Why Hauling Away Junk is a Must-Do This Spring!

Junk Removal Dallas mid cities

Why Hauling Away Junk is Important with the Spring Season Coming Up

Junk removal services are some of the most heavily relied-on services ordered in the Fall and Spring. Now is the perfect time to schedule a transitional-season cleanout of your home and properties. Trash removal services ordered in the Fall and Spring are easier for our professionals and on our expensive equipment. Still, it is also easier for the property owner—there’s less likelihood of an accident, and professionals can streamline the process. 

 

Usually, the choice to call on a haul away junk service is made because the removal is particularly hard or complex (i.e., heavy items, hazardous conditions, or business needs). In reality, it’s best to call on professionals like Junk King at least twice a year for residential properties and quarterly for commercial properties. 

 

Junk King is North America’s greenest junk removal solution; our teams use green disposal methods for over 60% of loads hauled. Not only that, but Junk King also offers two distinct types of services created to give the property owner a choice that will fit their needs. Providing this ability to choose between services is only one of the ways we set ourselves apart from others. 

 

Junk King was founded in 2005 to give everyone a chance to experience: responsible professional removal, fully trained, insured and bonded. A removal completed with environmentally-friendly ideals, like recycling, reusing, or selling. Done with top-rated customer service; and available for all types of junk and trash. 

 

Getting professional assistance is particularly important in the Spring and Fall. Property owners of all kinds are subject to the will of weather and all that can come from it. Things like damaged junk and tools need to be properly disposed of or pose a threat to others. Yard debris and materials can create dangerous conditions if they hide or obscure threats. Even rotting lumber can be problematic since it poses a fire threat in the summer heat.

The Truth Behind Common Myths About Hauling Away Junk 

 

Myth: We Don’t Need Junk Haulers—We’ll DIY and Sell Everything Instead!

There is a time and place for do-it-yourself (DIY) projects; unfortunately, junk hauling and disposal are not the time or place. This is true for two reasons: 

 

  • It will cost more overall to DIY: property owners are attracted to the DIY scene for many reasons. Someone is most likely to approach it because it “saves money.” This is a typical response from people looking to build wooden pallet furniture or pour concrete molds for tiles. In reality, however, choosing to DIY will end up costing more over the long term through unforeseen costs (i.e., bug or mold infestations, hardware, tools, or medical expenses) and residential violation fees (i.e., DIY projects done without permits, licenses, or City permission). 
  • It almost guarantees the items won’t be properly disposed of in the long term: your style is something unique to you; it’s a mixture of experience and perspective with which others will agree or not. Choosing to DIY an item and embracing the weirdness in yourself will almost guarantee the item is improperly disposed of later. This isn’t because you’ve chosen to paint a hutch black—but rather, it’s due to its “reusing” aspect. A DIY item will live its life over twice, maybe three times, but in the end, it will always be considered “second-hand junk,” and this can erroneously result in landfill disposal.

Myth: Professional Haulers are Only for Extreme Cases—I Don’t Need Help!

One of the most vital hauling away junk truths everyone should know—is that professional help isn’t only for extreme situations like hoarding or natural disasters. Home and business owners benefit dramatically from getting assistance, whether the removal includes complex elements like equipment or sensitive elements like items in an estate cleanout. Hauling away junk can be easy for those who choose to move with a professional team. 

 

At Junk King Dallas-Mid-Cities, junk hauling is fun, but we also know how to do it safely, quickly, and responsibly. Some junk can be dangerous, particularly after a storm—where toxic materials have a chance to interact. This isn’t the only part of junk hauling that can be hazardous either: those who are sick, medicated, disabled, or elderly will likely have problems removing junk. 

 

Why You Should Hire Junk King for Your Trash or Hauling Needs

Professional removal companies have elements designed to assist in every situation. When you choose to move with Junk King Dallas-Mid-Cities, you get assistance with every removal step—and that goes for residential and business owners. Trashers and haulers do more than haul away junk; they dispose of it and offer some of the best services in the industry: 

 

Junk King offers superior customer service; friendly, courteous, and compassionate, our customer representatives and professional teams give every client excellent service and direct attention. Junk King has thousands of online reviews—many of them due to our above-bar customer service. 

 

Junk King has the professional tools, training, and experience to make every junk removal and trash disposal easy, efficient, and safe. Our professional aspects are important because not all junk can be picked up and thrown off the balcony—and even if it could, you’d likely throw your back out in the process. 

 

Junk King is committed to green disposal in every haul our teams make. More than 60% of everything we haul is recycled, reused, or donated—and some locations can recycle at even higher percentage rates. Junk King was founded on two ideals: high-quality customer service and eco-friendly disposal. 

 

Junk King services come in two types, each designed to combat particular needs in a removal: 

 

  • Junk King’s full-service option consists of a two-person removal crew and a Junk King Big Red Truck. Our Big Red Trucks can haul over six tons of junk and trash—plus, our removers are professionals. They can break down and remove just about anything from a property. 
  • Our self-service option consists of our dumpster rental, called a Junk King MINI. MINIs have an interior capacity of 12-cubic yards or three tons of weight. Dumping your junk is a more private process with the MINI since there are no strangers are entering the property.

Junk King’s Top 5 Tips for Hassle-Free Trash Removal

No junk removal is the same—but many are similar. Here are some of our golden rules for everyone receiving hassle-free trash removal

 

1. Leave Heavy or Complex Stuff to Us

Much like how families clean up before the housekeeper arrives, many people tend to remove items partially before our arrival. Don’t feel pressure to move things into an easier removal location; this is sometimes impossible since equipment and other items are usually bolted to the floor. Only the professionals have the tools and the experience to get the removal done properly, will minimal stress, damage, and injury. 

