A backyard shed can become an extension of your home storage areas. With a shed, you’ll be storing a lot of things that could survive the elements. That means you won’t be keeping your wine collection in the shed! But you can keep gardening tools, camping gear, sporting gear and pool tools. Some of those items might still be in use but what about the rest? The minute those things become broken or worn out is the minute they become junk. Enter Junk King Sacramento.

When you set up a junk removal session with Junk King you’ll be dispatched a dedicated moving crew. You’ll direct this team to remove all those things from the shed that you want to get rid. It doesn’t matter if they’re rusty or heavy. The crew can handle both.

Before they start loading up your clutter and rubbish, the team from Junk King needs to size things up. One quick look is all they’ll need to provide you with an estimate. That estimate will be based how the truck is going to be packed up. These crews like to get as much on the truck as possible so that can make as many picks up as possible. That means they’ll work hard to load your stuff into a small space. That means a small fee on the other side.

Once you agree to the price, it will be locked in. There are many satisfied Junk King customers who come back two and three times. Apartment managers and businesses are regular customers. But if you want to get everything removed in a single session, then Junk King Sacramento will be happy to oblige. Don’t carry shed clutter and house rubbish into the New Year. Give it all to Junk King Sacramento today.

Clean Up the Entryway

The first stop any holiday guest will make will be at your front door. You might have the outside beautifully decorated but what’s the first thing they going to see when they step inside? If your front door is your home’s unofficial “mud room,” then you want to take steps to make sure all the shoes are picked up and the coats are hung where they should be. It might be time to introduce some wicker baskets for those shoes and designate a specific basket for each family member.

Make Room in Your Coat Closet

It’s a safe bet that all your guests will be wearing coats. You can throw them on your bed but that can create problems when it’s time to retrieve them. Instead, it makes more sense to make room in that hallway closet where you hang your family coats. You could also bring in a standing coat rack just for the holidays.

Stock Up On Guests Supplies

If some of your holiday guests will be spending the night, then you need to stock up on supplies. Think about getting additional towels, sheets, pillows, blankets or comforters. You could also set up guest baskets with tiny shampoos, conditioners, lotions and soaps. Whatever personal touches you can make will certainly be appreciated.

Think About Clearing Out Storage

Your overnight guests don’t want to live out of a suitcase. If you can make room in a dresser or guest room closet, then that is what you should do. It might mean putting some of your things in storage. Better yet, you could discover that a lot of stuff you’re holding onto could actually be tossed out. That’s where Junk King Sacramento comes into play. One session with these expert junk haulers will have your home cleared of all kinds of unwanted clutter. The best approach to getting your home ready for your holiday guests is a junk removal session with Junk King Sacramento.

Tips For Hosting An Estate Sale

If you have been put in charge of an estate, then that means you need to dispose of a lot of property. We are not just talking about house but all the things inside the house. The first step towards getting that house cleared out in order to be put on the market would be to host an estate sale. This is a little bit different from a yard sale.

Put Price Tags On Everything

You will want to go through every room in the house with a roll of stickers. This is what you can use to put prices on everything. Just know that anyone who shows up to an estate sale is probably going to haggle for a price. That’s why it’s your responsibility to have the “starting price.” It’s a smart move not to put down a number that you want but one that is a little bit inflated so that you can haggle down to your ideal price. You definitely want to do all this pricing work at least the night before the estate sale.

Get Cash

You should have a lockbox for your cash. If you want to carry it in a Fanny pack that might be even better. It’s important that you have change for at least $100 at the start of the sale. You should only accept cash. That means giving out change until you start generating sales.

Expect a Crowd

Savvy yard sale shoppers know that an estate sale will have more things to buy that are of value. That means they are going to show up as soon as you are open for business. It could be an overwhelming crowded first but it will help to have some friends on your “staff.” You should have people that are stationed in every room making sure any customers’ questions are answered.

At the end of the sale, you’re still going to be left with a few items that need to be tossed out. If you can fit it onto trashcan, then go for it. However if you dealing with furniture, appliances and other bulky items then you definitely want to bring in Junk King Sacramento. They’ll send over a pair of movers and a big truck to make quick work out of clearing out those leftover items. An estate cleanout is easy when you put Junk King Sacramento on the job.

autumn-212733_1280

Inspect Your Roof

With the fall comes more rain. You might have dodged a leaky roof so far but there’s no telling what has happened over the summer. It’s a good idea to inspect your roof not just by what you can see from down below but also up above. If this were a task that you are a little bit leery about, then it would be worthwhile bringing in a professional.

Clean the Rain Gutters

Raking leaves in the yard is a fall ritual that is also tied to cleaning out the rain gutters. It’s important that you keep those gutters clear of debris so that the water flows freely down the spout. Otherwise, it could back up and caused damage to your roof but also to the inside of your home. You also want to make sure that the water flows at least 3 feet away from the house to prevent possible water damage to your foundation.

Get Your Furnace Inspected

In the coming weeks, you might be turning on your heat for the first time since last winter. It’s always a good idea to get your furnace inspected at least once a year. This way you can isolate any problem and get it fixed before a total breakdown. Along with inspecting the furnace, you should also replace the filters in any of your air vents. In fact, it’s a good idea to get into the habit of replacing those vents once a month.

Toss Out Rubbish

Getting rid of rubbish isn’t necessarily a mandatory fall prep task but it is something that will greatly improve your living environment. You can make a lot more room in your garage and closets by sorting through all of the stored stuff and setting aside the things you know you’re never going to use again. Once you got that pile of unwanted clutter, give Junk King Sacramento call. They’ll dispatch a two-man moving crew and a truck for fast removal.
