Summer Cleaning Blues – Let Junk King Be your Junk Hauler

Summer is nearly here and it’s a great time to get your business cleaned and organized, especially if you missed the boat on spring cleaning. Junk King can help you get your business in tip-top shape by hauling away your junk and trash. Our high-quality services focus on customer satisfaction, professionalism, and responsible disposal of waste products. How can your business benefit from a thorough summer cleaning? Here are four ways:

 Peace, love, and organization 

Nobody can deny that a clean, organized work-space inspires a sense of calm. Being able to easily access important items makes the workday so much easier. Good organization starts with going through all of your stuff and getting rid of anything that is no longer useful. Old or broken merchandise, outdated books and manuals, and last year’s display and decorations are all things that may need to be tossed. After you sort through everything, you can implement an organizational system for the things that remain. Junk King will come and haul away the stuff that needs to go. You not only help your employees feel comfortable but also decrease your employee turn over rate by having friendly surroundings.

 Discourage pests, bugs, and critters Summer-Cleaning-Blues-Let-Junk-King-Be-your-Junk-Hauler-Junk-king-CA

Clean, open spaces offer few hiding places for unwanted bugs and rodents. On the other hand, stacks of boxes, old papers, and lots of clutter tend to act as an open invitation to creepy-crawlers. If you don’t want mice setting up shop in unused packing material or spiders laying eggs in the dark recesses of your business, a little cleaning will go a long way. It’s doubly important to address this in the summer when pests are more active. Disposing of junk and trash will help remove environments that harbor pests and also give you the opportunity to identify and remove existing infestations.

 A penny saved is a penny earned

Have you ever had one of those experiences where you buy something you need only to go home and realize you already had it? Doing this at your business can cost you money that could be better spent elsewhere. Getting your business organized helps you figure out exactly what you have and what you need. Plus, going through and clearing out your old stuff makes room for new merchandise or equipment. Not to mention, getting rid of old stuff and utilizing your space more efficiently may help you avoid the need for storage space, further saving you money.

 Give your business a makeover

Getting your stuff organized gives you the perfect opportunity to redecorate your shop, paint walls, rearrange displays, or any other fun DIY projects. If you’re already going to be cleaning and moving stuff around, you might as well go all the way! Businesses that sell products directly to the public can benefit from changing things up regularly. It’s a good way to draw existing customers back for another look. Plus, you can attract new customers who may just be curious. Social media is a great way to tell customers about changes and updates. Even if your company doesn’t sell products at a storefront, sprucing things up can still help boost your productivity. You can move work-spaces around so that they are more comfortable for your employees or set up a more pleasant waiting area. It all starts with cleaning up and having your old junk hauled away by Junk King.

Summer cleaning may not be the most pleasant task on your to-do list, but it is a necessary one. Instilling a sense of order, preventing pests, saving money, and giving your business a face-lift are all benefits of cleaning up. Junk King can help make the process easier by hauling away your unwanted items and disposing of them responsibly so contact us when you have junk hauling needs. 

What To Do With Your Junk?

Junk is a lot like traffic – you don’t really notice that it’s there until you’re overwhelmed by it. At first you have one or two unused pieces of furniture around your home or a few underemployed printers at the office – remember fax machines? – then you find yourself overrun by 20th-century technology.

When we say “junk” that actually includes more than you might think. The average American gets over 40 pounds of junk mail every year. That’s junk. Did you also know that Americans also eat, on average, 35 to 40 tons of food in their lifetime!

While there’s a lot of viable food (and food waste) that goes along with that, there’s also a whole lot of soiled cups, bowls and utensils that – if not recyclable in the form of aluminum cans, paper, or glass – should be considered junk.

How to Dispose of Junk 

The point is that just looking around our homes and offices we can spot a lot of junk: Some of which can be disposed of in our daily trash pickup while other kinds of junk are actually bulky waste that require special pickup.

