Commercial Junk Removal

Junk King Chicago West Suburbs is a full-service junk removal service that helps both residential and commercial clients. Because many waste management services and municipal pickups will not handle extremely large items or certain electronics, Junk King Chicago West Suburbs has become a trusted resource for homeowners and business owners in the Chicago Suburbs, particularly DuPage County.

Chicago is home to three dozen and counting Fortune 500 companies and hundreds of thousands of small businesses. Many of these companies and small businesses have moved, or are moving, out to the West Suburbs to get more space and more freedom.

Moving or relocating a business or shoring up space for the next tenant opens up a lot of doors. When it comes to cleaning out your property, the crew at Junk King Chicago West Suburbs can assist in a number of ways:

• Office Cleanouts
  Once you’ve decided that you’d like to get rid of your current office furniture, perhaps give it an update, then there’s still the issue of how to get rid of it all prior to donating or selling all of it. Whether you’re looking to donate, sell, or simply responsibly dispose of old office furniture, you can count on the crew at Junk King Chicago West Suburbs to do all of the heavy lifting.
• Commercial scrap pickup
  Commercial trash bins are only so big, and many of these larger items (e.g., printer copiers or freezers) can contain a lot of usable scrap metal. Larger office equipment and appliances are often melted down and repurposed into new items; sometimes there can be as few as 60 days between the time a scrap metal, such as aluminum, arrives at the recycling center to its getting melted down and put back on the, say, grocery store shelf as another product.
  • Aluminum
  • Iron
  • Steel
  • Copper
  • Aluminum
  • Brass

  These and other metals can be recycled. “Regular garbage often won’t take these items because of the cost,” says Junk King Chicago West Suburbs owner, Matt Schmit. “We take it to a place that recycles it properly.” That goes for beams, wires, and other construction debris metal that might be associated with demolition debris, remodeling debris, or new construction debris. Junk King Chicago West Suburbs can help in a B2B capacity in all of these areas.

• Storage Facility Cleanout
  There are over 50,000 self-storage facilities in the United States, and each of these facilities has on average over 500 units apiece. There is a huge demand for a junk removal service to come in and clean out units and haul away all of the junk left behind by older tenants. As a full-service junk removal service, Junk King can assist businesses with storage facility cleanouts and warehouse cleanouts.
• Property Management Cleanouts
  Junk King Chicago West Suburbs owner, Matt Schmit, now handles literally hundreds of junk hauls per month. If you have a commercial property that is vacated and in need of a full or partial cleanout, then call on Junk King to shore up the space and get the property ready for leasing to another tenant.

  A property is only worth something to a potential tenant if it is cleaned out and ready for leasing. Every day or every month that a property stays vacant, property managers and real estate agents are missing out on those opportunities to rent and lease. Junk King can assist realtors and other real estate professionals bring a property closer to a ‘showing’ condition by cleaning out the junk left behind by a previous tenant or junk left behind because of a recent foreclosure.

• And much more!

There’s a pretty good chance that your municipal trash pickup or even the dumpster outside of your workplace will not ‘work’ when it comes to getting rid of large office equipment. A few dozen desks, huge wall organizers, or an army of filing cabinets will simply not fit into a single dumpster, but Junk King can help.

Handling commercial junk removal ‘in house’ can seem like a good idea initially, until you realize that your employees are being taken away from the jobs which they were hired to do. Only Junk King has the special equipment and ‘big red’ trucks to get the job done efficiently and safely – the entire Junk King Chicago West Suburbs crew is bonded and insured to give you ultimate peace of mind.
