The Best Junk Removal Services in Buford, Georgia Why You Should Hire a Professional Junk Removal Company The average person throws away over 187.77 pounds of corrugated boxes a year; a combined 24.75 pounds of glass wine and liquor bottles and miscellaneous glass jars and bottles; 17.77 pounds of plastic bottles, with a further 6.75 pounds of plastic plates and cups; 220.96 pounds of food waste; 91.53 pounds for yard debris; and 854.20 pounds for wood waste. All of the waste that the average person produces cannot realistically be removed on a week-by-week basis, despite the best efforts put forth by Waste Management. Society’s insistence on ‘bigger is better’ has become a consumer’s paradise while also becoming a greatly wasteful practice for the normal person. Even weekly pickup services are aware that their once—or if you’re lucky twice—a week pickups are not enough to remove every person’s trash and junk removal needs; this is why they offer bulk item pickup in Gwinnett County, GA, and all across Atlanta proper. However, there are only a set amount of pickups available for the Atlanta resident, and they come along with strict rules due to the city’s own limitations. So, they then offer a set amount of landfill drop-offs for the Atlanta resident—these also come with strict limitations in terms of both items they’ll take and weight issues. Violating any of the aforementioned rules for bulk item pickup or a landfill drop-off will result in hefty fines. Pricing for junk removal from Junk King works differently than the competitors, in that with Junk King removals the price you pay is directly decided based on the amount of space you use in the dumpster or truck—you only pay for the space you use. Generally, this means that the prices for Junk King services vary depending on the type of service that you choose. For our MINI dumpster service, your rates start as low as $60, while a full-service removal crew can cost as high as $600. Therefore, your range of cost for removals may end up being slightly higher than that of your other removal option. This is for two reasons: Junk King’s removal vehicles are on average 20% larger than the competitors at the same cost—this means that you are actually paying less than what others would end up charging you for the same-size option. Additionally, the cost of junk removal doesn’t need to, and shouldn’t burn a hole in your wallet—that’s why Junk King also promises to beat any written estimate. Junk King’s prices are partially reflective of the green movement initiatives that the company was founded on, in 2005. Not every removal company in North America can accept literally anything (except for hazardous waste)—and part of that ability comes from the necessary time it takes after each haul to make sure that the right materials are being used in the right way, sent to the right place, or appropriately broken down and shipped to the right facilities. What’s the Difference between a Dumpster and a Junk Removal Service? What comes to mind when you think of a dumpster or a junk removal service? For most people, the immediate thoughts would be similar to what we’ve seen in media: burly men in back braces, lifting furniture, a dirty dumpster on the street, a disgruntled neighbor frowning from their kitchen window. This rendition of dumpsters and removal services is only partly true, as there is sometimes furniture that is lifted, and professionals take all necessary precautions like wearing back braces. However, not all dumpster services are actually huge, dirty, ugly dumpsters—and by extension, not all removal services are a nuisance in the neighborhood. Dumpster services are typically residential—this being only because commercial options allow for more flexibility and thus more utility—composed of a particular size or type of dumpster that has been rented for a period of time, usually in 3-5-7 day formats, but they can also sometimes be rented for weeks at a time. There is also a difference between dumpster vs. trash can services, in that dumpsters can only be as small as 10-cubic yards (unless you are the Waste Management option, at 8-cubic yards but made of fabric instead of steel). In comparison, a junk removal service is composed of a (hopefully) large junk removal truck, and a two-person crew of professional removers (although it is standard for large jobs to require multiple trucks and/or crew people to man them). These professional removers go about their job in distinct ways, as to maintain company standards. Due to this, some removal services have national abilities for customer service and options, whereas smaller companies do not have these abilities. All of this goes to say, that there are actually two distinct (but sometimes overlapping) industries, one of the dumpster rentals, and the other of professional removal services. Often, when people hire small business companies, they can only offer one of these services—because they would require additional licensing and equipment to do both jobs. This is one of the things that sets Junk King apart from the rest of the options in the area; Junk King provides both a dumpster service, called ‘self-service’ and includes a 12-cubic yard dumpster called a MINI and a removal service, called ‘full-service’ and it includes a Big Red Truck, large enough to hold 6 pickup beds worth of junk and a two-person removal team. How to Prepare for Your Next Removal Job If you are thinking about renting a dumpster for a few days or a removal job, make sure to consider the following before you hire anyone: Make sure you get estimates—this is the only way you will have a record of what certain people have promised you (and Junk King will beat any written offer). Make sure you know about the aftercare they offer—Junk King is known for our green stance, but we are also known for unsurpassed customer service, especially in the cleaning time in the after-removal period. Make sure you are comfortable with what they do with your junk after they leave—there are some removal services that will take your junk and toss it in the nearest landfill before driving the dumpster out to the next client (ew, by the way, they should clean that). Junk King, however, tries to recycle everything they possibly can, so you don’t have to worry about the environmental impact of any of the junk or trash that gets hauled away.