 

2. Remove Items from Inside Others

Those looking to get dressers, credenzas, storage furniture (i.e., benches, ottomans, bookshelves, cabinets, etc.), or desks removed—should take the extra time to ensure that everything is removed before we arrive. We suggest taking the time to do this before our arrival because doing it while there may result in stress or anxiety about time. 

 

3. Sort Items into Piles Before We Come

We suggest preparing ‘piles’ of junk before we arrive. Sorting before we get there does two things to help you: (1) it ensures that your removal time is spent removing things from your property, and (2) it prepares you to make the harder choices in private. That saves you anxiety, stress, and incorrectly applied embarrassment. 

 

4. Make Room for Our Big Red Truck or MINI

Our Big Red Trucks and MINI dumpsters are rather large—bigger than most cars on the road. That means you’ll need to ensure space for our big containers. MINI dumpsters are small enough to fit in a residential driveway, but some HOAs may consider this a violation of terms. At the same time, our Big Red Truck can park on the street, but if it’s in a neighborhood with restrictions, we may need to procure a permit. 

 

5. Contact Junk King Dallas-Mid-Cities

Your best option for hassle-free trash removal will always be Junk King. Haul away junk for less cost, more space, and better services.

Top 3 Reasons why Junk King is the Best Bet for Shed Removal in the Dallas Mid Cities Region

 

shed removal

 

For homeowners across the Dallas Mid Cities region, constantly looking at storage boxes placed in your closet, in your attic, or in a spare bedroom can grow tiresome. If you don’t want to spend extra money renting a storage unit across town, however, what else are you supposed to do with those holiday ornaments, old textbooks from college, and other miscellaneous items that you can´t bring yourself to throw away? 

 

For many people, investing in an outdoor storage shed offers a simple and straightforward way to improve the amount of storage space while simultaneously freeing up space in your home. It shouldn’t come as a surprise, then, that the global outdoor shed market is expected to grow from US $6,590.60 million in 2021 to US $9,615.28 million by 2028. 

 

Furthermore, with the rising prices of property values across the Dallas and North Texas region, many people are purchasing smaller homes and subsequently searching for different ways to supplement that available space with alternative storage solutions. Again, outdoor sheds offer a relatively affordable storage alternative for both homeowners, business owners, and others. 

 

Unfortunately, even the highest quality outdoor sheds tend to decay and deteriorate significantly faster than your regular place of residence. Because storage sheds are generally not heated or air conditioned and do not sit on a solid foundation, the structural integrity of the shed can be compromised as it is exposed to the elements. 

 

When an outdoor shed does begin to decay beyond the point of repair, many homeowners quickly purchase a replacement shed to protect their boats, bikes, camping equipment, exercise/gardening equipment, and other items stored in those sheds. That old shed, however, often remains as an eyesore on your otherwise beautiful property. Due to its size, weight, and bulky nature, getting rid of an old outdoor shed can be tricky. Fortunately for homeowners, business owners, and other residents of the Dallas Mid Cities region, Junk King of Dallas Mid Cities makes shed removal smooth, efficient, and as painless as possible. Below, we offer three reasons why Junk King is your best bet for shed removal in the Dallas region. 

 

 

Reason #1: We Can Help with the Dirty Work of Dismantling your Shed 

 

Though some outdoor sheds may look rather flimsy and fragile, taking apart a shed will generally require a free weekend, a strong back, and the use of a few necessary power tools. Outdoor sheds usually have several different brackets and braces holding the entire structure together. Taking apart the roof, the roof trusses, the walls, and the flooring is quite a task, and if you don’t have experience in construction or demolition, you may find that dismantling a shed is beyond your scope of expertise. 

 

Even if you are able to take apart your shed, you then have to figure out how to get the resulting debris taken off your property. If you are planning on using the public waste management company, you may find that the regular garbage truck is simply unable to haul away your debris, or will require you to schedule a bulky item pickup several weeks in advance. 

 

When you hire Junk King of Dallas Mid Cities for your shed removal needs, our junk removal teams have years of experience in safely and effectively dismantling sheds. Simply let us know where the shed is located, and we will do the rest. Once the shed has been safely taken apart, we will also do all the heavy lifting and hauling to get the debris into our truck and off your property. 

 

 

Reason #2: Junk King Makes Every Effort to Recycle or Donate Parts of your Used Shed 

 

Another reason to hire Junk King for your shed removal needs is because we can help reduce your waste footprint. Instead of simply demolishing your old shed and taking the debris straight to the local landfill, our junk removal teams will evaluate the shed and determine if any of the parts can be donated to local thrift stores or charities. If the shed is still in decent condition, we may be able to carefully dismantle the shed and send the metal roofing sheets, the windows, the doors, and pieces of lumber to places where those items can be used. 

 

In cases where the shed is significantly damaged, we also work with several recycling companies in the region in order to keep your old shed out of the landfill. 

 

Junk King of the Dallas Mid Cities area is not only the top-rated junk removal company, but we are also the greenest one. Our junk removal services can help individuals, homeowners, businesses, and even large industries find an environmentally friendly solution for their old, outdoor sheds and every other type of junk you may have accumulating in your home or business. Whereas many junk removal services will simply pick up your trash and drive it to the nearest landfill, we are 100 percent committed to making the effort to finding a “second life” for the items we pick up. 

 

Our team of junk removal professionals has strong relationships with local recycling operations, donation centers, and several nonprofit organizations. We are thus able to make every effort to either recycle, repurpose, or donate the items that we collect. In fact, we either recycle, donate, or otherwise repurpose at least 60 percent of the junk items we pick up. 

