Capitola Junk Removal

You know a city is serious about their beaches when they provide a live surf-cam throughout the day. It’s just one of the many ways that Capitola takes care of its residents and visitors. Apparently, what the city elders and developers are doing is working. Recently, Capitola was named one of Sunset Magazine’s “best beach towns.”

Got Junk Items in the Santa Cruz?

A Santa Cruz couple found a unique way to celebrate their recent wedding. Instead of throwing a big reception, they brought their wedding party to the Davenport Main Beach and set about to clean up the shores. The couple teamed up with the Santa Cruz-based Save Our Shores organization which sponsors groups to do weekly cleanups at the beach. This is a big issue because of all the careless campers who spend the weekend enjoying the great outdoors then leave all their trash behind. On this special day, the wedding party hit the trail leading to the beach with buckets and metal grabbers. After a just a couple of hours they managed to collect 104 pounds of trash and 77 pounds of recyclables. Not bad a bad way to celebrate a marriage.

 

If you’ve got junk in Santa Cruz then maybe you want to surprise your spouse with a cleanup. That can happen when you call Junk King Monterey and set up a removal appointment. As a couple you both probably agree on what you would like to have removed from your home. These would be the big objects that take at least a pair of movers and a truck to get the job done. Because of all that extra effort, those objects have probably stayed where they’re at for a long time. One call to Junk King can have all that stuff gone in a day. Imagine the surprised look on your partner’s face when they come home to find all that junk gone!

 

Just because you’ve got junk doesn’t mean you have to hold onto it for the rest of your life. Too often we bring our junk with us from move to move. Wouldn’t it be nice to finally toss it out? Instead of keeping your garage and closets cluttered, why not hire Junk King for a removal appointment?

 

In terms of cost, Junk King Monterey has an offer you can’t refuse. They’re going to charge you based on the amount of space your junk will be taking up on the back of their truck. Since they want to fill up that truck every day, they’re going to make sure they pack everything in tight. This means you’re going to be getting a good deal if you’re throwing out a little or a lot! That includes all your e-waste like computers, printers and fax machines that you’ve replaced. It can all be tossed onto the back of the Junk King truck where you can wave good-bye once and for all. If you’ve got junk, then Junk King is the only call to make.

New Year’s Resolution 2013 Junk King Monterey California

If you want proof of the power of the New Year’s resolution check out your neighborhood gym. You’ll find that memberships have spiked as they always do in January and February. Everyone makes a resolution to lose weight and get into shape. Check back in June and see how many folks are still at it! A New Year’s resolution doesn’t just have to be about personal physical improvement. You could also make a resolution about your living environment. A terrific resolution would be to finally clear out all that clutter.

Whether it’s in a spare room, closet, garage or attic you’ve probably done a good job of collecting mountains of useless things. Sure these items have a purpose at one time otherwise you never would have brought them into your home. But know they’re just in the way. To honor this clutter free resolution you should conduct a room-by-room survey. Take along a roll of stickers or stack of Post-It notes. Every item you see that you want to get rid of, slap a sticker on it. If you’re sharing the house with family or roommates give them a chance to “dispute” the sticker because you don’t want to get caught in a situation where you’re throwing out something you shouldn’t.

You might find a lot of “loose” items that you want to keep such as DVDs, CDs or video games. If so find a storage bin for them. Either on a shelf or in a decorative basket. If you have items on kitchen counters or tables that aren’t being used get rid of them. The idea is to contain your loose items and not have them scattered all over the house. That’s what creates clutter.

Naturally, you don’t want to just sweep everything into a closet, cabinet or drawer. Really think about getting rid of the useless stuff. All the busted sporting equipment, appliances you’ve replaced or outdated computers should be gotten rid of. You want to make room for the important items.

If this seems like a resolution that is too overwhelming it doesn’t have to be that way. Junk King Monterey can be your resolution partner by providing the manpower and truck space to take away just about anything you want to get rid of in your home or yard. Junk King has already taken away such diverse items as pool tables, pianos, hot tubs, fenders and complete rooms full of rain soaked furniture. Working with Junk King Monterey will have you honoring your clutter free resolution in less time than it would take for a strenuous workout. You can’t beat that!

Do You Really Know What Junk Is In Your Monterey Home?

Hands down, Monterey has some of the best examples of historic homes in the entire state. You don’t have to take our word for it; you can see for yourself. Many of these historic homes are open for tours. For instance, the Casa Serrano Adobe is one of Monterey’s oldest adobe structures which dates all the way back to 1843. The home is furnished with many fine examples of local artwork and Spanish, Mexican and early American antiques. There are also garden tours that set out from the Case del Oro Memory Garden at Pacific and Scott. This time of the year, the gardens are decorated with holiday flair.

Now supposed you were going to open up your home for a tour today. Would you be ready? Yes, you might have already put up the holiday decorations to give your place a festive look but there might be some glaring items that stick out like a sore thumb. We’re not talking about those outrageous Christmas sweaters you get as gifts but all the junk you’re holding onto. You can define a piece of junk as any item which makes you say, “I’ve got to get rid of that one of these days.” The good news is that “one of these days” can be today if you call Junk King Monterey.

