Construction and Demolition Debris in Riverside: What are your Options?

Construction and Demolition Debris in Riverside: What are your Options?

Are you a builder in Riverside, California who struggles to get rid of the construction and demolition (C&D) debris that your construction projects generate? Or perhaps a landscaping business that always struggles with removing the yard junk that some of your clients ask you to get rid of as you renovate their yard? Or maybe you are simply a homeowner who enjoys taking on “do it yourself” home renovation projects on the weekend? No matter what the case might be, dealing with C&D debris can be a headache, especially with the recent increase in state regulations regarding proper disposal techniques for construction and demolition debris. 

For homeowners, construction companies, landscaping professionals, and others who live in Riverside, California, Junk King of Riverside is proud to be the top-rated junk removal company in the southern California region. If the municipal waste management company is giving you a hard time about the C&D debris you want to be hauled away, we can help you with all your C&D debris removal needs. In many cases, we may even be able to haul away your construction and demolition debris on the same day you call us! 

Below, we briefly explain how Junk King of Riverside can help individuals and businesses deal with their C&D debris removal needs in an efficient, affordable, legal, and environmentally friendly way.  

 

Why is Construction and Demolition Debris So Regulated? 

 

Even after a small kitchen renovation, most people will be surprised by the amount of leftover objects, scrap material, and junk items that accumulate throughout the building process. Construction and demolition debris, as is to be expected, is generally heavier, bulkier, and harder to get rid of than other common sources of waste. This is why most municipal waste management companies have strict regulations on how much C&D debris they will haul away and how often they offer this service. In many cases, you may have to break down your C&D debris into smaller (and less heavy) fragments, and even then there will most likely be several items that the garbage company simply will not haul away for you. 

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) states that across the country, over 600 million tons of construction and demolition debris were generated in 2018. That amount is more than double the total amount of generated municipal solid waste (MSW). Of those 600 million tons of C&D debris, demolition represents more than 90 percent of total C&D debris generation, while construction represents less than 10 percent.

On a national scale, the amount of construction and demolition debris is expected to continue to rise on a yearly basis. The combination of a growing population and an aging housing stock is one of the reasons why an estimated 200,000 to 300,000 homes are demolished each and every year in the United States while the projected number of single-family housing units starts in 2023 is estimated to be over 1.2 million

Unfortunately, much of this heavy and bulky construction and demolition waste still ends up in our nation´s already overcrowded landfills. Plywood and gypsum sheets, chunks of broken concrete, broken windows and doors, old roofing materials, and piles of old insulation, despite mostly being recyclable, are often simply taken directly to the nearest dump. Despite the fact that many types of C&D debris generally have a much higher recycling rate than other sources of trash, illegal dumping of C&D debris is reportedly on the rise in many key areas of the country.

What is the Best Way to Get Rid of your Construction and Demolition Debris in Los Angeles? 

 

Hauling leftover plywood sheets and a broken window pane out to the curb will most likely land you a fine from the local city council. Repeat offenders may find that the municipal waste management company even suspends their regular trash pickup. For construction companies, dealing with regular construction waste streams can be one of the most difficult and costly parts of the building process. 

 With Junk King of Los Angeles, however, individuals, homeowners, and builders don’t have to worry about strict regulations and potential fines. After years of working in the community, our team of professional junk haulers has developed an extensive network of relationships with thrift stores, charities, donation centers, recycling businesses, and other similar companies. This allows us to make every possible effort to donate, refurbish, or recycle the junk items that we pick up. In fact, over 60 percent of all the junk items we pick up are either donated or recycled. In the specific case of construction and demolition debris, we work with all major recyclers to ensure that all of your C&D debris is properly recycled, donated, or discarded in a safe and legal manner. 

Furthermore, Junk King´s professional junk removal teams are here to do all of the heavy lifting and hauling for you. We know that cleaning up after a construction project is hard work. For building companies and contractors who are anxious to move on to the next project, you can simply let us know whenever you are done with one building project, and we will promptly show up to haul away your C&D debris. This ensures that you will never have to worry about potential fines or citations, while also not wasting valuable labor costs on cleanup. 

As long as your junk items are not classified as toxic waste, we can most likely help you get rid of those items in a timely and cost effective manner. Junk King offers both residential and commercial junk removal services including business-to-business (B2B) junk removal options for every type of business. We are proud to offer top-rated junk removal services to the Riverside area, including the areas of Bloomington, Colton, Corona, Fontana, Grand Terrace, Jurupa Valley, Loma Linda, March Air Reserve Base, Moreno Valley, Norco, Redlands, Rialto, Riverside, and San Bernardino.

