Colorado Leaf Removal

The mere mention of the month October conjures up different images for different people. For the kids, October is all about Halloween. It’s a time to figure out who to dress up as and plot out the best trick-or-treat routes. Lately, the adults have gotten into the spirit of the holiday by decorating their front yards. Seemingly overnight makeshift graveyards pop up in gardens. Bushes and trees become shrouded in cobwebs and all manner of ghoulish figures begin appearing. At least you know those are the houses with the good candy!

October can mean Oktoberfest. Here in Colorado Springs there are several official Oktoberfest celebrations including the big weekend at Security Service Field and other destinations. These parties hold the promise of plenty of beers featuring some of our very own microbreweries. There will also be lots of singing, dancing and knockwurst!

Fall in Colorado Springs is also about arts festivals. These are tied into the harvest season and provide a wonderful opportunity to local artisans to put their crafts on display. If you want to get a jumpstart on your Christmas gift shopping these fairs are the perfect way to go.

Naturally, you can’t escape the simple beauty of the great outdoors. The trees around Colorado Springs crank up the Technicolor and come alive in bold shades of orange, red and brown. Everywhere you look there is a picture perfect postcard moment. However, when you return home for the sightseeing you could be greeted with a not so friendly sight. That would be all the fallen leaves that have accumulated in your yard. It’s time to bust out the rake and this can be quite the chore. The good news is that this fall leaf season you don’t have to do all the work alone. You can hire Junk King to make the leaf removal a breeze.

Way back when we had full reign to burn all the leaves we could rake up. Those days are long gone. Today, burning leaves could get you slapped with a fine. And you certainly don’t want to be responsible for a fire spreading from your burning leaves! That’s why the only smart choice is to get rid of the leaves the save way by having them hauled off by a Junk King Colorado Springs crew.

Along with the leaves and other yard waste, Junk King can also remove any bulky item you want to get rid of. Why not take full advantage and go through your garage, basement, closet and attic. Think of this as a “clean sweep.” You’ll be getting rid of leaves and junk all within less time than it would take you to actually rake all those leaves! Once the job is done, you’ll have plenty of the weekend left over to enjoy Colorado Springs.

Colorado Springs Green Junk Removal

By population standards, Colorado Springs is considered by many to be a big, little town. The current population figures put the total number of residents at around 380,000. That doesn’t include the many visitors that stream through this idyllic place every day. Here’s another fact to consider: it is estimated that every day, each person generates around 4 pounds of garbage. If you multiply that by the 380,000 residents that means there is around 1.5 million pounds of garbage piling up in Colorado Springs each and every day. Fortunately, we aren’t subjected to see that garbage, but it’s still there just simmering below the surface. That’s why is always important to consider green options when it comes to garbage and junk removal.

As anyone who is down with the program will tell you, recycling is easy once you get a hang of it. We can separate our plastics, metals, glass and paper inside our home with little effort. But what about those big ticket items that could be recycled as well? Things like broken kitchen appliances, auto parts and furniture can all be broken down to their core elements and recycled. The key is finding the right Colorado Springs green junk removal service – Junk King.

Once your recycled junk leaves your Colorado home, it needs to be taken to the right facility. There are recycling centers scattered all throughout the Colorado Springs area; each one with a specific purpose. The paper place can’t take metal from your kitchen appliances or the stuffing from your mattresses. That’s why you need to have a professional team of junk haulers like Junk King to handle the removal. They’ll know just where to take your junk and what can be recycled.

Going green isn’t just for the junk in your home. Surely, you’ve got plenty of refuse piled around your business which could be hauled away and recycled. Once again, the paper part is easy. Even if you want to get all those boxes of needless files taken away hiring a professional team of junk haulers can get the job done in the least amount of time. But there might be other bigger items like chairs, desks, tables and even old equipment that should be taken away. E-waste is a completely separate category when it comes to recycling. And yes, there is a specifically designated e-waste drop off center in Colorado Springs. Do you know where they are? You don’t have to know if you’re hiring Junk King Colorado Springs.

There is a great sense of accomplishment that comes with every item that can be recycled, repurposed and reused. When you add it all up, these are demonstrable contributions to helping reduce the amount of garbage that ends up in our Colorado landfills. None of us want to spoil the natural beauty that surrounds Colorado Springs. That’s why whenever you have the chance to go green, whether that’s in your home or business, you should take full advantage of that.

Colorado Junk Recycling

It all started with one tire.  Now the Midway, Colorado tire dump is home to over 30 million discarded tires. That is around 7.5 million cars worth of tires. If left to rot, those tires can cause a lot of trouble for the surrounding area. And one lightning strike could set the mound ablaze which can pour noxious fumes into the atmosphere. Luckily there is solution underway.

A Colorado recycling company has taken over ownership of the tires and plans to recycle them to a plant in Pueblo which will use them for an alternative form of fuel. It’s win/win all around. Most Colorado junk recycling doesn’t happen on such a massive scale. However, you can reduce your own carbon footprint by hiring a local company that specializes in junk removal and recycling.

As any green advocate knows, there are the three “R’s” of recycling: recycle, re-purpose and reuse. What does that mean for your old junk? When you hire a Colorado junk recycling crew, they will come by your home to pick up all your discarded garbage. We’re not talking about the weekly trash pick-up but about those bigger items you’ve have scattered around the house and backyard. Things like broken kitchen appliances, auto parts that will never make it back into a car and discarded building scraps. Then there are all the old mattresses, sofas and chairs which have seen better days and now need to go away.  A professional Colorado junk recycling team can have all of those items gone in a matter of minutes.

This is when the re-purpose phase kicks into gear. No matter what type of junk you are recycling, there is probably more than one component that needs to be broken down and separated. The sofa is made of cloth, foam, wood and metal. That’s four different re-purposing piles. Do you know where all the various recycling plants are located in Colorado? You don’t have to know when you hire an experienced junk hauling company.

For the reuse part of the three “R’s” all those different elements are sorted and delivered to the manufacturers who turn them into fresh products. You’ve seen shopping bags or greeting cards with the “made from recycled”  materials on them? Paper is actually the easiest item to recycle. It’s merely a matter of grinding it into pulp, washing it down then reconstituting it into fresh reams.

What’s great about hiring a junk hauling company that recycles is that the most effort you have to exert is dialing them on the phone. Junk professionals will come out to your place and assess the volume of material you want hauled away and recycled. You’ll then schedule an appointment for the haulers to come and take away all your junk. This crew should be licensed and bonded because you don’t want to let just anyone into your home. Then all you have to do is point to the junk you want taken away. That’s even less effort then making the phone call! The best way to keep Colorado clean is to recycle. Take a survey of your home today and see what you can recycle, repurpose and reuse.
