Trash Facts and Trash Hauling with Junk King Gwinnett County
Trash is the one factor that connects all humans across the globe, from the streets of New York to the tourist-ridden plains of Africa. It seems that this ever-present factor of our modern lives will, at some point, culminate in either a pile too large to handle individually (perhaps with a room filled to the ceiling with junk) or a situation too big to take care of alone (perhaps in the case of a renovation or a hoard). Cases like this are common in older neighborhoods and suburban areas, where there is space and privacy that allows for the accumulation of trash and junk.
Of course, these types of situations have been largely attributed to cases of mental illness thanks to shows like Hoarders and Hoarders: Buried Alive. In real life though, it is not just people like hoarders who benefit from assistance from removal services like Junk King. In fact, most of the time removal services are called for non-hoard removals or for special roll-away dumpsters. Additionally, it’s now considered standard to order a roll-away dumpster for residential homes at least two times a year for the seasonal cleanings, while businesses often benefit from having roll-away dumpsters at their disposal permanently or every two months, depending on their production, goods, and wastes.
A byproduct of having trash be a part of everyone’s lives means that we have developed particular types of waste, all of which have special needs with regard to removals of those wastes. There are five types of wastes; these types include liquid waste, solid trash, organic waste, recyclable trash, and hazardous waste.
- Liquid wastes can come from a variety of sources, though they are mostly produced by residential homes, commercial businesses, and factories; natural rainwater is also considered a liquid waste, just a different type from something like leftover detergent from a factory.
- Solid trash is normally produced by residential and commercial locals. These include everything from plastics to paper, metals to glass. These are also not things that can be recycled or are difficult to reuse; consider broken plates or mirrors or newspapers.
- Organic waste is most commonly produced by residential homes. These involve anything that can be considered organic to begin with, so foods, gardening waste, or animal waste falls in this category.
- Recyclable waste, then, are that solid trash that can be recycled or reused. This type of waste is attributable to all forms of residential, business, and factory producers. Most furniture and construction materials are considered recyclable wastes.
- Lastly, hazardous wastes are all wastes that can harm the environment or life in general. Wastes in this sense, refer to anything toxic, flammable, corrosive, or reactive. Batteries, paints, even electronic trash is considered hazardous by most standards.
There are many ways to dispose of each of these wastes, including the stereotypical landfill, recycling, vermicomposting, incineration, or ocean disposals. Junk King is your best option for removing all solid trash, organic trash, or recyclables. Our experts are trained to remove trash efficiently, but they are also trained on how to site and remove pieces that can be recycled or reused before sending them to the landfill. Junk King is North America’s best and greenest junk removal service, committed to getting over 60% of recyclables in every dumpster load. That means, not only are you removing junk in the fastest way possible, you’re also helping lower the environmental impact at the same time.
Trash Produced in One Year and How Junk King Gwinnett County Will Help
People produce a lot of waste; for example, the average person throws out 72.99 pounds of plastic trash each year. Of those, only about 9% of these plastics are recycled by them that same year. Hundreds of pounds of other wastes are also made by every individual every year. Mainstream trash removal like the weekly garbage truck will end up taking most of these thousands of pounds straight to the local landfill. Further, these trash trucks are not equipped to be able to deal with anything larger, heavier, or anything fully recyclable (that’s why there has been a rise in recycle-only trash cans). So, if your furniture breaks, or if your home suffers through a disaster and it’s time to clean up—your first thought may be to break everything down and put it all in garbage bags.
This doesn’t work for a variety of reasons, including the fact that those garbage bags are typically opened; whatever is in them can’t typically be processed by the machines, so they are removed and thrown away separately from the other garbage. That’s assuming that they get passed the garbage men on the truck in the first place. If they don’t get passed the garbage men, most people will then take a trip to the local landfill themselves; but, the local public access landfill costs money, and they don’t typically take things like appliances, furniture, or e-wastes.
This is where Junk King comes in; there are two main services that can be utilized by the residential owner. The first service we offer is that of a MINI roll-away dumpster, this is also called our self-service option. We bring one of our beautiful red MINIs to your home, park it in your driveway (yes, the MINI really is that mini), and you keep it for three days minimum. Doing it like this means you’ll have more than enough time to get everything out, the space to get it all out, and the best part: all you have to do is pay and you’ll never see the trash again.
In comparison, you could instead order our full-service option. For this, all you need to do is point, and the trash is gone. This service consists of a team of our expert junk haulers and a truck so that you can maximize the time our team is there—and get rid of those large or heavy pieces of furniture, appliances, or even mattresses and e-wastes. Picking this version means that you don’t have the multiple days that you would have with doing the self-service option, but instead, you would have multiple (strong) hands helping you get everything cleaned up.
The great thing about Junk King is that no matter what service you pick—Junk King is committed to recycling 60% of all the loads we receive, so you can rest easy that everything that can be recycled, is being recycled. Further, since we also take e-wastes, you can feel secure in the knowledge that those toxins aren’t being distributed into the local environment. Further, no matter what service you choose, you only ever pay for the space that is taken up in the dumpster or truck; that means that if you order a MINI, but only use the back half of it, you only pay for that back half. This gives you the best price possible, every time.
