It can be a real hassle to carry a large load of laundry through a “minefield” of clutter. Even if you’re stubbed your toe once on something, that is one time too many!

Only when a holiday falls on collection day and the garbage piles up do you really take notice. What about all the things you want to get rid of that can’t fit into the trashcan?

Junk King is also doing their part for the environment by providing additional recycling and charity drop offs. The goal is to keep as much stuff out of local landfills.
