How Removing Yard Debris And Rubbish Removal Can Improve Home Safety And Save Money

How Removing Yard Debris And Rubbish Removal Can Improve Home Safety And Save Money

Every homeowner and renter likes the idea of saving money. And any conscientious resident would agree that maintaining and even improving home safety is a good thing.

But how can yard debris and rubbish removal help with either of those goals?

Fairfax County residents may be surprised to learn that one of the major causes of accidents around the home is falls. In fact, according to the National Safety Council,

“About 14 out of 100 people were injured and about 1 out of 2,100 died from a preventable injury in the home and community venue in 2020. The leading cause of death in our homes and communities is poisoning (56%), followed by falls (26%).

And the Stanford Children’s Health website reports that falls are the leading cause of nonfatal injury for children. Children ages 19 and under account for about 8,000 fall-related visits to hospital emergency rooms every day.

So, one obvious conclusion is that by removing all of the stacks and piles of yard debris and rubbish in and around our yards can drastically diminish the potential for trips and falls.

Eliminating Yard Waste Can Reduce The Risk Of Tripping and Falling That Could Result In InjuriesHome Improvement Through Rubbish Removal and Yard Waste Removal

There is an aesthetic aspect to home improvement that can be easily achieved through junk removal.

In other words, by systematically removing all the yard debris, yard waste, and other types of outdoor rubbish and junk that tends to accumulate and pile up, you can quickly and easily improve the look of your home. And, as we all know, increased “curb appeal” translates into increased home sale value!

Maybe you still haven’t gotten around to taking care of the storm clean-up after last winter’s brutal weather. Or perhaps you recently completed a much-needed renovation or even a minor remodel and now you have piles of hazardous (and unsightly) construction waste that needs to be cleaned up.

And, if you live outside of town and have large numbers of trees on your property – which is quite likely in the greater Fairfax, Virginia area – you may also have a wood pile or two.

While these may need be viewed as yard debris or rubbish, they can represent a domestic hazard if they’ve been sitting in your outdoor spaces for a long time. And this is especially the case if they happen to be sitting close to or right up against your home or garage.

The potential for termite damage caused by wood termites is greater for residents with old wood piles “close to home” as it were.

Which is why taking care of outdoor clean-up tasks such as fallen tree branch removal, construction debris clean-up, and general yard waste disposal is necessary for improving home safety.

But what about the saving money part?

When Hiring Full-Service Junk Removal is More Cost-Effective than DIY Yard Debris Removal

Whatever it is you do for a living, odds are it’s probably not providing junk hauling services. And even professional junk haulers know that it can be far more cost-effective to hire a service than to do it themselves.

Why is that?

Junk hauling services have the equipment, the training, and the manpower to remove and haul yard waste and debris – along with any other kind of junk items – faster, easier, and more efficiently than the rest of us. And junk haulers are accustomed to providing full-service junk removal every day.

Most homeowners and renters, not so much.

 

full service junk removal

 

Consider, for example, the type of vehicle needed for efficient junk and yard waste hauling. Unfortunately, no matter how big your personal vehicle is, unless you own a pickup truck, it’s probably not going to work well.

And even if you do have a truck, it still takes a substantial amount time and labor to clear up all your yard waste, for example, and load it into your truck bed. Then you have to find a suitable facility to dump it at. If your yard debris contains old lumber, scrap metal, broken down yard tools, lawn furniture, swings sets, and other large items, a suitable facility might be harder to locate.

Then there’s the costs.

Fuel costs, costs for tarps and tiedowns, dump fees, more fuel costs, and so on. Of course, your time and labor are worth something, as well, but you’re not going to recoup that, are you?

On the other hand, one visit from the pros at Junk King Fairfax can remove all your yard waste and other junk quickly, efficiently, and for less money. For example, if you have enough waste and rubbish to fill two large pickup truck loads, that will only take up about a third of the space of one of our large junk removal trucks.

And, if you live near, say, Lorton you could have all this loaded and removed for just under $430 or so.

When Your Yard Debris is More Than Your Residential Recycling Bin Can Hold

The truth is that much of the time, yard waste is fairly simple to get rid of. A few small piles of cut grass, shrub and plant clippings, and maybe some tree branches. Snip, snap, crunch – and it goes into your green waste bin!

Most of the time anyway.

But then there’s the major landscaping project, or the total yard and garage cleanup, or the old fence or old deck replacement project. Or maybe it’s storm clean-up from the last unseasonal blow-up that devastated your backyard.

Whatever it is and for whatever reason, sometimes your yard debris is too much for the otherwise handy little waste and recycling bin provided by your waste management service.

That’s when you best alternative is to make the call to Junk King Fairfax, your local full-service junk removal professionals for the Fairfax region. Our highly trained, courteous, and efficient junk haulers will make your yard debris removal job fast and easy.

Removing yard debris saves money and improves safety

Yard Debris: Old firewood.

Here’s the scenario. Five years ago, you had to take down a large tree in your yard. The tree company charges about $500 extra to haul away the wood. You have a fireplace, so you figure you’ll burn the wood: save $500 on the hauling and save $300 per cord for firewood. Brilliant!

But you’ve got more wood than you can burn in a couple of seasons and the wood pile starts growing mushrooms. It starts rotting, and it’s not good for firewood anymore. In fact, your old wood is now a thriving eco-system for insects such as ants, termites, wasps, and ticks brought in by small mammals. We’ve uncovered a copperhead snake in one pile.

You need to get that old, rotting debris out of your yard. Yes, it’s heavy. Yes, it’s nasty. But delaying the removal has a cost, too.

Here is a picture of some wood we recently removed. The log crumbled as we picked it up Note the termites. Also, see the shed about five feet away from the old wood pile. Note the termite damage.

The average cost of termite damage repair in Northern Virginia is $318 per structure