 

Reason #3: We can also Help You Get Rid of Other Junk items in the Same Trip 

 

Lastly, when you hire Junk King for a shed removal service, you can also take advantage of the moment to get rid of other junk items you may have laying around your home or yard. Perhaps many of the items stored in your shed are essentially useless junk items that you haven’t touched in years, or maybe you have a used refrigerator in your basement that is simply taking up space. 

 

We provide the absolute best junk removal services to the entire Dallas Mid Cities area, including the towns of Addison, Bedford, Carrollton, Cedar Hill, Colleyville, Coppell, Dallas, Desoto, Duncanville, Euless, Flower Mound, Fort Worth, Grand Prairie, Grapevine, Irving, Keller, Lancaster, and Lewisville. We are proud to be able to offer the most efficient and environmentally friendly way to get rid of virtually any type of trash that you have laying around your home or business, including: 

 

  • Yard debris 
  • Construction debris 
  • Old and used furniture 
  • Used and broken appliances
  • Old hot tubs 
  • Mattresses 
  • Old refrigerators and freezers 
  • Used electronics and other sources of e-waste
  • And more! 

 

 

Whether you have an old shed that has become an eyesore in your backyard, or you urgently need to free up space in your home or garage, Junk King is here to help you efficiently get rid of that junk as quickly as possible. Give us a call at 1-888-888-JUNK, text a photo to 1-737-888-5865, or book an appointment online to save $20 on orders totaling more than $99. Junk King continues to offer free, on-site written estimates, which is still the best way for us to give you our lowest pricing possible. 

 

Bagster vs. Junk Removal Service in Flower Mound

 

Bagster vs Junk Removal

 

Did you know that according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the waste management and junk removal sector brings in over $10 billion annually in the United States alone, with a market value of over $1 trillion worldwide? As the junk removal industry continues to grow, one of the upsides is that homeowners, individuals, and businesses have a wider variety of options when it comes to getting rid of the junk and waste piling up around your place of residence. 

 

Here in the Flower Mound region, the Bagster option offered by the company Waste Management has been an alternative that many people have considered. At the same time, private junk haulers like Junk King have also been offering our leading junk removal and dumpster services to residents of the Dallas area for several years. So how do you determine which junk removal alternative is best for you? 

 

Of course, every junk removal need is going to be different, and will depend on factors such as what you need hauled away, where you live, how much effort you want to put into your junk removal, and your budget constraints. With that being said, below, we briefly compare the junk hauling services offered by Junk King of Flower Mound to the Bagster option.

What is Bagster? 

 

Before we jump into the comparison, let´s briefly outline how Bagster works. Bagster is a do-it-yourself (DIY) alternative to traditional trash bags and bulky junk item pickup provided by the company Waste Management. Essentially, Bagster is like having a three cubic yard mini-dumpster places on your yard or driveway, though that dumpster takes the form of a large polypropylene bag that you purchase at Home Depot or other home improvement stores for $30. 

 

Once you have purchased the bag, you store it in your garage until you are ready to use it. When you are ready to get rid of certain types of junk, you will have to take the bag out to the curb or the end of your driveway, and fill the bag with the junk or debris items you want removed from your property. You then schedule a pickup, and the waste hauler comes and hauls away your bag with its mechanical lift. 

 

Comparing Bagster and Junk King for Different Types of Junk Removal Needs 

 

Junk removal

 

One of the apparent advantages of using a service like Bagster is it gives you a large space where you can store large amounts of trash. For example, if you are needing to clean up debris, yard waste, or other types of bulky junk items piling up around your home, trying to fit everything into plastic bags is going to be frustrating, to say the least. Bagster claims to make debris removal simple by offering affordable alternatives to traditional trash bags. Though most cities offer curbside pick-up programs for bulky or excess junk items, you will most likely be looking at high rates for even small items.

 

But what about private junk haulers like Junk King? How does Junk King compare to Bagster for different types of junk removal needs? 

 

Yard Waste and Debris? 

 

If you plan to use Bagster for hauling yard waste and debris, the first thing you will need to take into considerations is that yard waste is not accepted in Bagster bags in many locations across the country. You will need to call Waste Management to ensure that yard waste can be picked up. Secondly, you will also have to haul all of the yard debris items out to the end of the driveway. The company requires that the bag be placed within 16 feet of the curb so the waste hauler can reach the bag with its mechanical lift. 

 

If you have lots of yard waste in your backyard, you will most likely be looking at several hours of work to haul that debris out to the end of the driveway where your Bagster needs to be placed. Furthermore, for stone, concrete, or dirt, you can fill only 1/3rd of the bag, otherwise it will not be taken away. Also, all of the tree limbs and other pieces of yard waste will need to be trimmed down to a maximum of four feet in length.

 

With Junk King, on the other hand, there are no limits on what we can help you haul away. Furthermore for a slightly higher fee, we can also do all of the heavy lifting and hauling for you. Of course, you also won´t have to be for a huge polypropylene bag that you only plan to use once. 

 

Appliance Removal 

 

It is also important to know that you will not be able to place old or broken appliances into your Bagster bag. Bagster´s website specifically mentions that they will not accept appliances, electronics, most types of light bulbs, and other sources of electronic waste. If you do place these items in the bag, chances are that your Bagster and its contents will not be hauled away. 

 

With Junk King, on the other hand, we can help you get rid of all different types of used appliances and electronics. Heavy refrigerators, broken down stereos, and every other type of e-waste item can be hauled away by our Junk King trucks. We also are one of the few junk removal companies in the area who have a specific commitment to recycling all of the e-waste items we pick up. If we can´t donate your used appliances, we will work with local recyclers to ensure that your e-waste items stay out of our local landfills where they may end up contaminating local watersheds. 

