About JDog San Diego

Making a Positive Impact on Our Community

JDog Junk Removal San Diego is a locally owned and operated business run by brothers Ryan and Seamus Fitzpatrick.

Creating Opportunity for Veterans

What makes JDog different goes far beyond junk removal. JDog is built around Veterans and Veteran families, with a mission to create meaningful employment opportunities for Veterans who want to continue serving their communities and help drive Veteran unemployment below 1%. We bring that service-first mentality to every home, business, and property we service.

Environmentally Friendly

We also believe that just because something needs to be removed doesn’t mean it belongs in a landfill. At our local warehouse, we sort and divert as much material as possible through recycling, donation, and rehoming. We recycle metals and e-waste ourselves and store usable furniture, appliances, clothing, and household goods so they can find a second home with families who need them. Through our own rehoming efforts and our partnership with Habitat for Humanity, we’re able to reduce waste while giving back to the community we serve.

Giving Back

This model allows us to keep usable items out of landfills, support local families, reduce our operating costs, and pass those efficiencies on to our customers through competitive pricing. For us, junk removal isn’t just about hauling things away; it’s an opportunity to serve our community, support Veterans and Veteran families, and ensure as much as possible gets a second chance.
