Proudly family-owned and locally operated in Orange County, CA since 2020
Platinum Bucket Junk Removal is a family-owned, locally operated junk removal company founded by husband-and-wife team Juan and Christina Brittos.
Before launching Platinum Bucket, Juan and Christina spent years as dedicated personal trainers, helping clients build healthier lives through discipline, consistency, and care. When the COVID-19 pandemic forced gyms to close, they found themselves at a crossroads. Rather than step away from serving others, they chose to pivot — carrying the same customer-first mindset into a new way of helping people.
In 2020, inspired by the transformative power of a clean, organized space, Juan and Christina started Platinum Bucket Junk Removal. What began as a small, family-run operation quickly grew into a trusted local business known for reliability, honesty, and hands-on service. Their transition from fitness to junk removal reflects a shared belief: a clutter-free environment, like physical fitness, can dramatically improve quality of life.
Christina, a native of Orange County, and Juan, who immigrated from Argentina in 2002, met Christina in 2011 and married in 2017, together built Platinum Bucket from the ground up as a true family-owned junk removal business rooted in Orange County, CA. Every call, estimate, and job reflects their personal values — hard work, discipline, transparency, and genuine care for the community they serve.
As a family-owned company, Platinum Bucket takes a hands-on approach to every project. Juan and Christina are directly involved in day-to-day operations, ensuring each job is completed with professionalism, respect, and attention to detail. Their reputation matters deeply, because their name and family stand behind every service they provide.
Platinum Bucket Junk Removal also emphasizes eco-friendly practices, prioritizing recycling and donation whenever possible to reduce landfill waste. This commitment reflects not only their respect for the environment, but for the community they are raising their family in.
Juan and Christina’s journey from personal training to junk removal is more than a career shift — it’s a story of resilience, entrepreneurship, and a continued desire to make a meaningful, positive impact in people’s lives.
