Often when we talk to homeowners or Realtors after a house cleanout we have a common exchange. In an effort to clear out a home, the homeowners had hoped to donate their clutter that had accumulated over the years. While we can appreciate the sentiment behind this (we donate too), the fact remains that many large donation groups are highly selective about what they can take.
Many charitable operations will NOT take the following:
- Large appliances – stoves, washers, dryers, refrigerators, dishwashers, TVs or console stereos
- Mattresses and box springs
- Auto parts – tires, batteries
- Venetian blinds, curtain rods, Window Treatments
- Furniture with slight tears
- Hot Tubs
- Swingsets
- Magazines
- Wire hangers
- Building materials
In contrast, Junk King WILL take just about anything besides hazardous waste. We, too, believe in donations and we work with several local organizations. We will sort through your “junk” for you and anything we think can be repurposed we will salvage.
What does this mean for you? Well, rather than sorting through piles of clutter and making multiple trips or phone calls, we will do it all in one shot. We will do the heavy lifting and sorting for you. Cleaning out a home is stressful enough without having to pick through junk with a fine-toothed comb. When you hire us, you pay by the truckload and not by our time. And when we say “truckload” we are not talking about a pick up truck. Our trucks can fit about 6 times the load of a standard pickup truck.
If you need assistance clearing out your home, consider choosing professional help and give us a call. We will be glad to help!
