If you’re a resident of Minneapolis and need to get rid of a large appliance you can turn to the Minneapolis Department of Public Works. Here’s the instructions that you’ll find:

As part of your garbage service, you may place up to a maximum of TWO large items at your collection point for pickup, at no additional charge.

• Burnable items are collected on your garbage day.
• Non-burnable items (major appliances, items more than 50% metal, and hide-a-beds) are collected on the next business day after recycling pickup.
• Place items next to your garbage cart by 6:00 AM
• Attach a note to each item that says “For Solid Waste”.
• Large item collection is a special service included in your monthly fee.

Please be considerate to your neighbors. Place large items out for collection no more than one day in advance. A note must be attached to each item that says “For Solid Waste”. Large item collection is a special service to our paying customers only. Dumping or using another resident’s collection point is illegal. When residents abuse this program by placing items from friends, family or from other locations or businesses, this service can be cancelled. Crews watch for this abuse and report it when found. Once removed from this program, any large item found for pickup at your collection point will result in a charge to your Utility Billing account as a “fee for service.”

That’s a lot to process. Forget all the note writing and making sure you have the right day, what about the simple fact of getting that appliance out to the curb to begin with? Sure, you might be able to lug an old microwave out there but what about a stove or refrigerator? That’s just impractical. When you’ve got a big junk item like that to get rid of then you’re only real option is to call Junk King Minneapolis. They’ll be able to dispatch a professional crew of junk haulers to your location at the scheduled time. For that appointment the Junk King crew will happily move that old stove or fridge down a flight of stairs and into their waiting truck. It really makes no difference to them where your junk is being kept. All they care about is getting it out of your home.

If you schedule Junk King Minneapolis for a removal project then you should take advantage of that crew by earmarking everything in your home that can be tossed out. Remember you don’t have to move it! Just point it all out to the Junk King crew and they’ll do the rest. It really is the best way to de-clutter your home. Before you know it the holidays will be here and you’ll want that junk gone before company starts coming over. Take care of it today by calling Junk King.