 

Construction and Demolition Debris

 

When building a home or doing major renovations to your house or landscape, you almost always end up with a huge amount of leftover junk. Though you could use a Bagster for your construction debris, chances are that the three cubic meters is simply not going to offer enough space. If you need to get rid of heavy items like bricks, stones, dirt, etc., Bagster even further limits the amount of junk you can place in the bag. 

 

With Junk King, on the other hand, you can easily rent one of our 12 cubic meter MINI dumpsters. These dumpsters come with specialized, graphite wheels that will not harm your driveway, and they offer more than enough space to hold all of your construction and demolition debris. 

 

New call-to-action

 

Junk King vs. Bagster: Cost Comparison

 

Though Bagster claims to be the most economical way to do DIY junk removal, it often ends up being significantly more expensive than private junk removal services such as those offered by Junk King. The Bagster costs $30 for the bag, and on top of that you will have to pay another $79 to $249 for the pick-up (average $140) for the hauling. That comes to $60 per cubic yard, and you pay the whole $180 whether the bag is full or not.

 

With Junk King´s junk removal service, you only pay for the amount of volume your junk takes up in our trucks. If you are looking for the cheapest possible junk removal option, you could also “pre-stage” your junk by taking it out to the curb.  Our pre-staged rate for the Bagster’s 3-cubic yard volume of construction debris is $90, which is about half the cost of a Bagster.

 

When it comes to our MINI dumpster rentals, the average cost is $298 for the dumpster and includes the first ton, which is the normal weight for 12 cubic yards of construction debris. To get the same volume with Bagster, you would pay up to $685.  Again, our solution is more flexible and costs about half the cost of the Bagster solution.

Real estate junk removal

Real Estate Junk Removal in Coppell, TX

 

For realtors in Coppell, Texas and the surrounding Fort Worth area, selling a home as quickly as possible is most likely at the top of your list of priorities. We are fortunate enough to live in one of the fastest growing cities in the United States. The massive growth of Coppell and the wider Fort Worth metropolitan region has fortunately contributed to a booming real estate market. According to Realtor.com, the average home sale price in Coppell is well over half a million dollars! 

 

Given these favorable market conditions, it is important to move properties as quickly as possible. As any realtor knows, however, staging and presenting a home is an extremely important part of the process of selling a home quickly and at the price the home seller has set. In order to be able to expedite the home selling process, hiring a professional junk removal company can help real estate agents and their clients clean up their home and surrounding property in the quickest possible fashion.

Why Real Estate Agents Need Real Estate Junk Removal in Coppell

 

When a homeowner has decided that it has come time to sell their house and they reach out to a real estate agent, making sure the home is “presentable” is perhaps the most important consideration. Old, broken-down, and outdated furniture sitting around your living room will most likely reduce the likelihood of converting a potential buyer into a sale. Similarly, shabby carpeting, dilapidated appliances and electronics, and other ragged and tattered elements around the home will make a negative impression on any potential buyers. 

 

Furthermore, old swing sets and playgrounds that are no longer used, patio furniture that has fallen into disrepair, raised garden beds that are overrun with weeds, and other similar elements around your yard may also drive away potential buyers before they ever set foot inside the home. 

 

Even if the homeowner is still living in the home throughout the sale process, getting rid of those old and worn items in order to present the home as an open, clean and unspoiled space will allow potential buyers to better imagine the home as their own. 

 

Though the real estate agent or the homeowner could haul all of those old, broken-down junk items out to the curb, it may very well be sitting there for several weeks while you schedule a bulk-item pickup from the local garbage company. Besides risking a fine, this will also cause a negative impression on people who are home hunting. Not many people will be interested in touring a home for sale when the first thing they encounter is a pile of trash in the driveway. 

 

To help expedite the process of junk removal in a home that is about to be listed for sale, a professional junk removal company makes it fast and easy to get rid of all the old junk items that are taking up space around the property. 

 

For real estate agents and others involved in the real estate market in Coppell, Junk King Dallas Mid Cities is proud to be the top-rated junk removal company in the region. When you hire us for any real estate junk removal in Coppell, our junk haulers will do all the heavy lifting and hauling. We don’t ask any of our residential or commercial clients to lug their heavy junk items out to the garage, driveway, or curb of the property. Rather, we will gladly do all of the heavy duty work that is necessary to remove the items from anywhere on the property. This will essentially give real estate companies and homeowners a “clean slate” to properly prepare and stage the home for showing.

How Does Trash Pickup Work in Irving, Texas?

 

Junk King Irving

 

Like most communities, Irving offers free, regular trash collection twice a week. To have your trash picked up, just make sure it’s out by the curb by 7 am, but no earlier than 6 pm the previous day. The specific trash pickup days vary depending on where you live, so getting in touch with the city is the best way to find out which day you should leave out your refuse. If you’d rather skip the phone call with the government, of course, you can always just ask your new neighbors.

 

There are a few rules you’ll have to follow when leaving your trash out at the curb. First, everything has to be in a bag – no dumping loose garbage out on the street. The bags have to be between 13 and 30 gallons, and they can be any color other than blue or red. Recycling and cardboard go in transparent blue bags.

 

Large items, like furniture, appliances, or brush from your yard can only be picked up on special recycling or brush days. If you’d rather not wait that long, of course, Junk King will happily haul away any furniture, broken appliances, or yard waste. In fact, we’ll take pretty much anything except toxic waste.

What About Trash Overflow?

Regular trash pickup is nice, but sometimes during spring cleaning or home projects, you’ll end up with a ton of extra garbage or junk. If you find yourself with an excess of trash and you’d rather not leave it in your garage until pickup day, then Junk King Dallas Mid-Cities is the solution for you. At Junk King, our goal is to have your hauling project done within 24 hours of your first phone call, so you don’t have to leave your junk just sitting around for days until we reach you. All you have to do is give us a call, pick a day and time, and give us an idea of how much trash you need us to haul away.

