San Antonio Junk Removal Prices

Every city has a place that visitors flock to but residents rarely see. In New York it’s the Statue of Liberty. In Los Angeles is the Hollywood Walk of Fame. And in San Antonio it’s the Alamo. Although the nearby River Walk certainly attracts it’s fair share of visitors and provides a much needed boost for the local economy, the Alamo is often relegated to an a “passing thought” by many of the locals. That might soon change. A group calling themselves Team Better Block recently held a festival at the Alamo showing how things might be if the city can approve spending a million dollars on improvements. The primary focus of this possible expansion would be to close the west end of Alamo Street and allow it to be an open market area for arts, crafts and food. For this “try-out” event, 10,000 folks showed up for the weekend which was a huge boost for the area.

Of course not everyone was in favor of this type of project but with the city looking for help to inject more money into local businesses this could be just the ticket. It might also mean that San Antonio becomes a bigger draw for tourists and visitors. If you’ve got family or friends living out of state you might be more inclined to invite them for a vacation if there is more to do around San Antonio. While there are plenty of hotels and inns for guests to stay at, nothing beats opening up your home provided you have the space. With the summer winding down, the holiday season will be right around the corner. Will you be inviting folks to spend some time with your family in the coming months? If so then you might want to make room by clearing out some junk taking up much needed space in your home.

It’s amazing how quickly we can fill up a spare room with useless stuff. What was once a perfectly decent guest room becomes a family’s dumping ground. That shouldn’t be the case. After all, you bought that house fully intending to use that spare room, right? Isn’t it time to reclaim that space? You can when you hire Junk King San Antonio.

Junk King San Antonio is a local business that can help you clean out the clutter from your home, garage or attic. Not only will you be supporting a local business but you’ll be getting a great deal. Junk King San Antonio doesn’t charge by the hour. They charge by the volume. In other words, the amount of space your junk takes up in their truck is what you’ll be charged. That’s a single price including all travel time, dumping fees and labor costs. This is a terrific bargain that should motivate you to get your home ready for visitors or just get rid of that junk once and for all. And because Junk King will do all the work, that means you’ll have more time to enjoy all that San Antonio has to offer. So remember the Alamo and remember Junk King San Antonio when you need to get the clutter out of your life.

Junk Removal for San Antonio Realtors

The headline from a recent San Antonio Business Journal article was a welcome relief to many. It read: “San Antonio Housing Market Moving in the Right Direction.” As with everywhere else in the country, the San Antonio housing market took a huge hit when the recession creeped in. But now the average price of a home is at the highest level since 2008. That is according to the San Antonio Board of Realtors. Bottom line: savvy realtors are making the move to expand their business and Junk King can be a huge help.

With prices going up, more folks are going to be looking for a bargain. It stands to reason that the more choices you can offer them the better off you’ll be at closing contracts. This might mean going outside of your comfort zone of neighborhoods and exploring areas where foreclosures dominated. The trick with scooping up a foreclosed property and getting it ready for sale is where Junk King San Antonio comes into play.

Junk King is based right here in San Antonio. The good folks working for the company might just be your neighbors. What they specialize in is all kinds of junk removal.

If it is a good price in a good location grab the listing then call Junk King.

Cleaning up a foreclosed property is probably among the easiest jobs that Junk King handles. That’s because they’re not really working with a fuss owner who might be picking through things on the way out to the truck. All you need to do is throw open the doors and tell the crew to haul it all away. In a matter of hours, that home which was once piled high with trash will be wiped clean to the bare walls. You then have the option of bringing in paint crews to spruce it up a bit more. Even still, with empty rooms and the removal of ratty carpet you’re sure to impress prospective buyers.

If you’re in need of a home office then Junk King can get you started by moving out the clutter from your garage or spare room opening up the space to move in a desk and file cabinet. You might not need much but at least with the clutter gone you’ll have a decent work zone set up for you to get busy in. Whether it’s for your listings or your home, Junk King should be on your speed dial.

Cool Off By Clearing Clutter in Your San Antonio Home

When it comes to the ultimate way of staying cool in San Antonio this summer there are two words that spring to mind: water park. Most of the locals have already discovered the benefits of spending the day at such a nearby world-class attractions such as Six Flags. Just on the northwest outskirts of town at Six Flags there is a Texas sized and shaped wave pool and plenty of winding waterslides.