Accumulated Trash

The Top 3 Tips for Dealing with Accumulated Trash in Riverside

Imagine the following scenario: your oldest daughter just turned ten and you decided to throw all financial question to the wind and throw her a birthday party for the ages. After the dozens of kids finally head home and the momentous occasion draws to a close, you take a moment to survey the damage. Rather than a birthday party, your home and yard look like a category 3 hurricane swept through your property. Reluctantly, you call in the cleaning service to help you with the mess but are left with a miniature mountain of empty pizza boxes, wrapping paper, party decorations, and dozens of bags of anonymous trash. On top of that, some overly active children decided to break your favorite recliner, destroy your rose bushes, and do a fair bit of damage to other household items that you accept as necessary casualties for the party to have succeeded. 

Now comes the hard part: how exactly are you supposed to get rid of that enormous amount of trash and junk items before the weekend ends and another long week of work begins? In this short article, we will offer three simple tips for how you can get rid of large volumes of trash in the easiest, most efficient, and most affordable manner. We will also explain why Junk King of Riverside is the absolute best option for Riverside residents who want to get rid of their trash in the fastest, safest, and most environmentally friendly fashion.

 

Tip #1: Do Not Try to Navigate the Strict Policies of Bulky Item Pickup

 

All of the public waste management companies that operate in Riverside offer some sort of bulky item pickup service. In some cases, those bulky item pickup services might be your best option. For example, most of the public garbage companies are fairly efficient at helping you get rid of your Christmas tree once the holidays come to an end. However, if you need to get rid of large amounts of trash in the most efficient and speedy way possible, the public garbage company is most likely not going to be your best alternative. 

The garbage trucks that make weekly rounds through you neighborhood will require you to schedule a bulky item pickup. During busy times of the year, you may have to wait several weeks before a date becomes available. When your scheduled date does come around, you will have to wake up at 4 AM to haul all of your junk items out to the curb before the truck arrives. If you accidentally sleep in, you will have lost your appointment and have to start over again. 

Furthermore, most of the public waste management companies operating in Riverside have strict regulations regarding the type, the size, the weight, and the volume of the bulky junk items you can throw away. For example, most types of household hazardous waste (like unused paint) will not be able to be thrown away. Similarly, the company will likely have strict rules regarding the size and weight of items such as used refrigerators and other appliances that you might need to get rid of. If those items do not conform to the company´s regulations, you will most likely find those items still on the curb, and you may even be subject to a fine.

Tip #2: Prioritize Companies Who Are Willing Able to Do the Heavy Lifting and Hauling for You

 

junk king riverside . junk hauling

 

One of the main purposes of hiring a private junk removal company to help you get rid of your heavy and bulky junk items is to avoid the hassle of carrying extremely heavy items out of your home and yard. Unfortunately, several private junk haulers will either avoid the responsibility that comes with hauling heavy items out to their trucks, or will charge you expensive fees for this service. 

Junk King of Riverside, on the other hand, is able to help you get rid of almost every imaginable junk items you might have laying around your home or business, including regular trash, construction debris, household junk, yard waste, small and medium sized appliances, furniture and virtually anything that is not classified as toxic waste in an environmentally friendly manner. Furthermore, we never charge extra for doing the heavy lifting and hauling.  

We also believe that our top notch customer service is one of the reasons that we are the preferred junk removal company in Riverside and the surrounding region. To hire Junk King of Riverside, you can simply call us for a free quotation or send us a text with photos of the items you need removed. We´ll send you a free quote, and once we have agreed upon a price and a two-hour window for pickup, our professional furniture removal staff will send you a text 15-30 minutes before arrival to let you know we´re on our way. We also offer free, on-site estimates, and will often be able to haul away the junk on the same day you contact us. As we mentioned above, our junk removal teams will do all the heavy hauling, so you simply have to let us know which pieces of junk you want to get rid of and we´ll do the rest! 

 

Tip #3: Look For Companies with a Proven Environmental Ethic

 

Getting rid of bulky junk items that are taking up space in your business or cluttering your home doesn’t have to add to your waste footprint. Here at Junk King of Riverside, we know that our clients have come to appreciate the extra effort we put in to ensure that the majority of the junk items we pick up are kept out of our region´s landfills. Our professional junk removal teams sort through ALL of the junk we pick up to determine what items can be donated, recycled, repurposed, or upcycled.

