Junk Removal Blog

If you’re a real estate professional working in or near downtown San Diego, you might also work with foreclosures or REO transactions. If so, then you’ve probably carried out some foreclosure cleanouts already.

Quite likely, you’ll need to do so again. And you probably don’t want to take care of it yourself!

Foreclosure Cleanouts are not DIY Tasks for Real Estate Professionals

It’s not a matter of whether you’re capable of doing it. But just because you can doesn’t mean that you should.

You are a professional and your time and skills have value, both of which are better spent doing what you do best – selling properties. The harsh reality is that every hour you spend doing things that you could delegate or outsource is an hour that you’re not selling homes.

Even if it’s just clearing out some piles of trash and a few larger items, you might get it out of the house easy enough. But the bigger problem is that you can’t just leave it out on the curb for the residential waste management trucks to pick up. More than likely, they won’t touch it if it’s not all in the bins. And that’s assuming that the property still has garbage pickup service.

Let’s say you do have a truck or large van for hauling trash and debris. But where will you take it from the San Diego Downtown area? If you opt to use the nearest landfill or waste transfer station, you still have to be out there unloading and dumping the trash and junk yourself. 

And even if you still decide to do all the work needed for a foreclosure cleanout, your efforts at cleaning out all the trash, junk, and other debris that is often left behind in a foreclosed home will not be as efficient or as cost-effective as having a professional take care of it.

In fact, as a professional yourself you understand that anything that needs to be done on your property needs to be done by the right kind of professional. 

Which, by the way, is a good reason not to just hire someone with a truck to do it for you. But who do you call?

The bottom line is that, even if you do have some help and a suitable vehicle, doing it yourself really isn’t the best option. The good news is that the foreclosure cleanout professionals at Junk King San Diego Downtown can offer you a great option!

Need Foreclosure Cleanouts? Call Junk King San Diego Downtown!

It wasn’t all that long ago when foreclosures were at historic levels. Thousands of people lost their homes due to the economic downturn and the subsequent housing market upheaval. 

Fortunately for most people, those levels of foreclosure are now a thing of the past, and foreclosure rates are at or even below-normal averages in most regions. But the specter of some type of economic downturn may cause this picture to change. 

With the widespread economic damage that has already been caused from the impact of the coronavirus outbreak, the repeated economic shutdowns, and the fallout from various state and federal actions, many people are being hit hard financially.

And this may be a catalyst for an increase in local foreclosures. 

According to RealtyTrac, the number of foreclosures in San Diego County made a sudden drop from a high at the beginning of 2020 to a low in October. However, the numbers have started to climb since then.

Foreclosures, however, take place for a variety of reasons, not all of which are tied to economic downturns or recessions. Other events such as the loss of a job, a divorce, or even a tragic death in the family, along with several other issues can create situations in which a homeowner is no longer able to keep up with the mortgage.

When situations such as these occur, as they tend to do on a regular basis, real estate professionals working to sell the foreclosed homes have to complete a variety of tasks before that can happen.

And one of those tasks, unfortunately, is often a foreclosure cleanout. 

But the good news is that if you are the one that needs to check that off your list, simply call in the San Diego Downtown area’s expert foreclosure cleanout team to take care of it for you.

Yes, “Green” Foreclosure Cleanouts are a Thing

At Junk King San Diego Downtown we are fully committed to the company’s environmentally friendly mission of ensuring that as much of the junk that we pick up as possible is recycled or donated. In fact, Junk King is unique in that we are the only nationally recognized junk removal company that consistently works to recycle 60 percent or more of everything we haul away.

And we are able to make this happen through our working relationships with donation centers, various not-for-profit organizations, local recyclers.

So, what do all these green efforts have to do with foreclosure cleanouts?

It means that there’s a better destination for all that trash and solid waste sitting in your foreclosed property than in a landfill or trash incineration plant.

And, best of all, you can simply call a professional junk removal firm like Junk King San Diego Downtown and let us take care of it for you.

For example, any old furniture pieces that may still be sitting in the house are not a problem as most furniture can be partly if not completely recycled. Better yet, if it’s still a usable piece of furniture that’s in good shape, it’s highly likely we’ll be able to find a new home for it. 

