Local alternatives to "Got Junk"?

(It just occurred to me the potentially randy reading one could perform on the subject line. Lol!)

Dear Davis Square folks,

I've got various big clunky items sitting around mostly in various storage areas--a couple of dead TV sets, semi-dead stereo set, some furniture, etc. I really want to get rid of anything that can go before my next move and am researching various outfits such as 1-800-GOT-JUNK. (I've tried Freecycle, but this seems to be the sort of thing nobody wants except for professionals who make a living out of recycling rubbish.)

I was wondering whether any of you smart, sassy, crafty individuals have heard of locally based firms that do this kind of thing--and might potentially charge less than the big national firms.

Thanks and Happy Spring (we devoutly hope!)!

If you live in Somerville, you can put the dead TVs out on your regular trash day. You must call 311 at least 24 hours in advance and tell them you are doing this.