We have developed several close relationships with dozens of recycling centers, thrift stores, non-profit organizations, and other interested parties to make sure that all your used junk is given every opportunity to be donated or recycled, instead of landfilled. In fact, we are able to recycle, donate, or repurpose around 60 percent of the junk that we pick up, and that number is almost always higher when it comes to e-waste items and other sources of toxic waste. 

Besides offering the most competitive junk removal prices on the market, we can also guarantee to beat any written estimate. As long as your junk items are not classified as toxic waste, we can most likely help you get rid of those items in a timely and cost effective manner. Junk King offers both residential and commercial junk removal service. We offer business to business (B2B) junk removal options for every type of business. We are proud to offer the top-rated junk removal services to the Riverside area, including the areas of Bloomington, Colton, Corona, Fontana, Grand Terrace, Jurupa Valley, Loma Linda, March Air Reserve Base, Moreno Valley, Norco, Redlands, Rialto, Riverside, and San Bernardino.

The Best Way to Deal with Leaves this Fall in Riverside

The Best Way to Deal with Leaves this Fall in Riverside

Did you know that yard waste accounts for over 12 percent of all municipal solid waste (MSW) generated across the United States each year? To put that number into perspective, homeowners across the country could reductively reduce the amount of waste we produce each year by over 35 million tons each year, simply by finding a better way to deal with the leaves that fall, the brush we clear from our property, the grass trimmings we create every time we mow, and other common sources of yard waste.

Fortunately, the total amount of yard waste that ends up in our landfills has been steadily decreasing in recent decades. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), “the decline in yard trimmings generation since 1990 is largely due to state legislation discouraging yard trimmings disposal in landfills, including source reduction measures such as backyard composting and leaving grass trimmings on the yard.”

Here in the state of California, the California organic waste regulations (SB 1383) went into effect on January 1st, 2022. This regulation requires both residents and businesses to recycle their organic sources of waste, including food waste, yard waste, paper, and cardboard.

With the cooler autumn season right around the corner, now is a great time to start thinking about how you are going to deal with your fall leaves. In this short article, we explain why Junk King of Riverside offers the absolutely best service when it comes to dealing with leaves and every other type of yard waste.

Avoid the Hassle of Hauling Bags of Leaves across your Yard

Here at Junk King of Riverside, we will not rake and bag your leaves for you, but we will help you move those heavy, bulky bags of leaves to trucks. With the regular trash service and many other private junk haulers, you will be expected to do all of that heavy lifting and hauling on your own. In fact, if you choose to schedule a bulky junk item pickup with the municipal garbage company, you will also most likely have to wake up at the crack of dawn to ensure that your yard waste is dutifully placed at the end of your driveway before 5 A.m. 

With Junk King, on the other hand, you do not even have to be home when you schedule your yard waste removal with us. If, for example, your local landscaping company left dozens of bags of leaves, brush, and other yard waste piled up throughout your property, just take a few pictures of the items you want removed and send them to us. You can pay online, and set up the most convenient time for us to come and haul away your yard debris. Even if no one is at home during the day, we can come by, pick up, and haul away your leaves and other sources of yard waste so that you come home to a clean and orderly yard.

Professional Rubbish Removal Services

The Benefits of Professional Rubbish Removal Services in Riverside

Here in Riverside, California, we have come a long way in terms of recycling, waste reduction, and landfill diversion. Back in 1989, our City still did not have any sort of municipal recycling operations. Since then, however, we have been one of the “greenest” cities in southern California, and have steadily improved upon our overall waste recycling rate. 

According to a report by Cal Recycle, we were one of the few cities to achieve a 50 percent recycling rate several years before it was mandated by State law several decades ago. As a community, public and private actors together with individual residents continue to find ways and come up with innovative strategies to lower our waste footprint and increase our landfill diversion rate. One of the most effective ways for homeowners, business owners, and other Riverside residents to deal with their waste streams in an environmentally friendly way is by hiring a reputable junk removal company. 

In this short article, we will outline three reasons why Junk King of Riverside is the absolute best option for getting for the most affordable, efficient, and green rubbish removal services in the entire Riverside area.

Reason #1 to Hire Junk King: The Fastest and Most Efficient Junk Removal Services in Riverside  

 

We know that for many of our clients, getting rid of junk items is often a time-sensitive mission. For example, if a small restaurant has recently purchased a completely new set of energy-efficient kitchen appliances and gadgets, you absolutely need to get rid of your old items as quickly as possible. Storing your old kitchen equipment in your parking lot while waiting for the next bulky item pickup date to become available through the municipal waste management company is a surefire way to scare away your potential customers. Similarly, homeowners who are attempting to sell their homes will probably want to get rid of old furniture and other unsightly rubbish laying around the home before your upcoming open house date. 

