Junk Removal San Diego Downtown

Residential Junk Removal

Items We Take – Residential Items

Throwing out the trash is easy, especially if you have bins from your municipal garbage collection company. But getting rid of large junk items is a bit more challenging. If it doesn’t fit in the bin, you can’t leave it on the curb.

So, what do you do with it?

It’s a junk removal problem faced by homeowners and renters all over the San Diego area. In cities like Imperial Beach, Chula Vista, National City, Coronado, and downtown San Diego, people often find themselves needing to get rid of large, unwanted items.

Not to worry, however, because there’s good news! Junk King San Diego Downtown can take just about every type of residential junk item you can think of – including those large junk items you couldn’t shove into your curbside bins.

We can come to your home and quickly and efficiently haul away old appliances, furniture, piles of broken toys, and pretty much any other junk items. In fact, we take just about everything and anything you want to get rid of! (Except hazardous waste.)

By now you’re probably wondering what types of things we take. Here’s a quick overview for you.

Appliance Removal

What types of appliances can we remove for you? Here’s a short list of items we can take:

• Air Conditioners
• Dishwashers/Trash Compactors
• Refrigerators/Freezers
• Lawnmowers
• Stoves/Ovens/Microwaves
• Water Heaters
• Washing Machines/Dryers

Have you ever tried to find a good way to get rid of an old appliance? Most people assume it should go to the city or county dump. But most large junk items that you might think need to be disposed of in a landfill can, in fact, be recycled.

For example, all your old household appliances are typically made of recyclable materials such as steel, aluminum, glass, and plastics. In fact, almost all appliances can be recycled. That’s why when you call Junk King San Diego Downtown, we’ll see to it that as many of your junk appliances as possible are recycled. And this includes refrigerators, freezers, and even air conditioning units!

Television Disposal & Recycling

With all the new and bigger flat screen TVs sold every year, millions of Americans are getting rid of their old televisions at a growing rate. It’s estimated that we buy close to 40 million new TVs annually. This means that there are potentially millions of “old” screens that will be passed on or thrown away.

The problem is how to properly dispose of that old television that doesn’t work, or you no longer want?

The easiest option is to call Junk King San Diego Downtown for your broken television disposal or old tv removal. And this includes those old computer monitors, old CRT televisions, or large flat screen units you still have sitting around the house. Junk King offers an efficient, safe, and eco-friendly TV disposal service that makes the whole process simple for you.

Furniture Removal and Disposal

We understand that getting rid of old furniture can be difficult, like when you’re moving, for example. That’s why we’re ready to help! Here are some examples of the furniture we can pick up from you:

Of course, most furniture is heavy, bulky, and usually awkward to pick up and move. And, when you finally get these pieces out of your house, there’s still the problem of what to do with them.

But with Junk King San Diego Downtown, hauling away your old furniture becomes a piece of cake! And, in addition to letting someone else do all the hard work of lifting and loading, you’re helping the environment as we work just as hard to recycle your old furniture.

That means reducing overall waste and keeping your old furniture items out of the landfill.

Cardboard Recycling

The process of cardboard recycling is a tedious task for individuals, but Junk King makes it easy.

How does Cardboard Recycling Work in Chula Vista, Coronado, Imperial Beach, and National City?

Ever since the “Eco-Friendly Cardboard Recycling” initiative was put in place in Chula Vista, Coronado, Imperial Beach, and National City, there has been a reduction in the amount of cardboard collected and put into landfills. This is where we come in at Junk King. We collect and recycle all of this cardboard, and recycle it responsibly so that it can be reused, thereby eliminating waste and saving the environment.

Recycling cardboard is essential for creating a sustainable environment. When you recycle your cardboard you are not only helping the environment but also saving money, time and energy as well as lowering your carbon footprint.

There are many ways to recycle cardboard.

You can use the cardboard as mulch, insulation, or fuel. You can also recycle it by making new products like clocks, pens, and much more.

The next time you have piles of old Amazon boxes laying around, call Junk King to come pick up the mess.

Junk King is a junk pickup service that will come to your home or office and load up the old boxes, furniture, clothing, and appliances that you no longer need. Junk King will then take the unwanted items to a recycling center or charity.

Yard Waste Removal

For homeowners, and those who rent homes with yards, lawn and landscape maintenance is a big part of keeping up your home. But, along with everything else that has to be taken care of at your house, letting your yard areas go neglected is easy to do.