And yet other kinds of junk could be categorized as recyclable material, electronic waste, yard refuse, construction debris, or even hazardous waste that we need to be careful around.

  • Recyclable Materials

First up are recyclable materials that might accidentally get lumped in with junk, but actually constitute items that can be put to further use.

What-To-Do-With-Your-Junk-junk-king-marin-CAThe average person, believe it or not, makes the mistake of confusing junk and recyclable materials pretty often – nearly three million tons of otherwise recyclable aluminum are tossed away every year instead of thrown into the blue recycling bin.

Office paper that you have sitting around, corrugated cardboard that may have once housed a package that you received in the mail, and old newspapers and paperboard should also be categorized as recyclable materials rather than junk. Newspapers are made from recyclable fiber and can, therefore, usually be recycled.

The interesting thing is that a lot of the glossy magazines out today can also be recycled because recycling technology has improved so much over the years. That’s something to bear in mind when eying your regular trash can instead of the blue recycling one when touting your magazines to the curb.

  • Electronic Waste

Electronic waste, or e-waste, is a term that we use referring to used or obsolete electronics that you have collecting dust in your home office or place of work.

https://www.calrecycle.ca.gov/electronics/whatisewaste/

Because of high turnover in the tech industry and the rate of change today, more electronic waste is being generated than ever before.

Things like old desktops, keyboards, printers and obsolete DVD players are obviously electronic waste, but household appliances like microwaves and dishwashers might also qualify since there’s no hard-and-fast definition of what is and isn’t e-waste.

Just make sure that if you use a department store’s e-waste recycling program that you’re not turning in something that would be better categorized as hazardous or bulky waste.

  • Bulky Waste

Bulky waste (a.k.a., bulky refuse) are items like HVAC units and certain dishwashers that are too large for regular trash collection. You might need the help of a junk removal company like Junk King to take these items off your hands.

/locations/marin

Why? Because Junk King can pick up bulky waste items like yard refuse, mattresses, large appliances and foreclosure clean out items using heavy-duty devices like grapple trucks. Junk King can also help you remove construction waste and e-waste like old televisions that you aren’t sure are recyclable. Set up an appointment online today!

3 Secrets To Organizing Your Garage

If you have been thinking about organizing your garage, do not delay one more moment. Organizing the garage can be a bit of a pain but once you get it done, you'll feel a sense of relief and you'll have a beautiful looking garage where you can find everything with ease. Let's take a look at a few secrets that will help you get the job done efficiently and thoroughly.

Tip #1: Take Care of Those “Dump and Forget” Spaces First

Just about every garage has one or more “dump and forget” areas that homeowners put their excess items into. We are all guilty of dropping things off in these spaces and trying to forget about just how messy that part of the garage has become. Organizing the garage will be much easier if you tend to this space first. Go through all those extraneous items and figure out what you are likely to use in the future, what can be scrapped and what can be donated. Do yourself and your family an enormous favor by eliminating as much as possible. Doing so will clear out the unnecessary items, make it easier to find what you need and also boost the garage's aesthetics. Once you get this dreaded space out of the way, the rest of the garage will be quite easy to organize in comparison.

Tip #2: Create Boundaries While Organizing Your Garage

Organizing your garage means establishing specific places for specific items. These “zones” will help you keep the garage organized across posterity as long as you inform everyone in the house about which items belong in certain spaces. Ideally, the center of the garage will be reserved for your vehicle(s). However, you should take care to leave some additional space so you can reach upward and outward with cargo, snow brushes etc. Don't forget to leave enough space on the sides so you and your passengers can open the car doors with ease.

Tip #3: A Workbench can do More Than Serve as a Storage Space

When deciding on zones for your garage, you should leave a spot to work on home projects. You will need enough room for your work bench and possibly a pegboard. Leave enough space for not only the bench but also yourself so you have enough elbow room to build, repair and store sundries.

