Make Room For A She Shed In Your Backyard

This posted was updated in June of 2022

There was a time when a backyard shed was just for gardening tools and lawnmower. Today, a she shed is a very popular option. As the title implies, this is a place where the woman of the house can “escape” to. It can be set up as a solitary reading nook, arts and craft center or even an extension of the garden. She sheds have become so popular that they are now being sold as kits on Amazon. If you’re handy with a hammer and screwdriver, you could put your own she shed together in just a few hours. First, you need to clear some space. That is where Junk King Cincinnati will be a big help.

We use tarps to cover items and tie them down to avoid damage during transport. Having your items hauled away by Junk King is like having a friend come to visit. You can talk to them, and they will listen. The Junk King crew will do the cleanup as we go.

We will remove the items you want gone, and take them to our truck. We will use a broom to sweep the area where we’ve been working and a shop vac to clean up the mess.

Spring! Time for a Yard Waste Dumpster Rental in Cincinnati

When we think of spring cleaning, we tend to think mostly of indoor projects. Cleaning out the garage. Decluttering the basement. Going through our closets and pulling out garments we don’t wear anymore. Cleaning up the dust, pet dander, and other debris that has built up on surfaces throughout the winter months. By all means, though, your spring cleaning routine should also include some attention to your yard. A yard waste dumpster rental can make it that much easier to execute springtime cleanup and landscaping projects for your yard.

Your Springtime Yard Cleanup Checklist

yard waste dumpster rentalEven a well-maintained yard can start looking pretty decrepit over the course of the winter. Between cold weather, snow, and melting snow, your yard might look brown, flooded, or generally in ill health. Of course, a lot of these issues will take care of themselves as the spring season moves forward. Your grass will start growing again, the trees will blossom, and the flowers will begin to bloom. In a month or two, your yard will look likely and beautiful again.

With all that said, the fact is that you can do a few things to get your yard back into shape sooner. Your springtime yard cleanup checklist might include steps like:

  • Raking up leaves: If there are trees in your yard, then there are probably still leaves strewn about from last fall. Your yard might also be littered with twigs and branches that broke off the trees under the weight of the snow. Raking up the debris and removing it will clean up your yard for a new season.

  • Prune trees, shrubs, hedges, or other plants: Even the most resilient plants can be damaged by heavy snow and bitter cold. Trimming damaged or dead branches from shrubs, trees, hedges, or other plants can make for a healthier growing season for those plants. In other cases, you might have to prune healthy plants that have become a bit overgrown in the past year. Evergreen trees, especially, tend to need some strategic pruning in the springtime.

 

New Call-to-action

  • Clean other litter out of the yard: Is there other litter that needs to be cleaned up before you can start work on your yard? If you have a dog, you might need to go around the yard cleaning up dog waste. There could also be pieces of garbage that have ended up in your yard some way or another. Collecting this junk should be one of your first steps in the spring.

  • Mow the lawn: Your lawn may or may not be very long at this point, depending on whether you mowed it in the fall and how much snow you had. However, giving the lawn a quick, low-cut mow early in the spring is a good idea. Mowing at this stage can help clean up some of the dead grass on the ground, making way for healthier growth in the months to come. An early spring mow can also help clean up snow mold if you have that issue.

  • Plant and landscape: What does your landscaping plan look like this year? Whether you are planning on building a new garden, planting a few trees, or simply dotting the yard with flowers, you should start the planting process early in the summer. Other landscaping tasks, such as mulching certain parts of the yard, should also happen now. Depending on the extent of your landscaping, you might need to do some extensive digging or sod removal. And don’t forget to shore up the more damaged-looking parts of your lawn with fresh seed!

Making a point of completing these tasks in April or May will ensure a green, glowing yard by June and July. You’ll have to set aside some time to do the work, but you’ll be thankful you did when the time comes for summer grilling or warm weather entertaining.

Make Your Yard Cleanup Easier with a Yard Waste Dumpster Rental

Most of the tasks discussed above result in a considerable amount of waste and debris. Piles or bags of leaves; excess dirt; clumps of discarded sod; sticks or twigs; etc. If you have a big yard, you might have a place near the back of the property where you can build a pile of firewood or start a compost pile. In many places, though—especially suburban areas where homes are close to one another—there might be no yard space to spare. Where do you put all that yard waste from your spring cleanup project?

