Junk King Dayton is Dedicated to Reducing Our Impact on the Environment

When we’re young, we don’t really give any thought to where trash goes when the garbage truck picks it up. It magically vanishes, never to be seen again. As we get older and learn more about how the world works, though, we learn that it isn’t magic. Trash goes to a local landfill where it sits until it breaks down. This can take years. In order to get the most out of the space, some landfills compact garbage or arrange it in layers that can be buried by more junk or a layer of soil.

Even with using these techniques, there’s so much trash going into landfills that it still isn’t a fully sustainable model. The EPA notes that in 2018, the U.S. created almost three million tons of waste. Out of that, almost 150 million tons went to the landfill. The other 150 million tons were recycled (70 million tons), composted (25 million tons), food waste that was used in various ways (18 million tons), or combusted using energy transfer methods (35 million tons).

With almost half of the waste being redirected away from the landfill, it may seem like we’re managing our waste quite well. However, that’s not necessarily the case. The EPA also notes that our total waste generation has increased every year since the 1960s. While recycling rates have also jumped, there are still places where we can do better.

Junk King Dayton is dedicated to the environment and reducing our impact on it. We understand that we’re leaving the planet to our children and grandchildren. We have a duty to protect as much of the Earth as we can so they don’t have to clean up our garbage. Let’s look closer at the impact of the landfill on the environment and what we can do to reduce that impact.

It All Adds Up

While three million tons of garbage is a lot, that’s just from one year. The EPA estimates that some 146 million tons of trash were in the landfill in 2018. Even if the U.S. held steady at the three million per year number, that means we’re now at over 158 million tons of junk in the landfill. That doesn’t count the waste that has been illegally dumped in the ocean, lakes, or rivers. That’s an entirely separate problem, especially since experts anticipate that the amount of plastic dumped in the ocean will tripled by 2040.

If e just focus on what has been legally put in landfills across the country, the breakdown is interesting and actually hopeful. Food waste makes up a little over 24 percent of landfill trash. This is organic waste, so it breaks down fairly quickly. The nutrients in this type of waste can seep into the ground and actually help the soil.

The next largest category is plastics. Plastic items make up about 18.5 percent of the trash in landfills. Plastics take a long time to break down—some may sit in the landfill for upwards of 500 years! Fortunately, some of these plastics can easily be recycled.

The same is true with several large categories of trash. Paper (almost 12 percent), metals (9.5 percent), glass (5 percent) and other trash can all be recycled. As more cities roll out municipal recycling programs and recycling technologies improve, the amount of garbage in the landfill may start to decrease.

What Happens if the Landfills Fill Up?

The U.S. has around 2,000 landfills that are currently in use. What happens with our trash when those landfills run out? According to experts, we’re going to find out within about 18 years. That amount of time may be even smaller than we thought now that China has banned the import of certain recyclable plastics. The U.S. sends around a sixth of all its plastic recyclables to China for recycling, but some of those plastics now have nowhere to go.

Even within the U.S., some states are already full. New York, for example, sends millions of tons of waste out of state to places like Alabama. What happens when there’s no more space anywhere? There are a few options.

First, it will force people and companies to start recycling. City garbage programs may simply stop taking paper, cardboard, and certain plastics. Those will have to go in a recycling bin. This will likely come with new city ordinances and protocols for garbage pickup to better identify those who are still putting recyclable materials in their garbage. Companies will need to look into new ways of sorting their waste so that recyclable materials are recycled.

Second, it will push forward the development of new recycling technology. Necessity is the mother of invention, as they say, and it is becoming necessary that we recycle as much as we possibly can.

Third, the U.S. will need to start looking at other ways of dealing with its waste. Some countries have turned to burning trash. There are transfer stations in the U.S. that burn trash to create energy, and we may see more and more of these stations go into operation over the next decade or so. This process has to be done correctly, though, or we will simply go from polluting the land to polluting the air.

Fourth, companies will need to look at ways of using less packaging for their products or using different materials. In some places this is obvious. For example, some frozen pizzas come packaged on a piece of cardboard sealed in plastic and then put in an additional box. That’s a lot of packaging for one item.