 

Our pricing setup is pretty straightforward, so you don’t have to worry about being charged extra for a huge project. Even if your junk requires multiple teams, you’ll still only pay for the amount of space your trash takes up in our truck – it’s that simple. That also means you don’t have to worry about paying a ton of money for a small amount of trash.

 

Our trained professionals will also do all the work for you, so you don’t even have to pull stuff out into the lawn. Just point to anything you need to have hauled away and we’ll do it for you! That goes for trash bags, boxes, furniture, appliances, mattresses, yard waste, or even electronic waste like TVs or computer monitors. As long as it’s not toxic or radioactive, we’ll haul it away.

The Green Solution: Professional Trash Removal in Flower Mound

Did you know that the state of Texas has around 36.7 tons of buried waste for every man, woman, and child in the state? This statistic, known as the “waste in place” calculation, sheds light on the fact that landfill space across the state of Texas is quickly filling up. On average, every person in the United States throws away around 4.5 pounds of trash every single day, and less than half of that is either recycled, refurbished, or otherwise kept out of the local landfill. 

Despite the very real problems associated with landfill scarcity and our ever-increasing waste streams, everyone knows that trash does tend to accumulate, no matter how environmental conscious we attempt to be. How we collectively deal with that trash, however, differs widely from place to place. Whereas some countries such as Slovenia have recycling rates of 72 percent, the United States recycles only about one-third of the trash that we throw out. 

Fortunately, many individuals, businesses, community organizations, and local government leaders are implementing strategies to reduce our waste footprint. When it comes to trash removal, businesses and residents of Flower Mound, Texas can help to increase the local landfill diversion rate through working with junk removal companies committed to keeping waste out of the dump. Junk King of Dallas Mid Cities is the region´s top-rated junk removal company. We offer full-service junk removal for everything from used furniture, to large appliances, to construction and yard debris, and more. As long as your junk is not classified as toxic waste, we can take it away. 

Below, we explain a few reasons why Junk King of Dallas Mid Cities is the best option for trash removal in Flower Mound.

full service junk removal

Reason #1: Helping to Prevent Floods 

Most of us probably don’t think that trash collection has a lot to do with flood prevention. However, keeping our trash out of rivers, lakes, drains, and other elements of our storm water collection system plays a fundamental role in helping to avoid flooding in Flower Mound and the surrounding communities of the Dallas/Fort Worth metropolitan area. According to one recent study, the risk of serious flooding in the Dallas region is slowly increasing, with around As 21,722 properties are already at risk for flooding. Each year, flooding in the region causes around $9 million in property damage, and as weather patterns change, this risk will only continue to increase. 

According to a recent 2018 press release by the Flower Mound town government, the town is asking residents to help keep newly fallen leaves from polluting the local ponds, streams and storm water system. Leaf litter in the area regularly clogs the town’s storm water system, ponds, creeks and streams, thus reducing the amount of oxygen to aquatic organisms. Furthermore, excess leaf litter can block these bodies of flowing water, thus increasing the risk for moderate to serious flooding. The town news release offered the following solutions to help prevent leaf litter pollution: 

  • Rake It – Clean up leaf litter on a regular basis
  • Bag It – Place all raked leaves in waste disposal bags
  • Recycle It – Leaves are a valuable commodity in a compost pile. Composting reduces the need for pesticides and fertilizers in gardens.

But what exactly are you supposed to do with dozens of garbage bags full of leaves and other yard debris? Having those bags sit at the end of your driveway for a week (or more) while waiting for the regular trash service isn’t exactly a great way to improve the aesthetic quality of your home´s landscaping. For homeowners who want to do their part to help avoid the flooding that comes with excess leaf litter, but who don’t want to wait for the regular waste management team to come by, Junk King of Dallas Mid-Cities offers fast, efficient, and competitively-priced junk removal service. We can pick up all of your yard debris, and ensure that it doesn’t simply get sent to the local landfill. We also offer fair and transparent pricing so that you only pay for the space that you use in our trucks.

Reason #2: A Commitment to the Environment

Junk King of the Dallas Mid Cities area is not only the top-rated junk removal company, but is also the greenest one. Our junk removal services can help individuals, homeowners, businesses, and even large industries find an environmentally friendly solution to the trash that is accumulating in their spaces. Whereas many junk removal services will simply pick up your trash and drive it to the nearest landfill, we are 100 percent committed to making the effort to finding a “second life” for the items we pick up. 

Our team of junk removal professionals has strong relationships with local recycling operations, donation shops, and several nonprofit organizations. We are thus able to make every effort to either recycle, repurpose, or donate the items that we collect. As we mentioned above, we are able to help turn much of your leaf little and other yard waste into valuable compost, instead of simply being sent to rot at the local landfill. The same goes for the majority of other junk items that we pick up. 

Our network of connections allows us to “upcycle,” donate, or repurpose construction and demolition debris that accumulates during home construction or major renovation projects. Because construction and demolition debris (C&D debris) is almost double the amount of municipal solid waste (MSW), working with Junk King to get rid of any type of construction debris ensures that you are doing your part to keep this large waste stream from ending up in our area´s landfills. 

We provide full junk removal services to the Dallas Mid Cities area, including the towns of Addison, Bedford, Carrollton, Cedar Hill, Colleyville, Coppell, Dallas, Desoto, Duncanville, Euless, Flower Mound, Fort Worth, Grand Prairie, Grapevine, Irving, Keller, Lancaster, and Lewisville.

Could Your Flipping Efforts Soar with Junk King Dallas Mid-Cities by Your Side?

