Make Your 2015 Resolution for Albany Junk Removal

This is the favorite time of year for gym owners. That’s because they know the number on New Year’s resolution is to “Get into better shape.” That translates into lots of new gym memberships. Sadly, most of those memberships will fade away in the coming months as people fall back into bad habits. Yes, getting into shape is the number one resolution and it’s also the hardest resolution to keep. There is one resolution that you’ll have no problem making and keeping. That would be clearing out the clutter in your home. Sounds like too much work? It won’t be when you hire Junk King to lend a hand.

You probably have a long list of things you’re ready to get rid of. These are the kind of objects you have to fight through every time you go into your closet looking for something. They are also the kinds of things that could be keeping your from parking your car in your garage. Maybe it’s all the stuff that stands between you and your washer down in the basement. Whatever is on your junk removal list, the team from Junk King will be able to get rid of it even if that means making a dozen trips up and down those stairs!

Junk King will also be providing you with a truck that all your stuff will be loaded into. That should leave no doubt about getting rid of as much as you want in a single junk removal appointment.

If another resolution for 2015 is to reduce your carbon footprint, then Junk King has you covered. Since they began their business back in 2005, Junk King has been dedicated to eco-friendly junk removal policies. This means that the bulk of what they collect is kept out of local landfills. Nothing would make Junk King happier than if they could avoid those dumps all together. Instead, they’ll strive to have your junk dropped off a charity or certified recycling center. This is especially important with your e-waste since it has now become against the law to throw that out with the trash.

What will this exceptional junk removal service cost? Surprisingly, not a lot! Junk King will charge a flat fee based on how much space your junk takes up on the back of the truck. It’s a competitive price based on volume not weight. Start your New Year right with junk removal from Junk King.

Albany TV Disposal – Want to Replace Your TV This Holiday Season?

By now, you’re Christmas stockings are probably “hung with care.” The question then becomes who is going to hang your new flatscreen television. If you’re like millions of other Americans, you might have treated your family to a new flatscreen HD television. Aside from how amazing the picture and sound quality is going to be on this TV, you’ll also benefit from how little space it takes up. If you’ve got a clear piece of wall across from your sofa, then you can hang your flatscreen up like a painting. With a little extra effort, you can also have all the wires “disappear.” By disappear, we mean snaked through the inside of your walls. To get this job done right, you might want to consider hiring two professionals: One for the installation and one for the old TV disposal. For the installation, you’ll have many options but for the disposal, you should only be calling Junk King.

Junk King is part of a national franchise of professional junk haulers who have been clearing out the clutter from homes and businesses since 2005. One of the first things that Junk King noticed about the junk they were collecting is that there were a lot of old TVs being tossed out. A television is not something you can simply put on the curb. Most garbage pickup companies won’t touch it. That’s because it is considered e-waste and has to be properly disposed of. Junk King understands this and that’s why they set up a partnership with a certified e-waste recycling facility here in Albany. They’ll make sure your old television will get to where it needs to go!

Along with your old TV disposal, you can also put that Junk King crew to work removing all the rest of your household clutter. By the time the holidays are over, you’re sure to find a lot of stuff you can get rid of. Since Junk King will provide a two-man crew and big truck with any type of junk removal appointment, there is no end to what you can get rid of. As with your old TV, Junk King will also do what they can to make sure the rest of your junk is recycled or donated. When it comes to responsible TV disposal and junk hauling, clearly Junk King is the best company to hire.

Feel Safe With Your Albany Junk Removal Team

You can be a trusting person but that doesn’t mean you have to put yourself at risk. This is especially true every time there is a knock at the door that you don’t expect. Just because someone is on the other side of the door doesn’t mean you have to open the door. If you don’t have a peephole or security camera, you should ask (through the door) who is on the other side. If it is not someone you recognize or want to deal with, simply don’t open the door. You’re not going to hurt anyone’s feelings by being safe. This is the same approach you should take when inviting workers into your home: Trust but be cautious.

The first thing you need to be aware of when hiring a service company is their level of professionalism. Someone you find roaming in your neighborhood in a rusty pickup truck might not be the best person for junk removal. Would that person have references? Are they licensed, bonded and insured? Do they have a reputation for exceptional customer service that you can check on the Internet? Those are the kinds of questions you should be asking of your service professional.

When it comes to junk removal, the team from Junk King is someone you can always trust. The first indication they are professional is the uniform that the crew members wear. Yes, it’s just a red T-shirt but it sets them apart and identifies them as a member of the Junk King crew.

The Junk King junk removal team will be doing all the hard work of lifting and loading for you. This means you can give your aching back a break! It doesn’t matter how heavy something is or where it might be situated in your home, the Junk King crew is going take care of having it removed. They have been trained to handle all types of heavy moving. They also will be able to dismantle and disassemble anything to get it out of your home and make it fit on the truck.

You’ll also feel good about hiring Junk King for junk removal because of their eco-friendly disposal policies. Junk King strives to keep the majority of what they collect out of local landfills. That’s great news for Albany. It’s clear that when you want professional junk removal, the only company to hire is Junk King.

Albany Yard Waste Removal Services

Experience matters in any type of service job. Even a task that is looks simple on the surface can benefit from time tested techniques. In other words, there will always be a right way and a wrong way of doing something. Wouldn’t you like to hire the company that consistently does things the right way? When it comes to junk hauling and yard waste removal, that dependable company would be Junk King. They put their experience to work every day and you get to be on the receiving end of those benefits.