What About New Landfills?

Land that could be used for new landfills is becoming less and less available. Many people don’t want a new landfill put in near their residence, while businesses often also protest if the city tries to put one in near their location. There are also major concerns about pollution. Landfills cannot be places too near rivers, lakes, or the coastline because there’s the risk of contaminating the water.

Rather than create new landfills, the best option is to increase how much we recycle or reuse while also reducing the amount of waste we create.

What Does Junk King Dayton Do to Help the Environment?

Junk King aims to help protect the environment by reducing the amount of waste that goes into the landfill. We do this with everything we collect, whether it goes in our truck or in one of our dumpsters. First, we take out anything that could be used by someone else, including furniture and appliances. If you have a sofa that’s still in good condition or an old refrigerator that still works, we’ll make certain it gets passed on to a local organization that needs it or can get it to those in need. This keeps these items out of the landfill, plus it helps those in and around Dayton who need a little assistance.

If something can’t be reused, we’ll see if it can be recycled. We’ve partnered with various recycling centers in Dayton to handle the recyclables we bring in. We don’t just pass on cardboard and glass, either. We’ll disassemble furniture and appliances to get the metals and other materials out of them.

We also recycle electronics. There’s a large amount of plastic and precious metals found in most electronic devices. These precious metals include gold, copper, and palladium, all of which can be quite valuable. By recycling these materials, we’re helping to keep the costs of future electronics from getting out of hand. Once we’ve redirected usable items and pulled out the recyclables, there’s usually only about a third of all the junk we picked up left to go to the landfill. We’re always looking to reduce that amount even more, too.

What Does Junk King Haul Off?

We will take just about anything you have, including old furniture, appliances, electronics, yard waste, and construction debris. The only thing we’re unable to take are items classified as hazardous waste. If you have items that are considered hazardous, we may be able to direct you to a disposal team that can take them, but for our safety, we cannot.

How Does it Work?

Junk King Dayton has a very simple and easy to use process. Once you have gathered the junk and trash you want us to haul off, you give us a call. We will provide you with a free, no-obligation estimate that will include all of the costs and fees of the job. When we arrive, we’ll do a quick in-person estimate to confirm the price.

In addition to calling us, you can also text us photos and information about the items you need hauled away to 1-737-888-5865. Again, we’ll confirm everything with an in-person estimate, but this will give us a good idea of the scope of the job and give you a good idea of the cost. You can also use our online price estimation tool and book your appointment online.

Common Places Junk Likes to Hide

Junk likes to hide in a lot of places. Perhaps it’s more accurate to say that people tend to put junk in some common places, then forget about it. When you start doing some summer cleaning, you may find that you’ve put junk in these spaces. What can you do to keep trash from collecting in common areas, and how can you deal with it? First, let’s take a look at some of these areas that tend to collect junk.

The Garage

It’s very easy for your garage to collect junk because people don’t usually think of it as living space. It’s for parking cars and storage. However, it can quickly become storage for trash. The garage typically collects junk that you can’t easily toss in your garbage bins or that you plan on doing something else with but want it out of the house. Large trash often has to be set aside and either taken to the landfill or set out for bulk trash pickup. However, since the city only collects bulk trash once a month, it’s easy for this junk to be forgotten. You may set something else in front of it or simply forget to take it out on the correct collection day. This can go on for months if you’re not careful.

Since many people do use their garage for storage, it’s easy to end up storing junk. Do you really know what’s in all of the boxes and bins you have in the garage? If you start looking through everything, you may find stuff you thought you got rid of long ago. One way of ensuring this doesn’t happen is to label every box and update those labels when you add or remove things from that box. Having an organized garage is one of the best ways of keeping junk to a minimum.

The Basement

Your basement may fall under the old saying of “out of sight, out of mind.” How often do you really go down there? If your washer and dryer are in the basement, you’ll be down there frequently. This can help you keep the junk in your basement to a minimum because you’ll see it all the time. However, if you have no reason to go down into the basement that often, you may find that a lot of junk has collected in it.

The basement can become storage for holiday decorations, summer and winter sports gear, and old furniture. If you have an exterior access to the basement, you may find it easier to store old furniture and appliances down there instead of in the attic or even your garage. Unfortunately, once something goes down into your garage, it’s likely to stay there.

