What is Junk Hauling and Why do You Need a Junk King?

Why do I Need a Junk Hauling Service?

 

Removing random items from around the house or office can take a lot of time, and a lot of effort if you aren’t properly prepared for the removal and all of its aspects. This is a well-known problem for many people in the United States; too much time, effort, and money goes into what should be quick, cheap, and effective, junk and trash removals.

Junk removal services provide these benefits and more! Junk hauling companies like Junk King exist to offer a variety of options for every possible removal need; from the business owner looking to remove complex or old equipment, to the residential dumpster rental, or even simply to get rid of junk.  

 

Statistics say that “the average person in the United States generates almost 4.5 pounds of waste every day. About one-third of this waste can be either recycled or composted.” It is a safe bet that with numbers like that, almost everyone in America will need some junk hauling assistance in their lifetime. When you need junk removal services, contact Junk King North Atlanta—when you move with Junk King, removals are as simple as 1, 2, 3, just point, and the junk is gone. 

 

 

What is the Average Cost of Hauling Stuff to the Dump or Recycling Center?

 

Atlanta Recycling

 

The average cost of hauling stuff to the local dump varies, thanks to factors like gas, labor, and whether or not you are a resident of the area. Generally, residents in particular neighborhoods will hold contracts with the trash services that are zoned during the building phase of the neighborhood. This often comes with some ‘free’ dump drop-offs. Conversely, some removal services do not have any ‘free’ benefits—for example, in Atlanta, some residents are charged a small fee for the first few hundred pounds of junk they take to the dump. These small fees compound further the more junk is removed.

 

The cost to remove your stuff from your home then can be a great one. This is especially the case if you have large items, heavy items, or a lot of stuff. The same problems arise with the recycling centers, but at least with the recycling centers, you are protecting the environment.

 

The biggest question then is what you can do with all your stuff—if the dump is too expensive (or exclusive), and the recycling center is too exclusive (or expensive)—call on your local professional junk hauling and removal professionals: Junk King North Atlanta. Contact us today to get a truck tomorrow. 

 

 

How Can I remove Useless Items from My House and Get Rid of Junk?

 

Removing useless items and junk from your house or business has never been easier! Opened in 2005, Junk King has provided Northern America with services that place it at the top of the rankings for removal solutions and customer satisfaction.

 

No matter if you are looking to remove stuff from a house, dispose of garbage, or are looking to get assistance in cleaning up construction or landscaping debris—Junk King has the solution for you. Further, in choosing to move with Junk King, instead of the other guys, you can rest assured that your junk and garbage are being given ‘aftercare’ once our trucks drive away.

This specialized ‘aftercare’ is one of the things that sets Junk King apart from all of the other companies in the industry. Known as North America’s greenest removal company, over 60% of everything we haul is recycled—with a goal of recycling, reusing, repurposing, or donating up to 95-98% of everything we touch. Junk removal has never been easier in Atlanta, and recycling in Atlanta has never been more important. It is estimated that the average American produces a lot of trash in a year, and only a portion of that trash is ever recycled, thanks to unavailability or cost; for example, the average person produces these wastes in a year, per person:

 

  • 34.97 pounds of foldable cartons
  • 35.22 pounds of glass drink bottles
  • 72.99 pounds of durable plastics
  • 17.77 pounds of plastic bottles
  • 91.53 pounds of yard trimmings
  • 220.96 pounds of food waste
  • 854.20 pounds of wood waste

 

 

How do I know if My Trash is too Heavy for Me to Move Alone?

 

One of the most underestimated aspects of junk removal and hauling is the individual’s strength and/or physical abilities. Heavy trash or items need to be approached with training and equipment to ensure that their removal goes without mistake. This means more goes into preparing for heavy removals than just “lift with your legs!” For example, Junk King professionals will sometimes wear back braces that assist in keeping their form correct, thus limiting potential injuries. 

 

Unfortunately, because people overestimate their physical abilities many times, they can often end up hurting themselves (i.e. throwing their backs out, twisting their ankles, or spraining their wrists). The best way to avoid all of this is to limit the possibility of injuries occurring by hiring professionals—but when do you know when to contact the professionals? 

 

The rule of thumb, when it comes to getting professional assistance with removals, is when you’ve met or exceeded the following: 

 

  • There are items that require more than two people to move or uninstall.
  • There are items heavier than 75 pounds that must be removed. 
  • There has been a recent storm or disaster. 
  • There are multiple rooms or an excessive amount of junk that must be removed. 
  • There are items that must be removed within a timeline or budget. 
  • There has been a recent death of a family member or relative. 

 

Follow these rules for when to call on junk removal assistance—or just call us because you’d rather not remove junk yourself. For all of your removal solutions, or for any moving help in Atlanta, call on Junk King.

How to Choose a Junk Removal Service that’s Right for Your Needs

 

Pick the junk removal service that’s right for your needs by considering all of the factors that make up the removal event: would you rather pay your brother-in-law in pizza and beer, and receive a broken TV, r would you rather pay the professionals to get it done the right way? Here are some of the best things to consider when it comes time for your junk and trash to be removed:

 

  • Do you live in an area with limited space? (If yes, pick the MINI!)
  • Do you want to spend the time cleaning, or have someone do it for you? (If the latter, pick the full-service!)
  • Can most of your trash be taken by your weekly trash service? (If yes, consider ordering a bulk item pickup with the City of Atlanta.)
  • Do your trash and junk include complex items that could be recycled if properly broken down? (If yes, then call us for your recycling needs.)
  • Are you looking to have landscaping or construction debris removed? (If yes, then call on Junk King! We accept all trash, junk, and garbage, barring anything hazardous; that means we even accept e-waste!)

 

Case Study: A Department Store Clean Out with Junk King Assistance

 

Junk hauling

 

Department stores are known for being particularly large. This means that when they need to be cleaned out or they need to change floor plans, it’s usually assumed that they ‘have a guy’ for those sorts of things. This, unfortunately, is not the case; store managers are on the hook for finding a solution. To combat this in Atlanta, GA, department store managers have been turning to Junk King North Atlanta.

 

In the junk removal business, there are really two types of services offered by Junk King. The first is residential options; things such as rental roll-away dumpsters or junk hauling services. The second is commercial options; things like optional payment plans, or additional trucks. Many of the options can be shared between both services, but when it comes to department store clean outs, the commercial options become imperative. 

 

Junk King Hauling and Removal Services is known as America’s Greenest Junk Removal Service; in Atlanta, Junk King is also known as being the best option for clean out services, both residential and commercially. Recently, department store managers have been turning to Junk King North Atlanta for assistance, making Junk King Atlanta’s best-kept secret for the commercial industry, department stores included. 

 

Store managers, property landlords, business owners, and the majority of people involved in production, will at some point need auxiliary assistance when faced with a clean out. A department store in Atlanta, GA was faced with this difficulty, and they eventually found themselves in the hands of Junk King; the region’s best solution for everything junk hauling and removal. Read on to see how Junk King assisted in the clean out of a local department store.

Why Commercial Owners and Managers are Turning to Junk King

 

As mentioned above, department stores are known for their large interiors—this is how they make the most profit, offering a variety of goods to match a variety of needs, to a variety of people. Unfortunately, this also means that disposal options for department stores (and similar businesses) are limited. The dumpsters, hidden somewhere behind or underneath these large stores, are often collected weekly or every other week, but that doesn’t mean that they accept everything that the company may need removed. 

 

Many materials that come out of commercial businesses cannot be taken by their weekly dumpster service providers; and those materials that are taken, are usually not responsibly or properly recycled. Additionally, hard to recycle materials like construction or landscaping debris are not accepted in those weekly dumpsters. That’s not even including their inability to take complex machines, appliances, and equipment

 

As a result, company and property—owners and managers, that is—are basically left to deal with these issues themselves: it’s often not considered the responsibility of the parent company to assist their franchise owners. This is where Junk King offers assistance, across all of North America. 