We get it!

There’s much more to do than simply mowing the grass every so often if you want to make the most of your lawns and landscaping. Like cleaning and hauling all the yard waste and debris.

For many Chula Vista, Coronado, Imperial Beach, and National City residents, the back porch and yard are perfect places to have parties, barbeques, and other fun outdoor get-togethers. Whenever the weather is nice – which is most of the year here in San Diego, of course – you can easily host parties outside instead of having all those people roaming around in the house.

And, during the summer especially, your yard can be a great place for your family and friends to gather. However, neglected piles of yard waste and landscaping debris can not only make the backyard an eyesore, but it also can get in the way of pulling off a great outdoor party.

The good news is that you don’t have to get rid of it yourself!

Once you decide to call Junk King San Diego Downtown for your yard waste and outdoor junk hauling, we’ll make sure your outdoors spaces are cleared of all the waste, junk, and clutter. And, while you can probably hire some guy with a truck to do the job, that’s an option that may end up costing you more than you hoped to save.

Fortunately, you can hire the hauling pros at Junk King to get rid of the mess quickly and easily, allowing you to get back to enjoying the season and your rejuvenated property.

Mattress Disposal

You probably spend a third of your life sleeping on your bed if you’re an average human being. (And most of us are!) So, upgrading to a new mattress is often a great idea since back pain and insomnia can both result from a bad or worn-out mattress.

But once you bring home a new mattress, what do you do with the old one? You don’t want to store it somewhere at home – they’re far too large and bulky. Giving them away is tricky since so few non-profits will take used mattresses. And this can be said of friends and family members.

Fortunately, Junk King San Diego Downtown provides an efficient, safe, and eco-friendly mattress disposal service that makes the disposal process easy for you.

Just call on our experienced mattress removal team. We have the ability to haul away your mattress – and even old bed frames – without damaging your home on the way out. We do all the heavy lifting so there’s no need for you to carry it out to the curb.

And, best of all, we’ll make sure that your old mattress is disposed of at a proper recycling facility so that it doesn’t become a threat to our ecosystem.

In addition to all these items, we also offer other residential junk pickup services such as:

Commercial Junk Removal

Items We Take – Commercial Items

Trying to get rid of old office desks or broken chairs can be a pain. Most of the time, your local waste management company won’t take them. Or, if they do, they often require you to arrange for a special pick up. And this is usually done for additional fees and having to make an appointment for the pick up.

But if you need this type of service on a regular basis, that arrangement just isn’t practical.

And you need to find a way to get it done. For most commercial junk disposal needs, there are only two options:

1. Use your own staff and vehicles.
2. You hire someone to do it for you.

While “doing it yourself may seem to be the cheapest and easiest option, it may actually not save you money. Sure, you won’t have to pay an outside vendor to do it, your employee’s time is required to do this task and that time is money lost.

In fact, the real cost to you is double since all that time spent loading, hauling, and dumping is time taken away from the work your employees are paid to do. In other words, every “dump run” means a loss in productivity and that costs you money.

The good news is that Junk King San Diego Downtown specializes in providing efficient and cost-effective commercial junk pickup services.

Here an overview of some of the items we take:

Office Furniture Removal

If you’re storing old pieces of office furniture that are too damaged to sell or donate, then they’re simply taking up valuable space. It may be that you just haven’t had the time to take care of it, or it’s much more work and expense than you want to take on.

May we suggest outsourcing the job?

When you hire Junk King San Diego Downtown, our professional team will do all the heavy lifting and haul it all away for you. In fact, choosing a professional and reliable office furniture removal service is a smart option in Chula Vista, Coronado, Imperial Beach, and National City.

Having Junk King pick up and remove your old office furniture is also smart since there’s likely no easy way to get rid of it yourself.

No worries! Junk King San Diego Downtown will provide an efficient, safe, and eco-friendly office furniture removal service to all our neighbors in the Downtown San Diego area. We can relieve you of the task of disposing of your old office furniture.

The best part is that we make sure that your old furniture items are either donated, if the pieces are in good condition, or sent to a recycling facility to be disposed of in an eco-friendly way.

Property Management Cleanouts

People are constantly moving in the San Diego area. In fact, according to the Census Bureau, more than ten percent of renters in the United States move every year. This means that all these vacated properties are likely to have junk that needs to be removed so the property can be cleaned and rented again.

