When is the Best Time to Rent a Dumpster for your Project in Alameda

 

 

Rental Dumpster in Alameda

 

Obviously, having a huge dumpster looming on your front lawn, your driveway, or in the main parking lot of your business isn’t exactly the most appealing image in the world. Your homeowner´s association might take issue with a permanent dumpster placed on the curb of your driveway. For businesses, a dumpster near the main entrance may very well contribute to lost customers. However, there are times when renting a dumpster for a short period of time can be the most hygienic, sanitary, and safe way to get rid of the excess junk that you have building up in your home or business. When you rent a dumpster from Junk King of Alameda, we can help you get rid of the bulky junk items you have around your property in the most efficient way possible. Our helpful customer service representatives will also help you determine the best location to place your dumpster so that it causes minimum visual impact to your home or business. 

Below, we briefly outline a few different instances when renting a dumpster is probably going to be the most common sense option for homeowners, business owners, and other residents of the Alameda region. 

 

 

Dumpster Rentals for Moving Time 

 

Changing residence is certainly a stressful time for many people. Besides all the paperwork with the real estate company, the banks, and the movers, many people are also going through an enormous amount of “things” that they have accumulated over the years. As you go through the process of boxing up old children´s toys, clothes that haven’t been worn in a decade, and furniture that has been hidden in the attic or basement, it might be a good time to go through a major de-cluttering process before moving into your new home. 

Unfortunately, most moving companies operate on strict timelines. Once you have hired them to come and in move your stuff, they probably will not want you hanging around and deciding what goes or what stays.

By renting a dumpster from Junk King of Alameda, you can have a convenient space to store the junk that you don’t want to take with you to your new home. When you choose Junk King of Alameda for your dumpster rental needs, we can help you determine what size dumpster is best for your needs. We are also flexible on the amount of time you need to clean out your junk. Once you have finished the de-cluttering of your items, simply give us a call and we´ll come and haul away your junk. 

 

 

Dumpster Rentals for Home Renovations

Outdoor upgrades, on the other hand, increased from 51 percent to 57 percent. No matter what type of renovation work you are doing on your home or your yard, renting a dumpster from Junk King offers an accessible and convenient way to manage the construction and demolition debris that is produced by those renovations. Instead of having old windows, broken bricks, and scrap plywood building up in your driveway, a dumpster rental will make it easy to keep your property clean as you go through the renovation process.

What to do with your Old Bed Frame in Alameda

 

 

Old Bed Frame in Alameda

 

Did you know that mattress and bedding sales in the United States totaled $14.2 billion in 2018 alone? Every year, consumers in the United States purchase approximately 35.9 million mattresses. Though this may certainly be good news for companies that operate in the bedding industry, it also poses a serious challenge to waste management companies around the country.  What exactly are we supposed to do with the millions of beds that are eventually thrown away to make room for our new bedroom purchases? 

Junk King of Alameda is the top-rated junk removal company in the region. We offer professional junk removal services to both commercial and residential customers, including mattress and bed frame removal. Unlike other junk removal companies, we don’t simply take your old bed frame to the local dump. Rather, we go the extra mile to ensure that your old bed gets every opportunity to either be resold, donated, repurposed, or recycled. Below, we briefly outline how Junk King of Alameda can help you get rid of your old and used bed frame in the most ecological, affordable and efficient way possible.

Donating or Re-Selling your Used Bed Frame

 

The first thing we do when we pick up a used bed frame is to do a thorough visual inspection of the item. If the bedframe is still in solid and usable condition, then we will generally take that item to one of the several charities, donation centers, and thrift stores with whom we work. Even if the mattress is old, lumpy, soiled, or beyond repair, bed frames are generally much more durable. Donation centers, thrift stores, and charities often times receive dozens of mattress donations, but not enough bed frames. 

By donating your used bed frame to these organizations, we are helping create affordable access to important household items for underprivileged families and individuals in our community. Furthermore, by donating your used bed frame, we help to extend the useful lifespan of the item, thus keeping it out of the dump.

Often times, the bed frames we pick up are either completely broken or beyond repair. In these cases, we make every possible effort to find a recycling organization that can take the bed frame and recycle it into new purposes. Metal bed frames can easily be taken to scrap metal recyclers as there is generally a high demand for these materials. For upholstered bedframes, however, there are only a handful of recycling organizations that can break down the foam, textiles, and other raw materials for effective recycling. 

After several years of operating as the nation´s top-rated junk removal company, we have fortunately been able to identify and develop relationships with these recycling companies. No matter what material your bed frame is made from, when you hire Junk King of Alameda, we should be able to ensure that is either donated or recycled.

The Challenge of Mattress Disposal in Oakland 

 

In Oakland, bulky item pickup is only available by a pre-scheduled appointment. If you simply take your old mattress out to the curb hoping for regular trash pickup, not only will it be left curbside, but you may also be subject to a hefty city fine. According to the City of Oakland, residents and businesses must place their bulky junk items (such as mattresses) at the curb by 6 a.m. on the day of your appointment to ensure collection.  Set-outs over the allowed amounts are also subject to an additional fee. 

Though bulky junk collection is free, you can only get rid of 4 cubic yards of waste at once. For people who live in apartments or multi-family residences, you are restricted to only two mattresses or box springs per bulky junk recollection appointment. 

With the average mattress weighting between 50 and 150 pounds, moving your mattress out to the curb in front of your home, apartment, or business is no small feat. Furthermore, having to wait several weeks for an available bulky junk collection date may not feasible for many people. When you hire Junk King of Alameda for your mattress removal need, we make it extremely easy and straightforward to get rid of your used mattresses, bedsprings, and other types of furniture.

The Benefits that come with Recycling your Used Mattress

 

Benefits of Recycling Mattress

  • Every mattress that is dumped into a landfill takes up 23 cubic feet of space.
  • An estimated 20 million mattresses were dumped into landfills across the United States, and that number is expected to grow in the coming years.