Another issue with some basements is water damage. You may have a leak that affects the basement, but if you’re not down there often, you may not know about it for months. This can damage the things you have stored there and lead to the growth of mold. Basements can also become homes for mice and other pests. They may start out living in your basement, but you can bet they will eventually make their way upstairs. Keeping your basement organized by using a junk hauling service to get rid of stuff you don’t need will keep your entire house safe.

The Attic

Because it involves taking things upstairs, attics tend to collect smaller things than basements. However, that doesn’t mean the attic won’t end up full of junk. You’re more likely to put boxes of stuff here. Some of this stuff may be things you do want to keep and use occasionally, such as holiday decorations. However, some of it may be stuff you really don’t need. These boxes will continue to pile up over the years until your attic is so full, you can’t put anything else in there.

Like with basements, attics can attract pests. While some mice may get into your attic, you also have to watch out for squirrels and even birds. Any small opening in the roof can let animals in. Roof leaks are another issue and, like leaks in the basement, lead to mold.

The best way of dealing with stuff in the attic is to go through everything once a year. This gives you the chance to check for water or vermin damage as well as determine if you need to keep everything. This is going to be easier if you have a finished or partially-finished attic you can easily get into, but it can be done with a smaller space, too. Of course, you can also do your best to prevent the attic from becoming full by carefully considering what goes into it. The best way to avoid clutter is to continuously edit what you keep.

Your Closet

Do you know exactly what’s in your closet? Often, you’ll have a good idea of what you’ve got in there, but you may have the odd box or two that you’ve forgotten about. Closets in spare rooms or in the hall that you don’t get into often may have even more mystery boxes in them. During your annual summer cleaning, take a look in all of these boxes and label them.

This will not only much easier to find things you may need but also remind you of what you’re keeping. The more you see what you’re keeping, the less likely the “out of sight, out of mind” saying will come into play. You’ll actively think about what’s in the boxes when you see the labels. At some point, you may realize you just don’t need to keep them any longer. Of course, if you look at a box and find yourself smiling when you think of what it holds, it’s not a box of junk—it’s a box of precious memories you may want to keep forever. Keep the items that bring you happiness, but don’t store junk.

The Spare Room

Do you have a guest bedroom, home office, exercise room, or other spare room? If so, the closet in that room may become something of a catch-all. It may be where you shove stuff you want to hold on to but don’t have space for elsewhere. If you’re not using the room daily, the entire space could become full of random stuff.

It can be easy to turn a spare room into your storage room, and sometimes it’s actually the right move. For example, if you’re redoing another part of your house, having an extra room to store your furniture and other items means you avoid renting a storage unit. However, if the spare room becomes a permanent home for this type of stuff, especially if guests couldn’t use it, you have a problem.

The Shed

Old yard equipment, lawn furniture, and other backyard stuff can collect in your shed. Many people don’t get in their shed too often, and even fewer people take everything out and sort through it every year. Do you know what’s in your shed? It could be a lot of junk you don’t need. Like the basement and attic, sheds can be subject to leaks and infestations. Be sure to check your shed for leaks or signs that animals have been in it every year, and take the time to organize and get rid of anything you no longer need.

What Do You Do with this Junk?

Now that you know where to look for junk, what do you do with it when you find it? The easiest solution is to call Junk King Dayton to haul away any large junk you don’t need. We will take furniture, old appliances, bags of trash, electronics, and much more. As long as it isn’t considered hazardous waste, we can haul it away.

7 Ways to Make Fall Backyard Cleanup Easier in Miamisburg

The time has come to begin doing all of your fall maintenance, cleaning, and prep work for the winter. This fall cleaning is similar to your spring cleaning, but the underlying focus is different. In the spring, you’re cleaning everything up and getting your backyard in shape so you can enjoy it during the warmer months. In the fall, however, your cleaning needs to focus more on winterizing the space and preparing it to endure the cold temperatures and weather that’s coming.