 

How Junk King is Providing the Best Removal Solutions for Commercial Businesses

 

Junk King is known as the top-rated removal service in North America; the services that they provide are a direct reflection of that rating. In the case of commercial services, Junk King offers two possible removal solutions for use: the first option is a favorite of suburban homeowners—the Junk King roll-away dumpsters. This is also known as the self-service option

 

In contrast, the second option is the favorite of business owners: the full-service option. This second option is the favorite of business owners and property managers because it consists of a Junk King removal crew, removing and hauling away every item. This means that the owner or manager can rely on the professionals to take care of all of their removal needs, while they tend to other projects. 

 

Part of Junk King’s top-rated business practices includes every part of the client experience. For example, after each removal job, Junk King provides mild cleaning services and protective materials. In the case of an Atlanta department store, this could mean the vacuuming of residual dust or the laying down of floor protection before the removal begins. 

 

A Department Store Clean Out with Junk King Franchisees Harry and Jimmy Van Buren 

 

Every removal that Junk King assists with, begins with a call to our world-class customer service team. Here, business owners are given both options, and they also discuss any sort of additional aspects that should be considered (i.e. small or limited space, multiple stories, necessary demolition, or the uninstallation of machines or equipment). 

 

After this, as the removal date approaches the department store will end up clearing out the ‘removal area’, putting everything they want to keep either out of the agreed-upon area, or to the side of it. It is also during this time when Junk King representatives begin to do reconnaissance for the upcoming removal. In the case of a local department store in Atlanta, GA, this meant a visit from Junk King Cobb County co-owner, Jimmy Van Buren—one of the sons of the Atlanta Junk King family, headed by Harry Van Buren, owner of Junk King North Atlanta and Gwinnett, and also co-owner of Cobb County. 

 

Harry Van Buren has also spoken about the importance of this step, in a recent 2022 interview held with him:

 

“There [is] a lot of preliminary work that has to be done [before we can start the removal process. In the case of this particular department store, we were able to] help them move stuff around to help free up the space, but there was a bit of preparatory work on their part. They had to get their docks cleaned so we could park our dumpsters, [for example].” 

 

Upon meeting the store managers of this particular department store, Jimmy began preparing his team for the upcoming clean out: “It definitely takes [a bit of effort to work these jobs]. You know, you have to make sure all the crews are lined up and make sure you have all the right equipment…I went earlier in the week and met with the manager prior to even doing the job so we [could build] a little bit of a relationship.” 

 

His father, Harry also offered up some insight into this removal as well as others that they’ve done:

 

“We knew what we needed to bring because [of Jimmy’s meeting. This turned out to be important] because there were safes and cabinets involved…every time we do a preliminary visit to the stores, we are getting prepared to make sure we are bringing all the right tools and equipment and the right number of [haulers, too].” 

 

After these important preliminary visits, Junk King is able to discern the scope of the removal, as well as any potentially problematic situations (i.e. cabinets are bolted to the floor, or there are objects that need to be protected during the move). During this step, the store managers are also made aware of any preliminary work that they might need to finish before the removal begins.

 

On the day of the removal, the Junk King crews and trucks show up. Each commercial removal job taken on by Junk King is special, in that they take extra care to operate within a company’s requirements. For the most recent department store clean out, this meant each crew member being properly prepared equipment-wise, and properly dressed for the removal; in this particular job, that meant wearing high visibility safety vests, gloves, and masks. Additionally, this clean out was completed in the late evening, so all crew members also had flashlights available for the outside portions of the removal. 

 

After the arrival of the Junk King trucks, the crews get to work—assisting with any leftover preliminaries that weren’t completed, as well as preparing for the actual removals. This includes dropping floor protective materials onto the floors of the department store. Harry Van Buren also mentioned this during his and his son’s recent interview, saying at the meeting with the store managers, Jimmy [also]

 

“went to make sure that we had dollies that had the correct wheels [for this job]. We also cleaned the wheels of the dollies, so there was no possibility that we would [soil] their floors.” 

 

Only four hours after their arrival, the Van Buren team of removers had completed the work. They loaded and removed six trucks worth of cabinets and fixtures from the department store. Such a quick turnaround wouldn’t have been possible without those early meetings that were conducted by Jimmy. It was at those that Jimmy was able to accurately estimate the amount of removal power and trucks needed to finish the removal entirely. In this case, that meant putting together a team of eight removal professionals, as well as Jimmy himself and his father.

Jimmy expressed the organization for the Junk King team on this removal as being very efficient: 

 

Two of the eight [removers] were doing demolition, they needed to take the stuff apart. They were taking stuff of the walls, unbolting cabinets from the floor. Four of the guys were transporting stuff to the trucks to be taken away. Then there were at least two others helping the guys load the trucks. Harry and I were over seeing, as well as helping [clean and move] too.

 

That efficiency also carried through to the end of the removal. When many people hire removal companies, they expect the removers to really only be concerned with the removal of the items. However this isn’t the case with Junk King; instead, Junk King goes out of its way to go above and beyond what is expected of them. Harry Van Buren made the following comment about the after-care that they provide: 

 

When we finished cleaning up—sweeping and getting it all clean—the managers were over the top excited. But we [decided to go] above and beyond for sure: we ended up [assisting them in taking some complex items apart], we also put some stuff up in the ceilings that they needed off the floor, so the managers loved us. [This has happened at all of the] stores we’ve done so far…We always try to do a little bit of above and beyond.

 

But of course, Junk King services do not end there. After hauling away six full truckloads of junk and stuff from the department store, the Junk King crews returned to their recycling hub and began to break down the collected junk. In this most recent clean out, this meant breaking down glass cabinets into their most basic parts. Harry also made a comment about the process during the interview, saying

“we recycled everything that we could possibly recycle in terms of metal…[what cases we could] reuse, were reused. But everything else was broken down into their [materials] and recycled from there. All the other woods and materials went straight to the transfer station [to await the recycling shipment trucks].”

Small Business, Big Waste, and a Hauler to Move It All—Junk King Atlanta

self service dumpster rental services

All small businesses produce big wastes—it’s part of the process. The difference between those small businesses and the big guys is that the big guys have a removal and disposal program, small businesses normally don’t start out with one. Most small businesses may consider getting a removal service, but will usually opt-out and choose to go for a self-option or the ever-wonderful staff option. Both versions seem to be immediately available and cheaper than hiring a removal service; but in reality, choosing to do removal services yourself tends to result in injuries, potential workplace drama, lackadaisical progress, and more time spent playing around and killing time than working. 

If you’ve already started to consider your options for removal services, you’re already on the right path. Picking the right one, though, is the second portion of the equation—which we can help with!—instead, your first considerations should be directed at your business (like they aren’t all the time already?). 

 

Need Junk Removal Immediately? Book An Appointment Today!

 

To begin, consider what wastes your business produces. Is the waste hazardous, bulky, heavy, dangerous, or anything else? After considering what types of waste your business is producing, you can then think about why those wastes are being produced. Could more parts of the material be saved or could production times be cut down if the wastes are managed better? Next, consider if there are any prevention methods that can be utilized to halt the majority of the big piece wastes. For example, if you find your production practices are resulting in big pieces of lites being broken, perhaps it’s time to consider another avenue of production. Updating your production methods after a few decades will always bring to light parts of your business that could also use some changing or updating. Utilize this period to implement some new rules or culture to really change up how things have been done normally; and, if you end up buying a new big machine, call on Junk King to remove the retired one. Machines are big and difficult to recycle, but if they can be recycled, Junk King is the one to do it. 

 

The waste stream composition for the United States is significant. Recover, a government-backed recycling solution says that “currently, the U.S. recycles about 30% of its waste stream, even though the EPA estimates that up to 75% of our waste stream is recyclable. Over 60% of the average landfill is composed of paper, metals, glass, plastics, and food waste.” Consider what these numbers might look like for the average small business that is involved in the production of some sort; packaging, raw materials, wasted pieces, broken items, or retired machines all further contribute to the wastes that small businesses produce by virtue of them just existing. Thankfully, there are many options that will save the small business owner from being overrun with junk and trash as they try to work; Junk King Atlanta is one of those options.