Heading west from the city you’ll find the Seaworld Aquatica water park they opened for business just this year. This is a state-of-the-art water park that features multiple waterslides and underwater rides all in a lush tropical setting. Visitors can even cool off among herds of brown stingrays but don’t worry these are the nonlethal kind!

Towards the east is Splashtown which also has multiple water rides, wave pools and some really fast slides. While these water parks are great diversions it’s not like you can move in and take up residence. Most of the time you’ll be stuck your own home or apartment looking for less intense ways to stay cool.

It’s important to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids whether you’re indoors or outdoors. It’s recommended that when the thermometer goes up you should stay indoors with the air conditioning auditioning flowing. If you don’t have AC, then being close to a circulating fan can do the trick. What might be standing in your way of having a complete cool down experience is whether or not that cool air can be properly circulated in your own home. In other words, if you’ve got a lot of clutter you’re not going to catch a breeze! To maximize the airflow you need to minimize your junk.

It might seem counter-intuitive to take on a labor-intensive project like cleaning the junk out of your home when it is sweltering outside. Actually, it’s the perfect time for that kind of assignment especially if you hire Junk King San Antonio. Junk King is the San Antonio base business’s mission is to clear out any home, apartment or business. What’s great about working with Junk King is that they’ll do all the heavy lifting. You could literally stay in a chair in front of your AC while directing the Junk King crew to remove whatever you want taken away. In other words, let them break a sweat!

A Junk King crew will make all the necessary trips up and down stairs, in and out of garage and to and fro your backyard in order to accomplish the task of getting rid of your junk. You won’t have to worry about paying by the hour for this type of service. Instead you’ll pay a terrific rate based on the amount of space you take up in the truck. Once your junk has been removed you’ll be amazed at how much better the cool air can move around your home. Of course, you can still go to the water park just know that you’ll be coming home to a clutter free zone!

San Antonio 4th of July Junk Removal

Sadly, last year there were no fireworks in San Antonio, at least not the big shows sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce. That’s because the surrounding land was just too dry to risk a spark flying off from the rockets. But this year, the fireworks are roaring back… provided it doesn’t get too much hotter! The plan is for a huge celebration to take place at the Woodlawn Lake where the San Antonio Parks Foundation will present their water reflected fireworks display. This is a truly unique experience that promises to be fun for the whole family.

According to the San Antonio Fire Department, the recent rainfall makes conditions a bit more agreeable for fireworks but that doesn’t mean we’re completely out of the woods. A sharp increase in the temperature could result in drying up the area and forcing another cancellation. Could you still celebrate the 4^th of July without fireworks? Absolutely. But for that to happen you need to refocus your efforts on your own backyard. That’s where you can gather your friends and family for a good old fashion summer cookout.

One of the fun things about a cookout is that you probably won’t have any trouble getting the men to do most of the cooking. Naturally that “cooking” really means grilling. At any backyard barbeque you won’t have to look far for the husbands and dads. They’ll all be gathered around the grill discussing the merits of what makes the best BBQ. As for the kids, all they need for backyard fun is a sprinkler and a waterslide and they’re good to go. In fact, with the hot July temperatures it might be hard keeping some of those grown-ups off that water slide.

To get your backyard ready for this kind of fun celebration you’ll going to have to do a bit of safety proofing. Essentially this will mean inspecting every corner of your yard for any hazardous junk. Don’t forget if you have kids playing here than anything that isn’t nailed down can become a trap! Piles of lumber, chunks of concrete, busted planters or rusted kitchen appliances will all become fair game as those young ones explore and imagine. You can clear all that junk out in one afternoon by hiring a team of professional junk haulers like Junk King San Antonio.

The professional junk hauling team from Junk King will arrive at your home for a scheduled appointment. They’ll be working on your schedule not the other way around. If you need to be there to supervise they can show up after work hours or on the weekend. You could even pile up what you want taken away in your driveway. Attach a note saying, “All this junk goes!” and the pros will do the rest! Make sure your 4^th of July and rest of the summer will be a safe one with a clean backyard.

