Brad Thomason, owner of AZ Junk, has deep roots as a native of Phoenix. He started in the industry in 1993 working for a moving company, then went on to start his own moving company in 2002. In 2003, he shifted focus and founded AZ Junk, a business specializing in hauling trash, debris, and clutter from people's homes. In his time working for others in the moving business, Brad was drawn to the hauling side of the industry. He enjoyed helping people renew their living space, and often came across unique gems to pass on to others. Starting his own business allowed Brad to get away from the unethical practices endemic to the moving industry.
