Sorting Experience

As you go through your house, you will undoubtedly find many things you want to get rid of. But not all of those things have to end up in a landfill. They won’t when you hire Junk King Chicago for this job. Junk King has partnered with local charities, and they know precisely what those charities are looking for in terms of furniture, clothing, and other household goods. The Junk King crew members have the sorting experience to spot those items and designate them for a charity drop-off. You have to show the Junk King crew everything you want to get rid of, and they will do the rest.

Those charity drop-offs are included in the flat rate you will be charged for the service. That rate is always determined by how everything fits on the back of the Junk King truck.

Have you put a plan into action for a remodeling project? That kind of plan always begins with imagining the possibilities of how you can transform a particular space. Kitchen remodels are always popular, and it is a chance to add in all the features you want to create your ultimate dream kitchen.

After you create all those plans, you will want to hire a contractor to make it happen. That contractor then brings in the crews, purchases materials, and supervises the project from start to finish. That doesn’t mean you can’t stay involved. However, you should pay close attention to ensure all your details are addressed.

You can also support the project by setting up an independent cleaning. That is something that Junk King Chicago can be a big help. By hiring Junk King to keep your remodel site clean, your remodel crew can stay focused on getting the job done.

Demolition Day

The first day of every remodel project is demolition day. This is when everything is torn up and hauled out of the house. All the debris must be cleared because you don’t want to keep it on your property. You can schedule your first session with Junk King on demolition day. Junk King will send over two movers and a big truck. That’s all you need to clear out any amount of remodeling debris.

When the crew shows up, they will assess just how that pile of debris will fit on the back Junk King truck. The less space your debris takes up, the less you will be charged for the service. Junk King will always work with you to ensure you get a great deal.

Replacing refrigerators is something that will happen to every homeowner or apartment renter sooner or later. Like every other type of appliance, a fridge is not meant to last forever.

Did you know that there are millions of old cathode ray tube (CRT) televisions tucked away in basements and spare bedrooms across America? According to a survey conducted by the Electronics Recycling Coordination Clearinghouse (ERCC), in 2015, Americans had around 5 billion pounds worth of CRT TVs in their homes, many of which were either broken, stored away, or otherwise unused. If you are one of the millions of households who still has one of the bulky, box-style TVs in your home, what exactly are you supposed to do with those TVs if you don’t want them taking up space in your attic, basement, garage, or spare bedroom? 

Recycling your old TV is becoming increasingly important due to the fact that every TV contains large amounts of toxic substances such as lead, mercury, beryllium and cadmium. Televisions are a type of electronic waste (e-waste), which is the nation´s fastest growing source of toxic waste polluting out landscapes, soils, and watersheds. Unfortunately, recycling those old TVs can be difficult, even when commodities prices are high.

Fortunately for people who live in the North Chicago area, Junk King of North Chicago makes it easy to recycle your old TVs. We are proud to offer the fastest, most affordable, and greenest junk removal in the region. 

Why You Should Recycle your old TV

As we mentioned in the introduction, TVs and other types of used electronics are one of the most serious and widespread sources of toxic waste in our environment. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reports that e-waste items are responsible for 70 percent of the toxins found in landfills despite providing only 1 percent of their total volume. Due to the fact that around 66 percent of American households report having unwanted televisions stored in their attics, basements, or guest bedrooms, used television sets are one of the main contributors to this e-waste contamination problem. 

One recent report on the dangers of old television sets found that older TV sets that contain bulky and heavy cathode ray tubes (CRTs) contain on average 6 pounds of lead.  In the past, those lead containing tubes could be easily melted down to make new CRT TVs.  Today, however, the vast majority of people are switching to flat screen TV, LED TVs, and smart TVs. Though these types of TVs are significantly more energy efficient, this transition also means that there is no longer a market for recycling old CRT TVs. The resulting lead waste, plus cadmium, mercury, toxic solvents and other chemicals are then often released into the environment when they are sent to the landfill and crushed. 

Lead contamination poses an especially serious threat to both human and ecosystem health. When lead leaches into water sources, it can contribute to several serious health problems, including, negative cardiovascular effects, increased blood pressure and incidence of hypertension, decreased kidney function, and long-term reproductive problems in both men and women. 

Though flat screen TVs, LED monitors, and smart TVs do not contain lead, they do have other chemicals, including hormone disrupters, polyvinyl chloride, brominated flame retardants, neurotoxic mercury, and others. These products also leach toxic chemicals into the surrounding environment when disposed of improperly. 

The Challenges to TV Recycling Today 

As most consumers have largely abandoned CRT sets for LED and plasma televisions, there is today a very limited demand for the lead-filled glass that characterized those old cathode ray tube TVs. Furthermore, low prices for commodities such as gold, copper, and other heavy metals means that many recycling companies do not find it profitable to strip down those old TV sets or even newer flat screen TVs in order to then recycle the raw materials. 

The combination of low demand and low commodity prices has led to an unfortunate increase in illegal dumping practices. In 2015, one supposed recycling company in the state of Kentucky was caught burying hundreds of old TVs and other electronics devices in a 10-foot-deep hole in a field. Because most municipal waste management services will not haul away old TVs, many people resort to simply dumping those used items in abandoned lots or other illegal dumps. This is not only bad news for the environment, but could land you a serious fine if discovered.
