs and the surrounding area. David and Terrance still run the company hands-on, focused on the same things they started with: great service, honest work, and giving back to the community they call home.
