Start A New Hobby This Weekend

Have your weekends become a bit boring? Yes, it is nice to occasionally do nothing for an entire weekend but that usually results in your feeling as if nothing was accomplished. A hobby could change that. Hobbies are all about creating something and that can be very rewarding. Not sure what hobby you could start this weekend? Here are some fun ideas:

Refurbish Furniture

Do you have a favorite chair, dresser or table that needs a little TLC? Maybe you found a unique piece at yard sale. You can refurbish that furniture. Upholstering might be too much to take on but you can certainly strip the paint/stain off an old piece and repaint it to make it look like new again. This is a great hobby to do in the garage with the door open for ventilation.

Take Up Canning

There is no shortage of famer’s markets around Seattle. That means you have access to a wide assortment of fresh vegetables. What can you do with all that produce? Can it. Canning has a long history. If you like working in the kitchen, then this is a skill to add to your culinary resume. Canning also could mean pickling. You’ll find all the recipes you need online.

Jigsaw Puzzle

A jigsaw puzzle is a great way to spend a lazy weekend afternoon. With some nice music in the background and a cool beverage by your side, you can dive into a puzzle. The more challenging, the more fun when you complete them. Once the puzzle is done, you could brush clear glue or lacquer over it and turn it into a piece of art to hang on your wall.

Sewing

Sewing is a skill that comes in handy when you want to make alterations to an outfit. It is also something you can literally start from scratch. There are many places around town that offer sewing classes. Get stitching.

Before you dive into any one of these hobbies, you’re going to need some space to work in. That will require clearing of clutter. Cue Junk King Seattle. These are the experienced junk haulers who can swiftly go through your garage or spare room to haul out all the things you want to get rid of. Once clear, you’ll have the space to set up your hobby corner. Get your new hobby started with a junk removal session with Junk King Seattle.

Fresh Decorating Ideas For Your Home

When was the last time you freshened up your home? Bringing flowers and lighting scented candles are nice touches but for real freshening you should be thinking about adding new decorating touches. Here are some fresh decorating ideas you can put into action today:

staging-2816464_1280

Mismatched Elements

There are some folks who’s taste gravitates towards uniformity. Nothing wrong with that but if you are more at home with eclectic mismatches, then there is no reason why that cant’ be reflected in your decorating. You can probably find a wide assortment of vintage items at thrift shops, yard sales and flea markets. Whether you’re looking for furniture or items for a shelf, be sure to bring cash to those places and don’t hesitate to haggle.

Wall Collage

Every wall in your home is like a blank canvas. How you fill up that “canvas” will reflect on your decorating style. You can create a wall collage of family photos. Mix and match sizes and frame styles. You might find a bunch of unique art pieces in your thrift store hunting that could become part of your wall collage. Create a theme for the wall and build on that.

Put Art in the Kitchen

When looking for art, don’t neglect the kitchen. There are a lot of fun vintage signs and other kitschy items you can find to decorate your kitchen. While you’re at it, you might consider repainting your kitchen with a bold color.

Spruce Up a Hallway

Hallways are often neglected. They’re just the way to get from one end of the house to the other. But they’re also an area that can benefit from art on the wall, narrow benches or plants.

Decorating is also about keeping your home clean and clear of clutter. Even if you put a lot of items on display, you don’t want to necessarily make it seem haphazard or a mess. That’s why it might be helpful to start this process with junk removal session from Junk King Seattle. The crew who will be assigned to your session will be able to life and load anything you want to get rid of. It doesn’t matter if it is as heavy as a piano or light as box of scarves. Their only focus is making all that clutter disappear. Let Junk King Seattle help you with your next home decorating project. Start with a junk free home.

Quality Junk Removal Every Time

The success of a business can be measured by how consistent they are with their services. You go to a restaurant that consistently provides good tasting food. If you start to get bad meals, then you’ll find a new place. That principle applies to dry cleaners, plumbers and any other type of service professional. What about junk removal? You want a service that you can depend on for efficiency and affordability. You’ll find both of those factors in full force with Junk King Seattle.

Junk King’s efficiency starts with when you set up your appointment. You’ll always get a fast response to a phone call query. The majority of junk removal sessions are handled by the next day. Call at the right time and you might be able to benefit from a same-day pickup.

As for affordability, Junk King’s pricing policy is based on how the truck will be packed with all your stuff. One sofa won’t take up a lot of room, so that is on the low end of the price scale. An entire garage full of clutter might take up half the truck and so on. The crews have a lot of experience with this type of work. They’ll be able to size up any pile of rubbish and know exactly how to fit in onto the truck. You’ll know your price before the work begins and it is a price that isn’t going to change.

Included in that fee is all the labor costs. That might only be genuine factor if the team from Junk King has to take extra time dismantling something in order for it to fit on the truck. Typically, they can load up everything in no time at all. Either way, you won’t be charged by the hour.