You’ve probably seen the reality shows about flipping houses and thought “I could do that!” Well, it’s true – you absolutely can. Flipping houses can be a terrific way to make money. However, it comes with a long list of challenges, and you need to make sure you’re prepared before you get started.

If you’re in the Dallas Mid-Cities area and you’re thinking about getting into house flipping, or maybe this is already your career option, then Junk King is here to help. Our junk hauling services could be just the thing you need to take your flipping efforts to the next level. Here’s a little information that might be helpful.

The Four Pillars of Flipping in Dallas Mid-Cities

Every time you flip a house, you’re going through the same four basic steps. Step one is buying the house. This might sound like the easy part, but it involves a lot of hard work. Learning how to analyze houses and identify the ones with flipping potential is a skill in and of itself. The second step is financing, or finding the money you use to buy the house. You can use your own money if you have it, but many flippers prefer to take out loans from banks or private lenders. Just make sure you do your research – many first-time flippers stumble here and borrow money from the wrong sources. Remember that this is different from taking out a mortgage, and should be viewed as a potential investment opportunity.

The third step is rehabbing, and that’s where services like Junk King come in. Fixing up the house before you sell it is the most important part of flipping, and even small mistakes can cut into your profit margins. Finally, the last step is selling the house. If you’ve picked the right house and rehabbed it correctly, you can make a significant profit after the sale. Whether or not you’ve performed the other steps correctly will have a major effect on your profits when you sell, so it’s important to make sure you’re getting the help you need.

 

Risks of Rehabbing

Fixing up a house is a lot more difficult than you might think, and many first-time flippers underestimate this step. The first thing to understand is that you don’t need to do everything yourself. If you have experience working on homes, then you can save money by doing some work yourself. However, if your experience only goes as far as basic home improvement projects, you might be better off getting help.

Time is money when it comes to flipping houses, so wasting time by trying to do everything yourself can end up being more costly than just bringing in a little outside help. This can mean stepping aside altogether and hiring contractors, or it can be as simple as hiring a company like Junk King Dallas Mid-Cities. Junk King is a fast, efficient, and inexpensive option to help you avoid wasting time with trips to and from the dump. Waste and trash pile up quickly when you’re renovating a house, so scheduling regular pickups can go a long way towards making your work faster and more efficient.

Junk Hauling Needs During Renovation

Rehabbing a house will inevitably result in a lot of waste. The most common is going to be just bits of junk from the house – chunks of plaster, scrap wood, roofing tiles, anything you needed to tear out before you could put the new stuff in.

Besides the trash from the house itself, you’ll likely end up having to haul away old appliances and pieces of furniture. The ideal house for flipping is one that has good bones but hasn’t been especially well taken care of. This means a lot of old, useless appliances and cheap furniture that won’t do you any good.

You could haul all these pieces to the dump yourself if you have a truck, but you may not want to spend that much time driving instead of working. Full-service junk hauling like the kind offered by Junk King Dallas Mid-Cities is a great choice if you’d prefer to save time.

Junk Hauling Before Selling

When the work is done and the contractors have left, they’ll be leaving behind a significant amount of trash in many cases. That’s no problem if you’ve set up a visit from Junk King – they’ll come back to the house and pick up anything you set out.

When your goal is to finish the home to get it back on the market, taking away the junk is the last thing you want to deal with. Time management is a key part of being a successful flipper. Make sure you are being as efficient as you can at all times. At Jun King Dallas Mid-Cities, they offer full-service junk hauling. All you have to do is bring the furniture and appliances outside, box up any debris from the construction, and they’ll take care of the rest. Cleaning up is a key part of the rehabbing process, and bringing in an outside junk hauling service like Junk King is a great way to get the clean-up finished quickly and easily so you can focus on making the sale.

Junk King Dallas Mid-Cities Has the Expertise You Need

If you’re going to spend money to bring in some outside help to haul your junk, you want to make sure you’re getting the best option. Junk King has the experience you need to haul away any kind of junk you might find while rehabbing a house. Their professionals know how to manage construction debris, as well as any bulky items like furniture, appliances, or even old mattresses. They’ll haul away pretty much anything you can find in a house, as long as it’s not hazardous materials. Flipping can be a stressful experience, especially if you’re new at it. The peace of mind you get knowing your junk is going to be handled correctly is priceless.

Furniture is particularly difficult to haul away, even if you have a truck. It needs to be handled correctly and tied down securely to whatever vehicle you’re using to take it to the dump. Many cities in the Dallas Mid-Cities area don’t allow you to leave furniture at the curb, so it needs to be hauled away. Not only does Junk King Dallas Mid-Cities have experience hauling furniture, but they also have sorting facilities to make sure that everything gets recycled when possible, and the rest gets disposed of properly.

How to Find an Environmentally Friendly Junk Hauling Lewisville

What would you do if you woke up one morning and suddenly found that the garbage truck didn’t come by to pick up your trash? As you wander out to the curb, you see that other neighbors are wondering the same thing. As the days and weeks go by, the garbage service never appears and the piles of trash bags continue to accumulate on street corners, driveways, and other abandoned areas across the city. Local government officials claim that there simply is not any more space in the local landfill, and they have yet to come up with a viable alternative. 

Most people in Lewisville, Texas, as in every part of the country, are entirely reliant on the regular trash pickup services that the local government offers. If that service were to be suspended, even for a brief amount of time, a serious public health crisis would most likely ensue. Though the imagined scenario above is fortunately not likely to occur, it is important for every resident and business in the Lewisville area to take the time to think about where our trash eventually ends up.

The Landfill Closure in Lewisville

According to a 2019 report, the DFW Landfill in Lewisville, which was built in 1972 and operated for over 47 years, is expected to reach capacity sometime in the next three years. Though the landfill was able to operate for several years longer than expected due to careful planning, increased recycling rates, and other landfill diversion programs, it is inevitably close to filling up and shutting down. In 2018 alone, around 1.56 million tons of waste was brought to DFW landfill in Lewisville. 