San Antonio Grill Disposal and Recycling

Given the choice, most folks would prefer their dinners grilled. Whether its steak, fish, chicken or ribs, cooking them on an outdoor BBQ is the best way to enjoy a wide range of flavors. You don’t have to travel far around San Antonio before you find a grill being fired up somewhere. Even if you’ve been grilling all your life, there are still probably some tips you might not even be aware of. Taking on any one of these helpful hints can completely change your grilling game.

Top of the list would be the advice not to grill cold meat. Yes, we’re being constantly warned not to leave meat out on a countertop because that’s where bacteria grows. That certainly holds true when it comes to thawing meat but not necessarily with meat that you’re bringing to room temperature. The challenge is heating a piece of meat from the center out. How many times have you cut into a steak to find it too undercooked in the center? Warming up that meat before it goes on the grill increases your opportunity for a more thorough cooking. Preheating is also essential to a good BBQ. You have to preheat your oven so why not preheat your grill? Always start grilling with at your perfect temperature for the meat you’re cooking.

There are many grillers who like to poke, prod and flip their food. This is only going to get in the way of locking in those amazing flavors. Sear first. This means setting your meat on the heat and letting it “flash brown.” Do this on both sides and around the edges (counts for chicken too!). Once your meat is sear, place it on your grate and let the heat work. In other words leave it alone for several minutes then flip. It doesn’t have to be that complicated.

You also want to avoid fueling your fire with fat. Sure it’s fun to see the flames flare up and hear that sizzle as fat or excess marinade drops down from your meat. However, what you’re doing with that flare up is causing char. That’s going to ruin your dinner in a snap. And just like cooking indoors, give your meat a chance to rest between the grill and the plate. Open another bottle of wine while your steak “settles down.”

Before any of this great grilling can begin you have to make sure you’ve got the best working BBQ. Leaving a grill outdoors year round means it’s going to take a beating. At some point, you have to surrender and buy a new grill. That’s a good thing! What else is a good thing is letting a team of professional junk haulers like Junk King San Antonio handle the task of old grill removal. They can load up your old grill and just about anything else you want to get rid of. Clearing out the clutter from your home and yard is a perfect way to start the summer.

Home Downsizing Tips in San Antonio

What do you really need to get by in life? We’re talking about the physical things like furniture that make for a comfortable living environment. Beyond the kitchen (because we all need one of those!) the basics are a bathroom, a bedroom and a living room. That would be just for you. Now multiple that by the members of your house and you’ve got the need for more bedrooms and more bathrooms. Perfect. But what happens when those “extra” family members go off to start their own lives? Suddenly having all those extra rooms doesn’t seem very practical. You’ve still got to keep them clean. When you heat the home it all gets heated. And then there is all the annoying yard work. This is why you might want to seize upon the idea of downsizing by moving out of that big empty house and into a smaller place. If you make this choice, you’ll be joining thousands of other San Antonio residents who have already embraced the idea of downsizing as a better way to live.

If you do make the move, you need to have a strong sense of your new living environment. This will help you decide which pieces of furniture you want to hang onto and which pieces should be given away or tossed away. One of the first things to go is often that big dining room table and chairs. Do you really eat in the dining room or in your kitchen? Sure, for holidays you would bust out the good china and serve in the dining room but is it really worth having a big house with a room you only use two times a year?

Also, it’s time to be realistic about your work-out equipment. If you have a huge treadmill that gets more of a workout as a clothes hanger than an exercise machine do you really need to space to keep it in?

Downsizing doesn’t necessarily mean you have to throw all of this stuff out. You could offer it for sale on Craigslist or have a yard sale or even pass it off to another family member. The key point is that if you’re not going to need something then get rid of it. As for all that stuff that is left over which nobody can use and no charity would want, you can turn that junk over to a crew of professional junk haulers like Junk King San Antonio

These hard working crews are every bit as able as a solid team of professional movers. The difference is that they’ll be taking your stuff to its final resting place as opposed to your new home! Getting rid of the clutter in your life can be a truly liberating experience even if you’re not moving. In other words, downsizing applies even if it simply means to downsize all the junk you’re hanging onto.

