Your opinion matters. That is the feeling of the city of Aurora as they are teaming up with the National Research Center to conduct a citizen survey. The goal is to find out how the locals feel about a wide range of services provided by the city and state. The surveys were sent out to random voters all throughout Aurora. This is the chance to have your opinion heard and help determine future planning for Aurora.
One issue that folks might have a lot to discuss is the trash pickup. As part of the city charter, it is left up to the home or business owner to arrange for a private company to pick up the trash as least once a week. While the majority of these companies provide a decent service, they certainly aren’t going above and beyond the call of duty. There is also no real method for properly disposing of oversized or bulky items. At least, that was before Junk King Denver came to town. Now, there is an easy way to arrange for a junk pickup and it all begins with a phone call.
When you call into Junk King, you’ll be speaking to a very friendly and helpful dispatch representative. They’ll want to know what you’ll be throwing out. You don’t have to be exact with weights and measurements, but just provide a general idea such as “old sofa” or “used fridge.” No matter what you’re throwing out, you’ll be getting a capable two-man crew and huge truck to get the job done. After setting your appointment, that crew will show for the removal.
Before they start the work, you’ll be provided with an estimate based on how much space your junk will occupy on the back of the truck. There will be no extra charges at the end of the job. When you agree to the amount, the Junk King Denver crew will spring into action. You just have to tell them what you want taken away and watch that stuff fly out the door.
After all of your junk is loaded, you can say good-bye to the crew and go about your business. As for the Junk King team, they’ve still got work to do. They’ll be making a drop off to the nearest recycling facility. This is where they deposit most of the stuff they collect. Junk King is doing its part to keep Aurora green! Are you ready to become junk free?
What are your plans for Earth Day? Living in Denver means you’ll have a lot of options. For instance, the City and County of Denver is planning to host “Earth Day Denver 2012: Savings for You and Your Planet.” This event is going to be held in the City and County Building Plaza. According to the official statement: “This year’s Earth Day Fair will highlight actions and investments that residents and businesses can make to save money and reduce their impact on the environment by reducing their consumption of energy, fuel, and water. Several city agencies will be represented, and will showcase recent efforts to improve the environment and our bottom line. Those looking to test their sustainability knowledge could win prizes, including the grand prize of two free tickets to see Denver’s own, The Fray performing at Red Rocks Amphitheatre on Sat., May 12.”
Since its opening, the 16th Street Mall in downtown Denver has attracted plenty of tourists and locals alike. It’s become the hot spot for dining, shopping and simply hanging out with a good friend. Because of all the business that it does and all the people that it attracts on a daily basis there is a need for proper garbage management at the mall.
