Moving House – Furniture Removal, Packing Materials and Packing

Moving House - Furniture Removal, Packing Materials and Packing Junk King MarinWhether you’re making the trek across the country or simply having a large portion of your home remodeled, furniture removal will probably be an issue for you.

Oftentimes the remodeling company’s junk removal services simply won’t be adequate enough to allow you to move on with your life.

When you want to save time, money and energy and give yourself more peace of mind during the stressful moving season, consider hiring a junk removal company for furniture removal and other kinds of heavy lifting.

Benefits of a Furniture Removal Company 

Moving from one area to another usually requires the help of a junk removal company, especially when it comes to furniture removal.

Some items – furniture, large appliances, and other hefty pieces of trash – can’t be put into your normal trash. In fact, large pieces of furniture might require a permit or long drive to a landfill just to get it off your hands.

There’s also this practical reality – when you’re getting ready to move and finally have all of your belongings packed up and ready to go, the last thing that you want to hold you back is junk removal.

Hiring a junk removal company for a one-off pickup of all of your refuse can save you the time, money and the energy of having to make all of the arrangements yourself. A junk removal company can remove old furniture, battered appliances, mattresses and various kinds of yard waste.

Although a junk removal company can take away any refuse that you need off of your property, making sure to bundle your fragile materials and use quilted furniture pads where electronics are concerned can also significantly reduce your moving hassle.

Furniture Removal Enables a Smooth Transition 

Since you probably don’t have a vehicle that can quickly transport a used mattress, broken air conditioner and cumbersome pieces of furniture, getting help for a respected junk removal company that has your (and the environment’s) best interest at heart is the way to go.

A professional junk removal company has a fleet of vehicles designed specifically for hauling away large articles of refuse. Having a fleet of insured vehicles also gives you far greater peace of mind than would be the case if you had to, for instance, tie a mattress down onto your roof and get onto the highway.

Just make sure that when you do move you leave the heavy lifting to the junk removal company. Here’s another tip: Try putting lighter, more durable items (e.g., pillows) into large boxes and heavier, perhaps more fragile items (e.g., books) in smaller boxes. This can save you a ton of hassle before, during and after your move.

Going with a Professional 

Professional junk removal should be a serious consideration since immediate junk removal works on your schedule and on-site quotes are absolutely free.

Whether you need professional help for furniture removal or the removal of old appliances, mattresses, or other kinds of non-hazardous waste, a professional trash removal company is there to make your transition that much smoother.

A quote without obligations and instant on-site pickup is simply a win-win. Prompt and affordable five-star service can ensure that you have the perfect move.

Bring Your Junk To The Dump Vs. Hiring A Junk Removal Company

Bring Your Junk To The Dump Vs. Hiring A Junk Removal Company Junk King MarinIf you’re planning on visiting the local landfill to get rid of your unwanted appliances, chances are you may be in for a shock when you see how many recyclables are needlessly being dumped and buried.  When dealing with the DIY junk removal process, how will you know which items are unusable as opposed to which ones are worthy of refurbishing? While answers may vary, the main issue here is whether or not you should do this yourself or have a junk removal company come in and take care of the dirty work for you. The advantages and drawbacks listed below may help you make up your mind before making a decision.

DIY Junk Removal Expenses

The word expense isn’t entirely based on how much cash it’ll cost you haul your unwanted items away, yet it may be factored in heavily when deciding how to proceed. First off, having a vehicle big enough to get the job done is a crucial aspect, especially if you have to make more than one trip. Local landfills charge by the individual load; two trips will amount to twice the dumping fee, which also means spending more money on gas.

Aside from the money involved with DIY junk removal, other valuable commodities such as precious time and physical labor will enter the fold. Plan on spending at least half of the day loading and unloading and putting some extra wear and tear on your vehicle. With heavier items in particular, the physical strain of frequent lifting may also take its toll.

Junk Removal and the Trash-Treasure Principal

Truth be told; the junk removal business is mostly a numbers game for most refuse management companies. They’ll end up charging you a hefty fee and move onto the next customer as quickly as possible. Sorting through reusable items is less cost effective than outright dumping, which is a shameful practice by itself. When lining their pockets becomes more important than either recycling or donating salvageable items to people in need, it’s a little easier to see how the game is being played. If one person’s trash is another person’s treasure, needlessly dumping and burying said items can be considered not only wasteful, but immoral as well. It’s also important to  know that not all junk removal operations conduct their business this way; some actually care about what they’re doing to help charitable causes while being environmentally sound as an added bonus.

Junk-King to the Rescue

The folks at Junk-King approach the environment and humanitarian work in a more serious manner. They’ll actually sort through your discarded wares and determine whether or not these items can be used elsewhere, but also recycle the ones that would eventually end up at the city dump, thus putting a completely different spin on the junk removal process.

Junk-King’s business model focuses upon hauling the least amount of actual refuse to landfills and disperses the remaining items to places where they’ll be appreciated the most. Appliances in need of minor repairs are handled accordingly and redistributed to a number of charitable organizations in the area. Those who may not be able to afford the cost of a new refrigerator, washer and dryer, sofa, or any other bulky appliance can rest a little easier knowing that the staff at Junk-King has their best interests at heart.

 The cost of junk removal can be handled in one of three ways. You can take it upon yourself to do the dirty work, hire some random company to dump it at the nearest landfill, or you can hire Junk-King to take care of things responsibly.