Junk King is the Monterey based local business who is helping keep a lot of homes junk free no matter how old or historic they might be. They do this by giving homeowners the ability to work with a two-man crew who will be doing all the heavy lifting. That crew has their own truck for the loading of your junk. Right off the bat, those are probably the two big items which have kept you from getting rid of that junk in the first place: muscle and truck space. Junk King has you covered.

The other good thing about hiring Junk King Monterey is that they’re going to make sure your junk is properly disposed of. Monterey is a beautiful town that doesn’t deserve to have junk dumped anywhere. Junk King is dedicated to maintaining eco-friendly policies which are all about diverting collected debris into recycling facilities as opposed to landfills. That’s going to be very good for Monterey and for your own desire to stay green.

And you don’t have to worry about what you want taken away. No item is too heavy or too oversized for the Junk King crew. They’ve taken away pianos, hot tubs, car engines, patio furniture and backyard grills. If you want it gone, all you’ve got to do is call Junk King!

Home Downsizing Tips in Monterey Bay

According to a U.S. Census report the average single-family home had 2,469 square feet. That’s up by about 769 square feet from just two decades earlier. In fact, Americans live in much larger homes that most people do in other countries throughout the world. These bigger homes work best with big families but once the kids are grown up and moved on do you really need all that space? Many families who once embraced all that living space are now looking to downsize to make their lives more manageable. This holds true especially for retirees who don’t want to spend their golden years mowing acres of yard or doing all the other things around the home they spent a lifetime doing. This is when you should be relaxing not cleaning out the gutters all worried about replacing your water heater!

If you’re serious about downsizing then clearly you’ll be looking to move into a smaller place. This can actually be a great benefit especially if you find a new home which is chock full of amenities. There are many great communities around Monterey Bay that are like cloistered neighborhoods complete with private pools, tennis courts and community centers. These aren’t necessarily retirement villages but more like plant communities where quality of life is at a premium. The homes of these types of communities run the gambit between one or two bedrooms and open loft spaces. For you to fit your life into one of those new comfortable arrangements you might have to get rid of a lot of junk. Have no fear because Junk King Monterey is standing by to help.

In the short time that Junk King has been in operation in the Monterey Bay they’ve made quite an impression on the locals. That’s because of their dedication to courteous service with regard to junk removal. Junk King is part of a national franchise which means they have their own set of standards they need to live up to. And since their business is built on word of mouth you can bet that they’ll treat every job as if it’s the only job they’ll ever have!

What you’ll have to do is identify those things in your home that you need to toss out. Basically this is everything you won’t be taking with you to your new place. Once those items have been determined give Junk King a call to set up a free consultation. A Junk King supervisor will take a look at what you have to get rid of and make an estimate for the cost. This estimate is based on the amount of truck space you’ll be using not an hourly rate for the workers. Once you get rid of all this junk you’ll have a better sense of just how much space you’ll need. As with most folks who’ve already downsize you’ll soon discover that sometimes smaller is better!

Monterey Refrigerator Disposal

Over at the official website of the city of Monterey, they provide some helpful information about getting rid of bulky items. Basically, you’re told that to get rid of something that won’t fit into your weekly garbage can pick up you can call for an appointment with the city. You need to tell them 24 hours in advance of your regular pickup. Then, and here is the catch, you’ve got to drag that item out to your curb and hope for the best. “Hope” is indeed involved with this process because as it clearly states on the website “For numerous items Athens Services might require more than one pick-up day for removal.” To demonstrate this point, the website features a photograph of a hideous pink sofa someone has dragged out to their curb waiting for a pick-up. By the looks of this sofa, it wouldn’t be surprising even if the garbage collectors drive on past.

Now put yourself in the place of that pink sofa. First of all, if you had a really bulky item like an old refrigerator would you even be able to drag it out to the curb? Probably not without a couple of strong backs and the right moving equipment. Then what happens if they don’t have room on their truck. Well, they say they’ll provide you with “further instructions.” Sounds rather ominous. What this means is that you’ll have to wait until the following week when they can bring a bigger truck to haul off your fridge. Congratulations. Now you have an old refrigerator sitting in front of your house attracting all kinds of unwelcomed “guests.” You better have the door taken off the fridge or wrap it in chains and a padlock. That’s the state law for abandoned refrigerators on your property. Without those precautions you could be slapped with a severe fine. There has to be a better way.

Actually, there is a better way and it puts you in complete charge. You can hire a team of professional junk haulers like Junk King Monterey to remove your old refrigerator or any other bulky item. The big difference is that these movers will be working on your schedule, not the other way around. If you want to get rid of something on a Monday then that’s when you schedule the appointment. If it has to wait until the weekend or after dinner, so be it! Also, you won’t have to move this item one inch. Not to the curb. Not to your front door. Junk King will be handling that task. The only lifting you’ll do is with your finger to point to the item you want taken away.

Because you’re hiring these professionals at Junk King Monterey, they are working for you which means if you have more junk to load up on this removal day then all the better! Take this opportunity to finely get rid of all those useless items that have been taking up space in your life. Don’t wait for the city to do your clean up… do it yourself with the help of Junk King Monterey.