To deal with the impending closure, the company that operates that landfill has begun to notify towns around the Dallas area that they will no longer be able to accept their trash. This issue obviously challenges local towns like Lewisville to develop long-term contingency plans for how to deal with their waste streams in the future. 

Greta Calvery is the senior public affairs manager for Waste Management, the company that operates the Lewisville landfill. In an interview with NBC Dallas Fort Worth, Calvery says that “if people recycled properly all of the acceptable materials in their curbside and community programs, waste would be drastically reduced. Other options for further reduction include composting yard waste, brush, and other organic materials and simply buying more responsibly.”

What You Can Do to Reduce the Negative Environmental Impacts of your Trash  

Every resident of Lewisville has a responsibility in limiting our waste streams. Not only does this help to reduce pressure on our already-overburdened landfills and waste disposal sites, but it can also play a role in reducing our carbon footprint. For example, making an effort to compost yard waste and other organic materials, instead of sending them to the local landfill, can greatly reduce the amount of methane emissions that occur via landfill gas. Methane is one of the most potent greenhouse gasses, and is at least 28 times more potent than carbon dioxide at causing global warming. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), “municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills are the third-largest source of human-related methane emissions in the United States, accounting for approximately 15.1 percent of these emissions in 2019.” As an added benefit, composting your organic waste will also give you a steady supply of organic fertilizer for your flower or vegetable garden.

Another strategy for residents and businesses of Lewisville to reduce their waste stream is to simply participate in the established recycling programs. Unfortunately, many people and businesses simply do not know how to correctly separate their trash, and this results in increased operating costs that hinder the program. According to a recent statement from The City of Lewisville

“A successful recycling program diverts materials away from landfills, extending the life of landfills and reducing the waste stream. In past years, the City received a rebate from recyclable materials that helped offset the cost of curbside recycling for residences. That no longer is the case and the cost of the program continues to increase for the City and for residents. One of the biggest factors in Lewisville’s increased cost is contamination, which happens when regular trash is mixed in with recyclable materials or when people mistakenly attempt to recycle items that are not recyclable. Reducing contamination could help reduce the cost of the recycling program and make the program more effective.”

Thus, educating yourself on how to correctly separate your regular trash and your recyclables can help to improve the efficiency of the city-wide recycling program. 

Lastly, working with the best junk hauling Lewisville companies that have a proven and established “green” ethic is another way to reduce the negative effects of your junk. Junk King of Dallas Mid Cities knows that even when you make a sincere effort to reduce, reuse, and recycle, there are times when excess junk inevitably piles up around your home or business. Our team will get any size junk removal job done while making sure all your junk gets disposed of properly and safely. We have long-standing relationships with local recyclers, donation shops and nonprofit organizations so all items either get recycled, repurposed or donated giving them a chance to have another life. We are proud to say that at least 60 percent (and often more) of the junk that we pick up is diverted from our area landfill.

Furniture Removal Irving: What You Need to Know 

 

Junk King Servicemen loading sofa onto a junk king truck

updated 8/23/22

 

According to the most recent United States Census Bureau poll, there are over 85,000 households in Irving, Texas. Every one of those households has grown accustomed to putting out their trash to the curb on a weekly basis, expecting that the garbage or recycling truck will come and pick up their waste. Most of us, however, don’t stop to think about where our trash eventually ends up. 

 

Just a few miles away from Irving, one community has had to deal with an enormous pile of toxic waste that literally looms over top of their homes. Millions of individual, discarded roofing shingles were stacked so high in a nearby landfill that the source of toxic waste was given the notorious nickname “Shingle Mountain.”

 

According to one recent report, affected residents complain about a series of serious health problems. “The headaches are just crazy. All this ground up shingles is blowing,” says one resident. “That fiberglass is going off into my throat, and the fiberglass just irritates my vocal cords.” Though local residents were finally able to pressure the city government to deal with this toxic waste, Shingle Mountain is a testament to the problems that come with irresponsible waste management. 

 

Fortunately, most municipal trash services around the country have begun to implement recycling services to limit the amount of trash that is landfilled. However, as China and other foreign markets have essentially shut down the importation of recyclable waste, many municipalities are being forced to scale down their recycling operations. 

 

The City of Irving´s Solid Waste Service Department (SWS) admits that “the City of Irving’s SWS, like many other communities, has been impacted by the changes in the global recycling market. The curbside program once generated enough revenue to offset a significant portion of the operational costs of the service. Now, the curbside recycling program is a full cost center.” 

 

Given these difficulties, the City of Irving´s Solid Waste Services only offers bulk trash pickup once a week. Many items such as scrap building material and other construction and demolition (C & D) debris are simply not accepted for pickup by our municipal trash service. So how exactly can an individual, homeowner, or small business owner responsibly get rid of their bulky trash in an easy and efficient manner? 

 

Fortunately for the residents and businesses of Irving, Junk King of the Dallas Mid Cities region offers both residential and commercial full-service junk removal. Besides servicing the city of Irving, Junk King Dallas Mid Cities also offers junk removal services to businesses and homeowners in the following cities: 

 

  • Addison
  • Bedford
  • Carrollton
  • Cedar Hill
  • Colleyville
  • Coppell
  • Dallas
  • Desoto
  • Duncanville
  • Euless
  • Flower Mound

The Advantages of Hiring Junk King for your Furniture Removal Needs in Irving

 

As we mentioned above, getting rid of furniture is certainly not the easiest thing to do, especially for elderly residents of our community. Furthermore, if you live on the top floor of a multi-family apartment complex, or if you have heavy furniture items that need to be carried down the stairs of your home to be removed, this can lead to the possibility of damage to your back (not to mention the walls of your home. 