Why Junk Removal is Getting Big in San Antonio

“Everything’s bigger in Texas.” That’s a very popular slogan that many locals are happy to share with out-of-towners. Usually, this will happen when someone is delivered a fresh piece of grilled steak that is as big as their head!

That slogan can always apply to your home that is overflowing with junk. If everything is bigger in Texas then maybe you’ve got more junk than you can handle. What’s that doing for your home value? What about the value of your neighbor’s home? We’ve all seen “those houses.” You know the ones with the car up on blocks in the driveway. Or an above ground pool that hasn’t been used in years. Or old furniture sitting out on the porch. Does that describe your home? It doesn’t have to be that way; especially when there is experience help in the form of the pros at Junk King San Antonio standing by to help you get rid of all that junk once and for all.

There are some folks who travel all around the country and the world and bring back all kinds of trinkets and treasures they are proud to put on display. But you don’t even have to leave San Antonio to get all kinds of junk piled up in your home. Sometimes that junk begins as leftovers from a home improvement project. Instead of hauling the construction waste off to a dump yard it gets piled up alongside the garage. There could be left over Cinco de Mayo party decorations that can never be used. Maybe it’s an old fridge that is totally busted but what can you do? You know you’re not supposed to put these things out on the curb. You might even feel guilty about tossing them out because you paid good money for them at one point. That’s true but ask yourself, “Are you ever going to use this junk again?” If the answer is a quick “no” then you know what has to be done. Get it gone!

When you make the smart move to hire the professional junk haulers at Junk King, you’ll be getting some expert help. You might not think you need to be an expert to haul out a heavy piece of furniture but if you’ve ever thrown out your back then you know how important it is to “lift things right.” That’s what these experienced junk haulers will be able to do: move the right way. They’ll also have a big enough truck to hold whatever you’re tossing out. Even though the pick-up is the most popular truck in San Antonio, there is just so much that a pick-up bed can hold. Remember “everything is bigger in Texas.” So how big will your junk pile be? No matter how big, it’s going to be a distant memory once the pros get a hold of it!

Recycling News in San Antonio

There’s a big change coming to San Antonio SeaWorld Park. We’re not talking about the arrival of a baby whale or some new dolphin tricks but instead the banning of plastic bags. By this time next year visitors at the San Antonio SeaWorld Park souvenir shops will be offered a choice of either a 100% recycled paper bag or purchasing a reusable cloth bag to hold all their trinkets and souvenirs.

According to Angie Llanas, an animal ambassador at SeaWorld San Antonio, this is a major problem “At this park alone, we go through 800,000 plastic bags a year,” she said. “Taking that out of the mix can really have an effect on the environment.” Not only is this an issue for San Antonio residents but also for all the denizens living under the sea. Recent estimates put the amount of plastic bags that end up in the ocean at around 1.4 billion pounds. That is billion with a B!

It’s not just the ocean that has to deal with all of this garbage but also many of the waterways like the ones that are home to animals like Spike, the alligator snapping turtle found in Texas and the southeastern U.S. What happens when a plastic bag makes its way into the water is that a creature like a sea turtle thinks it’s a jellyfish and gobbles it up. That can cause major problems for that beastie.

“We don’t want that, so anything we can do to help, that’s great,” Mark Miller, a park visitor from the Woodlands near Houston, told the local news. A program like this one is a perfect way to inspire the next generation of recyclers; that would be your kids.

The lesson here is that if they’re all are always alternatives when it comes to sending trash to a landfill or throwing it onto the street. You might already have your kids involved in a recycling program around the house. Once you teach them how to sort kitchen garbage it’s easy to fall into the routine of weekly recycling. The one drawback with this type of program is that you are only able to recycle whatever you could fit into your recycling bin. This is going to leave a lot of items earmarked for a landfill unless you team up with Junk King San Antonio.

Junk King is the San Antonio based business that specializes in junk removal of any size. The Junk King crews have been instructed that when they come across an item which can be recycled they need to make sure it ends up at the proper facility. This includes stuff like your unwanted furniture, mattress or scrap metal pieces. With Junk King San Antonio on your team you can rest assured that every effort will be taken to keep your garbage away from a landfill. That’s good for the kids and all creatures great and small!

