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.

Junk King Fairfax Does Yard Waste Removal

yard waste removal fairfax

If you live in Fairfax county, getting rid of your yard waste will be getting a little more difficult. Beginning April 19, Fairfax County no longer accepts yard debris–to include grass clippings and leaves–in plastic bags.

Many homeowners and renters living in northern Virginia and Fairfax County have backyards, while others live on properties with large outdoor spaces containing broad lawns, maybe some wooded areas, and plenty of room to play and relax.

While most of these residents have little problem with the periodic mowing, trimming, and subsequent yard waste removal, that’s usually because they have smaller properties, or they have landscaping firms take care of it for them. 

But not everyone has “people for that” nor do they really need to. But when they do engage in a serious cleanup or landscaping maintenance, the bigger the space, the bigger the mess! 

In other words, regardless of how large or how small your property, being a homeowner, tenant, or even a property manager means you often have yard waste you need to dispose of.

Spring Cleaning can Mean Outdoor Cleaning, Too!

If you’re feeling particularly ambitious this spring after more than a year being stuck inside more often than not, you might want to tackle more than just the house with a spring cleaning. In fact, your yards and other outdoor spaces may be screaming for a major cleanup.

We get it!

However, once you’ve completed your outdoor spring cleaning you may find that you now have a great deal of yard debris and waste. If you compost, you can probably reuse or recycle some of these materials. But what do you do if you have far more yard waste than you can manage yourself?

While you can certainly put some of it in your recycling bin, as we will explain farther along here, that may not be the best solution. And what do you do if you have more than you can put in there? While Virginia does not ban yard waste from landfills, many states do. 

(By the way, the state of Virginia does ban asbestos, car batteries, liquid waste, medical waste, and motor oil.)

The good news is that your local Junk King Fairfax waste removal team is ready to provide you with efficient and affordable yard waste removal.

What can we take?

Pretty much everything and anything other than hazardous materials. If you have it sitting outside or in your yard, we can most likely haul it away for you. In fact, we have a long list of items we take, including:

  • – Branches
  • – Clippings
  • – Stumps
  • – Soil and sod
  • – Landscaping debris
  • – Fencing
  • – Firewood, lumber, or old timber

So, you don’t waste your time making trips to a waste transfer station or a landfill when you can make a quick call to Junk King Fairfax. Let our professional team with our large truck do it all for you.

Green Waste Removal for Green Waste

At Junk King Fairfax we are quite serious about being a green junk removal operation. And we demonstrate this by our commitment to the goal of our company’s environmentally friendly mission, which is to recycle, reuse, and donate as much as possible

Junk King is the only nationally recognized junk removal company that regularly maintains a recycling rate of 60 percent or more of everything we haul away.

And believe it or not, this includes organic yard waste – or “green” waste.

Actually, when it comes to composting, a distinction is made between “green” items and “brown” items. The green materials are rich in nitrogen and, among other things, these include grass clippings and leaves. Brown materials provide much-needed carbon and are made up of branches and twigs.

Because it is all compostable and reusable, it can all be thought of as “green” waste, however. But there’s a problem when all this gets waste dumped into a landfill instead of composted or otherwise reused.

According to a post at Basmati.com,

“The dangers of tossing yard waste into the landfill can lead to negative effects one might not consider. As the Sierra Club points out, “it can generate methane gas and acidic leachate and, according to the EPA, can seep underground and into nearby buildings where it has the potential to explode.”

Old leaves, grass, and other clippings and trimmings can contribute to groundwater pollution and hinder waste incineration. In fact, seemingly harmless grass and leaves have an entire rap sheet of unfriendly ecological effects when put into landfills. 

The good news is that Junk King Fairfax is trained and equipped to take care of proper disposal of yard waste for you. We can come out to your home and haul away any yard waste and debris that you need to get rid of and do so in a green, eco-friendly manner.
