At Get R Gone, we go beyond simply hauling away junk – we’re about creating cleaner, more sustainable communities in London, Ontario, and the surrounding areas.
I’m Mike Metcalfe, the owner of Get R Gone, and I’d like to share a little bit about who we are and what drives us. Born and raised in St. Thomas, Ontario, I’ve spent much of my life in London, too, and have seen firsthand the importance of a strong, connected community. My background includes years of work at the London Waldorf School, an experience that inspired me to take on projects that build healthier spaces for everyone. At Get R Gone, this commitment is at the heart of everything we do.

How Get R Gone Makes a Local Impact
My roots in St. Thomas and London have taught me the value of community partnerships. At Get R Gone, we’re proud to work alongside respected property managers and organizations that care as much as we do about improving our city.
