Cleaning out your home is a big task, especially if you’ve lived there for years. You may have accumulated a lot of stuff without realizing it. If you have a basement, attic, shed, or large garage, it’s very easy to lose track of what you have stored in these locations. You may start cleaning out your garage only to realize you have stuff from several decades ago that’s broken or has never been touched since you stored it. What do you do with all of this? Well, if you want to reclaim the space, you get rid of it. 

That’s where Junk King Irving can help. We’re a full-service junk hauling company that serves Irving and the surrounding areas. We deal with bulk trash, old appliances, furniture, hot tubs, and even things such as old boats and demolished sheds. The next time you need to get rid of some large items or have a lot of trash to deal with, here are some of the reasons why you should work with Junk King Irving.

We Make it Easy

Doing a deep decluttering of your home is different from doing a deep cleaning. With a cleaning, you know you’re dealing with trash and with a lot of physical work. You’re scrubbing, sweeping, vacuuming, and other chores. With decluttering, though, you’re often dealing with decisions. These decisions can be unexpectedly emotional, too, if you have old furniture or items that belonged to family members who are no longer with you. It can be hard to let some of these things go, even if you never plan on using them or don’t even like them. You might have some unexpected emotional attachment to some old chairs, armoires, cabinets, and other items.

You shouldn’t get rid of anything until you’re ready, but you do need to ask yourself why you’re keeping these things. Do you really value the item itself so much, or is it more what it represents? Do you want to see these things slowly deteriorate in the basement? If you need the space, it may be time to let some of these things go, especially if they’re not antiques or unique pieces.

Once you do make that decision, Junk King is here to make the rest of the process easy. We will haul the items out of your home and into our truck. You don’t have to do any of the heavy lifting. We will carefully carry the items out of your home so your floors, door frames, and light fixtures aren’t damaged. Our crew also understands how to lift and carry large, heavy objects. You can easily hurt yourself if you aren’t careful when moving things like refrigerators and large entertainment consoles.

You Don’t Need to Visit the Landfill

Getting bulk trash to the landfill can be a chore. You may not even know where the local landfill is. It could be a considerable drive for you. With the way traffic in and around the DFW area is, you may not want to drive that far with large furniture and other trash in the back of your truck. Then there’s the cost to dump at the landfill. All of this assumes you have access to a truck, too. If you don’t, you may have to borrow one from a friend or even rent one. 

Our trucks are large enough to hold just about anything you might have. They’re 20 percent larger than the trucks most companies use, so we have plenty of space. We can take everything out of your garage, basement, or even your entire house. That’s why many people hire us when they inherit a home that has a lot they don’t want or when they’re helping clean out a hoarder house. We also help landlords clean out rental properties and house flippers clean out homes before they renovate them. 

We deal with transporting all of this trash to the landfill. Any dumping fees are built into our quote, too. You don’t need to worry about getting things back out of your truck at the dump or finding the time to make the drive there. 

It’s Done on Your Schedule

One reason junk tends to hang around is because you can’t always get rid of it when you want to. You may move an old refrigerator out to the garage temporarily until you can put it out for city bulk trash day, but since that doesn’t happen all the time, it can be easy to forget to move it out. Then more stuff gets piled in front of it, and before you know it, that old refrigerator is buried. You may not even be able to see it, so it ends up sitting there for months or even years.

When you call Junk King Irving, we schedule you as soon as we can. There’s no need to wait to get rid of anything. You also don’t have to move any of the junk outside or to your garage, so there’s less of a chance that it will get buried. We will text you when we’re on our way so you’ll know when to expect our crew. We always wear uniforms and carry proper identification, too, so you don’t have to worry that you’re letting strangers into your home.

You Get to Reclaim Your Home

Junk takes up so much space. It can make it impossible to park your car in the garage, find anything in your shed, or make it very difficult to put anything else in your attic or basement. It can even take over your guest room or other space. 

Junk King wants to help you regain that space. Once we’ve come and removed all the trash, you’re left with more room to spread out or for new things. For example, it can be very difficult to get new appliances when you still have the old ones. We’ll sweep in and haul the old ones away so you can install your brand-new refrigerator, oven, cooktop, washer, or dryer. 

We Do More than Just Trash

Is your deck falling apart? Has your shed seen better days? Need to get rid of that old swing set in your backyard? Junk King Irving can haul all of that stuff off, too. We handle DIY construction debris of all types, so you can call us when you decide to redo your flooring, your bathroom, or your entire kitchen. We will haul away all the old stuff along with any packaging and leftover materials you may have. 

In addition to construction debris, we haul off debris of any type. If a storm whips through the area, you may have a lot of tree limbs come down or your fence could come down. When that happens, you’ve got to deal with all this debris before you can even start renovating your backyard. You can’t put in a new fence, for example, unless you get rid of the destroyed fence first. The next time we have a horrible storm in Irving, give us a call and we’ll get your yard cleaned up in no time.

We Don’t Trash Everything

Another reason to work with Junk King Irving is that we don’t send all of your bulk trash to the landfill. So much trash already ends up in the landfill that it’s not going to be sustainable long-term. To that end, we work to reduce the amount of trash we add to the city dump by redirecting items away from it. 

We start by looking at items that are still usable. Do you have a sofa that has a few stains on it but is otherwise sound? We’ll donate it to one of the local organizations we work with. That sofa may go to a homeless shelter, soup kitchen, or other location that needs furniture but has very little resources to buy it. This way, your loved pieces of furniture and still-working appliances can have an extended life while those in need have access to them. 

When we can’t donate something, we will look to see if it can be recycled. Many things like furniture and appliances do have some recyclable materials in them. We’ll remove these materials and add them to anything else that can be recycled. In the end, only around 30 percent or so of what we pick up goes to the landfill. Sometimes it’s much less than that, sometimes a little more, depending on what the items are.