Junk King has been in the junk removal business since 2005. That has given them plenty of time to learn a few “tricks of the trade” that make each job run more efficiently. Consider yard waste removal. Typically, these jobs have the Junk King crews dealing with a lot of loose items. Rotten wood, piles of leaves, branches, shrubs, dead plants, sod, rocks and chunks of concrete would all go on that list. Junk King has learned that the best approach for this chore is to load up all that waste in a bin and move that bin back and forth to the truck. Sounds simple, but there are plenty of junk haulers who like to charge by the hour and want to drag out the job. That’s not going to happen with Junk King. You also won’t have to “lend” them your trashcan. The Junk King crews arrive at every job fully equipped with all the tools they need to get the task completed.

Included in those tools would be things like hammers, screwdrivers and crowbars. These can be used for more intense yard waste removal projects like taking down a fence, a wood shed or a swing set. Every Junk King crew has the experience to dismantle whatever you need hauled away.

Experience also has taught the crew to treat your property with respect. They’re not going to track dirt through your home. Obviously, if you have yard waste removal and junk hauling, they’ll carry out the debris from inside the home before heading out to the yard. Again, it sound obvious but you’d be amazed at how many so-called professional junk haulers get that wrong. When you need efficient and affordable yard waste removal and junk hauling, Junk King is the only company to call.

Albany Furniture Pickup

Aside from your bed, your sofa is the one piece of furniture in your home that you spend the most time on. We all have our favorite spot on the sofa. It’s a spot that is coveted and everyone in the family knows to stay away! Ironically, having a single spot used over and over is the leading cause for having a sofa wear out. Like your car and fridge, sooner or later you’re going to have to replace that couch. The couch-shopping phase is a little like Goldilocks’ adventure. You need to find a sofa that is not too hard and not too soft but just right. Once that is complete, you need to arrange for your old furniture pickup. That’s where Junk King can step up to the plate and lend a helping hand.

Junk King is part of a national franchise of junk removal professionals. The first rule of junk hauling is you need the same amount of people to take something away as those who brought it in. With a sofa that’s at least two capable movers lifting and loading that item onto the back of the Junk King truck. There is also some maneuvering around walls and over floors that has to be dealt with. This is why you want junk haulers who have been trained and are insured. That is just what you’ll be getting with your Junk King crew.

In addition to the furniture pickup, you can also tap the Junk King crew to take away all kinds of bulky or heavy items. Most folks have plenty of boxes loaded with unwanted stuff taking up space in their garage. In extreme cases, those boxes overrun the garage keeping the homeowner from parking their car in there. What’s more important to you: Keeping  your car safe from winter storms or protecting junk you’re never going to use again? When you’re ready to get rid of that junk, then put Junk King to work.

With regard to pricing, you’ll find that Junk King is the best deal in Albany. You’ll only get charged a flat rate based on how much space your junk occupies on the back of the truck. If there is one thing the Junk King crews like to do it is pack up a truck tight. That want to make room for as much junk as possible and that means you’ll be getting the lowest rate every time. For fast furniture pickup and total junk cleanout, Junk King is the only call to make.

Capital District Furniture Removal

There is a saying used by computer programmers called GIGO. That refers to “garbage in, garbage out.” In the world of computers, the big machines can process a lot of useless information but that only happens when useless data is programmed into the device. In a roundabout way, you can look at your furniture removal with the same philosophy. In this case, it would be FIFO: furniture in, furniture out. In other words, what it took to bring that old sofa into your living room with require the same amount of effort to take it out. When you break it all down, we’re talking about two capable movers and a big truck. That’s just what you’ll get from hiring Junk King.

Don’t Turn Your Albany Home Into A Storage Unit

How much would you pay for a parking spot? Most of us who live in homes are lucky to have a driveway or garage for easy access. Down in Manhattan, a new condo building in SoHo has put a price of one-million dollars on a 200-square-foot parking spot. You read that right: one-million dollars to park your car. You don’t even get to own that spot. It’s just a lease for 99 years. Plus, if you move, the spot gets resold but that doesn’t automatically mean you’ll get the million back. This puts your own garage into a new perspective, doesn’t it? If you’ve turned your garage into a storage unit, maybe it’s time to get out the junk and park your car in there once again. Junk King can help you get there.

Winter is just around the corner. That means the potential for more storms. You shouldn’t spend another cold season shoveling out your car when you’ve got a perfectly good parking space in your garage. What is the clutter in there? Some folks park a treadmill in the garage in the hopes of shedding a few pounds. What happens is that the treadmill goes unused and becomes a tray for other boxes. Speaking of boxes, the garage is the perfect place to store whatever you’ve packed up and aren’t using. Shelves along a wall are a good way to organize but over the years, those shelves become crowded out and the boxes fill up the garage. Cue Junk King for the removal!

There are probably other areas of your home that have become a type of storage unit. Up in the attic, you could have some old bed frames, mattresses, suitcases and baby furniture that will never be used again. Make sure you don’t have any valuable antiques up there and then let Junk King haul all the stuff down. With a little work, you could even turn that attic into a spare room, home office or art studio. First, you’ll have to get rid of the junk.

If your basement isn’t the family room, then it could be the family storage unit. This is another perfect job for Junk King. The crews won’t have a problem making several trips up and down the stairs to make sure all your rubbish is gone. When you’re ready to close down your home storage unit, then Junk King will be ready for you!
