Regardless of the state of any housing market, homes will sell, as will commercial properties. And for the real estate professionals handling the transactions, this involves a wide variety of tasks that must be accomplished.

Unfortunately for them, one of these tasks is often a property cleanout.

And, if you are a real estate agent or Realtor, this is not something you really want to do yourself.

Junk King Atlanta North Does Cleanouts: One Property at a Time

People and businesses are constantly on the move.

In fact, according to REALTOR® Magazine, 

“Homeowners have been less transient the last few years. In the first quarter of 2019, homeowners who sold their homes had owned them an average of 8.05 years, down slightly from a record high of 8.17 in the fourth quarter of 2018, reports real estate research firm ATTOM Data Solutions. Still, that’s up a 7.75 year average recorded a year ago.”

And, when it comes to commercial entities, Urban.org noted that larger establishments are slightly more likely to move than smaller ones, and establishments in professional and scientific services or manufacturing industrial sectors were more likely to move than others.

What this means for real estate professionals such as real estate agents and realtors is a constant flow of empty properties that need to be sold or leased.

And, quite often, it means that property cleanouts are required. 

For a variety of reasons, homes need to be cleaned before they can be shown and marketed. This is true for commercial properties, as well. But the problem that comes up with these vacated properties is that they cannot be leased again until the property is cleaned.

And this often means that there are piles of old furniture, equipment, and other junk that has to be removed in addition to regular cleaning. 

This is vital since every day a home or rental property sits unoccupied and full of junk is another day that goes by without a sale or rent.

Property Cleanouts are Necessary – Doing Them Yourself is Not

Simply put, cleaning out properties isn’t really an easy task, and it requires a number of things.

For example, if there are any large items such as old furniture or office equipment to be hauled out and disposed of, you will need a suitable vehicle to take care of that. Which often means you will need to rent one.

Also, if you plan to do the actual loading and hauling, there are going to be additional expenses for fuel and possibly even tarps and tie-downs to securely cover your loads. 

In addition to all of this, there will be disposal fees and possibly additional fees for certain junk items like old television and refrigerators that have federal, state, or regional disposal rules or restrictions. 

Of course, this all means that you have to do all the heavy lifting and work of removing, hauling, and disposing of any trash, debris, or large junk items. 

Unfortunately, too, this kind of work can end up becoming an all-day project. But, as a real estate professional, this is not the type of work you need to be doing – especially in Atlanta in the winter or late summer!

This is why we strongly recommend Junk King Atlanta North as your best alternative and as your number one choice for reliable, quick, and affordable property cleanouts.

To summarize, here are several good reasons for NOT doing your own property cleanouts:

 You may not own or have access to a truck or van.

• Taking junk to a landfill is difficult and time-consuming.
• You may not have help for moving, loading, and unloading junk.
• You simply don’t have the time, desire, or resources for it.

Besides, even if you can load, haul, and dispose of the junk and debris from your property, you certainly have much more important things to do with your time than doing your own junk hauling work!

Not to worry! Your local Junk King Atlanta North team is here to take care of your property cleanouts for you.

We use a professionally trained, two-person team and a large truck so that we can quickly remove and load up all those bulky junk items from your vacant property. Got a multi-story property? No problem. 

Our Junk King junk removal professionals can haul large items down from upstairs rooms or offices, and they can also haul them up from basements just as easily and safely.

Why is Junk King the Best Atlanta House Cleaning Company? 

Unlike those who choose to do a removal by themselves, those who choose to move with a professional company find the benefits immediately. 

Professional companies are trained to get removals done faster, cheaper, and safer than the average person completing a removal on their own. 

Additionally, choosing to work with Junk King as your house cleaning go-to, will result in money, time, and effort being saved. This is because you can pick and choose the removal option that best fits your needs; and that will ensure that the job gets done.

Some may wonder though, despite the clear benefits of working with a junk removal service Atlanta, why someone might pick them to clean their home, rather than just remove some items.