Organizing Your Garage can Result in Excessive Debris

Once you have finished organizing your garage, you will likely find that you have more items than you originally anticipated. Do not attempt to store those excess tools and yard supplies in your garage's newly designated zones. Those items should not be stored in the basement either. You will only be creating more problems for yourself down the road if you try to keep absolutely everything.

Do not hesitate to reach out to Junk King for assistance in cleaning out your garage, yard, home or business. Our junk removal specialists will get rid of all those undesired items that your family no longer uses. Give us a call, schedule an appointment and Junk King's junk removal experts will contact you before arriving in our signature big red truck.

We make every effort to recycle old items at recycling hubs as we are committed to preserving the planet for current and future generations.

Use a Professional Furniture Removal Company Instead of Heavy Lifting

Getting rid of old furniture? Furniture removal is within the wheelhouse of full-service and eco-friendly junk removal companies. Take some of the weight off your shoulders and get in contact today.

Reasons to Get Professional Furniture Removal Help 

It’s pretty uncommon that people actively want to do heavy lifting, unless we’re talking about football players getting into playing shape.

Mostly people worry about the additional expense and hassle of delegating out the lifting to a professional junk removal company, which kicks off our first reason:

  • Affordability

Junk removal companies usually price according to the quantity of junk that you need removed from your property.

For most homeowners this means that they can have all of their excess furniture removed in just one junk removal truck, which ensures savings.

If you’re not sure all of your excess furniture can be taken away in one truck, then you can always get a free estimate without any purchasing obligations stapled to it. An upfront price guarantee locks in quoted rates and guarantees the lowest possible price.

  • Safety

Junk removal, especially furniture removal, can be dangerous work as it entails lugging around potentially hundreds of pounds of cumbersome desks, bureaus and couches. Delegating the work out to a full-service junk removal company gives you an added sense of safety and peace of mind.

Too often moving or furniture removal is associated with frayed nerves and a just-get-it-done attitude that’s anything but safe. By going with a professional, you free up your hands for more important things and can rest assured that your home will be respected.

A professional junk removal service hires qualified, insured personnel who have hundreds of furniture removal jobs under their belt. This greatly decreases the chances of a mishap, and brings up to our next point…

  • Experienced

Knowing what can (and can’t) be recycled or the best place to take your old furniture can be overwhelming. Professional junk removers already have the answers since they’ve been there before.

Whether you’re staring wide-eyed at a skein of cables in your dining room or a formidable mass of junk in you garage, you know how frustrating it is knowing that something needs to be done but not having the resources to efficiently complete the job.

Professionals have seen a similar job in the past and are ready to get down to work…on your schedule.

  • Full-service

While a junk removal company is removing furniture from your home, you could also have old appliances and yard waste taken off your hands. Whatever will fit in the truck can be hauled off of your property for a low, flat rate.

Up to this point we’ve mainly been talking about homeowners, but property managers and other business owners can benefit as well.

If you need regular garbage removal, cleanouts following a business takeover or building foreclosure, or even hundreds of defunct computers and other e-waste taken off the premises, a full-service junk removal service is your best bet for crossing items off your to-do list.

  • Ease

Professional junk removers have a narrow work window in which they’ll come to your residence or place and business and immediately get down to work.

You can often get online discounts, free on-site estimates and lock in a great price for your next junk removal project. Contact Junk King-Marin for prompt, efficient service and your free estimate today.

Moving? 5 Tips to Keep it Green with Junk Removal

Moving? 5 Tips to Keep it Green with Junk Removal Junk-King Marin While we’ve all moved, few of us have consciously made a “green move”. A green move involves a bit of preparation and plenty of junk removal. The first step in any green move is to drastically reduce the amount that you have to haul. This is precisely why a professional junk removal service is essential to a quick, clean, light and easy move.

Eliminate Everything That is Unnecessary with Junk Removal

When it is time to make your next move, do not merely load up all of your belongings into boxes and stack them into a moving truck. Go through all of your possessions from clothing to appliances and electronics to determine what you really need. Create separate piles for “must haves”, “donations” and “junk removal”. Then hold a garage sale and call up Junk King to get rid of everything that is not truly necessary for your new digs. With less items to move, you will have decreased costs as movers typically charge according to the weight of your items.

