Wayne Junk Removal: How Junk King Can Help You Improve your Recycling Rate

Did you know that a recent survey of nine cities across Pennsylvania found that these city governments collectively spend more than 68.5 million dollars fighting litter? The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation even further spends nearly 14 million annually cleaning up our state´s highways and other roads. Besides the obvious fact that this money could go to infrastructure improvements, across the state, it also shows that many regions across Pennsylvania are suffering from excessive littering and pollution. 

Fortunately, for people who live in the city of Wayne, Pennsylvania, we tend to have some of the cleanest streets and public areas across the State. However, getting rid of certain junk items can be difficult due to the restrictions on bulky waste pickup offered by the township of Radnor. 

Below, we briefly outline why Junk King is the best way to help businesses, individuals, homeowners, and other residents of Wayne to get rid of all of their junk items in the most efficient and environmentally friendly way possible.

A Few of the Challenges with Wayne Junk Removal

As with many towns and cities across Pennsylvania, getting rid of bulky junk items is not always covered by the local trash service. In many cases, homeowners and business owners may have to schedule special pickups, haul heavy, awkward items out to the curb, and interrupt their busy schedules in order to get rid of these items. 

According to the township or Radnor that offers regular garbage collections for residents of Wayne, PA, 

Bulk items such as refrigerators, stoves, dehumidifiers, water heaters, washing machines, dryers, dishwashers, air conditioners, or any other large appliances, bed springs, box springs, metal beds, fencing or posts are not accepted in the normal refuse collection.

Televisions, desktop or laptop computers and their components are no longer accepted by the Radnor Township Refuse Department for regular or Bulk Item Collections. These items must be taken to an electronics recycling event for disposal.

The Bulk Item Collection Program is open ONLY to Radnor Township residents, NOT commercial businesses.

Getting rid of bulky junk items in the Wayne, PA area requires a significant amount of time and effort. In the specific case of TVs, computers, phones, and other sources of electronic waste (e-waste), you will have to take these items to special drop off centers. If you accidentally send out used and broken down electronics with the regular trash, you may be risking a hefty fine. For business owners in our city, bulky item collection is not even offered by the municipal trash service. 

Furthermore, getting rid of yard waste is also strictly regulated by the city trash pickup service. For example, the city requires that all yard waste be placed in bio-degradable bags or a 35 gallon refuse container for collection. No plastic bags are allowed, and the contents cannot exceed 50 pounds. Tree limbs need to be cut into small pieces, and no firewood will be collected. Bagged leaves will not be collected during the township-wide leaf collection season in November and December, and no yard waste will be collected that is sticking out of a container.

Norristown Junk Removal: Top Three Tips for the Most Efficient Junk Removal Service

No matter how organized we may try to be, there are inevitably going to be times when our homes, offices, and businesses get filled up with excess “stuff.” When a child moves away to college, when you inherit old furniture and antique items from a relative who has passed away, or when you finally make time to renovate an older room in your home: these are just a few of the moments in life when you will most likely find yourself burdened by excess amounts of junk taking up precious space in your home. For residents, homeowners, and business owners in Norristown, PA, getting rid of that junk in the most efficient and timely manner is often an important and urgent matter.

In many cases, waiting for garbage day to come around might mean having to deal with plastic garbage bags taking up space in your garage or in your driveway. For larger and bulkier junk items, you may even have to spend time negotiating and requesting a bulk item pickup with the local trash service. If you are looking for a quicker and more efficient junk removal service in Norristown, your local Junk King franchise is here to help! In this short article, we will briefly offer three tips for the most efficient junk removal service.

Norristown Junk Removal Tip #1: Decide What Goes and What Stays Before We Show Up

Here at Junk King, we know that both our residential and commercial clients will often need to get rid of large amounts of trash and junk in the most efficient way possible. In most cases, our professional junk removal teams will be able to pick up your junk on the same day you call us. To avoid setbacks, we usually recommend that our clients take time to go through the junk items to ensure that they are not accidentally throwing away certain items that might have a sentimental value attached to them.

