Junk Removal

With the start of school, time spent together as a family can be rare. Kids are in and out of the house – at school, with friends, and participating in extracurricular activities. Parents play taxi service for their young children, juggling work, running a household, and their own hobbies and friends.

With everyone managing their own busy lives, it’s alarmingly easy to amass items no one needs or uses. Clothes that don’t fit, shoes rarely worn, pool toys outgrown, yard work tools collecting dust. This clutter of things takes up space in your home that could be used more wisely.

At Junk-King Austin, we believe that family is of the utmost importance. Our junk removal services will help fee space in your home, garage, attic, business, and shed. Since time spent together as a family is precious, don’t waste it cleaning out the garage. Let Junk-King Austin help leave your home and family in a happier state.

Back To School

Making the transition back to school is a tough time of year for both parents and kids. The sudden changes in daily routine and responsibilities can leave everyone stressed out. Here are some tips to help make the transition easier.

– Reintroduce the Schedule: Two weeks before school starts back, reinstate the school year bed time. Similarly, begin waking your children up earlier and earlier until they wake up at their normal school year wake up time.

– Create a Morning Checklist: Giving kids a concrete list of things they need to take care of can help them get used to their responsibilities, and serves as a reminder so nothing is forgotten.

– Set the House Clocks Ahead: Changing your house clocks so they read 10 minutes fast gives everyone a head start.

With school starting back, you may notice a lot of out-grown clothes, unneeded paperwork, torn backpacks, and other items leftover from school years past. Junk-King Austin will clean out closets, rooms, sheds, garages, and attics, giving you extra time and space to enjoy your family. Junk-King Austin is committed to minimizing waste and serving our community. You can feel even better watching our red trucks drive away with your unwanted clutter knowing that we recycle up to 60% of what we haul away.

Exercise Equipment & Tips

At Junk-King Austin, we know firsthand the need to stay fit and healthy. We also know how hard it can be to pick up healthy habits when life is demanding of our time.

An easy way to get back into the swing of working out is to make your own 30-Day-Challenge. Print it out, hang it on your refrigerator, and cross off each day as you complete your workout. It’s an easy way to hold yourself accountable. Starting a 30-Day-Challenge can also make working out seem less intimidating, since you’re thinking in a 30 day block of time rather than a permanent lifestyle change.

When you draft a 30-Day-Challenge of your own, don’t forget to take stock of your garage or fitness room. It’s easy to accumulate exercise equipment that is no longer your preferred method of pursuing fitness. Junk-King Austin will pick up your old weight sets, exercise equipment, and anything else you no longer want.

Yard Waste and Gardening In Texas

Texas is notorious for having hot summers. For those who want a fall vegetable garden, this means putting in some extra sweat in July and August. These are the perfect months to put in raised beds, till the earth, and prepare the soil.

If you are new to gardening, here are some tips:

  •  Hot, dry weather can be difficult to start seeds. Try soaking larger seeds (beans, peas, okra, etc) overnight between two wet paper towels.
  • Frequent watering (several times a day) immediately after planting can help seeds germinate. After it sprouts, don’t forget to cut back on water – young plants can drown.
  • Although some authorities recommend full sun for plants like peppers and tomatoes, we understand that Texas summers can be scorching. Try to plant your garden in an area that provides shelter from the afternoon sun.

If you’re considering getting some yard work done, keep Junk-King Austin in mind. We haul yard waste (among other things, including appliances and other unwanted items), meaning you can take a well earned break from the Texas heat while we tidy up your property!

Austin Home Organization Tips

Home organization is a constant process. Whether in the kitchen, bedrooms, study, or garage, there always seems to be unneeded clutter. At Junk-King Austin, we want to help our community in the greater Austin area become more organized.

When unpacking clothes in preparation for the next season, do you ever get the feeling you don’t wear all of them? Here’s a tip to help you determine which clothes to cut from your wardrobe:

In The Closet:
When you first hang up all the clothes for the coming season, hang them up backwards so the hanger points toward you instead of the wall. When you wear the item, hang it back up normally. At the end of the season, get rid of the clothes still hanging the wrong way.

In The Dresser:
When you put away your clothes at the start of a new season, fold and stack them so the necks point toward you. When they are worn and washed, stack them with the necks pointing away. When it’s time to pack up for the next season, get rid of the clothes with the necks still pointing at you.

If you find your attic or garage is full of unwanted clothes, give Junk-King a call and we will pick them up for you, along with anything else you want removed from your home. Not only will we save you time and effort, we recycle up to 60% of what we pick up – making your cleaned space good for your community as well as your home.

Austin Junk Removal

Austin’s number one barbecue spot, Stubbs is offering up some tips to get your grill ready for the summer sizzling. If you have a gas grill, the pros from Stubbs recommend unhooking the propane then inspecting the burners to make sure there is no rust or loose connections. They also suggest that you pull off the grates and scrub them down removing all the caked on gunk. Unlike a good cast iron skillet, you don’t want your BBQ grills covered in charred food. Before using the grill for cooking, go ahead and fire it up and let those flames burn off any remnants of cleaners or loose char.

Of course, cleaning up your grill is just one step to take in order to get your backyard ready for summer. You might also want to bring in Junk King to handle a total junk removal assignment. You’ll have a hard working crew at your disposal to take away things like car parts, construction waste, tires, lawn trimmings, shrubs and even an old BBQ grill. Yes, if your grill is too far gone, then you’ll want to replace it with a new model. Nothing like starting fresh!

When the Junk King crew finishes clearing out the rubbish from your backyard, they can set their sights on the rest of your home. This means you can get all the unused sporting equipment or boxes of rubbish out of your garage. Your basement can finally be cleared of the worn out furniture you’ve been keeping down there. Think of this as a total home decluttering. Isn’t that something you’ve been itching to do?

With regard to pricing, Junk King is surprisingly affordable. You’re only going to be charged a flat rate based on the amount of space that your junk will fill up on the back of the truck. This is a very low price compared to what it would cost if you had to hire your own movers, rent your own truck and give up time out of your workday. With Junk King, the rate is all inclusive.

You’ll also be doing your part for the environment. That’s because Junk King makes every effort to keep the bulk of what they collect out of area landfills. Instead, they would rather see your junk get recycled or dropped off to a charity. Start your summer with junk removal done right by the pros at Junk King.

Austin Junk Hauling
