Get Rid Of Your Bulky Rubbish The Right Way

Last year, a task force that was made up of law enforcement officials, public works members and health officials came together to tackle the problem of illegal trash dumping. First, they needed to  find out just how pervasive a problem this is across Contra Costa County. They discovered that $1.2 million was spent picking up illegally dumped trash last year. The number of those illegal dumping spots rose by 14% last year and they estimate that the number might go up in another 5% this year. As for the legal dumpers themselves, the task force could be making recommendations of increasing the penalty and even going so far as to seize the car someone caught illegally dumping.

With 660 miles of road in the county there are a lot of spots that can become a dumping ground. It certainly isn’t fair to the residents that take care of their rubbish in a responsible manner.

What Is Up In Your Attic Can Come Down With Help From Junk King

The law of gravity states, “What goes up, must come down.” That might apply to things you’re tossing up in the air but when it comes to things you’ve stored up in your attic, gravity isn’t a factor. Too often we use out attics for storage units and most of what goes into storage is forgotten. The exception would be the holiday decorations that get brought down once a year. Everything else from electronics to clothing to furniture falls into the “out of sight, out of mind” category. If your last trip up to the attic found you be crowded out by clutter, then it is time to bring in Junk King Contra Costa. These junk hauling pros will certainly be able to bring everything down in a single attic clearing session.

Take Care Of Junk Hauling The Right Way
