How Junk King Atlanta Got Started and How They Can Help You

 

Junk King Atlanta opened its doors in January of 2012, seven years after the first Junk King opened in California. The franchise owner of Junk King Atlanta, Harry Van Buren, is also the owner of Junk King Cobb County and Junk King Gwinnett. Van Buren heads all three sister locations, and operations are run partly by his family alongside him. In a recent interview, Van Buren explained his reasoning for joining the Junk King company:

 

I was looking for a business that would be around for the species, not so much [like] Blockbuster or Yellow cab…I was looking for a business that would be sustainable as long as there’s [our] species on the planet…You know you hear a lot of different experts [approximating the amount of stuff the world can hold] in terms of the amount of people. You can hear anything from 10 billion to 15 billion. But [at] the rate that the population is exploding, we’re not too far away from 10 billion, we’re not. And if we don’t start thinking more about recycling, donating, repurposing, [we’re] to the point where—if we don’t reuse the resources—[the resources] are going to be gone. So that’s [why we do this, and how] important our business is to the survival of the species. It really, truly is a survival of the species business.

 

Junk King Atlanta is rated as Atlanta’s best way to get rid of clutter—according to over 2,000 online reviews. When it comes time for you to need help with trash disposal or clutter removal service, choose to move with Junk King. When you choose Junk King, junk hauling is as simple as 1, 2, 3—just point and the junk is gone!

10 Reasons Why Cleaning Clutter is Essential Before Your Vacation

 

When you finally get to book a vacation, the last thing on your mind may be home—you’ve not even left, so how could you miss it? But those in the know know that the next thing that needs to be taken care of is your home after you’ve set the departure date. It’s important that you clear clutter before summer so that when you return home, you have the best possible experience. Here are Junk King’s 10 best reasons to cut out the clutter and clean your home before you go:

 

  1. Clear the clutter before vacation or be left with the work when you return. 
  2. Double-check, triple-check—cleaning before gives you peace of mind while away.
  3. Clean the dishes and get rid of foodstuff; it’ll attract unwanted guests.
  4. Wash all the laundry, blankets, pillows, and accessories; it helps with jet lag and frustrations when you come home to an already clean house.
  5. Getting rid of the stuff cluttering up home can be difficult; getting help is easy.
  6. Take out the trash, close the taps, and empty the trash; otherwise, your home will stink while you’re away. 
  7. Unplug all the electronics—no one will be using them, and they can be a fire hazard if left alone.
  8. Don’t forget to set the thermostat! No one wants to come home to a heating bill four figures high.
  9. If at all possible, consider turning off the water and gas while you’re away—the electricity too.
  10. Cleaning your home before you go will ensure that when you return, you can continue the vacation, at least until you need to go to work again. 

What to do with the Stuff you Collected During the Spring Cleaning?

 

Spring cleaning is one of America’s biggest events from household to household. Spring cleaning usually consists of homeowners deep cleaning their homes after being locked within them for three months over the winter. It is ritualistic for those who participate in it. 

 

Spring cleaning is also known as one of the only times in the year a significant amount of clutter is expected to be removed from the home. It’s assumed that opening the house airs out all of the dead air from winter, but it also gives us the chance to get rid of junk and trash and restart the year with a clean home (with space for new purchases). 

 

The question remains then, what to do with the stuff collected? It doesn’t feel right to just load up the weekly collection bins with junk, and they only take so much anyway. Spring cleaning items like old books and clothes–maybe even some outdated items recently replaced–could be considered some of the stuff that spring cleaning would ask you to remove. Spring clean your home with the help of professionals this year. Professional assistance doesn’t just offer a convenient way to get rid of the majority of your trash and junk; it can also act as a sounding board and a reminder of what needs to be done. 

 

Additionally, some junk removal companies can not only remove junk for you, but they also will donate, reuse, repurpose, or recycle the items for you. That’s just about all anyone can ask of a removal company.

What is Junk King Atlanta Service?

 

If you are unfamiliar with junk removal, you may ask, “what does Junk King do exactly?” There are two types of Junk King Atlanta service; each is distinct in its solutions. Generally speaking, both options are available for residential and commercial property owners and managers—although alterations can be made for the needs of everyone. Further, it is important to mention that not all removal companies will have these options; many smaller companies simply do not have the physical abilities or the tools. Please consider:

 

  • Full-service: the favorite of businesses and overworked homeowners everywhere, the Junk King full-service consists of a Junk King professional removal crew (of at least two people, to start) and the use of a Big Red Truck for the removal. Junk King Big Red Trucks holds six regular pickup truck beds worth of junk and trash—that’s 20% more space than the competitor at the same price point. Additionally, the professional crew is there to not only help with the removal, but they will do all aspects of it for you. This is the ‘point and gone’ aspect of the phrase “when you move with Junk King, junk hauling is as simple as 1, 2, 3—just point and the junk is gone!”
  • Self-service: alternatively, many residential homeowners and more secretive business owners prefer this option. The Junk King self-service consists of the renting of a Junk King MINI dumpster over the span of multiple days. These rental periods are usually 3-day, 5-day, or 7-day increments. The Junk King MINI is also interesting. It is a small enough roll-away dumpster to be able to fit comfortably into any driveway while being large enough and heavy-duty enough to fit multiple appliances within its 12-cubic yard capacity interior. This is the option for anyone looking to have more time with their removal process since full-service is usually a two-hour process (although it can go longer in some cases).

