The challenge
JunkBoss had the reputation to win, with 350+ Google reviews and over 1,000 happy customers, but none of that showed up online. Prospects searching "rubbish removal Tauranga" or "demolition Mount Maunganui" were finding bigger brands with worse reviews first, and the business was leaking same-day and next-day jobs to competitors with stronger digital presence.
Our approach
- Built a modern, conversion-focused website that put the review count, guarantees and before-and-after photography front and centre.
- Structured service pages around how customers actually search: house clearouts, commercial strip-outs, demolition, green waste, hoarder cleanups, with clear pricing.
- Rebuilt and optimised the Google Business Profile with geo-targeted landing pages.
- Created location pages for Tauranga, Mount Maunganui, Papamoa and Te Puke.
- Implemented LocalBusiness schema markup so rankings could be earned faster.
- Built citations across NZ trade directories and prioritised local SEO as the main growth lever.
The results
- Top 3 local rankings for core commercial keywords across the Bay of Plenty
- 350+ Google reviews now actively driving leads through search
- 1,000+ happy customers reflected properly in the online presence
- Same-day and next-day enquiries flowing in from organic search instead of competitors