Finally, you have to take a moment to think about what happens to your junk after it is picked up by Junk King. It won’t automatically be dropped off at landfill. Instead, the crews will sort through the collection to pull out anything that can be dropped off at a charity or recycling center. For quality junk removal, call on Junk King Seattle today.

Organize Your Shed Without Any Clutter

The key to a successful organization plan is to find a “home” for everything. Whether it is your car keys or shoes, they should have a proper place to be put when you come in the door. Some things that need a place are items that aren’t used every day. That doesn’t mean they can’t be organized. Consider your backyard shed. You might be keeping a lot of things in storage out there that you only use for gardening or other yard activities. Are those items organized or just tossed inside the shed? The only way to really get organized is to get rid of the clutter and that begins with a call to Junk King Seattle.

tools-690038_960_720

You can take two approaches to scheduling your shed clearing with Junk King. You can call to lock down an appointment ASAP or you can sort through all the things you want to get rid of and then call Junk King. You don’t actually have to lock down your final list of junk items until the Junk King crew arrives for the appointment. That could give you more sorting time. It will help if they know they’re moving a few things or cleaning out a hoarder type situation. They just want to make sure you have the right amount of work force and the truck space.

For the big jobs, Junk King is happy to send more help but typically, they are taken care of with the standard two-man moving team. This is the crew who is going to do all the work for them and they mean that quite literally. Clearing out the shed could get a bit  dirty but your hands will remain clean with Junk King on the job.

Along with all the junk from your shed, you can also have the crew load up any item from the inside of your home. Remember, you have a moving team at your disposal. Think of how much more room you can create when you’ve gotten rid of all that old furniture and stuff from the closet. Clearing out your shed and home of clutter is simple: Just call Junk King Seattle. Done.

bedroom-1078890_960_720

Spend the Night

It might seem odd that you should spend the night in your own guestroom but it is really the best way to tell if the bed, sheets, blankets and pillows are comfortable. If you can have a good night’s rest, then your guests will be fine, too.

Add Details

Little details in the guestroom can put a smile on your holiday visitors. Think about touches like fresh flowers, a fruit basket and some bottle water… just like a four-star hotel! You should also print out your home’s Wi-Fi password so it is handy. For the bathroom, you can offer up slippers, a bathrobe (nobody packs those!) and fluffy towels. A small basket with shampoo, soap and lotion is travel size bottles is also a nice touch.

Plan Activities

You are going to be playing tour guide for your guests. If you can’t spare the time off from work, consider hiring a car with a driver for the day to show them around town. That way you won’t have to worry about them getting lost or dinging up your car. It might help to also provide your guests with a spare key so they can be free to come and go.

Clear Out Rubbish

You certainly don’t want your holiday guests to be surrounded by junk in that guestroom. Take this opportunity to finally get rid of all the old furniture, clothes and other items you’ve stashed in there. One call to Junk King Seattle can take care of that. They’ll send over a team of workers who will do all kinds of lifting and loading. Your only job will be to point to what you want taken away.

Important Recycling Facts You Should Know

How much do you know about recycling? You don’t need to become an expert on environmental policy to know that recycling is a benefit for everyone. Not only is it helpful to the environment but it also saves companies money on their bottom line. We all recycle the easy stuff like soda cans, water bottles and newspapers. But there’s a lot more that we could be recycling. Here are some things you should think about when it comes to expanding your own recycling opportunities:

green-recycle-bin-1594-m

Cardboard is a big recycling item. When cardboard gets recycled it only takes up 75% of the energy needed to make new cardboard. One ton of recycled cardboard can save up to 46 gallons of oil. Over 90% of every product shipped in the US comes in it cardboard box. That adds up to 400,000,000,000 square feet of cardboard.

What about food waste? All your organic food scraps can be used for compost and maybe even sold back to farmers as a food source for their animals. Almost half the food in the US goes to waste. That breaks down to around 3,000 pounds per second. All total, food scraps make up around 12% of municipal solid waste generated across the country.

What about e-waste? Recent studies have found that 1.8 million tons of e-waste ended up in landfills. That translates into a just around 2% of the total way stream in the US. Many states have created mandatory collection and recycling programs for electronics. A lot of folks recognize that e-waste should be tossed out into the trash but it’s not convenient to find a drop-off site. What happens then is that those old computers, televisions and other devices end up getting shoved into a closet or out into the garage. A better approach would be to turn it over to Junk King Seattle. This is a company that has been recycling what they collect for over 12 years. All the crews working for Junk King have been trained to identify those items that can be donated or recycled. Those drop-offs become part of their weekly routine. You won’t find a better junk recycling partner then Junk King Seattle.
