Junk Hauling in Cobb County: How it is Saving the Environment What is Junk Hauling and How is it Aiding the Environment? Junk and junk hauling are as old as property rights themselves—that is, as long as there has been someone to say “that’s mine” there has also been someone else to say “let me move that for you”—or, that’s what the general idea of junk hauling is. However, junk hauling should not be confused with moving crews, because moving crews are meant to specifically move items, not dispose of them like a removal crew. Junk hauling specifically refers to the practice of picking up and moving…well, junk, but also trash, garbage, debris, and everything from furniture to old equipment and everything in between. How does something like junk hauling help the environment? It mostly depends on the type of services that are available for hire from the removal crew. Simply taking your junk to the landfill is obviously not going to result in aiding the environment—however, choosing to move with a professional company that is able to provide aftercare in the form of green initiatives after the removal—will assist in aiding the environment. Over the course of a year, the average person will accumulate at least a thousand pounds worth of junk, trash, and waste. This is not a problem as long as there are people available for assistance in the removal of that junk (or at least the overwhelming packaging that the junk comes in). When it comes time for you to call on junk hauling and removal assistance, call on Junk King first. Junk King was founded in 2005 with two premises that have helped drive the company into an industry leader across North America. The founder wanted to create a junk removal company whose main focus would be twofold: providing an unsurpassed customer experience while also providing an eco-friendlier solution for the large amount of waste that is thrown out every year. Since Junk King opened its doors, they have been awarded distinctions unique only to ourselves—for example, Junk King is known as North America’s greenest junk removal service, and also known as being one of the highest-rated customer experiences.

The Pros of Junk Removal There are many benefits of junk removal, especially when you hire professionals to do the work for you. Not only that, but the benefits also affect those in your local area too. Thankfully, you don’t really need ‘a reason’ to hire professionals—but it is worth noting that people often contact removal companies because of a need for immediate assistance, or physical assistance. The Pros of Junk Removal: The work can be done faster, safer, and better by hiring professionals. Save money by not paying for your own gas or labor costs to your family. Regain the space that you would have otherwise not had—decluttering is a huge motivator once you get started. Reduce your environmental footprint by utilizing the recycling facilities to their fullest. (Junk King recycles at least 60% of every haul that they remove!) Some removal services will also have the option to donate some of your junk to charities—in this way, you could not only protect the local environment, but you can also invest in the local economy. Professionals are also able to remove large-scale or heavy items, saving your back from getting pulled out while also reducing the likelihood of related injuries. Professionals also are equipped and trained to be able to handle both difficult and emergency situations—what would you do if someone fell while inside a dumpster? Some removal companies offer saving events, which can greatly assist in getting your junk taken away without the steep price tags. The process is simple and straightforward, plus you can order assistance right from your phone. The Cons of Junk Removal As with every service available for hire, there are some cons to junk removal, such as the inability of the industry to police what actually happens after your junk is removed. Only some of the removal companies even claim to recycle, so it is a safe bet that non-professional removers could just take your junk straight to the landfill. Additionally, there is not a lot of room for things like full-scale breakdowns of complex items, this means that even if a removal company wanted to create and follow their own green initiatives, they would be limited by the room, the tools, and the time to be able to do that. Luckily, however, there are some removal teams that go the extra mile and tend to things such as the time-consuming breakdowns of complex items like washing machines and refrigerators. The disadvantages of removing waste are common issues that all junk removal companies struggle with—it is difficult to provide answers for all junk hauling problems: The Cons of Removing Waste: Professionals are expensive: The most common issue with professional junk haulers is that they are often more expensive than non-professional options. Professional haulers are more expensive because along with being highly trained and having a lot of specialized tools, they are also insured and bonded—none of which any of the random Craigslist haulers are. Many professionals charge by volume: A significant number of junk haulers charge their removals based on the final volume of the used services. This can mean the volume of a waste bag, a disposal truck, or a roll-away dumpster. Companies who charge by volume are sometimes meant to be avoided as you can quickly incur additional fees when the final costs are calculated. Not all professionals are created equal: Depending on the service available and how it suits your needs, you may find that there is a vast difference between options. For example, while one company may tout its online reviews—another may actually end up being more customer-friendly than them. Thus it can be difficult to find the right option for you, online review sites are the easiest and best way to manage all of your options (and their potential costs). How to Choose a Junk Removal Service for Your Needs There are many things to consider before picking your professional removal service. A lot of services only support one or two options for removing your junk, so picking the right one will make all of the difference to your final experience. We suggest that you start thinking about your options by looking at some reputable review sites like Home Advisor, Angi’s, or Moving.com. For each company that you see, consider the following and how well you know the company’s practices before you schedule a quote. How to choose a company for your needs, consider: If the service takes green initiatives such as aftercare recycling; Junk King was partially founded on the premise that junk removal could be greener—as such, at least 60% of all of the hauls completed by Junk King are recycled, reused, donated, or repurposed. If you are a commercial business owner or a property owner, you should consider if the company’s removal fleet is large enough to accommodate all of your removal needs. Many removal services will be willing to pull in trucks from surrounding locations in order to fulfill a client’s needs. Most removal companies have something special about them—by finding out what that special thing is, you have a far greater chance of getting the exact service that you need for your removal or project. For example, Junk King is known for being green, but we are also known for being very customer-oriented while providing budget-friendly solutions to both residential and commercial owners.