Junk King Atlanta – A Property Manager’s Best Friend

If you are moving from one apartment to another (or a house!) the goal is to turn over that apartment in the same condition as when you first moved in. That way you’ll be able to get your security deposit back. The only reason landlords take security money is to insure they can cleanup that apartment and get it ready to rent again. This is why you should always take pictures of the empty space before moving in. If there is any damage there, point it out to the landlord and put it in the lease.

800px-Empty_apartment_living_room

Of course, there are just as many folks who don’t seem to care about their security deposit and will leave behind all kinds of rubbish. Maybe they’ve even lived out their last month’s rent with the security money. They can’t do that but by the time the landlord gets around to suing them, they’ll be long gone. That leaves the cleanup responsibility to the property manager. When the job is too big, they’ve got one call to make to get it done. That would be to Junk King Atlanta.

Junk King Atlanta is part of a national chain of professional junk haulers who have become a property manager’s best friend. Every junk removal appointment with Junk King is staffed by at least two very capable movers. These movers will also have a truck big enough to haul away an entire apartment worth of furnishings. Yes, sometimes that amount has been left behind! For those big jobs, Junk King will even send over more teams and additional trucks. That apartment needs to be cleared ASAP and Junk King is just the company who can do that.

Obviously, you can use Junk King for your personal junk removal chore no matter how much you want to toss out. You can also depend on the Junk King crew to help with your yard clean up. They won’t have a problem removing weed overgrowth, shrubbery, dirt, stones or concrete. If you’re replacing a deck or patio then you’ll definitely want to hire Junk King for the cleanup. Because the crews are always out and about, you might find that you’ll be able to score a same-day junk removal appointment. The sooner you call in, the quicker your junk can be removed by Junk King Atlanta.

Atlanta Computer Monitor & Printer Recycling

Occasionally, you’ll find an organization that will host an e-waste drop off day. This is when you can gather up your old computer monitor, printer, laptop or other electronic gear and make sure it will be recycled in a responsible manner. Of course, for a drop off day, that means you have to do the loading. You also have to dedicated time on your day off to drive to that location. Hopefully, you’ll get there before the collection ends otherwise you’ll be stuck with your stuff once again. Is there are better way to get rid of e-waste? Absolutely when you hire Junk King.

computer-inside-736279-m

Improve your Atlanta Neighborhood Curb Appeal

Improving your home’s curb appeal might mean actually looking up from the curb. What kind of shape is your roof in? It might be time to break out the ladder and do a little inspection. Of course, safety first is the rule and you shouldn’t climb up there unless you’re able. You could see any problems just from the rain gutter. Of course, as long as you’re up there, you might as well clear out the gutters and sweep off any debris that is on the roof. Whenever cleaning up, it’s always best to start from the top and work your way down. Once you make back to the yard, you might want to bring in Junk King. They can do amazing things for your curb appeal.

Atlanta Christmas Tree Disposal – Don’t Let It Sit Any Longer!

How long do you wait before you bring down your Christmas decorations? Most folks opt for the first weekend after New Year’s Day to start taking down the lights and the tree. As pretty as those decorations were in December, they start to look like a nuisance around the first week of January. Then there is the tree to contend with.

Feel Safe With Your Atlanta Junk Removal Team

How secure is the lock on your front door? Just like every other gadget or appliance in your home, your locks will eventually wear down. You’ll notice this is happening when it starts becoming more of a challenge to turn the key. Before you accidentally break off that key, you might consider replacing the locks. After all, that front door is your first line of defense against unwanted visitors. There are other areas of your home such as windows, backdoors and gates that you should make sure are secure. Even with all that hard work of securing your entry points, you could still invite “trouble” into your home in the form of a worker who you haven’t checked out. Whether the job is big or small, you should get to know a lot about the company you’re hiring.

Atlanta

One of the first impressions that a company can make would be on their website. If a business’ website looks like it was just slapped together, then what does that say about them?

It should also provide an area where customers can make comments. You’ll find that the Junk King web site takes care of all of those items plus a lot more. You’ll be able to see the history of Junk King and of the Atlanta branch. You should feel confident in hiring Junk King for your junk removal task and that is just what that website can provide.

Finally, Junk King takes great strides to make our environment safe. That happens every time they can avoid dumping something at an area landfill. Junk King would much rather take the time to drop something off at a local charity or certified recycling center. That’s just the way they do business. Junk King equals safe junk removal. Call them today to get your junk cleared away.