Recycling with Small Businesses—Junk King Atlanta, Dumpster Rental Services

 

The EPA has a lot to say about recycling, but some of the most interesting aspects of recycling have to do with the types of items that recycling facilities might reject. Each recycling facility has special rules for what they will and won’t take, so it won’t do to drop off a truckload of mixed up wastes, the recyclers won’t be able to use it all. Knowing what your recycling facility does take is a simple process that involves a quick Google search. The EPA says this, about the differences between facilities:

 

Your local recycling facility might not accept all recyclable items. This is especially true with plastics. While plastic bottles are the most commonly recycled plastic products, other practices may or may not be accepted in your area, so first check what your local recycling provider accepts. It is important to understand that the existence of a plastic resin code on the product does not guarantee that the product is recyclable in your area. 

 

So, what is a small business owner supposed to do if the recycling facilities in their area are not taking the wastes they produce? What’s more, is if the facilities do take their wastes, does the owner use their own time to fill a truck, spend the gas getting to the facility, and then spend more time and labor and cost for the facilities to take the waste? That time could be better managed if staff or employees contributed, but then you pay for their non-working labor instead of your own time—and that’s not including the possibility of you needing to pay for their gas and any injuries that may occur as a result of the hauling. Instead, partner with the removal service that gives you all of the tools that you would ever need for every job, without extra costs or downtime.

Junk King Atlanta MINI Dumpsters: Your Solution for Small Business Removals 

dumpster rental services

There are two options that each person receives when working with Junk King; the first, is the option for self-service, while the other is options for full-service. The latter refers to an entire, all-encompassing, experience—complete with a crew of two or more people to assist in the removal process. Sometimes though, if you work with precious materials or need a trained eye to see if something is salvageable, your best bet will be utilizing the self-service option. It should be noted though, that even with the MINI, the risk of doing any junk removal yourself (or having your staff do it) could result in injuries. 

 

The Junk King self-service is unlike the self-service option from above. The Junk King version involves a roll-away dumpster called a MINI, and while the work will need to be done by capable staff, the time and costs of the event will dramatically be cut down. The Junk King MINI is a dumpster small enough to fit into a driveway, yet large enough to take on the largest and heaviest of loads. It has 12 cubic yards of space to fill—and what’s better, is that you only pay for the portions of the space that you use. This means that instead of ordering a full-sized dumpster and ‘filling it’ only to come away with half of it full, and still needing to pay for the entire dumpster—you can fill half of a MINI, only pay for that half of used space. Additionally, the compact size of the MINI means that it can be put into tight spaces, off the streets, and in a discrete location for maximum privacy as you empty out the back (or front) of your small business.

Dumpster Rental: The Answer to Construction and Demolition Debris in Atlanta

Dumpster Rental

 

Junk King is best known in the junk hauling world for being both the greenest option for removals in North America and for being the top-rated hauling service for customer service.

However, Junk King also offers a range of services for businesses and companies; some of the most difficult junk to haul comes from these sources, and Junk King is proud to handle these cases. For us, it’s as simple as 1, 2, 3—point and it’s gone.

Identifying Construction and Demolition Debris with Junk King North Atlanta

 

Atlanta Dumpster Rental

 

Contractors and project managers all know that every part of a project must be watched as closely as possible in order to ensure the desired end result of a process. What is commonly overlooked though, is the inevitable construction/demolition (C&D) debris. It can be hard to even identify the debris because it feels somehow wrong to call material from construction ‘debris’ since we only ever really use the term with a disastrous inference. The EPA has a good list that can be considered the basic materials of C&D:

 

C&D materials are generated when new building and civil-engineering structures are built and when existing buildings and civil-engineering structures are renovated or demolished (including deconstruction activities). Civil-engineering structures include public works projects, such as streets and highways, bridges, utility plants, piers, and dams. C&D materials often contain bulky, heavy materials such as: concrete, wood, asphalt, gypsum, metals, bricks, glass, plastics, salvaged building components, or trees, stumps, earth, and rocks from clearing sites. 

 

The majority of C&D materials cannot be recycled in their current state. This means that if you simply load up a work truck with leftover material and take it to the local general waste landfill—all of that material is going to go straight into the landfill. There needs to be a secondary filter that happens between the construction site and the landfill—and Junk King is that filter. As mentioned before, Junk King has a strict commitment to adhering to the Green Movement—for residential purposes, this means at least 60% of the junk that is hauled is recycled by our team. For construction material, this threshold is normally higher, since most C&D materials can be recycled into further objects. Choosing to work with Junk King in this respect then, is the difference between throwing an entire tree worth of wood into the landfill versus into a combine to be recycled again and again. Many materials harvested from C&D can be reused, assuming that they are saved before going to the local landfill. For example, salvaged materials like doors, hardware, or even appliances can be pulled out of the junk pile and rebuild for donation pieces. Wood can be saved for a variety of uses, including blockings or chipped down into mulch or ground cover. Even insulation from exteriors can be saved and donated to a construction group for the building of low-income homes.

 

The difficulty then comes in knowing what materials Junk King can legally take, and which ones we cannot. Concrete, asphalt, and soil are a no-go in our books—other than that, we also cannot take paints, finishers, or anything that can be considered hazardous. The upside to this is that we can take things like large appliancesmattresses, and even e-wastes. These three things alone are not typically picked up by your local hauling services, but Junk King takes them, and that puts us head and shoulders above the rest of the competition because we handle what the other guys will not or cannot.

An Increase in Population Means an Increase in C&D—Call Junk King North Atlanta to Help

 

It is no secret that the population around the world is increasing, even despite the newest generations having fewer children than ever before. This is important because of Atlanta’s current resident-to-home ratio. As the population increases, there will be a drive for additional housing, jobs, marketplaces, production factories, and of course, additional amenities which are specific to each of those groups. It is projected that “between 2015 and 2050, the metro Atlanta region’s total population and employment are forecast to increase by 51% and 34% respectively, within the same 30-year period.” Gwinnett county, for example, is expecting 588,000+ new residents by the year 2050. It’s necessary that before this influx of residents occurs, Atlanta constructs a reasonable amount of resources for them. This is where Junk King can step in for assistance. Junk King’s business-to-business service offers more resources than the traditional residential versions. For example, Junk King offers payment plans for those who wish to utilize them when dealing with commercial removal. Junk King also insures each of its crew members ensure that all of our bases are covered; this protects our clients, and us while we work.

What is Commercial Junk Removal? How does Junk King North Atlanta Handle Big Projects?

 

 

Every project is unique when it comes to Junk King and the best way to approach the removal. Even for construction and demolition projects, there are special tools and manners in which materials are gathered and removed. Luckily, Junk King’s services are so versatile that we’re often called before a construction or demolition project begins, during the process, and after the main pieces are put up/taken down. We always encourage calling us before starting a project because our teams are equipped for every stage of the process. This means, if you are erecting a building on your property for the first time, our yard services and tools will greatly help with the clearing process, yard debris doesn’t stand a chance against us. In contrast, if you are planning to demolish a structure, it is always necessary to remove everything from within the structure before you start. This includes office furnitureany sort of scrap pick-up, or the removal of old commercial equipment. This lowers the chances of injury while ensuring that there is nothing valuable that was missed. Thinking about doing this can also be very helpful when thinking about full-scale cleanouts for the future. 

 

Further, it’s always a good idea to call us once or twice during the middle of the process. Many contractors are great planners but collecting and removing junk and debris isn’t really their job. In many cases they may end up not having room to put anything; this will result in piles of materials in the backyard with the kids and pets, or the driveway, for all your neighbors to see. In the case of commercial businesses, this can mean piles of open-air materials, which can become a legal issue if someone wanders into the material area; or, the materials are moved around constantly, setting up the contractors to step on nails or receive other injuries. Calling Junk King once or twice in this stage ensures that your team is working as cleanly as they can, which speeds up the process and lifts spirits which a project is taking too long.

