Not many cities can boast that a river runs through them. But in Columbus, Ohio the Scioto River courses it way through the downtown area. There are plenty of charming cafes and restaurants along the river and just as many folks who enjoy the river for boating, fishing, and swimming. And don’t forget about all the fish and fowl who also share the tributary. Sadly, there are some other items that make their way along the currents of the Scioto that aren’t as welcomed. This is all the trash that is dumped along the banks and directly into the water.
Thankfully, there are crews of dedicated volunteers who willingly give up their time to keep the river clean by picking up tons of trash. Imagine the effort it takes to load up a truck or SUV with junk, drive to a secluded spot along the river and dump the garbage. There is a better way to handle your junk and it just takes a little organizing and a little effort. Before you do anything rash, consider Junk King. Junk King offers the best Columbus junk pickup services available.
The key to getting rid of your junk is recognizing that it is junk. You can start with a simple proclamation, “I’m a hoarder” and go from there! There was a reason why these items were brought into your home. They once served a purpose but because of over use or under use, they no longer serve a purpose. It’s time that the junk moves on!
Often folks hang onto their junk because it’s easier than sorting through it and tossing it aside. One possibility is to set up a good old fashion yard sale. Wait for a sunny weekend and get some help from the family or friends to pull all the items out on the front yard or driveway. You can post a couple of simple signs at the end of your block to attract customers. If you’re feeling really adventurous, you might also invite a couple of neighbors to join you in your garage sale day. Don’t worry about setting a price for all your items. The best approach is with the “make me an offer” attitude. Yes, you won’t be getting what you originally paid for the item but you will be getting rid of it and isn’t that worth a lot? The more the merrier and the greater the chance you’ll attract even more potential buyers.
The goal would be to end your yard sale day with an empty yard and a pocket full of cash. But there are always some leftover items. Embrace the idea that if you were willing to sell these items then you were willing to get rid of them. You can follow through with that by setting up an appointment with some professional junk haulers on the Monday after your yard sale. They can show up early in the morning and get rid of everything you couldn’t sell. The other option would be renting a dumpster that needs to be picked up and dropped off but that’s a lot to inflict on your neighbors.