Rent Plastic Crates

Instead of asking friends and family for used boxes, go ahead and rent plastic crates. Plastic crates can be reserved online, delivered and then picked up at your new digs. This is a much more green option than using those old cardboard boxes that tend to break when carried.

Consider the Type of Moving Truck

Nowadays, it is possible to research the types of moving trucks that various moving companies use. A surprising number of moving companies are using trucks that operate on comparatively clean biodiesel. It might take half an hour of research and a couple phone calls to find a local moving company that has these types of green trucks but you will be doing your part to preserve the environment.

Use Eco-friendly Moving Supplies

Aside from the plastic crates mentioned above, there are all sorts of planet-friendly moving supplies available for those who need to make a move. You can find 100% recyclable packing materials that will keep Earth green and clean. You can even obtain biodegradable eco-bubble wrap for your move as well. Don’t be afraid to ask your moving company for used boxes or crates made of recyclable materials as well. Plenty of these companies will even provide you with a refund if you return unused boxes at the end of the move.

Use Real Popcorn Instead of Foam Popcorn

While it is tempting to use foam peanuts and popcorn to secure your fragile items in moving boxes, do not give into temptation. You can do the environment a big favor by using real popcorn. Go ahead and pop the kernels but don’t add the salt and butter! Real popcorn can fill in the gaps in your boxes to keep your fragile items safe and sound throughout the moving process. This way, you won’t have to trash the foam peanuts or let them sit in the basement until your next move. Once you have settled into your new digs, feed your used popcorn to the birds to complete the ultimate green move.

Lean on Junk-King to Facilitate Your Green Move

The junk removal experts at Junk-King are ready to help you make your move as green as possible. Give us a call today and we will schedule a two-hour window for the pickup of all of your junk. We can remove just about anything (as long as it’s non-hazardous) from your home or business. We won’t make a mess and we will make every effort to reuse, recycle or donate your unwanted items. Reach out to us by dialing 1-888-888-5865 (JUNK) or visit our website.

Enjoy Easy Home Improvement Cleanup With the Help of Junk Removal

Enjoy Easy Home Improvement Cleanup With the Help of Junk Removal Junk-King MarinHome improvement is the best way to make a house feel more like a real home for you; it is also a great way to upgrade the value of a house to sell it for a greater profit. Regardless of why you want to make some home improvements, one thing is for certain: you will end up with a lot of junk to clear out by the time you are finished. Getting rid of this junk on your own is a difficult undertaking. The best way to take care of this big problem is by hiring the help of a professional junk removal service.

Why should I hire a professional junk removal service?

While it is “technically” possible to do junk removal on your own, you never should. Here are the reasons why:

You don’t have to find a place to keep the junk out of the way

As junk accumulates throughout the course of your home improvement project, you will have to find a way to keep it out of the way. First, you will simply shuffle it around so that it doesn’t interfere with your home improvement endeavors; then, you will have to move it somewhere as a part of the cleanup process. Even after this, however, the junk will your problem to deal with; storing it is a waste of money and keeping garish junk in and around your house defeats the purpose of your home improvement project (it is also safety hazard, since the sight of random junk can attract curious thieves).

Trying to manage junk removal on your own can cause a lot of problems,

The city won’t take your junk like they take your trash

Junk removal isn’t as simple as throwing out the trash. Unlike basic waste disposal, your city’s local sanitation workers won’t come and pick it up — in fact, you may be fined after putting large pieces of junk on the curb.