 

It’s always a good idea to call us as your project is finishing up too. As the bulk of the project finishes, calling us allows you to get one more chance at removing any unused material, but it also lets you have one more opportunity to commit to the design you’ve chosen. Sometimes after a building has been built, the interior orange that was chosen doesn’t look as happy as it had in our minds… meanwhile, the end of a demolition project having Junk King dumpsters is incredibly important. The end period for these projects is not the time where there is the most junk, but it is the time where clean-up is the most important. Ensuring that you start a new project with a clean slate to work with will do wonders for the new construction in the long term.

Reasons You Might Need to Rent A Dumpster in Atlanta

Dumpster Rental

 

Whether you have a mound of trash you need to be removed from your life, or a pile of junk in the spare room that needs gutting—call Junk King in Northern Atlanta to get the assistance you need. There are a lot of different reasons why you might need to rent a dumpster for your property projects. Dumpster rentals are one of the best solutions for both residential owners and business owners because of their competitive pricing and versatility. If you’re considering getting a dumpster, you can contact us via one of our three options; or if you are still in the ‘thinking about it’ phase, read on to see a little more about how we can help your projects—only at Junk King in Northern Atlanta.

Why Rent a Dumpster from Junk King North Atlanta

If you’ve never rented a dumpster before, there could be a resistance to doing so. Maybe you’re nervous that you don’t have enough to fill the dumpster—so you may end up losing money on the deal. Maybe you’re worried that it won’t fit in your driveway, so you’ll need to put it in the street and annoy the neighbors. Maybe you’re just worried about how the ordering and process happens in general. Junk King has an answer to every one of these worries (and more). Additionally, Junk King knows that there is a lot of reasons why you might want a dumpster to make your life easier; here are four of those situations (although there are countless others to consider).  

 

Full-Scale or Large Clean-outs

Not everything in life works out the way we think it will. For situations like this, Junk King offers a full-service removal option. That may seem quite excessive if you’re only looking at the words themselves. After all, most people need a clean-out because one or two rooms of their home have become filled with junk. However, the attraction to our full-service removals comes in the form of our top-rated customer service. Each full-service order comes with a crew of our specially trained removal professionals, as well as a truck to take it all away in. This means that you just have to point, and we’ll take care of the rest. 

 

Removals like this often come in the form of a few rooms that have been overrun with junk—but that doesn’t mean that it only applies to these situations. These clean-outs can also be done to things like storage units, businesses, tenet-free apartments, even entire houses can be gutted by our professionals. Our teams come with one of our Junk King trucks—the inside of which can hold the same amount as six pickup trucks. This means that you can fill the entire truck, and most likely still have a little room left over. (By the way, that worry about not using all of the space, and wasting money because the dumpster isn’t full? That’s not a worry with Junk King—with us, you only pay for the space that you use, not the entire truck or dumpster!)

 

Moving or Vacating a Property

When it comes time for you or a loved one to move, give us a call first. By calling us first, you can utilize our services to make the entire process easier and faster than ever before. You can rent one of our special MINI dumpsters—they are smaller than your average roll-away dumpster, meaning that they can fit in your driveway perfectly (avoiding those neighbors). They also hold 12 cubic feet of junk and trash, which means you can fit a very large amount of stuff inside of them before they are filled. This is a self-service option in which you trade extra hands (full-service) for time (multiple days). We suggest renting a MINI at the beginning of the moving process, but also at the end—a few days before you leave for the last time. In hiring us for a second time, you can make sure that everything is picked up, cleaned out, and thrown away that needs to be thrown away. 

 

Another draw to ordering a self-service dumpster from Junk King is the savings you net in time and money. All of the hassles that happen with moving normally ignite a lot of tensions and stresses in life; you can reduce that stress by getting help from professionals. Consider the situation if you instead chose to use the general waste site in place of a Junk King MINI: you’d need to load up your biggest car, drive to the site, pay for whatever you have, and then pay additionally for any extra weight, unload the junk, then drive all the way home. Now, do that five or six times at the start of the moving process. Obviously, there are more savings to be had by just ordering a MINI

 

Renovations

Almost all property owners know the problems that come from wanting to do renovations. There are permits involved, professionals walking through your home, contractors arguing for resources—and to make it all more stressful, a mess that may or may not be cleaned up by the professionals that are hired. You can make the renovation easier on yourself and the people that you hire, by renting a roll-away dumpster. It may be tempting to say that the contractors should clean up after themselves (since they are the ones that broke the wall, right?) but in reality, it can be an unsafe and time-consuming job to clean the work site after said work has started. This means that things aren’t cleaned until the very end in many cases, since they usually don’t have removal means necessary on construction days. This leads to continuous construction debris and an increasingly unsafe environment while things are being updated. 

 

Instead, by renting a MINI from Junk King you’ll have a place to put all of that debris and useless material (that isn’t your backyard where your kids play). Even full-scale businesses can greatly benefit from getting a dumpster during their renovations. Things like wall dust and broken lights are a work hazard for professional contractors—not for office workers with corporate deadlines. The waste management for these jobs is especially important because it is the difference between a nail going into a dumpster, or into the shoe of a child or CEO. 

 

Cleaning for Events

Some of the most anticipated events every year are the holidays and family gatherings. Many people have memories of their mothers waking up early to clean for an entire week before important events. This has changed somewhat in the last decade, as the newer generations of adults don’t normally feel the same pressures that their parents did. However, this doesn’t mean that all of the pressure is gone—it has just migrated. Instead of there being pressure for a pristine home, there is pressure for there to be bigger and better entertainment areas and toys. The appearance of both just happen to correspond to needing clean areas in order to best entertain and enjoy. This is one of the draws of Junk King’s self-service model. The MINIs begin at a three-day rental period, which means that you have the time to clean up all areas of your home for the upcoming engagements. 

 

Junk King services are also highly desirable for anything involving outdoor removals of yard wastes. This is extremely beneficial for those people who are doing new installations during the spring or fall, as well as being important for clean-up after storms or before the holidays claw their way out of the depths of winter. Yard debris cleaning can be a challenging thing for many removal companies, but for Junk King, it isn’t a challenge at all.

What Size Dumpster Do I Need to Rent?

Dumpster Rental

 

If you’re a landlord or homeowner that is very handy around the property of your tenants and/or family. You pride yourself on fixing things when they go wrong, and if you can’t fix it, you can find the people that will. You’ve recently (or not) come to the conclusion that you need some help with junk removal from your property and are considering a dumpster rental, but now you don’t know what size to get or who to get it from. You may just be looking at your options, and not be fully committed to the idea of getting a dumpster, for fear that it might look “excessive”.

 

No matter what your reason is for getting a dumpster, Junk King Atlanta is here to provide it to you. Junk King North Atlanta is your local answer for everything related to junk removal, just give us a call to find out more about how we can help you.

Junk King North Atlanta’s Reasons to Get a Dumpster 

 

We here at Junk King know that there are almost limitless reasons for a person to want or need a dumpster at their property. We know this because we have seen many situations where getting a dumpster would have made everything easier for everyone. We even have a comprehensive list of everything we take in our roll-away dumpsters, regardless of whether you choose to fill the dumpster yourself with our self-service option, or you want a little help from our professional removal teams, with our full-service option. If you’re not sure that your project requires a dumpster to complete, here are a few situations where you’d want to get a dumpster—in both residential and business instances. 

