01Around Clovis

Where in Clovis does Papi’s pick up?

Clovis is home base for Papi's. Whether it's an older place near Old Town Clovis off Clovis and Pollasky avenues or a newer house in Harlan Ranch, Loma Vista or Heritage Grove, the truck usually doesn't have far to go.

Clovis grew from an 1890 railroad freight stop named for wheat farmer Clovis Cole into a city of about 120,000 people (2020 census). Much of the newer growth along Herndon, Shepherd and Shaw avenues was laid out under city master plans, and about two-thirds of homes are owner-occupied.

02Old Town Clovis

Junk removal in Old Town Clovis

Old Town Clovis is the city's restored historic center: early-20th-century storefronts on Clovis Avenue — originally Fulton Street, then Front Street, then Main Street — the railroad depot moved in 1999 to the northeast corner of Clovis Avenue and Fourth Street, and antique shops along Pollasky Avenue.

Older homes and shops around Old Town often mean tight driveways and decades of stored stuff. Papi's sizes the load on-site, carries everything out and leaves the space swept.

03Typical jobs

What do Clovis jobs usually look like?

Mostly owner-occupied suburban city: 43,954 homes in the 2020 census, 64% owner-occupied, with much of the newer growth in master-planned neighborhoods.

  • Garage cleanouts in newer neighborhoods
  • Move-out and downsizing cleanouts
  • Backyard and side-yard cleanups

  • The City of Clovis runs a Community Clean-Up twice a year, spring and fall, for single-family residential customers. Sorted piles go on the curb in front of the home — not driveways, alleys or yards — no more than two weeks early and by 6 a.m. on pickup day.

“You want friendly, reliable, and exceptional service? Give these guys a call. We were in a massive bind on the day of our escrow closing. The original junk haul provider we booked canceled on us at the exact time they were supposed to arrive. Desperate for a solution, we called Papis Junk Removal. They were incredibly understanding of our stressful situation and miraculously scheduled a haul within 2 hours. To make it even more impressive, they are based in the Fresno/Clovis area and drove 45 minutes up the mountain to Tollhouse to get the job done. They completely saved our closing day, and we cannot recommend them enough!”