In the past, we have helped clients with estate foreclosures, estate cleanouts, and downsizing. During all of these moments, it is well worth your time to carefully go through all of the items to ensure that you have identified all of the keepsakes, antiques, and other items that might hold important sentimental value to you and your family.

By taking the necessary time to go through the items before we show up, it will ultimately save you time and help to ensure that you are not accidentally throwing away precious family memories that were intended to be saved.

Norristown Junk Removal Tip #2: Dedicate a Space on your Property for the Junk Items

One of the greatest aspects that comes with hiring Junk King for all of junk removal needs is that we are able to do all of the heavy lifting and hauling for you. Whereas some junk removal companies may require you to move your junk items out of your home or onto the driveway, our junk removal professionals will pick up your junk items wherever they are located on your property. In some cases, we can even help you with minor demolition of certain items that need to be broken down in order to be hauled away in our truck.

However, we understand that some clients may not want strangers coming into their home, especially during the ongoing pandemic. We take the health and welfare of our crew and customers very seriously. Here’s what we’ve been incorporating into daily operations to adapt to the new normal: We maintain a 6-foot distance from every customer. Our haulers can pick up curbside, never entering your home. You can send photos to the Junk King team for a touch-less price quote. You can pay for our services over the phone to limit social exposure. Gloves, masks and hand sanitizers are provided on every truck used to protect you and our haulers.

If you prefer “contact-less” junk removal service, you will want to designate a spot on your property where you can temporarily store your junk until you´re ready for us to come and haul it away. This might also be a good idea if you need extra time to go through junk items, or if you are going through a home or landscape renovation that might yield large amounts of junk items. By designating a space to store your junk items, you can avoid the excess clutter and help to make the whole junk removal process more efficient and streamlined.

Norristown Junk Removal Tip #3: Choose the Company with the Greenest Reputation

Lastly, it is extremely important to prioritize junk removal companies that have a proven track record in the greenest junk removal practices. Here in the greater Philly area, reducing the amount of junk that we send to our area landfills is something that should be a concern to all of us.

In fact, legislation adopted by the Borough of Norristown states that:

The reduction of the amount of solid waste and conservation of recyclable materials is an important public concern because of the growing problem of solid waste disposal and its impact on the environment. The collection of used or old materials, for the purpose of recycling, from residences in the Borough will serve the general public interest and will result in a financial advantage to the residents and taxpayers of the Borough by reason of the income realized from the sale of these recyclable materials, as well as the cost avoidance from not landfilling the materials. It is vital that regulation of this collection be established to ensure that private interests are not promoted to the disadvantage of the residents and taxpayers of the Borough, as well as to encourage the fullest possible citizen participation in the program.

One way to easily reduce your personal or business´s waste footprint is by choosing to hire Junk King for all of your junk removal needs. Junk King is one of the few junk removal companies around the country that has an environmental ethic as a foundational element of our business model. We originally began our junk removal services as a way to offer our residential and commercial clients an environmentally friendly way to deal with all different types of junk and waste that they accumulate. We are proud to say that we are committed to recycling, donating, repurposing, or “upcycling” at least 60 percent of the junk that we pick up. For many types of junk, we are almost always to recycle or donate a much higher percentage of what we haul away.

How to Hire Junk King for your Norristown Junk Removal Needs?

When you call us, we guarantee fair and transparent cost estimates in writing.

What to do with your junk when the college year is over?

Did you know that the greater Philadelphia area is home to a large number of colleges? Studies have shown that colleges and universities play critical roles in their local economies, and offer needed support to local businesses, especially during times of economic downturns. However, it is also true that large numbers of college students also add extra stress to a city’s waste management system. The thousands of students that populate our region often leave behind an enormous amount of waste, especially during the end of semester and graduation times. 

Junk King Greater Philadelphia is the region’s top-rated junk removal service. We offer both commercial and residential junk removal service. With the month of May being graduation month, we also know that thousands of students at our local colleges and universities are getting ready to make a major move in their lives. Whether you are graduating and moving on to your next adventure in life, or simply need to move out of the dorm or rental house or apartment where you spent the last year, our professional junk removal teams offer the easiest, most affordable and most environmentally friendly junk removal services on the market.