Cleaning up the yard and getting ready for the fall can be a chore, of course, which is why you want to make the process as easy as possible. Here are a few different ways to make your fall backyard cleanup in Miamisburg and the surrounding areas as quick and easy as possible.

Call Junk King Dayton When It’s Backyard Cleanup Time

The easiest way to get your yard debris under control is to call on Junk King. Our team handles junk debris and other garbage, plus we’ll take your old furniture, appliances, and any other junk you have hanging around.

When you call us in to deal with yard waste, we’ll do more than take your bagged clippings and other waste. We will take tree branches, stumps, firewood, old lumber, and just about anything else you happen to have that needs to go. We won’t do the actual tree trimming for you, but once those limbs are down, we’ll haul them straight to our truck.

In addition to yard debris, we will haul away your old fencing, patio furniture, and even that demolished old shed or small greenhouse. Getting rid of that debris can be a pain. Some city services won’t take plasterboard, drywall, or other construction debris. We will. We’ll haul away old doors, windows, sheetrock, plastic, and any other building material you’ve got that you want rid of.

Don’t Wait Until the Weather Gets Bad

The time to start your backyard cleanup is now, not in a month or so when the weather is already getting bad in some places. You need to take care of your winterization and cleaning before the snow, ice, and other cold weather starts in. While it may seem like you have a lot of time, it’s important to remember that the closer we get to the holiday season, the more events you may have. It can be difficult to find a weekend to spend on your yard when you’ve got so much going on.

If a storm does blow in, it can delay your cleanup plans by a week or more. It’s very difficult to do anything when there’s a lot of mud and standing water in your yard. These storms may bring down some of the limbs you wanted to remove from your trees, but it’s not the controlled trimming you would do. Instead, the limbs could end up on your car, your home, or on other things, causing damage. Some items you may have planned on donating may be completely destroyed.

We are available throughout the year, but even we can’t haul away junk when the weather is horrible or right after a large storm has come through and left debris everywhere. We’ll do everything we can to get to your home as soon as possible when you call us, but we do have to keep the weather in mind.

Have a Plan

Before you start your backyard cleanup, take a few minutes to come up with a plan. What do you need to get rid of? What do you need to winterize or bring in before the temperature drops? What do you want to donate or pass on to a friend or family member? If you simply go out in the yard and start moving things around, you may find that you don’t actually accomplish much. You might forget things, or you may find that you just don’t know where to start.

Having a plan, or at least a list of things that need to be done, will help you stay on task and make certain everything is taken care of. You might start with cutting the hedges and end with calling Junk King to come pick up the debris. Having this list will also make it easier to delegate or assign tasks to your family members. You won’t have several people standing around while you clean out the shed because they will have their own jobs to attend to.

Make Sure You Have all the Necessary Tools and Equipment

By making a plan, you will also know what tools and equipment you’re going to need. While you might think you only need a chainsaw and a ladder to deal with your limbs, you may realize you also need trimmers, electric hedge trimmers, a wheelbarrow, a sledgehammer, or one of a number of other tools. It all depends on what you’re doing as part of your yard cleanup and what tools you have on hand. If there’s something you don’t have, you should buy or borrow it before you start work.

Also, take a few minutes to make sure your tools are in good condition and that you have the right fuel or cords for any power tools you’ll be using. You may need to sharpen your pruning sheers or replace your chainsaw’s chain before you begin.

Select a Designated Junk Site

While we will pick up limbs and other junk that you’ve scattered across your yard, it’s actually easier for you to have a designated spot to gather all of the debris from your yard work. This way, you won’t be stepping over tree limbs to get to the hedges or avoiding the debris of your old shed while working on your fence. Yes, it takes a little more work to haul all of the debris to one spot in your yard, but it’s safer and easier to work by doing so. This also makes our job easier, which we do appreciate! We can be in and out much more quickly if everything is piled up in one spot.

Do You Want to Outsource Anything?

Junk King can come haul away all of the debris after you’ve finished doing the work, but is there anything else you want to outsource? There are some fall cleanup tasks you could hire others to do. For example, you could hire a gutter cleaning service to handle that job. If all you need to do is clean out the gutters, this may not be something you want to spend money on. However, if you know your gutters need repairs or rebalancing, you may need to call those specialists out anyway. While they are there, why not have them do a professional cleaning?