 

If you do manage to get those heavy and bulky furniture items out of your home, you will also have to schedule a bulky item pickup with the City of Irving, which usually means you will have to wait until the next curbside recycling pickup day. Having old furniture sitting at the end of your driveway is certainly not an attractive addition to your landscaping, and you may run into problems with your neighbors, or even receive a fine from your local Homeowner´s Association. 

 

Furthermore, it is important to note that the bulky item pickup provided by the City of Irving also requires several special steps to be taken to ensure that the items are taken away. For example, you will need to place your used furniture items in an easily accessible area away from fire hydrants, gas and water meters, utility poles, sprinkler heads and parked cars, etc., for proper collection. If you don’t place the old furniture items correctly, they will most likely still be there when you come home from work. 

 

When you hire Junk King for your furniture removal needs in Irving, however, you will not have to worry about finding a place to store those old and unsightly furniture items until collection day rolls around. We offer fair, transparent, and on-site pricing estimates. In many cases, we are able to haul away your old furniture items on the same day you call us. 

 

Furthermore, we know that many of our residential and commercial clients will simply not have the time, energy, or physical capability to physically haul those old, heavy furniture pieces out to the curb. We are proud to offer the absolute best customer service, and for both our commercial and residential clients, our professional junk removers will do all the heavy lifting, even making the trek up and down those five flights of stairs. For customers who want to practice strict social distancing, we also offer curbside pickup and contact-less payment to ensure that you can protect your health in these challenging times. If you do haul those old furniture items out to the curb for us, we offer discounted pricing. 

 

An Efficient and Environmentally Friendly Furniture Removal Service for Irving 

 

One of the hardest junk items to get rid of is old furniture. When you live on the 5th floor of an apartment building, trying to carry your old sofa or couch down five flights of stairs will most likely lead to a strained back and a fine from the apartment building owner for scratching up the walls in the stairwell. Furthermore, if you are planning to get rid of several pieces of furniture, the municipal trash service will most likely not offer this type of bulk trash service. 

 

If you plan to simply drop off your old and unserviceable furniture on the side of an abandoned road, you could be looking at a pretty hefty penalty. You could be charged with a class B misdemeanor for illegally dumping anywhere between 5 to 500 pounds of waste. This level of charge can entail a fine reaching as high as $2,000 and/or up to 180 days in jail.

 

Lastly, even if you are able to legally get your old furniture picked up the regular trash service, sending bulky furniture to the local landfill poses a serious environmental problem. Our landfills are already nearing full capacity, and bulky furniture takes up an enormous amount of space. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), “each year, Americans throw out more than 12 million tons of furniture and furnishings.”

The Go to Junk Removal Service in Dallas 

 

Of the four pounds of garbage that every American throws away on a daily basis, at least 75 percent of that waste could either be reused, recycled, or composted. Despite major gains in citywide composting and municipal recycling programs, the average recycling rate across the United States is hovering around 34 percent, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Compared to Germany, which has a recycling rate of 67 per cent for household waste, around 70 per cent for production and commercial waste, and almost 90 per cent for construction and demolition waste, it’s clear that we have a way to go to reduce our environmental footprint.  

In the state of Texas, unfortunately, we´re lagging even farther behind in the quest to achieve a “zero waste future.”  The recycling rate in Texas is only 19 percent, and in some cities, the rate is even significantly below that amount.  

In this short article, we´ll take a look at some of the challenges and encouraging signs in Dallas related to reducing the amount of trash we send to local landfills. We´ll also look at how hiring Junk King for your dallas junk removal needs can help homeowners reduce the amount of bulky waste items that end up in our city’s landfill.

The Challenges of Waste Streams in Dallas  

First the bad news. As we mentioned in the introduction, the state of Texas is significantly behind the rest of the nation in terms of recycling rate, and Dallas isn’t much better. In 2013, the city of Dallas had a diversion rate of 20 percent. That year, the city government published a plan to double that amount by 2020. Despite good intentions, however, the 2017 recycling rate continued to maintain around 20 percent. One of the biggest challenges is to find ways to get multifamily housing and commercial businesses to participate in recycling programs.  

Illegal dumping is another worrisome problem in the Dallas area where many people have come to consider the City’s rivers and abandoned areas as their own personal landfill.  To name just one example, the amount of tires being dumped into the Trinity River is becoming a serious public health problem. Not only are they unsightly and cause a potential threat for flooding as they block waterways, but they are also a source of pollution and contamination of our water. In fact, the city of Dallas recently spent $3.2 million removing tires from the Trinity River.

Some Signs for Hope  

In spite of the low recycling rate and the problems with illegal dumping, there are some signs for hope. The city recently built and opened a new, state of the art, $20 million recycling facility. According to the Dallas City News, “the facility processes more than 250 tons of recyclable material per day and will process and recycle approximately 5,000 tons of materials every month.” The facility is one of the main strategies used by the local government to encourage businesses and apartment complexes to increase their recycling rates. The city also has 152 drop off locations where Dallas residents can drop off some of their recyclable wastes.  

Furthermore, the city government has also committed to moving in the right direction. They hope to achieve a 60 percent landfill diversion rate by 2030, and hope to become Zero Waste by 2040. Though those certainly are lofty goals, having an objective to work towards is certainly important. To attain these goals, the main challenge the city faces is related to organic and bulky waste items. The city’s Sanitation Services Coordinator, Murray Myers, recently stated that “Dallas does really well with recycling paper, bottles and cans, but a few updates to the bulk and brush collection would significantly improve our diversion rate.”
