Here at Labor Bros, we've hauled away an incredible amount of junk since we opened our doors. Whether it's the hundreds of unsightly, heavy mattresses or old, unusable TVs, our crew has hauled some serious junk over the years. For each truckload of junk that we remove from a home or business, we work hard to donate applicable items and recycle others, to give back to the community and keep it clean.
When it comes to junk removal in West Ashley, SC, here are some of the most common items we remove:
Even the best mattresses will need to be replaced with enough time. Over the years, your mattress will begin to break down, causing you more pain than pleasure when your head hits the pillow. When your quality of sleep is affected, so too is your day-to-day life and wellbeing. To make matters worse, your old mattress is a haven for dead skin cells, hair, and even bugs. When it gets to this point, it's time to get rid of your mattress. Unfortunately, that can be easier said than done, especially if you're working 40 hours a week and must balance a family too. Luckily, the Labor Bros can remove your old mattress quicker than it takes you to snooze on a Sunday afternoon.
Labor Bros Pro Tip: Mattress parts like steel springs, wooden frames, and coils can often be donated or recycled. Our team is happy to handle this part of the junk removal process, so you don't have to!
If you plan on upgrading your kitchen, chances are you will need to update your old fridge too. Refrigerators are notorious for being big, clunky, hazardous appliances to remove. Most folks don't want to deal with the lengthy process of removing the appliance and disposing of it safely. That's where the Labor Bros come in! Whether you have a regular-sized fridge at your home or several large chest freezers at your business, the Labor Bros are here to haul them away today.
Labor Bros Pro Tip: Remember, many refrigerators and freezers have harmful chemicals that need to be disposed of properly. The Labor Bros always take these hazards into account, so you don't risk your health. Once these materials have been dealt with, our junk removal experts will either donate your unwanted fridge or haul it to the appropriate recycling facility.
With new technology and features debuting every other day, it's no surprise that we haul away old TVs every day. Whether you're moving to a new home or just want a new TV, we can remove your old flat screen quickly and safely. Our customers choose the Labor Bros for their TV removal not just because we're fast and effective, but because many modern TVs contain hazardous materials.

Cleaning up your yard debris can be a real pain in the butt. You need the right clothes to protect your legs and arms, gloves for your hands, possibly a back brace, and a lot of patience. After you're done, you're bound to need a shower and a long break. With all that in mind, it's no wonder why so many South Carolina residents call the Labor Bros for yard debris removal!

CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCIV) — Instead of a groundbreaking, it was a building breaking to kick off the long-awaited Ashley Landing project in the West Ashley area.
After 20 years of planning, it's out with the old and in with the new. The new Ashley Landing is finally moving forward.
"This is gonna be a transformational project for a long, neglected part of our city," Charleston Mayor Williams Cogswell said.

It was funded by a record-breaking $345 million investment.
"It's an investment of emotional connection," said Edens Properties Chief Executive Officer Jodie W. McLean. "It's an investment of creating a sense of place where people come together routinely to not only connect with the new neighbors, but to create new friendships and new meanings in life."
Edens now owns the 35-acre site through its investment of $300 million, while Charleston pitched in $45 million for infrastructure.
"When you're investing public money, you want to make sure it's done in a responsible way," Cogswell said. "You wanna look at folks that are looking at it for the long haul, not somebody that's just gonna come in, take advantage of our macro-economy and then pull out."

The key to the project is creating an area that seriously considers stormwater runoff. As a result, the company is looking to put in underground retention and preserve the live oaks in the area, Darlene Heater, the executive director of Charleston Parks Conservancy, said.
The project will have a partnership with Charleston Parks Conservancy, which will ensure environmental concerns are addressed.
"They're looking at how they create tree-lined streets that support the retail, but also create those opportunities to absorb rainwater into the canopies that deflect some of the heavy downpours that we get," Heater said. "We look forward to working with them on plant selection, on tree selection, on how they improve soil."
The project will build nine acres of stormwater retention underneath the property.
Officials say the project will be completed in phases, with the entire project expected to be completed by early 2027.
West Ashley will soon be home to a new community hub, dubbed Ashley Landing. This long-awaited revitalization project, located just off Sumar Street, has been years in the making.

West Ashley will soon be home to a new community hub, dubbed Ashley Landing. This long-awaited revitalization project, located just off Sumar Street, has been years in the making. The city first acquired part of the site back in 2017, and the Charleston City Council approved the project in September 2024.
The mixed-use space will total 35 acres, including the 3-acre former Piggly Wiggly + the 32-acre Ashley Landing site. Once finished, the project will boast 240,000 sqft of retail and restaurants, 285 multifamily units, 100 townhomes, and almost an acre of communal green space — browse the plans. “This site will serve as a one-stop shop for West Ashley. Neighbors will be able to get their groceries, enjoy a meal, and relax in park space with their families without needing to drive to various locations,” said Mayor Cogswell in a press release.
When it comes to funding, ABC News 4 reports that the city is pledging $45 million, Edens is contributing $300 million, and that public funds will be focused on infrastructure. They also say Edens is required to conduct a traffic impact study for the project, and that nine acres of stormwater retention will be built to mitigate flooding in the area.
Wednesday, May 7, City of Charleston leaders and project developer EDENS are inviting the community to the future site for a groundbreaking + to celebrate the start of the redevelopment project. Construction is set to begin this summer and is expected to wrap up within 18 months.

A sandwich chain that's operated in South Carolina for more than 80 years has added a West Ashley stop.
Groucho’s Deli, led by Max Miller — the great-grandson of founder Harold “Groucho” Miller — opened at 975 Savannah Highway in St. Andrews Shopping Center.
Miller has been working for the family business since growing up Columbia, where his grandfather opened the first restaurant in 1941 in the Five Points area.
“When I was 12 years old, I remember my dad used to pull a bar stool up and set me in front of the cash register,” Miller said.
After attending the College of Charleston, he opened his first Groucho’s Deli in Mount Pleasant in 2020.
The West Ashley outpost is Miller's second franchise, co-owned by Nick Basile, a lifelong friend and the former manager of the Five Points Groucho’s.
“He and I worked there almost every day in high school,” Miller said.
The West Ashley shop renews Groucho's presence in Charleston after the downtown location at 364A King St. closed in 2022 after 20 years. The franchise owner stated he had been priced out of the market.
Another Groucho’s Deli opened in Summerville in 2017 and is still going strong and another is in Mount Pleasant.
The deli, known for its “dipper” subs, large salads and signature “Formula 45 Sauce, was first franchised in the early 2000s by Bruce Miller, the third generation to operate the restaurant. The chain has grown to 32 locations in three states, with about three new stores added a year.
The count has come far since its namesake founder to Columbia in 1941 after spending his childhood in a Philadelphia orphanage with "a handful" of original recipes for potato salad coleslaw and dressings for salads and sandwiches.