The Amount of Trash Left Behind by College Students

According to one recent study, the average college student produces an incredible 640 pounds of trash each year. The vast majority of these junk items accumulate at the end of the year during move-out and graduation. Most colleges and universities put strict deadlines on moving out of dorm rooms and other on-college housing units once the school year ends. Furthermore, students living in rental homes and apartments may also need to move out quickly after the school year ends to avoid having to pay an extra month of rent and if you are renting your apartment or house needs to be in good condition in order to get your security deposit back.

Given these strict time frames, many students and their families are faced with the stressful task of trying to get rid of enormous amounts of bulky junk items in the quickest amount of time possible. In some cases, old books, clothes, furniture, and other junk items are taken back to the parent’s home where it is stored in an attic, basement, or garage. As many parents know, this extra clutter can certainly take up a lot of space in our already over-cluttered residence. 

In other cases, many students and their families simply pile up their junk in local dumpsters, or take their old items to the nearest landfill. The “annual tradition” of throwing away belongings to start again next school year is incredibly wasteful, and unfortunately adds an extra burden to our landfill system that is quickly filling up. 

One recent study by Tufts University found that every year, there is a significant increase in the total amount of solid waste generated on college campuses during the months of May and June. On the average university, students leave behind around 230 tons of waste every year during the graduation months. 

What’s even more surprising and regretful is the fact that the majority of the junk that gets thrown away is either reusable or recyclable. Leftover food items from your dorm room kitchen can easily be donated to food banks and other charities. Old furniture items that you don’t want to pack back to your parent’s house or stored in a self-storage facility can be dropped off at Goodwill or other thrift stores. Even your old college textbooks can be donated to a local library, instead of simply trashed once the school year is over.

How Junk King Greater Philadelphia can Help You Get Rid of Your Unwanted Junk Items

Unfortunately, not every student or family has the time to carefully go through the items left behind in their dorm rooms or other student housing to determine what can be recycled, donated, or reused. When you are preparing for graduation ceremonies, or getting ready for your next big move in life, you probably don’t want to spend an enormous amount of time cleaning out your house or dorm room. So what is the best way to get rid of your junk items without having to dedicate an entire day or two of your busy schedule?

Finding The Best Junk Removal Service in King of Prussia

There is nothing worse for a community than to wake up one morning and find that a street corner or abandoned lot is completely filled with trash bags that weren’t collected overnight during the regular trash pickup. Furthermore, illegal dumping and large-scale littering also cause serious problems to communities around the Greater Philadelphia area, especially to the people living in King of Prussia (KOP). Besides the ugliness of abandoned cars, bags of smelly trash, and construction debris littering our roads and communities, illegal dumping and trash that is not picked up on time can also pose a serious health risk. For community members who live near areas that regularly have a serious littering problem, the presence of trash can also drive down property prices. 

Though law enforcement, local government, and other institutions have a role to play in cracking down on illegal dumping practices, everybody can and should contribute to cleaning up our town. Junk King Greater Philadelphia arearemove the word area is one private company doing its part to help keep King of Prussia and surrounding areas in our community healthy and clean.

Below, we outline some of the problems related to public trash removal services and illegal dumping in the greater Philadelphia region and explain how Junk King´s junk removal service can be an answer to these growing problems.

 

Illegal Dumping in Greater Philadelphia area: A Problem that Affects Us All

During the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, there were obviously several public services that were suspended due to the unprecedented public health crisis and the resulting lockdown orders. Waste management services were rightfully deemed to be an essential service/business and continued to operate throughout the pandemic. However, there were several serious problems that arose throughout 2020 with regular trash pickup. 