One of the tasks of property management is having to clean up vacated properties. This can be shops, condominiums, apartments, houses, or offices that have junk left behind by prior occupants. In fact, before your cleaning company can clean the building, all that junk has to be gotten rid of.

Junk King San Diego Downtown can make your property management duties a bit easier by providing quick and affordable junk removal services and property cleanouts. Make us your go-to partners for cleaning out properties.

Construction Debris Removal

Construction contractors and project managers know that every aspect of a project has a cost associated with it. This is why you work to keep your workflow efficient and optimize your resources.

Unfortunately, your construction debris removal costs are often overlooked.

The fact is that debris removal is a function that should be cost-managed, as well, and carried out in a cost-effective manner. But having your own crew handling the cleanup, removal, and disposal of your worksite debris can cost more than you think.

However, outsourcing the job to a reputable, professional hauling company like Junk King San Diego Downtown is a great solution. There are benefits to this approach, such as convenience and the peace of mind knowing the job is done right.

And the costs are typically far less than using your own crew and taking them off the job site to haul debris.

Hoarder Cleanouts

Real estate professionals, property managers, landlords and others may need residential cleanouts for a variety of reasons. However, occasionally a cleanout is needed because of an excessive accumulation of things! In other words, from the result of hoarding.

Hoarding can be a problem for some people and for a few reasons. Sometimes it is simply the result of habitually holding on to everything and this eventually results in a home that is crowded with junk and difficult to get around in. Then there are those unfortunate individuals that hoard things because of a mental or emotional disorder.

Junk King San Diego Downtown normally uses teams of two professional junk removal experts for residential jobs. However, for hoarder cleanouts, a two-person crew might not be enough.

Not to worry! Junk King San Diego Downtown will make your hoarder cleanout a priority and arrange for additional resources as needed. And with Junk King you won’t be paying for extra labor since our flat fee is based strictly on how much of your stuff ends up in the truck.

Foreclosure Cleanouts

Realtors® and real estate professionals working with foreclosed residential properties often must remove the junk abandoned by former homeowners. Unfortunately, this is because many prior occupants fail to leave their foreclosed home completely empty when they leave.

And this means that these foreclosed properties are often left with clothes, trash, abandoned furniture, and other junk. Real estate professionals understand that the task of cleaning out these properties falls on them. But they also understand that they have too many other things to take care of to be dealing with foreclosure cleanouts.

Good news! Junk King San Diego Downtown is your best choice for taking care of foreclosure cleanouts.

As North America’s leading business-to-business junk removal service, Junk King provides expert real estate junk pickup services. Take a big task off your to-do list by calling Junk King San Diego Downtown for your foreclosure cleanout and be that much closer to getting your property on the market.

Commercial Scrap Metal Pick Up

Getting rid of large junk items and other scrap materials can be difficult. This is especially true for commercial scrap metal. In fact, recycling scrap metal is an even more difficult task than recycling common commercial trash.

Not to worry! Junk King San Diego Downtown can pick up and remove your scrap metal for you. Our consistently green and eco-friendly processes include taking it all to a local recycling facility. And this means that your metal debris will become new raw materials for manufacturing, using environmentally friendly methods.

In fact, Junk King recycles more materials than other junk pickup companies and our scrap metal recycling in Downtown San Diego includes:

• Iron, steel, copper, aluminum, and brass scrap items
• Beams, wire, and most other metal construction debris
• Appliances, plumbing fixtures, and other office renovation debris
• Most other unwanted metal junk

Proper metal recycling is of great importance to San Diego, specifically in Chula Vista, Coronado, Imperial Beach and National City.

In order to recycle metal, one needs to collect it from different sources. This includes old appliances and electronics as well as scrap metal from construction sites. This process can be a daunting task for a single person because you need a lot of space and time to store the items until they are sorted by their type.

Luckily Junk King San Diego Downtown is here with their efficient services that help you manage your unwanted scrap metal. Just schedule a pickup and Junk King will make sure your junk metal gets recycled properly.

Storage Unit Cleanouts

When storage facility managers discover that a large amount of junk has been left behind by a previous renter, this can be a real problem for them. Regardless of the quantity of belongings left behind, or the nature of the goods, the work of getting all that junk cleared out and hauled away falls on them.

It’s important to clear abandoned units quickly so they can be rented out again and generate some revenue for the facility manager and owners. If not rented, these spots represent a loss of revenue for both parties.