The solution you need is a yard waste dumpster rental. From leaves and grass clippings to sticks, logs, and stumps, virtually any landscaping waste can go in a yard waste dumpster. You can fill the dumpster as you work, getting yard waste out of the way so you can move on to other parts of the project more quickly. Best of all, when you finish the job, your junk removal company will come and haul the dumpster away. You won’t have to worry about finding a place on your property to pile up yard waste because it will all be gone in just a matter of days.

Finding the Right Dumpster Rental

As you shop for a dumpster rental for yard waste disposal, remember that not all dumpster rental businesses provide this service. Dumpster rentals are often meant more for the interior cleanouts mentioned above, like garages and basements. Some dumpster rental companies don’t offer yard waste or require you to rent a specific type of bin for yard waste.

While no dumpster rental company will let you mix yard waste with standard household junk like electronic waste or old, unwanted childhood toys, some businesses are a bit more flexible than others. For instance, it’s not a bad idea to look for a dumpster rental company that lets you throw shingles, plasterboard, or other outdoor building materials into the yard waste bin. Many homeowners pair landscaping projects with improvements to the outside of their homes. In such cases, it can be nice to have one bin where you can deposit everything.

As for other areas of focus, try to find a dumpster rental company that offers eco-friendly service and fair pricing. Especially for yard waste dumpsters, it’s smart to look for rental companies that price their bins according to the amount of space you use. Many dumpster rental businesses have pricing structures that bill in “flat rates,” based on the size of the dumpster you rent. The problem is that predicting what dumpster size you need is not easy. How many cubic yards of debris are waiting in your yard to be cleaned up? It’s hard to know for sure until you are dumping clubs of dirt, piles or leaves, or pieces of wood into the bin.

Don’t let the unpredictability of your yard waste removal project cost you extra money. You don’t want to rent a yard waste dumpster that is too big, because you’ll end up paying for space you don’t use. Instead, choose a dumpster rental company that bills according to how much dumpster space you actually use. That way, you will be getting your money’s worth without sacrificing quality of service.

the do you really need it checklist

A yard cleanup is a smart step in any spring cleaning project. However, the fact is that most people don’t have the means of hauling yard waste away from their property. Taking bags of unwanted junk from your house and loading them into the trunk of your car is one thing; doing the same with bags of dirty yard waste is another. With a yard waste dumpster rental, you’ll never have to worry about the logistics of a yard cleanup again.

Junk King is committed to increasing sustainability wherever we can. The top-rated customer service offered by Junk King is something we pride ourselves on. Please consider using Junk King for your dumpster rental and junk removal.  1-888-888-JUNK

 

Get Your Backyard Garden Ready for Growing

Despite what the ground hog said, the official start of is just a few weeks away. Soon you’ll be opening the windows, firing up the grill and mowing the lawn. You’ll also want to get your garden ready for growing season. Here is a helpful action plan to make that happen.

carolina-garden-path-1357826-m

Test Your Soil

Watering and sunlight are the easiest part of growing anything. It is getting the soil right that can be a challenge. Start this season with a PH test of your soil. You can pick up a test kit from any nursery or hardware store. The result of those tests will help you decide which nutrients your soil might need.

Edge

Over the winter, your garden plot might have overgrown. Time to break out the edging tool to create those clean lines once again. This is a good job to do know so you won’t have to do later. And if you’re thinking of expanding your garden plot, then you’ll want to edge out the extending area at this time, too.

Mulch

Once you have removed the winter weeds you should lay down some mulch. This will help cool off the roots of the plants. That in turn will mean less water once the growing starts. As the mulch breaks down it will feed the soil. That’s all good.

Stake Plants

You should know in advance what plants or veggies need a little help in the form of stakes. Before you plant, put up those stakes. This will also help you map out the garden and allow you to move things around without stomping on anything that is growing.

Finally, think about your potting area. If you don’t have one, then perhaps you can pull out an old table and put it up against the garage. To make room for your potting zone you might need to clear out some unwanted items like lumber, old patio furniture or even a swing set. All of that can be easily removed with one call to Junk King Cincinnati. They’re always loading up furniture and appliances. Nothing is stopping them from lending you a hand in your backyard for a big cleanup. To get your garden ready for growing, bring in the crew from Junk King Cincinnati and watch how fast things get cleared away.

