Give Your Old Carpets To Junk King For Quick Removal

Ask any homeowner if they have something they want to get rid of in their house and it’s a safe bet everyone will have a list. It could be a short list consisting of an old chair or a bag of clothes from the closet. It could also be a very big list with all kinds of rubbish items from a garage, attic or basement. Some of those items might not be directly getting in the way of that homeowner but other things would need to be removed ASAP. That would certainly be true with old carpets and that is something Junk King Portland can be a big help with.

Rolled up carpets in a home usually mean that home is getting new carpets. For that to happen, the room needs to be totally empty. Sliding a heavy roll of carpet from one room to the next isn’t going to help things. Instead, the two-man moving crew from Junk King can swiftly get that roll of carpet carried out of the house and onto their truck. It will be as if it was never there!

After the old carpets are loaded up, it would be a good opportunity to go back to that list of items to be removed from the home. With the movers and the truck, there is no limit to what can be hauled away. What would be on your list? Whether it is an old couch or old water heater, the crew from Junk King won’t have a problem getting it out of your home.

That Junk King truck doesn’t just have to be filled with the things from inside your house. The Junk King squad can also help clear your yards of any kind of debris from leftover construction waste to patio furniture. All you have to do is decide what you want taken away and you don’t have to worry about how heavy it is or how bulky it is. If you want it gone then that is good enough for Junk King. Hiring Junk King Portland to get rid of your old carpets can be the first step towards having a totally junk free home.

Responsible Old AC Disposal

There are a lot of things you can proactively do that would reduce your carbon footprints. On the list of big things would be switching your home to a solar energy system. On the small things list you can bring your own bags to the grocery store to cut down on plastic bags. Then there are the things you can do that can have a big impact on the environment but you don’t have to be “hands on” with. Consider an old AC unit disposal. This is something that definitely needs to be handled in an environmentally friendly way and that’s a perfect job for Junk King Portland. They won’t actually be handling the dismantling of the unit but they’ll make sure it gets to the right facility.

When Junk King set up operations in Portland one of the first things they sought out to do was to identify all the players in the recycling industry. Not every recycling facility is the same. Some deal strictly with papers and plastics while others are focuses on metals. Then there are those certified facilities that are set up to handle the more complicate recycling associated with electronics and air conditioners. Does this mean that Junk King makes several drops offs as part of their disposal routines? It does and they don’t have a problem with that!

Removing an old AC from your home also requires the help of at least two dedicated movers. That is exactly what Junk King will provide. Once they’ve loaded your old unit onto the back of the truck, you can tap the crew to continue clearing all the other unwanted items from your home. This is a perfect change to finally toss out that recliner or futon that nobody wants to sit on. Think about all the rubbish that you’re keeping in your garage. All of that can be quickly cleared away by Junk King, too.

Start with your old AC disposal and finished with a clutter free home. One session with Junk King Portland can make a huge difference.

Why Strong Inventory Management Matters

When it comes to inventory management, big ecommerce giants like Amazon are leading the way with innovation and increased productivity. What they’re learning about inventory management is probably being taught in business schools all across the country. Of course, not every company has the resources or massive inventory that Amazon does. That doesn’t mean that inventory management isn’t important. It matters to the success of every business, large and small. Here’s why:

winery-667707_1280

It Helps Avoid Spoilage

Grocery stores and restaurants are all about expiration dates. Making sure products are on the shelves and selling before they expire is crucial. It is just as important to remove those items who have hit their expiration date. Without strong inventory management practices some of those items could be headed for spoilage that can cause major problems for your business.

It Helps Avoid Dead Stock

Dead stock is stock that can no longer be sold. This doesn’t mean it has “expired” as much as gone out of style. There could also be stock that is seasonal. Already there are Halloween decorations being sold but you won’t see a lot of them on November 1st!

It Saves on Storage Costs

One of the other goals for strong inventory management is to make the most of your storage space. Obviously, if you have a huge warehouse to utilize, storage might not be an issue but cost would be. Are you paying to store things you’re not selling? Some small businesses need an inventory overflow storage unit. It makes sense if the business is expanding but not if that storage is being used for the “dead stock.”

Once you have identified the unwanted inventory that is taking up valuable storage space, you’ll want to hire Junk King Portland. These are the junk hauling pros that can clear out any storage space in no time at all. Junk King provides a moving crew who will do all the work. That means your own workers can stay focused on their tasks. Junk King will also send over a truck big enough to haul away what you need to get rid of. Regular sessions with Junk King Portland can go a long way towards opening up storage space and improving inventory management for your company. Get started today.

Improve Your Next Vacation With These Smart Airport Tips

Somewhere, someone is heading to an airport to go vacation. Maybe that will be you in a few weeks. The majority of travelers will admit that the most stressful part of going on vacation is the airport trip. This has less to do with turbulence and more to do with the crowds and restrictions. Here are some smart airport tips that can improve your next vacation.

Find the Best Seats

Snagging a good price on a flight is always helpful but it is just as important to get a good seat. Like many movie theatres, airlines now let you pick your preferred seat. If you book early enough you’ll be able to score that perfect combination of legroom and comfort. Try using Seat Guru to pick your spot.

Snap a Parking Lot Picture

If you’re using long term parking (or any parking for that matter!) for your airport travels, then be sure to snap a photo of the parking space before you head to the shuttle. This will make it easy to find you car upon your return.

Hydrate Before, During and After

Staying hydrated is key to defeating jet lag and preventing illness. An empty water bottle is allowed through security and can be filled up on the other side. Once on board, always take the water when offered along with any other drink of your choice. And while you’re waiting for your luggage, drink up.

Empty Your Pockets While in Line

You will probably have time while standing in the security line to get ready for your scan. It can help to remove all the things in your pockets like keys and coins and put them in your carryon. The same for belts and anything else that is metallic. This will help you breeze through the scan quicker.

Weigh Your Bags at Home

Some airlines charge extra for bags that are over the weight limit. You should weight your bag at home so you’ll know what to expect. You can also pack lighter if there are laundry services at your hotel. Splurge for the pick up and drop off. After all, you’re on vacation!

Before you leave, you might want to take care of some household chores you’ve been putting off. This will allow you to come home to a clean house and without anything to do. It’s a good way to keep that vacation vibe going. Junk King Portland can help with this goal. Think about all the things you’ve been meaning to get rid of. They can all be gone in one session with Junk King. Extend the good feelings of your vacation by having Junk King Portland remove all rubbish in your home before you go.

Where To Find Professional Junk Hauling Help In Gresham

There is a perfect example of what some dedicated clean up can accomplish right here in Gresham. Look no further than the Japanese garden on Tsuru Island. This is a tiny island that is part of Main City Park that became a dumping ground. It was once littered with makeshift shacks, trash and junked cars. Thanks to the dedication of a group of volunteers, the park was turned around and built into a place of peace and serenity. It has even become a designated visiting spot promoted by the Gresham Chamber of Commerce and Visitor’s Center.

Best Approach For Junk Hauling In West Linn

A home is going up for auction in West Linn in a few weeks. That is not unusual until you consider the scope and size of this particular home. It is actually a shell of a mansion that was started almost 20 years ago in a secluded section of West Linn. The property belongs to Mark Wattles who once own Hollywood Video stores. The 50,000-square-foot home sits on 32 acres of farmland. It is a complete structure lacking windows. The interior doesn’t have plumbing or wiring yet but the “bare bones” are there for an incredible mansion. So far, $12 million was spent on the property but it could sell for significantly less.