For the typical storage facility manager, this usually means taking time away from other duties or hiring someone else to do the work of clearing it out. It also means having a large enough vehicle to accommodate the junk. And what the typical storage facility manager does not have is the spare time, money, or resources to make that happen easily.

The good news is that Junk King Downtown San Diego offers a solution to this problem!

When you need a storage unit cleared out, junk removal and debris disposal done quickly and without hassle, all you need to do is call Junk King Downtown San Diego. No matter what type of job it is, we do it with one low price and can get it done fast.

Large Trash Removal

Do you need your company’s trash picked up more often than is scheduled by your waste management service? Or do you regularly dispose of bulk trash items they won’t pick up?

Sure, you could have your employees take time from their normal jobs to haul trash, or maybe just do it yourself, but these are not cost-effective options. However, there is a better option.

Junk King San Diego Downtown provides valet bulk trash removal service to help you out.

Our efficient, safe, and eco-friendly trash removal service makes the entire process simple for you. Our experienced teams can haul out your heavy trash items without damaging your facility on the way out. And we do all the heavy lifting so there’s no need for you to carry items out to the parking lot or loading dock.

Best of all, we make sure that as much of your large trash as possible is disposed of at a proper recycling facility.

How It Works

Working with Junk King is easy. And we work hard to keep it that way.

Because of our long-standing and deep-rooted commitment to being “green” and eco-friendly, you can rest assured that we will recycle or repurpose as much of your junk materials as is possible. And we take just about anything and everything that you need to get rid of except for hazardous materials.

Ready to make an appointment? We’ve made that easy, too!

Aside from the normal questions of what we can take or what we do with it all, we often get questions on how our process works. If you’ve never used a junk pickup service before, or this is your first time considering Junk King San Diego Downtown for your junk hauling need, here’s what you need to know.

How the Junk King Process Works

The first thing every customer needs to know is that, at Junk King, we take just about anything and everything that you need to get rid of except for hazardous materials. For our residential customers these are often referred to as Household Hazardous Wastes, or HHW.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) any material you want to dispose of could be classified as Household Hazardous Waste if it meets these criteria:

In addition, any household waste products, such as paints, cleaners, oils, batteries, and pesticides can contain hazardous ingredients and will require special care when you dispose of them.

Junk King, along with other junk pickup services, is prohibited by law to pick up and dispose of hazardous materials. And for our commercial clients, these restrictions apply to industrial hazardous waste, as well.

The second thing you need to know about Junk king is that we have a long-standing and deep-rooted commitment to being “green” and eco-friendly. This means that you can rest assured that we will recycle or repurpose as much of all the junk materials we pick up as possible.

When Junk King was founded in 2005, it was the first recycling-based junk removal operation in the nation.

At Junk King San Diego Downtown, our junk removal operates around our warehouse recycling Hub. As our trucks serve customers throughout the day picking up their junk, debris, and other unwanted items, our teams pack the trucks in such a way so that they can unpack the items quickly and efficiently at the Hub.

This is all part of our goal to be as efficient as possible in our operations while keeping our landfills free of as much unnecessary junk and waste items as possible.

If you agree to our price, our team will proceed to remove and load all your junk items and materials that you point out to us. As we noted, we can take just about anything and everything, including large furniture, old appliances, and even used mattresses.

And Junk King San Diego Downtown has continued that tradition and that green model here since opening our doors back in 2017.

Never content to simply be another company that hauls junk, Junk King San Diego Downtown works hard to stand apart from the competition in those areas that matter to our customers.

So, why is Junk King San Diego Downtown different?

The Number One Rated Service Brand in North America

When Junk King was founded from a garage in 2005 by two friends in San Carlos, California, their idea was simple: we would offer great customer service and we would recycle far more than any other junk removal company in the industry.

As we look back over almost two decades, Junk King has become the number one rated junk pickup and hauling service in North America. We are continuing to expand, and now have over 100 locally owned franchises in over half of the states in the U.S. along with locations in Canada, as well.

“Old School” Customer Service and High Tech Junk Disposal

Another aspect that makes us different is that, among other things, we continue to do things the old-fashioned way: by serving one customer at a time.

That includes always offering fair and up-front pricing, calling our customers 15 to 30 minutes before we arrive at every job, and even sweeping up after ourselves once we complete a job! We like to think of this as the “Junk King way.” So, call us today and experience the difference!