You have to transport the junk yourself

If you are handling junk removal yourself, that is exactly what you are doing: handling it yourself. This means that you have to first locate someone who will even take your junk in the first place, and this is the easy part. Next, you need to procure transportation for your junk removal — even if you have a pickup truck on hand, this is a problem when you have large pieces of junk. Finally, you have to load the junk up and transport it yourself; this can be dangerous, as lifting heavy objects yourself can lead to injury. Even hiring professional movers for this task is a bad idea, because they will charge you exorbitant fees for something that shouldn’t be all that expensive. The safest, most cost-effective, most efficient junk removal option is to hire the services of a junk removal pro.

You could end up making a mistake

Hauling your junk off to the wrong place can cause big problems for you. This is because there’s no way that you can be certain about whether or not your junk will actually be accepted; if it isn’t, then you will waste a trip.

Don’t waste your time trying to figure out what to do with your post-removal junk — just hire a pro

You started your home improvement project so that you could enjoy — or profit from — an upgraded home, not so that you could figure out how to get rid of a huge pile of worthless junk. Make sure that you minimize your costs, protect your safety and ultimately get rid of your junk, hire the services of a junk removal pro.

 

Moving House – Furniture Removal, Packing Materials and Packing

Moving House - Furniture Removal, Packing Materials and Packing Junk King MarinWhether you’re making the trek across the country or simply having a large portion of your home remodeled, furniture removal will probably be an issue for you.

Oftentimes the remodeling company’s junk removal services simply won’t be adequate enough to allow you to move on with your life.

When you want to save time, money and energy and give yourself more peace of mind during the stressful moving season, consider hiring a junk removal company for furniture removal and other kinds of heavy lifting.

Benefits of a Furniture Removal Company 

Moving from one area to another usually requires the help of a junk removal company, especially when it comes to furniture removal.

Some items – furniture, large appliances, and other hefty pieces of trash – can’t be put into your normal trash. In fact, large pieces of furniture might require a permit or long drive to a landfill just to get it off your hands.

There’s also this practical reality – when you’re getting ready to move and finally have all of your belongings packed up and ready to go, the last thing that you want to hold you back is junk removal.

Hiring a junk removal company for a one-off pickup of all of your refuse can save you the time, money and the energy of having to make all of the arrangements yourself. A junk removal company can remove old furniture, battered appliances, mattresses and various kinds of yard waste.

Although a junk removal company can take away any refuse that you need off of your property, making sure to bundle your fragile materials and use quilted furniture pads where electronics are concerned can also significantly reduce your moving hassle.

Furniture Removal Enables a Smooth Transition 

Since you probably don’t have a vehicle that can quickly transport a used mattress, broken air conditioner and cumbersome pieces of furniture, getting help for a respected junk removal company that has your (and the environment’s) best interest at heart is the way to go.

A professional junk removal company has a fleet of vehicles designed specifically for hauling away large articles of refuse. Having a fleet of insured vehicles also gives you far greater peace of mind than would be the case if you had to, for instance, tie a mattress down onto your roof and get onto the highway.

Just make sure that when you do move you leave the heavy lifting to the junk removal company. Here’s another tip: Try putting lighter, more durable items (e.g., pillows) into large boxes and heavier, perhaps more fragile items (e.g., books) in smaller boxes. This can save you a ton of hassle before, during and after your move.

Going with a Professional 

Professional junk removal should be a serious consideration since immediate junk removal works on your schedule and on-site quotes are absolutely free.

Whether you need professional help for furniture removal or the removal of old appliances, mattresses, or other kinds of non-hazardous waste, a professional trash removal company is there to make your transition that much smoother.

A quote without obligations and instant on-site pickup is simply a win-win. Prompt and affordable five-star service can ensure that you have the perfect move.

Bring Your Junk To The Dump Vs. Hiring A Junk Removal Company

Bring Your Junk To The Dump Vs. Hiring A Junk Removal Company Junk King MarinIf you’re planning on visiting the local landfill to get rid of your unwanted appliances, chances are you may be in for a shock when you see how many recyclables are needlessly being dumped and buried.  When dealing with the DIY junk removal process, how will you know which items are unusable as opposed to which ones are worthy of refurbishing? While answers may vary, the main issue here is whether or not you should do this yourself or have a junk removal company come in and take care of the dirty work for you. The advantages and drawbacks listed below may help you make up your mind before making a decision.