San Antonio Cardboard Disposal and Recycling

The internet is a wonderful research asset we all have access to. Even somebody without a computer can head over to their local library and log on to get answers to any questions. For instance, supposed you’re sitting in your San Antonio home or apartment surrounded by piles and piles of cardboard and you wanted to get rid of it all? The obvious answer would be to go to the internet and ask the cyber world, “Where can I recycle cardboard in San Antonio?” Here are the actual top two answers to that question:

“The apartments we live in don’t recycle, so we take our items elsewhere that can be recycled. The only thing we can’t locate is a place to take cardboard! The drop off bins @ schools accept all forms of paper EXCEPT cardboard. – All of the recycling agencies on the city site don’t reference cardboard on their sites. ACCO Waste Paper of San Antonio” takes paper, but they don’t say if they charge or if you can drop off. Anyone have experience with this?!”

While that might not be a big help, this message was followed up with the following:

“Try earth911 I found two agencies that have listed themselves on this site as accepting cardboard. Since this information can change, you will want to contact the companies directly first. One of them is Greenstar, an Ireland-based company which actually has a facility in my area (Oklahoma City) and who has done some of the recycling for the Recycling Center that my husband and I run. Fortunately, here in Oklahoma, OEMA (Oklahoma Environmental Management Association) provides cardboard recycling bins. My Recycling Center has four of them. We did have five, but someone burned one of them down on July 4.”

So the answer to where to recycle cardboard in San Antonio is provided by someone living in Oklahoma. Okay, so maybe you have to dig a little deeper to get the right answers you’re looking for. Of course, you could just call up Junk King San Antonio and be done with it!

Junk King is the San Antonio based business which has been removing all kinds of junk from businesses and homes including cardboard boxes. What’s great about Junk King is that they’re not just going to be acting as super charged garbage men. Yes, they’ll come into your homes and pick up any item you want removed but they’re also going to strive to make sure that item is properly disposed of. In the case of cardboard, this means dropping that off at the San Antonio recycling center which handles that type of product.

When you hire Junk King San Antonio you have the option of filling up their truck or just getting rid of a couple of items. The choice is yours but know that whatever choice you make, you’ll be doing right by the environment by hiring Junk King.

San Antonio Spring Junk Removal

A group of Texas A&M student volunteers are spending their spring break far away from the maddening crowds and instead have chosen to cover themselves in muck. They’ve slipped on the waders and are trudging through the marshes at the Trinity River National Wildlife Refuge for a learning retreat that is helping clean up Liberty Pond. Part of this project includes removing the aggressive Water Hyacinths from one the ponds. This could only be accomplished by wading in waist-deep water and kayaking to pick up the plants by hand one at a time. If these particular plants aren’t trimmed back, they can quickly overwhelm this delicate eco-system.

One of the students from the San Antonio area told a local newspaper about why she is doing this while a lot of her classmates are off sunning themselves. “This is what I love. I could do this every day. Even though I am exhausted, it is not like work. It is fun.” That includes the bout of poison ivy she got while on the clean up grew!

This kind of story certainly puts your own spring cleaning project in perspective. You’re only dealing with cleaning up your home or yards; you’re not going into waist deep pond water! You’ll also be working indoors which means access to cool drinks and fun tunes. Plus, you’re entitled to take as many breaks as you want. One advantage that the Liberty Pond cleanup effort has it there is an entire team doing the work. That will certainly make it go faster. Fortunately, you’ve got the exact same opportunity to have your own team. Call it team Junk King San Antonio.

Junk King is the San Antonio based business of professional junk haulers who have multiple crews and trucks standing by to be dispatched for any junk removal chores. How Junk King can work with you is by helping get rid of the clutter from your home before you clean. This is all that junk you’ve been staring at for months and years wondering when it’s going to disappear. Instead of waiting for magic, just call Junk King. They will make it disappear for sure! Another approach would be to call Junk King after your spring cleaning. That’s because you might discover a lot more junk you want to throw out as you clean through closets, under beds and in garages. All you need to do is start a pile for Junk King. Even if that pile grows as big as your own home, Junk King San Antonio won’t freak out. Whatever you throw at the crews, chances are they’ve seen worse! As soon as that clutter is gone from your home, then you’ll be able to do a deep cleaning like never before. It’s a perfect way to kick off the spring!