Many people find that removals are typically only part of the actual service that they need. It’s fine to order a removal and only have the removal portion of the service, but Junk King indulges every removal with an ideal of compassion. 

The compassion that Junk King has for people results in a relentless desire to help. Homeowners and property managers are often surprised by the extra effort that goes into each of our removals—and that’s because they’ve never experienced true customer service before. 

What’s worse, is that some homeowners have entrusted their homes and precious stuff to cleaning agencies, instead of trained professionals. The result of this? 

According to TheLadders, almost 50% of all housekeepers have stolen something from their guest. That means that any house cleaner could take something from their client, including the ones that aren’t “strangers.” 

This statistic helps to shine more light on why people across America, and across Atlanta, are choosing to go with the removal experts in place of the traditional options. 

Working with Junk King ensures that your home is cleaned and protected, faster, cheaper, and better than any other option. 

The Benefits of Hiring Professional Estate Cleanouts

There are huge benefits that come from hiring a professional estate cleanout, instead of doing the work yourself, or relying on an Atlanta home cleaning service. 

Some of the benefits for our estate clean out services can even be directly gleamed from statistics. For example:

• The hourly price for deep cleaning has gone up to $55-$65 an hour. That is literally half of the lowest price for a Junk King service, which includes cleaning and the removal of stuff from your home. 
• Household cleaning products have gone up in demand since the spring of 2020, so some cleaning services are increasing their fees to make up the difference in sourcing materials. Junk King’s fees are clear, with never any hidden fees—you don’t even have to provide your own brooms for our crews. 
• After surveying 100+ commercial companies, researchers found that the cost for cleaning out estates usually sat around $2.00 per foot. That’s between $.30-$.50 more than the Junk King average rate for full-scale removals. 

Additionally, there are many aspects of estate removals that the average person tends to not consider when thinking about picking a cleaning service. For example, a cleaning service will not:

• Remove any items beyond trash or garbage. 
• Participate in after-storm or disaster cleanup. 
• Provide additional services that may assist the client.
• Utilize proper disposal techniques beyond recycling bins. 

Hiring professional cleaning services is a great idea for those people who can afford it or who think that it is worth the costs. However, once individuals do more research on their options, they often find that professional removal teams are also a valid (and often cheaper) solution. 

Junk King professionals can help you get any estate emptied, cleaned, and on its way to wherever you plan to take it. Contact us today, to get a Big Red Truck or a MINI dumpster as early as tomorrow!

How to Prepare Your Home for a Junk King Cleanout

Don’t fall into the common misconception that because a professional service is being called, no preparation needs to take place—since they will presumably take care of everything. House cleaners Atlanta may insist that nothing needs to be prepared, and with their services they will take care of everything. On the contrary, taking the time to prepare some of the areas of your home will leave you with:

• A better idea of what you need help with.
• A better understanding of what you should get rid of or keep.
• Plenty of time for those hard-to-decide choices. 

Junk King suggests that every person who uses a professional removal solution to take the time to prepare the home and themselves for the removal day. Here are some of our most common pieces of advice for how to prepare for a junk removal service:

• Find and secure any important documents or expensive items. 
• Check all complex stuff (i.e., dressers, desks, boxes, etc.) for anything that shouldn’t be there. 
• Consider creating a list for your family members, detailing who might be interested in any of the junk on the estate.
• Always vote to try to find and preserve any photos or memorabilia. Box whatever you find, since light pollution can quickly damage old photos and objects.
• Use a four category approach when working with junk: one category for every item—keep, donate, trash or sell.
• If selling your home or estate, don’t forget to hire an appraiser. Appraisers can also be found for antiques and interesting objects as well. 

Home and business owners can also prepare the property by ensuring that there is a four-foot wide path into and out of all rooms of the estate. This will guarantee that everyone can move and work safely within the property.