 

Disasters 

Are often characterized by insurance companies as being all or nothing. In the real world, nothing is really that black and white, especially with property damages. Look at storms, floods, fires, tornados, accidents, or the yearly hurricane season. The worst cases mean that someone has lost everything—but the cases that we don’t hear in the news are the other 90% of people, those who now need help cleaning up what is left over as the smoke clears. Cleaning up after a disaster is time-consuming and emotionally draining. Call us to help

 

Cleanouts 

Are one of the most common reasons that people call us. From basements that are filled with boxed-up memories to garages that are filled top to bottom with oils, paints, and old junk—even your local hoarding situation, dumpsters are your best friends. In some cases, we even will offer the ability to do a full removal of a lite structure that can be broken down, like a dilapidated shed or a PVC pipe greenhouse. In cases like cleanouts, we always recommend getting the full-service option, since these sorts of removals can take a long time to do by yourself. 

 

Renovations 

Are some of the best instances to call us. Whether you are a landlord looking to upgrade your housing for new tenants or you’re a homeowner who is over that ugly orange countertop that the prior owners installed—Junk King in North Atlanta is at your service. The most common housing renovations include kitchens and bathrooms, while the most common business renovations include opening pathways for doors and the removal of construction wastes. (We should take a moment to note here that while we do take construction waste, we do not take hazardous materials, dirt, soil, concrete, or gravel.) 

 

Moving

Is something that everyone will do multiple times in their life. This doesn’t mean that the entire process should be stressful from the inception of the idea to the moment you hand over the keys. Moving.com is one of the most looked at sources for preparing to move, and they even suggest getting some help if you can. There is an important aspect to this reason that is often overlooked. When we talk about moving, it implies moving the entire home and all of your belongings to a new location. It doesn’t need to mean that, however. You may need to get rid of some unused junk to make room for someone new who is moving into your home, or for a nursery for a coming baby. 

 

Yards

Are something that most of us have, the luckiest of us may have quite a large yard space—and there are plenty of reasons to get a dumpster if you have a yard of any size. Take for instance, if you are wanting to get or change your landscaping. There is bound to be a lot of yard waste from the process and getting one of our dumpsters will save you time and labor that would otherwise be spent on cleanup. The same can be said for new installs like pools, retaining walls, outside fireplaces, or outside kitchens—all of these require removal help, and who better to help than the professionals at Junk King? 

 

Cleaning

Is in everyone’s mind during the spring and fall months. We get taught as children that there is such a thing as “spring cleaning”. As adults, we eventually learn about the “fall cleaning” too, which is relatively new, and necessary for the other half of the six-month maintenance timetable. The good thing about these biannual cleanings, as old school as they may be, is that it gives everyone a chance to buckle down and clean for a few weeks. This results in a better, cleaner environment for everyone, and a more enjoyable year overall. 

 

Properties

are obviously the name of the game for us—but just saying the word “property” doesn’t tell you anything about what we can do for you (but it does tell you that we value consistency). What is meant by properties, are we helping with situations that involve the property itself. For example, we are able to provide assistance in cleaning out foreclosed homes, helping remove junk and trash left over by tenants, and we can even help when it is time to move your loved one into a hospice. A property cleanout is no challenge for us, so we always suggest ordering a full-service option to get you all of the help you could ever need with your removal.

What Goes into Dumpster Rental Costs? Junk King North Atlanta Can Help

 

All dumpster rental companies and junk haulers will have their own way of doing business. Since most roll-away dumpsters are all rated for the same type of stuff, we can make some assumptions about what your rental costs will rack up to be. Consider the following as impacting your costs:

 

  • -Dumpster size (from the biggest to the smallest)

 

  • -Dumpster availability (some locations have more than others)

 

  • -Rental periods (ranging from days to weeks)

 

  • -Total weight of the removal inside of the dumpster

 

  • -Type of stuff being removed (since e-waste needs to be disposed of properly)

You’ll also normally be billed for the entire dumpster, which means you’ll want to fill it up while you have it, and thus increase the weight, and then increase the cost further. 

 

In comparison to this, Junk King has multiple unique features that set us apart from the other guys. For example, our dumpsters range in sizes, the most common being our MINIs. These are 12 cubic yards, giving enough room for even the most daunting hauls, and still being manageable enough to fit into a residential driveway. We also have a policy that states that you only pay for the portion of the dumpster that you use, so you can take up the bottom half of a MINI, and only pay for the removal of that half, instead of the entire space. Take a look at our estimator to see what sort of quote you could get right now.

What Dumpster Size to Get & The Junk King MINI in North Atlanta

For all the reasons you could want a dumpster, there are also a large number of options for what size dumpster you should get. Many people think that bigger is better, but in this case, bigger could mean a blocked road and extra costs that could have been avoided. Here are some of the most popular dumpster sizes and what they are best used for according to Moving.com:

 

  • 10 Cubic Yard Dumpsters: can hold between 4,000 to 6,000 pounds. “Good for small home pre-move junk removal and small to medium landscaping projects.”

 

  • 15 Cubic Yard Dumpsters: can hold between 4,000 to 6,000 pounds. “Good for small remodels, roofing jobs, and large landscaping projects.”

 

  • 20 Cubic Yard Dumpsters: can hold up to 6,000 pounds usually. “Good for kitchen and other extensive room remodels as well as large home pre-move junk removal.”

 

  • 30 Cubic Yard Dumpsters: can hold between 7,000 to 10,000 pounds. “Good for renovations and other whole house construction projects, as well as whole house cleanouts.”

 

  • 40 Cubic Yard Dumpsters: can hold between 10,000 to 12,000 pounds. “Good for major construction projects, demolitions, and large scale renovations.”

 

As mentioned before, we at Junk King also offer an option unique to us, our fabulous MINI dumpsters. At 12 cubic yards, these little guys are the sweet spot for almost all home junk removals. It fits inside of your driveway, and it also is safer and greener for the environment. (We should add that we are the greenest junk removal company in North America—60% of every haul away is recycled!)

Full-Service Dumpsters Or Self-Service Roll-Away: Your Pick from Junk King North Atlanta

There are a lot of options to choose from in life—you only get two when it comes to dumpsters though, refreshing right? Depending on what your goals are for your junk removal, you should consider the full-service option or the self-service option as two distinct and great possibilities. As mentioned before, our self-service option involves a miniature dumpster which you can fill over the course of a few days; our full-service option is a bit heftier, involving a full-sized dumpster and a team of professionals to help you remove anything in your path. So, which one should you get for your removal needs? Here are some things to think about when making your choice.

– Do you want professionals to handle everything, or do you want more privacy?

– Can you get everything you need to be removed in a small time frame or do you need longer to remove things?

– Are you going to need help to remove heavy things, or do you have people to help you?

– How much stuff do you need to be removed? Are 12-cubic yards enough or do you need more?

Protect Your Landscape when Junk King Dumpsters Arrive

All dumpsters, from the biggest options to the smallest options, may come with some issues regarding your landscape. This is often because of how and where the dumpster needs to be placed to allow for traffic flow, and since not all driveways are created equal, this can potentially mean some crushed grass and landscaping. This is not usually an issue for residential homes as much as it is for commercial properties, but it is still good to be mindful of these tricks when ordering a dumpster.

When you go to order your dumpster, think deeply about its size and its placement. Junk King offers the smallest possible dumpsters in the market, but that doesn’t mean that the placement won’t matter. If you have a curved driveway or a very narrow one, there may be some overlap with the landscape beside the driveway.

In these cases, our goal is to get your junk loaded up and removed as quickly as possible to remove and prevent further damages from happening. You can help this process by thinking about this beforehand, and either adding coverage to that possible damaged areas, adding soil to those places to regrow whatever is crushed, or you can cover the area with something like plywood. However, it should be noted that leaving plywood in the same place for a long time can end up killing off plants beneath it.

Protect Your Driveway in North Atlanta – Tips from Junk King Removal Services

Those of us who are lucky enough to have a driveway, know that keeping it in good condition is a necessity. The Housing Associations which watch our homes make sure that it is in good condition in a variety of ways—including giving you possible fines for any damages that they see. Further, local codes may require that you have the dumpster parked in your driveway due to traffic concerns. All of this bundled up together means that you can only really put it in your space; keeping that space protected is a very important thing. No matter if your driveway is asphalt or concrete, your driveway can only take so much abuse before it retains damage—here are some tips to help prevent that damage for as long as possible when you order a dumpster.