You can also hire a landscaper to come deal with your flowerbeds, shrubs, and other parts of the yard. These experts may know what flowers need to have mulch laid around them to help them through the winter and other knowledge that will help keep your landscaping looking good in the spring.

Don’t Forget to Check for Damage

During your fall backyard cleaning, be sure you look at the cement, pavers, shed, and other items in your backyard. You want to find damage now before the winter weather hits. If you have a paver patio, for example, and there’s a crack in the paver, it will likely be worse in the spring. That’s because water will get into the crack and freeze, causing it to expand and making the crack worse. If your shed has any holes or damage to the walls, rodents will make their way inside to escape the cold. They can do all sorts of damage to the items you have stored in there. Doing these repairs now will save you extra work and cost in the spring.

Ready to Clean up Your Backyard?

If you haven’t begun planning your fall backyard cleanup, you really should. The weeks are moving along fairly quickly, and you never know when bad weather will hit. Even if you can’t devote an entire day to this task, you can plan out what needs to be done and break the work down into smaller jobs that you can take care of within an hour or two. You don’t have to do everything in one go.

Once you do have your backyard cleaned up and have the junk ready to be hauled away, give Junk King a call. We will come take away all of your yard debris as well as any old furniture, appliances, and other garbage you have. We are “on time, fairly priced, work hard, and are professional” as one of our previous clients said in their review.

To get a free, no-obligation estimate or to make an appointment with Junk King, give us a call at 1-888-888-JUNK or book an appointment online. You can also text us pictures of what you need hauled away to 1-737-888-5865. We’ll get back to you with an estimate and work with you to determine the best pickup time.

E-waste Disposal & Recycling in Dayton

Junk King Dayton

The average household in the United States has two televisions, and a lot of homes have a lot more than that! Televisions tend to have about an eight-year “useful life” in most homes before they are replaced. But what happens to these electronics at the end of their “useful life”?

The fact is that LED and LCD televisions might be a lot sleeker than the cathode ray tube (CRT) televisions that they’re replacing. The problem is that CRT televisions and computer monitors – the ones with the fat backs – are filled with lead glass and heavy metals, rendering them hazardous to leave in landfills.

Popping your CRT television in the trash is also not a great idea, and it might even be illegal in your area. Many old CRT televisions contain six pounds of lead and other harmful metals like cadmium, mercury, beryllium. For all of these potential dangers, many of the materials inside CRT televisions can be recycled into fresh products and household appliances.

Junk King and E-waste removal

Electronic Waste

Some have estimated the amount of CRT waste in households around the United States at five billion pounds. The amount adds up when you consider that many of these televisions were purchased decades ago and that millions of households have one or more stowed away in the basement.

Because you might have a very difficult time reselling an old television, you might want to consider Junk King as one convenient option. If your old television is a CRT television, then recycling might be problematic because the newer LCD and LED screens don’t use that kind of lead glass anymore.

(What’s more, there’s not much of a need in the recycling market for the kind of lead glass on offer with CRT technology.)

Two great options when you’re looking to get rid of your old television are contacting a certified vendor to find out more information on recycling or simply contacting Junk King. Junk King is a full-service junk removal company that allows you to pick a date and time with two-hour service windows. At Junk King, we take almost every imaginable kind of electronic waste, including:

-Televisions
-Computers
-Monitors
-DVD players
-Printers
-Copiers
-Shredders
-And much more!

Junk King can help to recycle or donate your old television for you. The latter option is a good one if your television is in working order since schools, non-profit organizations, and homeless shelters can all benefit from a usable television.

Recycling Old Televisions and Larger Electronics

E Waste Disposal

The Consumer Electronics Survey conducted a study in 2014 and found that 46% of homes had at least one CRT television, which can likely be recycled. Although the lead glass is typically not prized very highly, the circuit boards inside contain copper and there’s likely some amount of gold, silver, and palladium inside larger electronics.

The first step that many recyclers will take when approaching an old television or monitor is separating the glass from the plastic casing. After removing the lead glass from the casing, the smaller parts may be shredded into more manageable pellets; then, optical sorters will separate the plastics inside from the valuable metals, such as gold and silver.

