What is Junk Removal? 

“Junk removal” mainly refers to a specific type of company. These companies typically offer junk hauling, garbage disposal, and waste removal. These companies offer two types of services to their customers: a roll-away dumpster option or a removal crew complete with a truck and equipment.  

Junk removal itself references taking away a person’s stuff based on the idea that they are no longer “interested” in keeping it. Items like pianos can’t fit in college apartments, for example. The college kid might use a junk removal company to take it away. Additionally, suppose the piano was in good condition. In that case, the company could haul it to a donation center—whereas if it were in bad shape, Junk King would break it down for the recycling centers. 

At the same time, junk removal companies sometimes offer garbage disposal. This is important because not all junk companies will accept garbage or trash. Some removal companies will only haul junk and furniture. Along with garbage disposal, companies like Junk King can dispose of almost anything, from refrigerators to hot tubs. 

Waste removal is also a sizable identifying factor as far as junk removal companies are concerned. Only the most well-equipped and experienced removal companies are able to offer waste removal—since it requires additional licenses and procedures. Junk King has the facilities to accept all waste except for hazardous—so they can remove construction debris or landscaping trash quickly and effortlessly. 

How Much Does a Junk Removal Service Cost?

Many elements impact the final cost of a junk removal service. For example, things like customer service and recycling abilities affect junk hauling cost. Other factors like self-service or full-service are also impactful. 

In the case of Junk King, junk removal cost typically costs residential property owners between $60-$800. The large margin is due to the two separate services we provide and the additional quality-of-life amenities provided. Some of these amenities include features like our commitment to eco-friendly junk hauling practices, resulting in 60%+ of everything we haul being recycled, reused, or donated.  

On the lower side of the cost bracket is Junk King’s self-service. It costs between $130-$599, depending on the amount of junk accumulated in the MINI dumpster. The MINI is designed to hold 12-cubic yards of junk and garbage—plus, it’s heavy-duty enough to haul away multiple appliances at once. MINIs are rented for 3 to 7-day intervals and are picked up by our removal crews after the rental period expires. 

On the higher side of the cost bracket is Junk King’s full-service. It costs between $150-800, depending on the difficulty of the work and the volume of our removal truck after we’re done. Part of the cost comes from the additional utility provided by our Big Red Trucks. These bright red trucks are 20% larger than competitors at the same price point. That means you save money, while getting rid of more junk.  

Tips & Tricks on Hiring a Local Junk Removal Company in Norcross 

Hiring a local junk removal company in Norcross can be difficult. No homeowner wants to overpay for services that they don’t benefit from. At the same time, no homeowner wants to be given bad customer service because they want to save some money. Here are some of the best tips to consider as you look for a local Norcross junk hauler: 

• Some companies only have one type of service. This is important to remember as a homeowner with many complex needs. Some junk removal companies are more similar to ‘dumpster rental companies’ or ‘junk moving companies’, but few are both. 

• Larger companies will offer discounts for events or holidays. Take advantage of the season and its holidays by paying attention to any discounts being given out by these businesses. Junk King North Atlanta, for example, offers a Dump the Ex event on Valentine’s Day. 

• Utilize all of the free quotes and estimates that are given to you. Get multiple quotes from different companies and compare them. Before deciding on which one to hire, consider the features that separate the companies from each other. 

• Read through recent reviews on Yelp and Google Reviews. In the service industry, the review is the most important thing. Reading through reviews written by people who have actually used the service is a great way to learn more about the treatment you are most likely to receive. 

• Consider reviewing websites like Angi or Home Advisor to get unbiased information. Reviews are great, but they don’t always tell the whole story. Use websites with comparison articles to get more details of a higher and more specific quality. These pages will help the homeowner compare their options and make an informed choice for their Norcross junk removal. 

Types of Junk Haulers in Norcross 

There are two main types of junk haulers in Norcross: the private companies and the city-funded option. Knowing these will significantly help in thinking about how to hire a Norcross junk remover and the features that are important to you. 

Private companies, like Junk King, are one of the most common choices for residential and commercial junk removal and disposal. As mentioned above, there are two types of services associated with junk hauling companies: self-service and full-service. On the other hand, city-funded options also exist. 

Every Atlanta resident is given a limited number of bulk item pickups that the city will come to collect for free. However, there are many limitations that the homeowner needs to be in accordance with, or else the free removal could end up costing more than the private option from incurring fees and violations. 

Additionally, it is worth noting that Atlanta residents are entitled to a limited amount of landfill drop-offs each year as part of their garbage services. However, many choose not to use these drop-offs because landfills damage the environment directly. Further, the weight limit of junk becomes expensive when surpassing the drop-off guidelines. 

The Benefits of Having Your Own Junk Removal Service 

There are many benefits of having your own garbage disposal service. Consider the following unexpected benefits from working with Junk King:

• The Junk King MINI dumpster offers more time to make difficult choices. 
• Our Big Red Trucks can hold more than six regular-sized pickup truck beds worth of trash and junk. 
• Our professional removal crews are highly trained in proactive measures, keeping everyone safe and all of your belongings in good condition. 
• Junk King has the ability to take anything—except hazardous material. That means the hot tub, the shed, and the storage boxes are all goners. 
• Junk King services are able to take care of the entire removal by themselves—that’s part of what makes Junk King’s full-service option such a hit for folks in Metro Atlanta and Norcross. 

What’s the Best Way to Clean Up Your Home with a Junk Removal Service

The best way for anyone to clean up their home is by using the most beneficial services available to them. The most beneficial services might be the cheapest (the city), or they can be the ones that provide the most assistance (Junk King). That said, the best way to clean a home is by effectively noticing behavior patterns and implementing organization to encourage or discourage the behavior. In other words, adults may still need “training” to combat the less desired behavior. 

For example, the student with homework is likely not going to do it if there is nowhere for them to do it (besides the floor). Having a designated space for students to explore their academic prowess is important for comprehension and long-term learning of the material. Said another way, if there are unique places for things to occupy, there is less opportunity for messes and chaos in the home.