According to one 2020 report in the Greater Philly area

Sidewalks in Philadelphia neighborhoods are covered with plastic bags full of trash that haven’t been collected in a week. It’s rotting. It smells. It’s full of holes. And nobody knows when it’s going to get picked up. The city blames the pandemic, which has caused more people to stay home and make more trash, along with a shortage of sanitation workers as the main reasons trash pickup is delayed. But the workers have a different view.

Fast forward a year or two, and many of the same management issues related to regular trash pickup service continue to plague many parts of the city. The Philadelphia Inquirer reported last year that “communities across the Philadelphia region are experiencing widespread trash pickup delays, often lasting days and sometimes a week or more, as a result of a labor shortage among waste haulers.” 

The Streets Department Commissioner claimed that the ongoing delays were caused by staff shortages and the increased tonnage from people remaining home due to the pandemic. However, as these problems persist, it is important for all sectors of society to pull together in an attempt to reduce the amount of trash and waste accumulating on our streets and throughout our city. 

 

How Junk King Can Help You Deal with your Accumulated Trash

Here at Junk King of the Greater Philadelphia area, we understand that getting rid of bulky items such as old furniture and appliances can be a difficult and cumbersome ordeal. Not only that but with life returning back to normalcy, not everyone has the time to sort through their unwanted junk, take it to a landfill, or even have time to research how to properly dispose of their unwanted items. We also know that after several days of delayed trash pickup, many people in King of Prussia and the surrounding areas might simply not have a place to safely store their extra trash in a hygienic manner until the dump truck eventually makes the rounds. 

For that reason, we are committed to helping our residential and commercial clients get rid of their excess junk in an extremely easy, efficient, and environmentally friendly manner. When you hire us for any of your junk removal needs, we will do all the heavy lifting and towing. You simply have to let us know where the junk or trash items are located and we will do the rest. Due to the continued COVID-19 pandemic, we also offer no-contact service, meaning that you never have to physically interact with our junk removal technicians.

Furthermore, we are proud to be the “greenest” junk removal company in the region. After several years of operation, our junk removal teams have developed an extensive network of relationships with thrift stores, donation centers, recycling businesses, charities, and others who might be able to take on your old junk, refurbish the items, and thus keep them out of our already over-burdened landfills.

Additionally, we are proud to be able to offer our customers “fair and transparent” pricing, which is one of the hallmarks of our company. Whether you’ve had a pile of unwanted junk in your garage that you’ve been waiting to get rid of, you are just getting around to spring cleaning, you are replacing some living room furniture, or your regular trash service is delayed and you have a collection of trash bags building up in your garage, we are here to offer the most cost effective way to deal with that excess junk. We even offer you four different ways to get a free estimate:

  1. On-Site Pricing Estimate: On-site pricing is the best and most accurate way for us to assess the job and offer you the lowest price. Unlike other companies, our on-site pricing estimates are completely free and come with no obligation on your part. Our junk removal professionals will inspect the junk you need hauled away and offer you an upfront price. If a price is agreed upon, we will often be able to get rid of your car junk on the same day. 
  2. Call to Talk with a Trained Customer Service Representative: If you’d prefer to talk with someone before making a decision, you can call us toll-free at l 888-888-JUNK. Our customer service representatives can offer you a pricing estimate and help you plan the logistics of removing your car junk from your property.
  3. Text us a Photo: Also, you can simply take a photo of your car junk and text us at 737-888-5865. We will promptly text you back a transparent price estimate. Once you accept the estimate, all you have to do is wait for the Junk King truck to arrive.
  4. Online pricing estimator: Lastly, Junk King also offers an easy-to-use online pricing estimator. Simply enter your zip code to ensure that you are in the right service area and provide a few more pieces of information regarding the type and size of the junk you need removed. Our pricing estimator allows you to receive a transparent cost estimate based on either the actual items you need hauled away, or the anticipated volume in the Junk King truck you plan on taking up. The online pricing estimator is convenient, reliable, and time-saving for those on a tight schedule. 

No matter what option you choose, as soon as a price is agreed upon, you choose a date and two-hour service window that works for your schedule. Our junk removal professionals will call you 15-30 minutes before we show up to promptly take your junk away!
