ESJ Certified Solutions is proudly owned and operated by longtime friends and business partners, Jacob Sickelsteel and Shawn Elock. With a strong background in junk removal from larger, well-known companies, we recognized a gap in the industry — a lack of trust, clarity, and empathy for clients. Understanding that people and families are at the heart of every community, we took matters into our own hands and founded ESJ Certified Solutions to serve Michigan and the greater Grand Rapids area with the care and respect we would expect for our own families.

Helping people navigate life’s transitions is what drives us. Whether it’s clearing out a home, preparing for a move, or making space for new beginnings, we take pride in providing solutions that are handled with integrity and compassion. Our greatest satisfaction comes from knowing we are supporting our clients through important life changes in a trusted, ethical, and stress-free manner.

At ESJ, we believe in creating a fun, welcoming environment while delivering exceptional service with a personal touch. We are committed to building lasting relationships with our clients, ensuring every experience is as smooth and positive as possible. We look forward to helping you, your family, or your business take the next big step in life’s amazing journey.

Love and good vibes from Shawn and Jacob