Furniture Removal – Ways to Deal With Large Trash

Furniture Removal - Ways to Deal With Large Trash Junk King MarinWhether you’re downsizing, moving long distance, or combining households, if you have furniture you aren’t using anymore, figuring out how to get rid of it can be daunting. That doesn’t have to be the case. With the right information, getting unwanted furniture out of your way and out of your life.

Dos and Don’ts When it Comes to Furniture Removal:

Do: Donate Furniture in Good Condition

As the old saying goes, the poor are always with us. Many people who have lost homes to disasters, are fleeing abusive relationships, or are in otherwise difficult situations don’t have the financial resources to invest in even basic furnishings. Your old, unwanted (but still in good condition) items can help them achieve a decent quality of life. Donating to a charity or charity-run thrift store can also get you a donation credit, which can save you money on your taxes.

Do: Check if Your Community Has Large-Waste Pickup

Many municipalities have large-waste pickup days, which allow you a convenient way to dispose of unwanted large furniture. This may be the best option if you only have a few pieces to dispose of. However, there are some drawbacks. Community waste disposal may charge more than you want to pay for furniture removal, or may make a mess while loading your unwanted items into a standard garbage pickup truck (as large items can sometimes knock smaller pieces of trash out of the truck).

Do: Follow Hazardous Waste Disposal Rules

Though most furniture removal poses no threat to human health or the environment, some items may require special precautions. The chemical refrigerants contained inside most consumer-grade refrigerator coils, for example, are toxic and can easily contaminate the water table. California has some of the strictest health and environmental regulations in the country; disposes of hazardous waste in an improper manner can mean significant fines and even jail time. Save yourself and the planet some stress and follow the rules.

Don’t: Just Dump Your Stuff On the Curb or In a Dumpster

Most communities, including those in Marin County, have laws regarding proper furniture removal, and most private companies that serve the dumpsters at apartment complexes and public facilities have rules regarding dumping. Don’t be tempted to try DIY furniture removal using your curb or someone else’s dumpster. To do so may well be illegal and can cost you far more in fines than paying for proper, professional furniture removal would cost you.

Don’t: Donate Items From Smoking Homes

Many people searching for deals on furniture have health problems, including asthma and allergies. Even being around items removed from homes where people smoke can cause a reaction. You don’t want to be responsible for putting someone else’s health at risk. Also be aware that pets often have issues being around items that smell of cigarette smoke; dogs and cats have very sensitive noses, use scents to make sense of their world, and can suffer stress or health problems if exposed to persistent odors they aren’t familiar with or simply don’t like.

Don’t: Harm Yourself Lifting Your Furniture

Finally, don’t do DIY furniture removal if you have any back, leg, or other health problems that affect your ability to lift. Lifting heavy furniture can exacerbate (or sometimes even cause) serious back problems like slipped disks. Given how much health care costs in the current economy, DIY furniture removal isn’t worth it. What you save on a furniture removal service you’ll end up spending at the doctor.

Junk Removal For Garage Sales

Junk Removal For Garage Sales Junk King MarinHolding a garage sale is a great way to get rid of most your useless junk, and walk away with a wad of cash in the process. What’s more, a running a garage sale is super easy — all you need to do is put together a couple of cheap cardboard signs and scatter all of your junk all around the front yard. Then, you can just sit back, relax and wait until a passerby to ask you about that old table that has been sitting in the basement for the past three or four years.

All of that is pretty awesome, but if you’re like most people, you have probably hoarded away enough stuff to decorate almost an entire house, so you probably won’t sell every last piece of junk that you lay out on your front yard. So what do you do with everything after your garage sale is officially over? The answer to this question is simple: hire a professional junk removal service. Here is why you should go with a pro for your post-garage sale junk removal:

With junk removal, you don’t have to keep your junk

You’re hosting a garage sale to get rid of your junk, and you shouldn’t be forced to toss whatever is left over back into your garage, attic or basement. Junk removal service ensures that this won’t happen, because your leftover junk will end up somewhere else.

You don’t have to worry about any curious thieves wandering onto your property

Even junk can be tempting for a thief. If yours sits out, then a thief could invade your property, creating a dangerous situation, so junk removal is a must to avoid this problem.

Why you shouldn’t handle your junk removal yourself

You don’t have as big of a clean up job after your garage sale is over

It may have been easy to scatter all of your junk around the yard, but cleaning it up won;t be so easy — unless you decide to work with a professional junk removal service. They will do most of the cleanup work for you.

You don’t have to figure out where all of your junk is supposed to go

If you decide to get rid of your extra junk, you have to figure out where you can legally dump it. For this, different materials have different rules, so you will have to call all around town to see if there is even anywhere that will accept your junk at all.. A pro junk removal service makes this a non-factor, because they already know where to take everything.

You don’t have to throw your back out trying to lift your heavier junk

Furniture, older TVs and other types of weighty junk is difficult to carry. Not only is it heavy, but it is awkwardly built, so trying to move it around can be dangerous. While trying to move heavy stuff around, you can drop something on your foot, pull a muscle, hurt your shoulders or throw out your back. Junk removal pros can take this out of the equation as well.

You don’t have to spend all day trying to get all of your junk across town

Even after you’ve figured out where to put it and loaded it up, you still have to get your old stuff there — if a pro junk removal service isn’t doing the grunt work for you.

Dump your extra junk after you’ve sold the good stuff

Make your useless junk a non-factor by hiring a professional junk removal service. To learn more, contact Junk King, America’s Greenest junk removal service.