DIY Junk Removal Expenses

The word expense isn’t entirely based on how much cash it’ll cost you haul your unwanted items away, yet it may be factored in heavily when deciding how to proceed. First off, having a vehicle big enough to get the job done is a crucial aspect, especially if you have to make more than one trip. Local landfills charge by the individual load; two trips will amount to twice the dumping fee, which also means spending more money on gas.

Aside from the money involved with DIY junk removal, other valuable commodities such as precious time and physical labor will enter the fold. Plan on spending at least half of the day loading and unloading and putting some extra wear and tear on your vehicle. With heavier items in particular, the physical strain of frequent lifting may also take its toll.

Junk Removal and the Trash-Treasure Principal

Truth be told; the junk removal business is mostly a numbers game for most refuse management companies. They’ll end up charging you a hefty fee and move onto the next customer as quickly as possible. Sorting through reusable items is less cost effective than outright dumping, which is a shameful practice by itself. When lining their pockets becomes more important than either recycling or donating salvageable items to people in need, it’s a little easier to see how the game is being played. If one person’s trash is another person’s treasure, needlessly dumping and burying said items can be considered not only wasteful, but immoral as well. It’s also important to  know that not all junk removal operations conduct their business this way; some actually care about what they’re doing to help charitable causes while being environmentally sound as an added bonus.

Junk-King to the Rescue

The folks at Junk-King approach the environment and humanitarian work in a more serious manner. They’ll actually sort through your discarded wares and determine whether or not these items can be used elsewhere, but also recycle the ones that would eventually end up at the city dump, thus putting a completely different spin on the junk removal process.

Junk-King’s business model focuses upon hauling the least amount of actual refuse to landfills and disperses the remaining items to places where they’ll be appreciated the most. Appliances in need of minor repairs are handled accordingly and redistributed to a number of charitable organizations in the area. Those who may not be able to afford the cost of a new refrigerator, washer and dryer, sofa, or any other bulky appliance can rest a little easier knowing that the staff at Junk-King has their best interests at heart.

 The cost of junk removal can be handled in one of three ways. You can take it upon yourself to do the dirty work, hire some random company to dump it at the nearest landfill, or you can hire Junk-King to take care of things responsibly.

Furniture Removal – Ways to Deal With Large Trash

Furniture Removal - Ways to Deal With Large Trash Junk King MarinWhether you’re downsizing, moving long distance, or combining households, if you have furniture you aren’t using anymore, figuring out how to get rid of it can be daunting. That doesn’t have to be the case. With the right information, getting unwanted furniture out of your way and out of your life.

Dos and Don’ts When it Comes to Furniture Removal:

Do: Donate Furniture in Good Condition

As the old saying goes, the poor are always with us. Many people who have lost homes to disasters, are fleeing abusive relationships, or are in otherwise difficult situations don’t have the financial resources to invest in even basic furnishings. Your old, unwanted (but still in good condition) items can help them achieve a decent quality of life. Donating to a charity or charity-run thrift store can also get you a donation credit, which can save you money on your taxes.

Do: Check if Your Community Has Large-Waste Pickup

Many municipalities have large-waste pickup days, which allow you a convenient way to dispose of unwanted large furniture. This may be the best option if you only have a few pieces to dispose of. However, there are some drawbacks. Community waste disposal may charge more than you want to pay for furniture removal, or may make a mess while loading your unwanted items into a standard garbage pickup truck (as large items can sometimes knock smaller pieces of trash out of the truck).

Do: Follow Hazardous Waste Disposal Rules

Though most furniture removal poses no threat to human health or the environment, some items may require special precautions. The chemical refrigerants contained inside most consumer-grade refrigerator coils, for example, are toxic and can easily contaminate the water table. California has some of the strictest health and environmental regulations in the country; disposes of hazardous waste in an improper manner can mean significant fines and even jail time. Save yourself and the planet some stress and follow the rules.