Earth911

The website Earth911 will allow you to find a local recycler in your area if you’re looking for e-waste removal of CRT televisions or CRT monitors in your area. The plastic, copper, and wood that compose your old television can be turned into new products or sold anew on the commodities market. Some buyers specialize in the circuit boards themselves and would be happy to put in a bid once your old television is recycled!

Electronics Retailers

More national electronics retailers, such as Best Buy, have their own recycling programs. The actual policies vary by state but typically Best Buy will take CRT televisions and CRT monitors that are 32 inches or less and LED televisions that have screens that are 60 inches or smaller. A retailer like Best Buy may still take your CRT television if it is over 32 inches, but there’s a different protocol.

If your television is very bulky, then Best Buy might have to pick it up from your home per e-waste removal. The pickup can come with a fee. Retailers like Best Buy might have a special policy whereby they will waive the fee and take a CRT television bigger than 32 inches from your home or workplace as long as you purchase a new television from Best Buy.

For small televisions and monitors, though, you can take the electronics to your local participating retailer and they will recycle them for you. Best Buy has a pretty generous policy whereby they will take up to three approved household appliances per day. (Best Buy is the single biggest retailer collector of e-waste, with over two billion pounds of e-waste and appliances taken to date.) Approved appliances include:

-Televisions
-Video game consoles
-Audio equipment
-Cell phones
-Radios
-Cameras
-Car audio
-And more!

Best Buy takes 400 pounds of products for recycling every minute that the Best Buy doors are open. Best Buy will take the approved electronic waste and household appliances irrespective of where it was purchased. Just remember that appliances that are very large (e.g., CRT televisions over 32 inches) may incur a pick-up fee under certain circumstances.

Junk King: One-stop Shop for E-waste removal

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says that only 12 percent of e-waste is recycled, so there’s more work to be done. Junk King is North America’s number-one-rated junk removal company because of its commitment to keeping e-waste out of landfills. The plan is to recycle, repurpose, and reuse as much as possible.

At Junk King, we do all the heavy lifting. If you like, you can simply point and Junk King’s insured employees will haul away your old electronics.

Signs You’re Ready for Appliance Removal

Did you know that some of your most-used appliances are also the ones with the shortest lifespan?

Trash compactors, dishwashers, and microwaves have the shortest lifespans, on average. These appliances should last about nine years with regular use.

Gas ranges are supposed to last about 15 years, whereas dryers and refrigerators will last about 12 years with regular use. A lot of this is longevity with your appliances is based on regular upkeep.

With the right maintenance, an air conditioner can last 20 years, whereas forgetting to change the filter one too many times can shorten the lifespan of your AC.

The good news is that appliance removal Dayton will be there to take all types of household appliances when the time comes for replacement.

Are Your Appliances Ready for Replacement?

When your appliances get older, they typically become less efficient. What’s more, as the years pass appliances are becoming more efficient anyway, so you might reap more energy efficiency by upgrading.

Appliance removal Dayton is truly full-service junk removal, which means that the experienced and insured employees at Junk King will do all of the heavy lifting and transport the following appliances from your home:

•Air conditioners
•Refrigerators
•Large freezers
•Washing machines
•Dryers
•Microwaves
Water heaters
Space heaters
Stoves
Ovens
And much more!

Let’s take a quick look at what can go wrong with some of the most common household appliances and why it is so crucial that these appliances are recycled through Junk King.

Refrigerators

Many appliances like refrigerators and air conditioners actually have dozens of components that can go bad. The electrical system on your fridge or its compressor could give out one day.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says that around nine million refrigerators and freezers are thrown away every year in the United States. Because refrigerators contain ‘bad’ chemicals like CFCs, HFCs, and PCBs and heavy metals like mercury, you want to make sure that all the parts get recycled.

Judy and I at Junk King are part of North America’s ‘greenest’ junk removal company and will do our best to recycle, reuse, or repurpose wherever possible. Junk King Dayton has been working in conjunction with the EPA and its Responsible Appliance Disposal since the programs inception in 2006.