Removing old appliances such as dishwashers, ovens, and washing machines that have been left in a property can be a huge and labor-intensive task. Large appliances can easily weigh over 300 pounds and are difficult to pick up and remove.

The good news is that Junk King San Diego Downtown can come out to that foreclosed home and haul away any “abandoned” items that have been left behind. And we do it all with our award-winning service.

Few people enjoy taking out the trash and even less people like to haul junk by themselves. So, it isn’t hard to imagine that furniture removal isn’t even on the radar. And for good reason. Old furniture can be heavy, awkward to manage, and difficult to dispose of properly. 

But, when you need furniture removal here in the San Diego Downtown area, what do you do?

It may be that you’ve just upgraded your living room, bedroom, or maybe even the whole house. If so, then congratulations! But what are you going to do with all the old furniture pieces? Or maybe you haven’t gotten new stuff, but you simply need to get rid of some old stuff. 

We understand. Furniture breaks down or gets scuffed up, chewed up, and otherwise made unattractive and unusable. And, if you find yourself with that kind of old furniture, you may be trying to figure out how to get rid of it.

Regardless of why you need to remove old furniture from your home or place of work, doing it yourself is either unappealing, unfeasible, or simply undoable. We all know it’s probably too big to stuff into a trash container and you can’t leave it on the curb. 

Ultimately, it has to be gotten rid of some other way.

Furniture Removal in the San Diego Downtown Area

In the spirit of “full disclosure” we have to say that you do have other options for furniture removal aside from trying to take care of it yourself. Essentially, however, it really comes down to just two options:

• You can, of course, simply hire some guy with a truck to come pick it up and haul it away for you. But you may still need to move your heavy couch, sofa, or recliner out your front door by yourself. And, if it’s just one person picking it up, you may have to help load your own furniture, too.
• Your other option – hiring a professional furniture removal firm like Junk King –  is a far better choice. For one thing, we do all the heavy lifting for you and we load it up and take it all away quickly and efficiently.

And, with Junk King San Diego Downtown, we guarantee that your old furniture items will end up in the right place. That could be a non-profit for the usable pieces of furniture, or a reputable recycling facility so that your old furniture is disposed of properly.

At the risk of repeating ourselves, here’s why Junk King San Diego Downtown is your best option for furniture removal:

• We do all the heavy lifting and hauling.
• No risk of damage to your own vehicle.
• We repurpose or recycle your old pieces.
• Our prices are fair and transparent.
• Making an appointment is easy.

No matter where you live in or around downtown San Diego, you’re likely going to have some old furniture that will need to be removed at some point.

And it may not be residential furniture. 

Business furniture needs to be removed, too. While larger companies with thousands of employees and huge campuses may have the resources for this, smaller businesses usually lack the time and equipment to haul old office furniture.

This is why they need a smart option.

Junk King San Diego Downtown: The Smart Option for Furniture Removal

You may need some help getting rid of old furniture.

Of course, you might know someone with a truck willing to help. But they’re not likely to be insured or bonded, nor would they offer professional, touchless furniture removal service like Junk King San Diego Downtown.

That’s because we are your smart option for old furniture removal and disposal

Junk King San Diego Downtown is also your best local professional furniture removal choice. We provide superior service, convenience, and value, and we take pride in being the Number One rated junk removal company in the industry.

And we are proud of our mission to be green and eco-friendly, as well.

We achieve that mission every day by recycling, donating, or repurposing everything we possibly can. When it comes to furniture removal, we make sure that all the metal, wood, and other materials from furniture pieces are recycled properly. And, if the item can be reused, we will transfer it to a local donation center where it can find a new home.

We strive to be environmentally friendly in all that we do. In fact, our trained and licensed crews even operate a fleet of bio-diesel trucks for many of our jobs.

Old furniture removal and recycling isn’t easily accomplished. It takes time, help, and a suitable vehicle. Plus, you need to know where to take it or how to get it recycled. But you can simply use a reputable junk removal service instead to streamline the process.

And when you hire Junk King San Diego Downtown, you get professional furniture haulers who know how to remove your old furniture without damaging your floors, door frames, and walls!

When our company was first founded in 2005, we were the only recycling-based furniture removal service in the United States. Today we continue that tradition by recycling, repurposing, and reusing as much as possible of everything that we pick up at every location.

Being green isn’t just something we say at Junk King, it is what we do.
