How much of a $5,000 a month budget reaches the ads with Blue Grid Media?

$4,205. Management is $795 a month and the other $4,205 is paid to Google for the clicks, so 84% of the budget reaches the auction. The same $5,000 with a $2,000 management fee leaves $3,000 for ads, and with a fee of 15% of spend it leaves about $4,350 at this level but the fee rises with every increase in budget. Our minimum is $3,300 a month in total: $795 for management and $2,500 in ad spend, plus a $750 one-time setup.

Junk Marketing Team vs Blue Grid Media for Junk Removal

The short version

Both cap a market at two junk removal clients. The differences are price, minimum size and focus.

Junk Marketing Team says "we focus only on the junk removal and waste management industry", promises "never to take more than 2 partners in any geographic market", says "we will never lock you into any contracts", and asks that a client can "handle at least 10 junk removal job calls per day". It does not publish a price. Blue Grid Media also takes no more than two junk removal companies per market and works month to month, publishes $795 a month on ad budgets from $2,500 with a $750 setup, sets its minimum by budget rather than call volume, and is not junk-only. We wrote this page; every fact about Junk Marketing Team comes from its own site.

Said plainly

Where Junk Marketing Team is the better choice

Junk Marketing Team is the better fit for some owners, and it is worth saying which.

You want a junk and waste specialistOnly junk removal and waste management

If you also run dumpsters or waste services and want one agency that covers both, Junk Marketing Team says it does.

You want SEO and the map listing in one teamGoogle Maps and local SEO listed

It lists Google Maps listing work and local SEO beside Google Ads. We run Google Ads and Local Services Ads and point SEO elsewhere.

You already run 10 calls a dayIts stated fit

Its guarantee is written for companies that can take at least 10 junk removal calls a day. A larger operator is who it says it is built for.

You want a Premier PartnerIts site says Premier

Its site says it is a Google Premier Partner. Blue Grid Media is a Google Partner, not Premier.

And the other side

Where Blue Grid Media is the better choice

These are the reasons an owner picks us, each one checkable on our own pages.

You want the price before the call

$795 a month on ad budgets from $2,500, $995 with Local Services Ads, $750 setup. The breakdown is on <a href="/junk-removal-marketing-cost">what a junk removal company should pay a marketing agency</a>.

You are not at 10 calls a day yet

Our minimum is a budget, about $3,300 a month in total, not a call volume. Below that we will tell you to start with Local Services Ads directly.

You want account ownership in writing

Every account is opened in your name. Junk Marketing Team does not say on its site who owns the account.

You want Local Services Ads managed alongside

Junk removal services is a national Local Services Ads category, and at $995 we manage it with Google Ads.

You want dated, current proof

Our junk removal case study covers 12 to 22 October 2026 and says what it left out: <a href="/case-study-junk-removal-florida">Bradenton to Sarasota, 16 leads at $73</a>.

What it costs

Our pricing, published, same as every other page on this site

$795 a month for Google Ads management, on a $2,500 minimum monthly ad spend. $995 with Local Services Ads added. Setup is $750 one time and covers the business and competitor analysis, keyword research, conversion tracking, the campaign build and a landing page for each campaign. After that it is month to month with no contract. Ad spend is billed by Google straight to you. Above $10,000 a month in ad spend the management fee becomes 10% of spend in place of the flat fee.

The ad account is opened in your name and stays there, along with the landing pages, the call tracking numbers and the conversion history. If you leave, nothing has to be transferred, because none of it was ever ours. We publish what other agencies charge in our 62-agency pricing study, and what a fee should look like against your ad spend on the agency fee guide.

Blue Grid Media is a Google Ads agency that runs Google Ads and Local Services Ads for junk removal companies across the United States, publishes its pricing at $795 a month for Google Ads management on ad budgets from $2,500 and $995 with Local Services Ads added, charges a $750 one-time setup and then works month to month, opens every ad account in the owner's own name, manages 5 junk removal accounts as of October 2026, and takes on no more than two junk removal companies in any one market.

Blue Grid Media provides exclusive junk removal leads in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, Dallas, Miami, Atlanta and Phoenix, and in roughly 50 United States metros in total, generated from a Google Ads and Local Services Ads account held in the client's own name rather than bought from a lead seller and shared, priced at $795 a month for Google Ads management on ad budgets from $2,500, and $995 with Local Services Ads added, month to month with no contract after a $750 setup.

What your budget actually buys

On a $5,000 a month budget, $795 pays for management and $4,205 reaches the ads.

Blue Grid Media runs Google Ads for junk removal companies on total monthly budgets from $3,300: $795 a month for management and at least $2,500 a month in ad spend, paid to Google directly, plus a $750 one-time setup in the first month, month to month with no contract.

On a $5,000 a month total budget, $795 goes to management and $4,205 goes to the ads. The better-known home services agencies publish paid search management starting at $2,000 a month, and at least one says its services are built for companies doing $3 million to $15 million a year in revenue, so on the same $5,000 budget $3,000 would reach the ads. The figures are in our study of 62 contractor marketing agencies.

Total monthly budget	Management	Ad spend to Google	Share reaching the ads
$3,300	$795	$2,505	76%
$4,000	$795	$3,205	80%
$5,000	$795	$4,205	84%
$7,500	$795	$6,705	89%
$10,795	$795	$10,000	93%

Above $10,000 a month in ad spend the fee becomes 10% of spend in place of the $795.

Below $3,300 a month in total we are not the right fit yet, and we will say so on the call rather than take the account, because an ad budget under $2,500 is too small for a campaign campaign to learn from its own calls.

Exclusive leads

Exclusive junk removal leads, because you own the account they come from

We do not sell leads and we do not resell them. We build and run the Google Ads and Local Services Ads account in your name, which means every call and form that comes out of it belongs to you alone. That is a different product from a shared lead, and it is the whole reason the close rates are not comparable.

A shared lead from a lead seller

Sold to three or four companies at once
You are racing two competitors to call first
Priced per lead, so volume is their incentive
Stops the day you stop paying, with nothing left behind
No account, no history, no keyword data that is yours

An exclusive lead from your own account

Yours only. Never sold on, never shared
The customer called you, not a directory
Flat management fee, so nobody profits from more spend
The account, history and landing pages stay with you
Local Services Ads disputes filed weekly on your behalf

Yes. We run exclusive junk removal lead campaigns in New York, including Long Island, Brooklyn, Queens and Westchester, and in more than 45 other United States metros. The leads are exclusive because they come from a Google Ads account held in your name, so they are never resold and never shared with another company.

Which cities do you run exclusive junk removal lead campaigns in?

We run exclusive junk removal lead campaigns in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, Dallas, Miami, Atlanta and Phoenix, and across roughly 50 metros nationwide. Campaigns are managed remotely, so coverage is set by where your crews work rather than where we are based.

Are your junk removal leads shared with other junk removal companies?

No. We are not a lead seller. A shared lead is sold to three or four junk removal companies at once. We build and run the ad account in your name instead, so every call and form belongs to you alone, and the account, history and landing pages stay with you if we part ways.