When you need the quickest and most effective solution for getting rid of any type of junk item in the shortest possible time frame, Junk King of Riverside is going to be your best option, hands down. Unlike other private junk haulers who may have lengthy wait periods, we are often able to pick up the junk items you need to get rid of on the same day that you contact us. 

Furthermore, when you hire us you can also be assured that we will help you get rid of your bulky junk items in the most efficient and resourceful way possible. Our professional junk removal technicians will do all the heavy lifting required for the bulky junk items you may have on your property, in your business, or throughout your home. For elderly clients or for those who don’t have the time, energy, or means to haul heavy junk items out to the curb, this service can be a lifesaver. Simply tell our professional junk-hauling teams what needs to be taken away and where it is located on your property, and we´ll do the rest. 

Our teams can even help you with small-scale disassembly of certain bulky items such as playground sets, heavy hot tubs, and other similar items.

As a private junk removal company, we believe that we have a responsibility in helping to keep Riverside clean and as trash-free as possible.

When you hire Junk King of Riverside for any type of junk removal need, you will be doing your part to help reduce the overall amount of junk that ends up in our already overburdened landfill system. 

Unlike other junk haulers out there, we go the extra mile to sort through EVERY piece of junk that we haul away. This allows us to determine which items are salvageable for donation, which items can be recycled, and which items can be otherwise repurposed. After several years of being the leading junk removal company in Riverside and the surrounding area, we have developed close relationships with dozens of recycling centers, thrift stores, non-profit organizations, and other interested parties to make sure that all your used junk is given every opportunity to be donated or recycled, instead of simply sent to the nearest landfill. In fact, we are able to recycle, donate, or repurpose around 60 percent of the junk that we pick up, and we are always looking for strategies to improve that number. We are able to help our residential and commercial clients get rid of regular trash, construction debris, household junk, yard waste, small and medium-sized appliances, e-waste, furniture, and virtually anything that is not classified as toxic waste in an environmentally friendly manner. 

Furthermore, our company is committed to respecting and abiding by all relevant state laws and local legislation regarding the proper disposal of organic waste, electronic waste, and other recyclable items. 

 

Reason #3: Our Commitment to Transparent Pricing

 

Lastly, when you hire Junk King of Riverside, you will also have the benefit of knowing exactly how much our junk removal service costs. Nobody enjoys hidden charges and “fine print” fees. Because of this, we are dedicated to full transparency and are one of the few junk removal companies that offer free, on-site estimates.  You can also call us for a free quotation or send us a text with photos of the items you need to be removed. We´ll send you a free quote so that you can determine if our services are within your budget. Unlike other junk removal companies out there, you only pay for the actual amount of “stuff” that you need to be hauled away. 

Besides offering the most competitive junk removal prices on the market, we are also proud to say that our customer service is second to none. We have a 5-star rating on Yelp and we can also guarantee to beat any written estimate.

What is Junk Removal and How Does it Work?

 

For many people in Riverside and the surrounding communities in southern California, trash removal simply amounts to dutifully separating your organics and recyclable items, and hauling those bins out to the curb on the designated pickup day. But what about those moments in life when you need to get rid of a large amount of junk that simply can´t be thrown away with your regular trash service? In this short article, we explain how private junk removal works, when it might be a more efficient and affordable option for homeowners, business owners, and other residents of Riverside, and why Junk King of Riverside is the best option out there.

What is Private Junk Removal?

Private junk removal is a type of business in the waste management industry. Whereas most towns and cities hire a large waste management company to offer public trash service, there are often strict restrictions and prohibitions regarding what types of junk items can be picked up and hauled away. For example, most public waste management companies will not haul away your used electronics and appliances due to strict regulations on how electronic waste (e-waste) needs to be dealt with. Furthermore, bulky junk items such as old furniture and large amounts of yard waste are also generally not picked up with your regular waste, but rather require a specially scheduled pickup date.

Private junk removal companies, on the other hand, offer specialized junk removal to individual clients. If you have large, heavy, bulky junk items or large amounts of bags of trash that need to be removed from your home or business, a private junk hauler will come into your home or business and remove them. Whereas you have to haul your junk out to the curb when relying on the public waste management company, many private junk haulers will do all of the heavy lifting and hauling for you. With the best junk removal companies, such as Junk King of Riverside, our junk removal teams can even haul heavy and bulky junk items from hard-to-reach places, such as attics, garages, and crawl spaces.

