Homeowner associations are responsible for many things, but junk removal is not always one of them.
A homeowner association (HOA) is an organization in a subdivision, planned community, or condominium building that makes and enforces rules for the properties and residents. In addition, many HOAs provide certain services for their members in exchange for the fees received.
Typically, the HOA management will provide amenities for all HOA members that may include:
- Landscaping
- Parking lots
- Swimming pools
- Tennis courts
- Party spaces
And some HOA fees may also cover the cost of trash collection and even junk removal. But is junk removal service for an HOA a cost-effective or even necessary option?
What is Junk Removal for HOAs?
We touched on some of the duties and services that homeowner associations provide, but what does an HOA do about junk removal?
If the junk in question is the result of maintenance, repairs, or construction carried under the auspices of the HOA, then the organization will typically have their maintenance staff, if they have any, clean up and haul any junk, rubbish, or debris that is generated.
If they have no staff for that type of work, then an HOA will need to contract with a professional junk hauling firm such as Junk King San Diego, for example.
But what if the junk that needs to be removed is from a resident? HOA rules on junk removal can vary from one property to another. However, most HOAs have strict rules on a variety of practices and trash and junk disposal are included.
As a recent Bankrate article noted,
“Homeowners in an HOA can get into trouble for throwing certain items, like boxes that haven’t been broken down or pieces of furniture, into community dumpsters.”
However, many residents may be hard pressed to haul away and dispose of their household and residential junk themselves. Not everyone owns or has easy access to a truck, and many older residents may not be able to manage the work of junk removal.
Which is why some HOAs have opted to include junk removal services as one of the benefits available to their resident members.
Why Junk Removal for HOAs Can Help you Reduce Costs and Increase Property Values
All HOAs have regulations and rules regarding the cleanliness and upkeep of properties. And these often include the proper disposal of bulk trash and debris from yards. However, enforcing these rules can often be a burden for HOAs that are understaffed.
Also, if random piles of large trash or household junk is deposited elsewhere on the grounds of a community that is within the purview of the HOA, the task of removing that junk falls on the HOA eventually. And this can be costly.
In addition, if residential junk is allowed to sit in yards for extended periods of time, the overall aesthetic is marred and, quite possibly, property values can begin to decrease.
A great option for decreasing the costs of periodic junk removal and for maintaining and even improving the property values of the homes or condos managed by an HOA is to have an ongoing contract with a professional junk removal firm like Junk King San Diego.
While San Diego has a fairly mild climate year-round, there are still the occasional storms that can create a bit of a mess with broken tree branches and even some damage to buildings and fences. When these instances arise and there are multiple piles of debris and junk to be removed, having a reliable junk removal vendor on hand can be far more cost-effective and efficient than relying on individual homeowners to take care of it.
