Do you have any plans for the upcoming weekend? You might start thinking about those plans starting on Monday and by Friday you can’t wait for quitting time. Then on Saturday you’re slapped with the harsh reality of having to do all those tasks you’ve been putting off. The choice is let them go for another week and face the wrath of your living partner or get the job done once and for all. If one of those jobs is junk removal, then you’re in luck. Hiring a company like Junk King will get that task done in plenty of time for you to enjoy your weekend.
When you set up a junk removal appointment with Junk King, you’ll be asked to set aside a two-hour window. That is a lot better than waiting all day for the phone company to show up! Usually, the Junk King crew will show up with plenty of time to spare in that two hours. Once they roll up, you’ll show the crew what you want removed. They’ll size it all up and then present you with an estimate based on how much space your junk will fill on the back of the truck. It all comes down to volume and that is a very fair approach to pricing. When you agree to the estimate, the Junk King crew will spring into action. They’ll be working for as long as it takes to load up your stuff. That could literally be under ten minutes.
Before leaving, the Junk King crew will sweep up the area that just cleared. They’ll head off and you can get back to your weekend. Of course, for Junk King the work is far from over. They still have to sort through all the collected material back at the depot. They do this to pull out any item that might be worthy of recycling or donating. That is extra time that you don’t have to worry about paying for.
The only time that Junk King might stay longer is if they need to take on a bigger job like dismantling something. Even with that, you won’t be paying extra. Everything is covered in that original estimate. If you want to get your junk removal taken care of and still have the weekend to enjoy, then Junk King is the only way to go.
The first tip you need to embrace about moving is “don’t panic!” That should be coupled with “don’t wait until the last minute to start packing.” The last thing you want is to be scrambling around your home tossing things into boxes while the movers are waiting to load. That’s going to cost you money and cause a lot of stress. Instead, take the “two boxes a day approach.” If you know you’re moving out in 30 days, pack two boxes of stuff a day. Obviously, you’ll want to start with all the things you won’t need over the next 30 days. Things like books, CDs, DVDs and keepsakes are a good place to start.
When it comes to cleaning up Philadelphia parks, nothing beats the hard work of volunteers. Recently a group of 27 members from NewPointe Community Church got together to clean up a former tent encampment left over from a homeless man over at Bluebell Drive. The former occupant was ordered to move out and was forced to leave behind a bit of a mess. Enter the church folks who rolled up their sleeves to pitch in for the effort. There were even commemorative T-shirts made for the special occasion. It’s a perfect example of the good-natured folks living in Philly.
When it comes to great BBQ, there are a lot of options here in Bucks County. Big Bob’s BBQ Pit has gotten rave reviews which probably explains all the long lines. Over at the Dancing Pig BBQ, they’ve created a legion of loyal customers ever since they opened their doors. The only thing better that BBQ from one of these shacks is the BBQ you grill on your own. However, if your grill isn’t up to the task it might be time to make a swap and get a new model.
Typically, home downsizing is often thought of for retirees as a way to carve out a more manageable lifestyle. However, more and more younger couples are thinking about downsizing their lives as a way of preparing for eventual retirement. It all comes down to a matter of financial security and planning. The most obvious downsizing consideration is to make a move from a big house to a smaller living space like a condo or loft apartment. A move might facilitate being closer to family members or to a job. It might also make sense to move from a noisy, urban neighborhood to a more serene suburban setting. Either way, the goal should be to make your life less complicated.
As you work your way through your spring-cleaning chores you might stumble upon some e-waste that you’d love to get rid of. Unfortunately, these items can no longer be put out to the curb for pickup. You can thank the Covered Device Recycling Act that became law in January. There is a good reason for this. Anything that has electronic components like a computer, printer or TV could also have hazardous materials that would be released if those things are left to rust or decompose in a landfill. There is good news and bad news when it come to getting rid of your old e-waste junk.
Is it time for a new TV? Did you have to suffer through the Super Bowl with a blurry image? Did the red carpet of the Oscars look dull? If you’re tired of your old tube then you should be thinking about an upgrade. The first thing you’ll discover as you go shopping for a TV at places like Best Buy is that everything is a flat screen. That’s actually a good thing because now even the basic of models will be delivering you high quality picture and sound and you won’t be busting your budget to achieve that good look.