Amazing Backyard Grilling Tips

Do you agree that food cooking a backyard grill just tastes better? The same amount of prep work that you would use in the kitchen can be applied to grilling outdoors. It’s just a lot more fun on a cool summer evening to sit outside and enjoy your dinner that you’ve just cooked by the table. Even though you’ve been grilling for a long time there is always room for improvement. These are some of their great backyard grilling tips you could put into use this summer:

1280px-Barbecue_2

Gas Or Charcoal

Serious grill masters will debate the merits of gas versus charcoal for hours on end. Propane gas is obviously much cleaner and more efficient in terms of turning on and off the flame. However, cooking with charcoal or certain flavors of wood chips can have a big impact on the taste of your food. If you have a propane grill, then maybe you want to get a small woodchip barbecue to experiment with this summer. Just be extra cautious because you won’t have the same amount of control over the fire as you would with a propane gas burner.

Preheat the Grill

Preheating your grill is going to make all the difference. You should allow at least 15 to 25 minutes of preheat time before you start cooking. Not only will this help you reach the right temperature but it will also kill off any lingering bacteria. At the high end, your grill should get as hot as 450°. For low heat, it should be 300°. You’ll know your grill is properly heated when it sears food on contact. This helps keep the food you’re cooking moist in the inside and prevents it from sticking.

Additive Free Charcoal

If you are going with charcoal for your grilling, then you should look for additive free charcoal. This is actually just charred wood that reignites when lit. Those common briquettes that you have been using might contain a few harmful additives that aren’t going to do the environment or your food any good. Although it is tempting to use lighter fluid to get your fire going, this can also release volatile compounds that can leave an unpleasant residue on your food. Start your fire using kindling instead.

Brush Off the Debris

It is much easier to clean your barbecue grate once the grill is hot. After you’ve preheated and before you put down your food, you should use your wire grill brush to scrape off any charred remains. It also helps to scrape again after you remove the food while the grill is still hot.

If you go out to your barbecue to start the summer and find that it is rusty or too grimy to work with, then you might want to toss it out altogether. You obviously won’t be able to put it into a trashcan. Instead, you can call on Junk King Cincinnati to remove the grill safely and efficiently. Junk King has a lot of experience hauling away all kinds of unwanted yard debris including grills, patio furniture and broken lawnmowers.

Are you ready to elevate your grilling game this summer? You can with these tips.

Important Backyard Trampoline Safety Tips To Follow

A backyard trampoline is a lot like a backyard swimming pool. It’s the kind of “magnet” for kids and a great way to have fun throughout the summer. But just like that swimming pool, you need to make sure everyone who uses the trampoline understands the safety rules. Here are some of the important backyard trampoline safety tips to follow:

trampoline-114587_1280

For Jumping

As tempting as it is, children under five should not go on a trampoline. For those over the age of five, there should only be one person jumping at a time. Anyone who is waiting for their turn can act as a spotter around the edge of the trampoline. Although there is a temptation to get into stunts like somersaults and flips, these should be discouraged. Too much can go wrong when someone doesn’t have the proper training or experience.

When getting off the trampoline you should never “bounce” onto the ground. Everyone needs to stop jumping and carefully walked to the edge and then slide off. Before any jumping session, you want to make sure the trampoline is totally dry. Be on the lookout for wet spots from morning dew.

For Positioning

The best position for a backyard trampoline is in a flat area with no potential hazards surrounding it. Those hazards would be fences, hedges, trees, clothing lines or sheds. Just look at the space and consider the worst-case scenario for someone bouncing off the trampoline.

That trampoline should also be placed on a soft and springy surface like sand, mulch or any other material that would have a cushioning effect. It’s never advised to have a trampoline on concrete driveway.

You should establish a safe fall zone of at least 8 feet around the outside of the trampoline. That means keeping this area clear of toys, patio furniture or gardening tools.

For Added Safety

For added precaution, you can install a safety net around the perimeter of the trampoline. That will keep the jumpers contained within. Safety pads that completely cover the springs are vital. These will help prevent feet and hands from falling in between those springs.

As you get ready to start the summer with your trampoline, you need to give it a thorough inspection. If it appears that some of the springs have rusted or the surface has become to worn, then you should consider replacing the entire unit. Getting rid of an old trampoline is not complicated when you hire a company like Junk King Cincinnati. These are the junk removal experts that will dispatch a team of movers who can quickly dismantle that old trampoline and load it onto their truck for responsible disposal.

Make sure everyone jumping on a trampoline in your backyard plays by the rules.