When Might you Need a Private Junk Removal Service?

Now that you know the major differences between regular garbage pickup and private junk removal, when might it make sense for homeowners, business owners, or other residents of Riverside to hire a private junk hauler? Any time you need to get rid of large, bulky items in the quickest way possible, a private junk removal service is almost always going to be the best option. With the public waste management companies, you will generally have to schedule a bulky item pickup, and that might mean you´ll have to wait several weeks until the next available opening. With Junk King of Riverside, however, we are often able to haul away your bulky junk items on the same day you call us.

Furthermore, if you don’t have the time, energy, or strength to physically haul heavy junk items out to the curb, you might also consider hiring a private junk hauler. As we mentioned above, when you hire Junk King of Riverside, we do all of the heavy lifting and hauling for you, which frees up your time and will protect your back. If you do haul your junk items out to the driveway or curb, we offer even further discounts.

Lastly, people who care about the environment and are looking for ways to quickly reduce their environmental footprint might also consider hiring the greenest junk removal companies, such as Junk King. We offer the greenest junk removal services on the market. When you hire Junk King for any type of junk removal service, you can rest assured that we will go the extra mile to either recycle, donate, or otherwise repurpose the junk items we pick up. Our teams take the time to sort through your junk and find out what can be donated to local charities, what items can be recycled, and what items can be otherwise repurposed and kept out of the local landfill. We are proud to say that at least 60 percent of all the junk items we pick up are kept out of are landfills.

Riverside Junk King vs 1-800-Got-JUNK? (Pros, Cons, and Recommendations)

Here in the United States, the junk removal industry is valued at and incredible $75 billion each year, with junk removal services amounting to $10 billion each year. With the average person in the U.S. producing about 4.5 pounds of waste each day, it is staggering the amount of money we collectively spend to get rid of the junk and waste items that take up space in our homes, businesses, and our lives. Despite efforts to increase our national recycling rate, the junk removal industry is forecasted to continue to grow in the near future. For homeowners, business owners, and other residents of Riverside, California, there are several different companies that offer private junk removal services. In this short article, we compare Junk King of Riverside to 1-800-Got-JUNK, two of the leading private junk haulers in the southern California region. 

Pros and Cons of 1-800-Got-Junk in Riverside

1-800-Got-JUNK was started back in 1989 by an individual person looking to make a little extra money to finance his college education. As of 2022, it had grown to have franchises in 155 different locations across Canada, the United States, and Australia. Like many junk removal companies, the company offers full-service junk removal for homeowners, business owners, and others who are looking for an alternative to the bulky junk item removal offered by the regular trash company. In southern California, the company services several communities in the Inland Empire, including Riverside. 

Pros of 1-800-Got-JUNK in Riverside 

  • The company can haul away most types of junk: 1-800-Got-JUNK can haul away most of the junk items that their customers may have on hand. According to their website: “We can take just about anything, as long as it’s non-hazardous and can be lifted by our two strong crew members.
  • Environmentally responsible disposal: The company also claims that it makes an effort to recycle or donate as many items as possible, though there is limited information about how much of the junk they are able to keep out of the landfill. 
  • Online booking available: The company also offers online booking services. However, they generally do not offer a pricing estimate until the crew is onsite to visually inspect the junk items that are to be hauled away. 

Cons of 1-800-Got-JUNK in Riverside 

  • Limited to items carried by 2 movers: Because 1-800-Got-JUNK only sends out crews of two junk haulers, you will only be able to get rid of items that can be carried by two people. In some cases, the company may not be able to help you get rid of larger and heavier junk items. 
  • May be significantly more expensive than other junk removal companies: Many consumer complaints have criticized the excessively high prices that the company charges. One consumer complaint filed on ConsumerAffairs.com states that she was charged $1,275 for “six large bags of gently used clothes, and sneakers…Christmas tree ornaments in its original packaging, a Christmas tree in the original box, 2 area rugs rolled, and taped, Dish sets including two 24-piece plate settings, 24 Crystal wine glasses, 24 water classes all in boxes, and wrapped for moving to prevent from any breakage.” 
  • Lack of responsibility/cleanliness after the job: Other customer reviews on SiteJabber found that the company routinely left the homes and businesses of their clients in a dirty state after finishing the junk removal job. One customer review states that the haulers “didn’t take everything they were told to & took several things that were to stay. Left a lot of broken glass on the ground outside, never cleaned it up. Stepped in some animal feces & scraped it off INSIDE the house & left it.”