Air Conditioners

There are a few tell-tale signs that your air conditioner needs replacing that you shouldn’t ignore. Funky smells, a buildup of moisture around the unit, and higher-than-unusual energy bills might be a sign that your unit is defective and needs an upgrade.

A buildup of moisture around your air conditioner – do you notice any buildup of water or puddles around the unit? – could mean that you are dealing with a refrigerant leak. This can be a health issue if you let the problem get out of control.

A grinding sound or funky smells could be another sign that your air conditioner needs replacing. Junk King can handle even the heaviest appliance removal Dayton thanks to special equipment like dollies and moving straps…and the ‘big red’ Junk King trucks!

You’ll most likely save a lot of green by going with North America’s ‘greenest’ junk removal service, but you also might save on your utility bills. The Department of Energy says that a more efficient air conditioner could lead to up to a 40% reduction in cooling expenses.

To get the best results on your new AC unit look for a score of 15 or higher in terms of a SEER – Seasonal Energy Efficient Rating – on your new unit. Remember to make sure your new unit fits the square footage of the living space you want cooled, too.

Washing Machines

Some say that a good rule of thumb for knowing when to replace your washing machine is simply to look at your phone! That’s because washing machines older than your current smartphone might be far less efficient than new models.

Other clues that your current washing machine could use an upgrade include:

•Drum spinning inefficiently
•Noisier than it used to be
•Water doesn’t drain fully
•Too small for changing needs

A lot of loud, clunking noises during regular operation of your washing machine could indicate the motor or drum are malfunctioning. Sometimes this indicates the problem with your washing machine is too far gone and your need appliance removal Dayton.

Leftover water after the spin cycle or a washer that is doing a poor job of washing your clothes could mean that you need to call Junk King for appliance removal. Junk King Dayton takes both washers and dryers.

Washers and dryers often come as a single ‘package’, and you might find yourself ordering replacements every 12 years or so. When the time comes for appliance removal Dayton contact Junk King at 1-888-888-5865 (JUNK) or book online to save $20 on orders of more than $99.

Microwaves

While a washing machine can simply be a pain when it fails, a dying microwave can actually pose a health risk. Smoke, sparks, or a door that doesn’t close properly could be signs that your microwave is dying and needs replacing ASAP.

(If your microwave door is warped or isn’t closing properly, that can actually constitute a fire risk. Especially if the microwave is out of warranty, consider calling 1-888-888-5865 (JUNK) for appliance removal Dayton for defective microwaves and other appliances.)

Microwaves should last about seven years with regular use and around five years with heavier use. If your microwave is making unusual noises during operation or isn’t cooking your food properly, then it might be time to upgrade.

The home appliance experts say that the same rule applies with microwaves as we say before with washing machines: consider replacing it if more than ten years since purchase have gone by.

Microwaves and air conditioners can develop more mundane problems with the onboard electronics, which nonetheless might call for replacement appliances. Your appliances will typically need upgrading anyway after ten years.

Appliance removal Dayton will be there to help when the time comes. Contact Junk King Dayton at 1-888-888-5865 (JUNK), text a photo to 1-737-888-5865, or book online to save $20 on orders of more than $99.

It’s a safe bet that somewhere in the world, a tracker trailer is tipping over and spilling its contents on the road. Vandalia was the most recent recipient of this unwelcomed accident when a tracker trailer went off road spilling thousands of compressed bottles. Fortunately, the driver wasn’t hurt but the nearby Brown School was closed until the cleanup was completed. The driver was cited for “failure to control his truck” but it was still an accident. In other words, the cleanup was a surprise. Around your home, there probably isn’t any “surprise cleanup” needed other than the occasional soda spill. That doesn’t mean you don’t need to take care of some junk removal. You just need the right kind of help. That would be Junk King.

With Junk King on the junk removal assignment, you’ll find that anything you want tossed out will “vanish” right before your eyes.

This could also be the place where some old furniture has gone to rest. The result is that you’re losing a lot of good storage space that could be put to better use. Wouldn’t it be nice to park your car in the garage again? What about setting up a workbench for your crafts? All of that can happen when you let the Junk King crew do their thing!