Don’t: Just Dump Your Stuff On the Curb or In a Dumpster

Most communities, including those in Marin County, have laws regarding proper furniture removal, and most private companies that serve the dumpsters at apartment complexes and public facilities have rules regarding dumping. Don’t be tempted to try DIY furniture removal using your curb or someone else’s dumpster. To do so may well be illegal and can cost you far more in fines than paying for proper, professional furniture removal would cost you.

Don’t: Donate Items From Smoking Homes

Many people searching for deals on furniture have health problems, including asthma and allergies. Even being around items removed from homes where people smoke can cause a reaction. You don’t want to be responsible for putting someone else’s health at risk. Also be aware that pets often have issues being around items that smell of cigarette smoke; dogs and cats have very sensitive noses, use scents to make sense of their world, and can suffer stress or health problems if exposed to persistent odors they aren’t familiar with or simply don’t like.

Don’t: Harm Yourself Lifting Your Furniture

Finally, don’t do DIY furniture removal if you have any back, leg, or other health problems that affect your ability to lift. Lifting heavy furniture can exacerbate (or sometimes even cause) serious back problems like slipped disks. Given how much health care costs in the current economy, DIY furniture removal isn’t worth it. What you save on a furniture removal service you’ll end up spending at the doctor.

Junk Removal For Garage Sales

Junk Removal For Garage Sales Junk King MarinHolding a garage sale is a great way to get rid of most your useless junk, and walk away with a wad of cash in the process. What’s more, a running a garage sale is super easy — all you need to do is put together a couple of cheap cardboard signs and scatter all of your junk all around the front yard. Then, you can just sit back, relax and wait until a passerby to ask you about that old table that has been sitting in the basement for the past three or four years.

All of that is pretty awesome, but if you’re like most people, you have probably hoarded away enough stuff to decorate almost an entire house, so you probably won’t sell every last piece of junk that you lay out on your front yard. So what do you do with everything after your garage sale is officially over? The answer to this question is simple: hire a professional junk removal service. Here is why you should go with a pro for your post-garage sale junk removal:

With junk removal, you don’t have to keep your junk

You’re hosting a garage sale to get rid of your junk, and you shouldn’t be forced to toss whatever is left over back into your garage, attic or basement. Junk removal service ensures that this won’t happen, because your leftover junk will end up somewhere else.

You don’t have to worry about any curious thieves wandering onto your property

Even junk can be tempting for a thief. If yours sits out, then a thief could invade your property, creating a dangerous situation, so junk removal is a must to avoid this problem.

Why you shouldn’t handle your junk removal yourself

You don’t have as big of a clean up job after your garage sale is over

It may have been easy to scatter all of your junk around the yard, but cleaning it up won;t be so easy — unless you decide to work with a professional junk removal service. They will do most of the cleanup work for you.

You don’t have to figure out where all of your junk is supposed to go

If you decide to get rid of your extra junk, you have to figure out where you can legally dump it. For this, different materials have different rules, so you will have to call all around town to see if there is even anywhere that will accept your junk at all.. A pro junk removal service makes this a non-factor, because they already know where to take everything.

You don’t have to throw your back out trying to lift your heavier junk

Furniture, older TVs and other types of weighty junk is difficult to carry. Not only is it heavy, but it is awkwardly built, so trying to move it around can be dangerous. While trying to move heavy stuff around, you can drop something on your foot, pull a muscle, hurt your shoulders or throw out your back. Junk removal pros can take this out of the equation as well.

You don’t have to spend all day trying to get all of your junk across town

Even after you’ve figured out where to put it and loaded it up, you still have to get your old stuff there — if a pro junk removal service isn’t doing the grunt work for you.

Dump your extra junk after you’ve sold the good stuff

Make your useless junk a non-factor by hiring a professional junk removal service. To learn more, contact Junk King, America’s Greenest junk removal service.