 

Invest In Boards Like Plywood

This might not be the first thing you think about when it comes to protecting your driveway, but it is the best way to do it. Roll-away dumpsters concentrate all of the weight that is put in them straight into their lowest parts; this includes their wheels and their skeleton supports on the bottom. If the dumpster is heavily loaded, these points will sink further with the increased weight, and this can result in either dents from the wheels and supports when the dumpster is removed, or it can scrape the driveway during removal, leaving scratches and deep gashes. Placing plywood over the dumpster section will give you a buffer between the dumpster and the face of the driveway.

 

Think About Possible Stains

Have you seen those oil stains that get accumulated on driveways from old cars? Many HoAs end up giving fines to those people who have them. Other, more questionable stains can also garner attention from them too. If you have plywood below your dumpster, you already have a good chance of catching those run-away stains, but make sure that you consider other areas which could get them. Place and weigh a tarp at the lower end of your dumpster, if it is on an uneven driveway; place an additional tarp at the entrance of the dumpster, this way the tarp will catch any last-minute accidents (and those do happen).

Considering the Bagster® Bag

 

At four feet deep, eight feet long, and two and half feet high, the Bagster® Bag can hold up to three cubic yards of waste or debris. WM gives it a maximum weight capacity of about 3,300 pounds.

 

So, how much is that?

 

By volume that’s equivalent to placing four large clothes dryers inside and still having room to spare. And by weight that’s like loading one cubic yard of asphalt, brick, concrete, dirt, rock, sand, sod, or stucco siding.

 

Dumpster Rental Atlanta Junk King

 

The Bagster® Bag and the Junk King MINI are two vastly different products; one is green while the other is red, one is made of fabric tarp while the other is metal, one can accept nearly anything while the other just doesn’t hold up, and possibly the most important factor: one is a better rental. It wouldn’t be a very good argument to say that Junk King MINIs are better without proving it, so here’s the proof:

The Bagster® Bags:

 

Produced by Waste Management, these big pop-ups do a lot of things right for junk hauling and removals. The Bagster® is rather large (holding up to three cubic yards), it also is capable of holding most debris (just short of large items and hazardous waste materials), they also have a low downpayment up-front, and you are able to keep the Bagster® until you are ready to pay to have it removed.

 

At that point, a Waste Management truck will arrive, weigh the loaded bag, and then load it onto the truck. After this will be the second, more substantial payment for the actual removal of the trash. 

 

Pretty much everything other than standard hazardous waste materials – and appliances. However, you can load it up with old furniture, construction debris, old lumber, masonry, decking, carpeting, and so on.

 

The process is fairly simple: you can pick up a Bagster® bag at home improvement stores or online. And then, according to WM, when a Bagster® bag is full, simply schedule a collection online or over the phone.

 

Pricing is fairly simple, as well. According to WM, the cost of a Bagster® is typically $30. The price of pickup fees for the Bagster® will vary depending on where you live. However, it would seem that the approximate cost is around $160.

The Junk King MINI Dumpster:

 

In contrast, is the MINI; a roll-away dumpster option produced by Junk King, and changing how do-it-yourself junk hauling is done. In comparison to the Bagster®, the MINI is massive with its 12 cubic yards of interior space; the MINI is also able to hold multiple large appliances because of its metal exterior; and although you only keep the dumpster for three to seven days, when it comes time to pick it up and have it removed there are no additional or hidden fees—you only pay for the space that’s used

Of course, the best option for you and your goals could be either one; the Bagster® is great for smaller or lighter loads, while the MINI is better for heavier or bigger loads. If you were to do storm clean-up after a moderate storm, the Bagster® would likely be a good service to use.

 

However, if that storm is a big one, or there are downed trees and ruined fences, you’re going to want the bigger, stronger, option—it just makes sense. The bigger the project, the bigger equipment you need to get the job done.

 

A good rule of thumb for when to ‘step up’ to the MINI, is by looking at the difference in both options compared to your timeline. If you have a small to mid-sized project happening across a few months, order the Bagster® and take your time; but, if you have a project that is medium to large but needs to happen quickly, the MINI is the better option.

 

Additionally, don’t underestimate the size of dumpster you need to complete the project: since the Bagster® is only three cubic feet, you’d need four of them to equal the space that the MINI offers. 

 

We already mentioned that the MINI Dumpster from Junk King Atlanta North is driveway-safe. That’s because of the specially designed polymer wheels. This means it can be placed anywhere you need it on your property without fear of damaging concrete.

 

We also said our dumpster rental option is user-friendly. That’s because, unlike the Bagster® Bag, the MINI has steel sides and won’t collapse when you are trying to fill it. The MINI Dumpster is only four feet high, so it is easy to load. And because it’s only eight feet wide and eleven feet long, it takes up no more room than a full-size pickup truck.

 

But it can hold far more than a Bagster® Bag!

 

With a massive 12-cubic yard debris capacity, it can hold the equivalent of eight of those large clothes dryers – and with room left over for more junk. In fact, it has four times the capacity of a WM Bagster® Bag. And the weight isn’t even a consideration.

 

By the way… do you need to toss in some old appliances (like a large clothes dryer?) No worries. You can do that with a Junk King MINI Dumpster.

 

And, like everyone else, we cannot take hazardous wastes, but we can take just about anything and everything else in our dumpster rental.

 

Also, you can schedule a MINI Dumpster rental right here in the North Atlanta area with a quick phone call. Our courteous and expert team will deliver the roll-off dumpster and place it for you. After three days, our team will return to pick up your dumpster rental.

 

Unlike some dumpster rental services, Junk King never charges by the weight of the load. We only charge you for the amount of space taken up in the MINI Dumpster when you’re done with it. And, speaking of which, if you need it for more than just three days, we can arrange for a five day or even a seven day rental period.

The Junk King MINI Dumpster: A Red Dumpster Rental and Green Disposal Process

 

Junk King Atlanta North is proud to be a part of the only national company to operate with the goal of recycling 60 percent or more of every load we pick up. This is part of our eco-friendly mission to ensure that as much junk that we collect as possible is recycled or donated.

 

In fact, Junk King pioneered recycling-based junk removal when the company was founded back in 2005. And it has been a “green” operation ever since. One of the ways this happens is by sorting all the materials we pick up in our recycling warehouses.

 

And at Junk King Atlanta North, we are just as committed to keeping as many of your items as possible out of our landfills. In fact, many local junk haulers simply dump junk into landfills or at incineration plants.

 

Not Junk King. We make every effort to recycle or reuse as much as we possibly can.
Whether you live in Dawsonville, Canton, Roswell, Acworth, Woodstock, or Chestnut Mountain – or even in The ATL – Junk King Atlanta North can help you keep our planet clean, green, and beautiful for the generations to come.

The Junk King: A Red Dumpster for a Green Disposal

 

Not only is the MINI superior in strength, size, and cost, it’s also part of the larger Junk King goals for the future. Junk King is driven to be the greenest junk removal company in North America, and they currently are. They’ve reached this distinction by guaranteeing a minimum of 60% of all their junk hauls being recycled, reused, repurposed, or donated. 

 

In the case of Junk King Atlanta, Harry Van Buren (owner of the Atlanta Metro Junk Kings: Atlanta North, Gwinnett, and Cobb), has pushed this expectation further—setting the Atlanta North Junk Kings on track for a mission of 95-98% of all items hauled being recycled, reused, or donated. This is possible because of the extra time that the Junk King professionals take to break down complex items.

 

Things like mattresses can be broken down into fabrics, filler, springs, and a series of other things depending on their materials. Even large appliances like refrigerators are given extra time and attention in order to reduce them into their most simplistic and useful elements. 

 

Additionally, while Junk King focuses heavily on recycling, they also know that recycling needs to be made easier for the average person. This is why Junk King does not require things like large appliances to have their liquids drained—their professionals will do it themselves, saving the client more money, time, resources, and guaranteeing that the environment is further protected. 

 

If the client had gone with Bagster®, they (1) wouldn’t be able to fit a large refrigerator in the bag due to size and weight restrictions; even if they chose a smaller refrigerator, they also (2) would be additionally charged for the draining of freon from the pipes, and they (3) may be given additional charges due to Waste Management needing to spend extra time and labor on breaking down the refrigerator into its basic elements—if they actually did it at all.

 

When You Opt for Dumpster Rental: Junk King MINI Dumpster Pricing

 

The good news is that, with Junk King Atlanta North, whether you choose our full-service junk removal or self-service dumpster rental options, you still only pay only for the space your junk items take up in our truck or MINI Dumpster.

While most companies that provide rental dumpsters charge a single price, Junk King provides flexible pricing options, which gives you better value and fair pricing.
Our MINI Dumpster rental pricing offers three tiers of prices based on how full your roll-off dumpster is when you’re finished with it:

-Minimum
-Half-full
-Full

The minimum price is also the lowest fee we’ll charge to drop off and pick up a MINI Dumpster for you. And, if you only have a few items or a small amount of debris – and fill less than a third of the bin

– you’ll likely only be charged the minimum price.

If you manage to fill the MINI Dumpster to about half full, you’ll only be charged the half-full price. And, finally, if your rental dumpster is close to full or up to the brim, you’ll be charged the full price.
When we deliver the MINI Dumpster to your home or place of work you typically keep it for three days before we return to pick it up at a pre-scheduled time. But there are times when three days isn’t quite long enough.

We get it!

Which is why we can also arrange for MINI Dumpster rental periods of five days or even seven days, if needed. And you’ll never be surprised by any hidden or added fees!

That’s because at Junk King we believe in fair and transparent pricing.

And we also believe that, as a customer, you want to know how much your junk removal is going to cost you before you schedule a dumpster rental. It seems, however, that many firms that rent dumpsters make it difficult for you to get a price estimate beforehand.

Not at Junk King Atlanta North.

Because we believe that fair and transparent pricing also means making it easy for you to get a free estimate before you decide to choose Junk King.

So, when you’re ready to get rid of that junk, trash, or debris with one of our easy-to-use and driveway-way friendly rental dumpsters, just give us a call or live chat with us from our website.

Junk King MINI Dumpster Pricing

 

The Junk King MINI is priced in a simple way in order to give clients their best price and the most accurate estimates. The price of a MINI begins with a baseline, and each quarter increment of the truck increases the cost.

 

This means you could start with a $128 baseline, and at 1/4 of the dumpster being filled that cost will go up. It will also go up at the 1/2, 3/4, and filled marks. This is very different from other truck and dumpster suppliers because usually when a residential dumpster is ordered, the client must pay for the entire truck, plus any additional weight costs. Conversely, when using Junk King, you only pay for the space that you use—and there are never any additional or hidden fees applied. 

 

In contrast, the Bagster® can usually be picked up at a home supply store or a Waste Management location for as low as $30. It will remain on your property until Waste Management is called to remove it—and at that time you are charged an additional fee based on the weight of the filled bag. More fees may also be tacked on since complex items require more effort for their facilities to process.

When You Need a Better Dumpster Rental

Everyone likes to save money and Junk King Atlanta North is ready to help you do just that with your dumpster rental needs in the greater Atlanta region.

 

Whatever junk you need to get rid of and if you need to take two, three, or more days to complete it, we believe that your best option for self-service junk removal is to call Junk King Atlanta North.

 

And that’s true not only for self-service junk removal but for our full-service option, too!

 

Junk King North Atlanta, Your Better Dumpster Rental Option

The Bagster® has many helpful aspects for the residential and small business owners—their low upfront cost, and their pop-up ability are great aspects for family shops, small properties, and home renovations. However, they hold little weight in comparison with the Junk King MINI, and they only accept a portion of the items that a MINI can comfortably handle. Overall, the Bagster® is a good choice for small projects which can last multiple months. For everything else, your time and effort are best spent on the Junk King MINI and services. 

If you’re thinking about hiring a junk removal service, remember  that with Junk King, junk removal is as simple as 1, 2, 3—just point and the junk is gone. There are three ways to contact us and four ways to get your personalized quote:

  • Call us at (888) 888 – JUNK (5865) to speak with a customer representative. From there, speak with an estimator expert to get a quote over the phone—or schedule an in-person assessment at your property for a no-obligation quote. 
  • Text pictures of your junk to (737) 888 – JUNK to receive a quote by text. 
  • Or, stay online and check out our pricing calculator. In it, you have options like picking self-service or full-service and in most cases, you can receive a ballpark estimate in a few minutes.

Getting Rid of Stuff with Atlanta’s #1 Junk Removal Service – Junk King vs. Bagster

 

There comes a time in everyone’s life when they will need assistance hauling away junk and trash. Now, more than ever before, getting that assistance is easy, convenient, budget-friendly, and eco-friendly. Since so many great options for junk removal exist, it would be helpful to know about some of the most used services in the industry: the Junk King MINI dumpster and the Waste Management Bagster Bag. Both options offer a variety of benefits unique unto themselves, as well as their unique drawbacks:

 

  • Bagster Pros:
    • Will accept most household junk.
    • Holds up to 3,300 pounds (which calculates final costs).
    • $30 buy-in fee from a home improvement store.
  • Bagster Cons:
    • Holds three cubic yards. 
    • Cannot accept appliances
    • Cannot accept hazardous materials.
    • Prices vary greatly depending on where you live. 
    • Sides may collapse when being filled. 
    • Most of the junk will likely end up in landfills.
  • MINI Pros:
  • MINI Cons:
    • Cannot accept hazardous materials.
      • (Will accept e-wastes.)
    • Only a few days’ worths of rental time.

 

The next time you start wondering how to get rid of junk, remember that your two options are Junk King vs Bagster—a steel-walled commercial dumpster rental vs a foldable bag with good durability. Although Bagster Bag and haul away is a lesser cost, it is important to consider the difference in services; the bag will be your answer for light loads, but the MINI will be your answer for everything else. 

 

Which Pickup Is the Best for You?

 

Junk removal companies seem to all offer the same sort of services: junk and trash removal and disposal—what is different between companies are their approaches and responsibilities after the hauling is complete. In the case of Junk King, this means recycling at least 60% of the haul, while for the Bagster, this could mean simply going to the landfill. Compare the 2 services in everything from their prices and fees to their customer service ratings, and you’ll be sure to find that Junk King is the preferred option.

 

Despite this, in times of emergency or when there is little junk or trash to collect, the Bagster could be considered the better option. Rather than waiting for a drop-off date and time, you could get the bag that same day from a local home improvement store. 

 

However, it is important to note that while the Bagster is the better option for same-day emergencies with their pickup service guide, the Junk King MINI is superior in space and durability. This means that if you are looking to have large or heavy items taken away, your option is the MINI since the Bagster is unable to accept things like appliances. 

 

It is important to note that the ideal pickup option will do the following for you:

 

  • Offer you a price that is free from hidden costs and additional fees
  • Offer you a full-service option, just in case the removal is harder than it originally seemed, this is a favorite aspect of many older residents in Northern America. 
  • Offer you morally-consistent options that can assist in promoting your values such as recycling and eco-friendly ideals
  • Offer you a fast and efficient solution, no matter the circumstances. 
  • Offer you the best cost in the industry, depending on the solution itself. 
  • Offer you multiple options to suit your needs, including creating solutions that will assist you specifically. 

 

 

How Does Each Company Pickup Your Stuff?

 

In the case of Junk King, after getting some free quotes, you’ll have had 3-days, 5-days, or 7-days to fill the MINI dumpster as full as possible. On the day of the pickup, our drivers will call you within a two-hour window and let you know they will be there within 15 minutes. After that, they’ll arrive, give you a cost for your dumpster, and if you agree to the cost, our drivers will take your junk away. From there, our dumpsters will return to the Junk King recycling hub, where your junk will be sorted and at least 60% of it will be recycled, reused, donated, or fixed. 

 

In comparison, you’ll have bought the $30 Bagster from your home improvement store and filled it to its capacity (or until you run out of stuff to put in it). So, because the Bagster is bought in a distributor (store) you’ll need to call Waste Management in order for them to collect it. They will arrive at some point during the day, and they will weigh the filled Bagster. Based on where you land in their weight scale to cost chart, that will be the majority of your cost. Additional costs can apply if there are things like televisions in the Bagster or appliances since the Bagster is not rated for them. 

 

Types of pickup service offered by each company

  • Bagster Bag:
    • Pickup after a phone call
    • Weekly pickup option
    • Pickup charged by weight
  • Junk King MINI:
    • Automatic pickup after multiple days
    • Assisted pickup with professionals 
    • Also offers full-service options
    • Pickup charged by space

 

 

When Should You be Ready for Pickup?

 

When you should call for the Junk King MINI: Outfitted with steel walls that make up an interior of 12 cubic yards, the Junk King MINI is your best option when it comes to any junk or trash that is large, heavy, or complex. Residential homeowners as well as business owners and property managers have found great value in the services provided by Junk King, including our green initiatives, family orientation, community work, and local environmental consciousness. 

 

When you should call for the Bagster Bag: Purchasable at the local home improvement store, the Bagster Bag is your best option when it comes to same-day junk clean-up, which can lead to a longer duration of removal than what the MINI can offer. The Bagster Bag operates best when filled with non-complex, light, household junk, and yard wastes. Additionally, you can find many residential homeowners like to buy it for long-term projects.

 

When you should call for pickup: Depending on the service that you chose to use, your Junk King MINI will already be scheduled for a two-hour window pickup, a few days after it was dropped off. In comparison you’ll have more time available for your Bagster Bag; you can take literally all of the time you need to fill it—since you’ve paid a sunk cost of $30 already. Generally, you’ll want to call for Waste Management when you’ve either filled the Bagster or you are approaching the weight limit of 3,300 pounds. 

 

Conclusion: The Winner!

 

In terms of the debate between Bagster Bag vs the Junk King MINI, the winner is undoubtedly the clients that have access to our services. As mentioned before, each option thrives in a different scenario, while they also fail at different junctions. The Bagster Bag is useful for the artist whereas the Junk King MINI is useful for the construction worker—they are similar products that technically do the same job, but have hugely different approaches and goals for the user end experience.

 

If you’d like to purchase a Waste Management Bagster Bag, you can do so at your local home improvement store or you can order them online for as low as $30. After you fill it, you’ll need to call Waste Management for the removal and pay for any additional fees incurred from weight or complications.

The Problem With Large, Roll Away Dumpsters In Subdivisions

Actually, the real problem is that we throw stuff away.

It’s not really our fault since, as human beings, we produce trash and waste in the process of simply living life. Garbage is a constant of life and humans have been tossing their trash somewhere since prehistoric times. 

Except they didn’t have roll away dumpsters. Which may have been a good thing since there was nothing to get filled up quickly other than their home. Or their community garbage pit. Or whatever hole, body of water, or cave they tossed their garbage into.

However, we have things they did not have – disposable packaging and shopping malls, for example. In other words, in our modern world almost everything we consume comes home with us in some form of packaging. That’s including food and water!

And all this packaging ends up in the trash. Shopping malls and stores in our society contribute to the reality that when something we have is old, worn out, or broken, we can simply replace it. And the old, unwanted thing ends up in the trash. 

For eons people reused and repurposed almost everything since it was rarely, if ever, an option to just go to the market and buy a new one. In other words, old things almost never ended up in the trash.

If you were to look over the statistics of trash and waste management, you would be forgiven for thinking that the planet should be inundated with mounds of trash by now. As one article reports it, “On a worldwide scale, we produce 2.6 trillion pounds of trash per year.”

Fortunately, most trash and junk does tend to decompose and “go away” eventually and some of it is incinerated.

However, if that were not the case, we probably would be navigating trash piles today.

But let’s forget about the world’s population for a moment and just focus on our own neighborhood. According to one source, Atlanta produces an estimated 17.4 million tons of garbage per year. And a large percentage of this is made up of plastic waste.

With a population of almost six million people, that works out to a whopping 19 tons of garbage per person every year!

It’s no wonder those subdivision roll away dumpsters fill up quickly.

So, what happens to all the garbage (that stays in the roll away dumpsters!) that we throw away around North Atlanta, for example?

According to a story at Atlanta magazine,

“All trash collected around the city of Atlanta is taken to a Waste Management transfer station. The company then determines which landfill gets our garbage. Fulton County is home to three landfills—Safeguard (in Fairburn), Southern States (East Point), and Chadwick Road (Roswell)—so maybe it’s one of those.

Recycling materials, after getting dropped at a transfer station off Fulton Industrial Boulevard, have been getting trucked out to the Pratt Recycling Material Recovery Facility in Conyers, a huge place the Atlanta Recycles coalition calls “state-of-the-art,” since late 2017. Those materials are sorted, processed, and then baled by commodity—paper, plastic, cardboard, etc.—and sold to end-market users…”

While that’s all well and good, sometimes there’s simply too much trash for the dumpster space available in many neighborhoods. 

What can you do about that?

 

Another Trash Removal Solution for North Atlanta

No one likes keeping bags of household garbage piling up in the yard or the garage because there’s no room in the bins or dumpsters. At Junk King North Atlanta, we get it. And we also know that sometimes it’s not just the “normal” garbage that piles up. Sometimes we have a project or a family event that produces an excess amount of trash that needs to be removed.

So, what’s a household to do?

You could, perhaps, remove it yourself. But that requires a vehicle large enough to manage the bags or boxes of trash you need to load. Or, worse, it’s not in bags or boxes (think yard waste) and you aren’t about to put that in your car!

Which means you have to have a truck or get one you can use. Then there’s the loading and securing the load. And you have to know where you’re going to take it because, being a good environmental citizen and a law-abiding one at that, you’re not going to take it out to an empty lot or field somewhere to dump it.

So, you have to go to a waste transfer station near you or possibly a landfill. While there are landfills in Hall, Cherokee, and Forsythe Counties, for example, it still may not be all that convenient depending on where you live.

And, assuming you manage to do all this, once you get there you have to unload it. All of which adds up to a great deal of work and trouble just to get some trash or garbage out of your house or your yard.

There’s got to be a better way.

The good news is that, with Junk King North Atlanta, you do have a better solution for your trash removal problem.

Two Trash Removal Alternatives with Junk King North Atlanta

Probably the easiest solution is to simply give us a call, set up a trash or junk pickup appointment, and relax. Our highly trained and courteous junk removal team will show up at your home and you just show us where the trash, garbage, junk, or debris is waiting. 

We do the rest.

You can rest assured that our pricing is upfront and fair. No hidden fees, no undisclosed charges. Best of all, we give you a free, no obligation quote on-site, and we only charge you for the space in our truck that your trash or junk takes up – not by weight or an arbitrary flat fee.

Did we say “two trash removal alternatives?”

Maybe you have a project going on that’s producing trash and debris over a period of a few days and you know the residential roll away dumpster is already full – again. No worries. A quick call to Junk King North Atlanta and we can set you up with one of our user-friendly and driveway-safe rental dumpsters.

With a load capacity of 12-cubic yards, you could fill it with seven or eight washing machine boxes full of trash and still have room to spare! Not that you would do it that way, but it does make for a good mental image for envisioning how much room that is.

 The bottom line in all this is that you no longer need to be captive to the limits of your neighborhood’s roll away trash dumpsters.
