How to Quickly Clean Out an Eviction or Foreclosure Property
Eviction or foreclosed properties are often filled with lots of unwanted junk. One integral part of selling a foreclosed home is ensuring that it’s cleaned up and looking great for prospective buyers. You’ll need to ensure that all the previous owner’s property is removed from the home quickly prior to putting the home up for sale.
Whether you’re a homeowner, foreclosure company representative, landlord, or real estate agent attempting to make a sale, you may find it extremely challenging to get rid of all that junk. Besides hauling heavy items out of the home, you’ll need to ensure that the property isn’t damaged in the process.
Apart from the difficulties of tenant or homeowner concerns and demands, there are stringent timelines and legal requirements associated with the foreclosure or eviction processes. At Junk King, we understand the pains of clearing the debris in abandoned property and cleaning the property afterward. We specialize in foreclosure cleanouts and bulk trash and junk removal service.
Reliable Eviction Property Cleanout Services
The COVID-19 pandemic hit at a time when housing prices were on an upsurge. Combined with income lost due to the global pandemic, more than 11 million Americans were left at risk of eviction. In a normal year, property owners and landlords submit almost four million eviction filings. Although the COVID-19 eviction moratoria prevented nearly 1.6 million evictions, the courts may soon be flooded with numerous residential eviction cases from tenants undergoing financial hardship.
As a result, many real estate agents, property managers, landlords, and financial institutions holding mortgages could be inundated with evictions and foreclosure filings. If that happens to you, you’ll need a professional junk removal service to take care of all your junk removal and trash removal.
And since eviction circumstances are obviously unpleasant, most former residents usually leave behind a lot of belongings. It’s not uncommon for properties to be filled to the brim with piles of trash, assorted junk items, and debris piled up or scattered from room to room. At Junk King, we aim to eliminate the hassle of cleaning out eviction properties, saving you time to focus on what you do best.
Old Furniture Removal from Eviction or Foreclosure Properties
There will be piles of rubbish and trash in some eviction or foreclosed properties. But oftentimes, the previous owners or tenants also leave behind bulky old furniture. If you have ever had to move large furniture pieces, you probably know that most furniture is bulky, heavy, and awkward to manoeuvre and move. Besides moving, old furniture removal also involves picking up the abandoned pieces, loading them into a truck, and taking them to an appropriate disposal site.
The entire process is difficult, labor-intensive, and dangerous to execute. This is certainly not the kind of job a real estate agent or landlord wants to be taking on their own. Fortunately, Junk King offers professional furniture removal services to take the burden off your shoulders.
Junk King not only provides an efficient, safe, and eco-friendly old furniture removal service but also ensures that your items end up in the right place. For instance, if the pieces of furniture are still in proper shape, we take them to a charity for a donation. But if they’re unusable, we take them to a recycling facility to ensure they’re disposed of in an eco-friendly way.
We remove almost all kinds of furniture, including:
- Sofa Beds
- Mattresses
- Boxes
- Armoires
- Couches
- Sofas
- Cubicles
- Desks
- File Cabinets
- Chairs
- Tables
- Bookcases
- Tool Units
Professional Appliance Removal from Eviction or Foreclosure Properties
Sometimes, a vacated home may be filled with trash and old, broken appliances items. Just like furniture, moving, loading, and hauling away bulky appliances pose huge challenges. Considering that a med-sized front-loading washer weighs as much as 180 pounds and a gas or electric cooker typically weighs 130 to 220 pounds, you’ll want to engage the services of a professional junk remover to move these items. Moreover, a large French Door refrigerator can weigh over 300 pounds, making it almost impossible to move by yourself or with the help of a friend.
Besides the risk of bodily injury, there is also the real risk of damaging your property’s walls and floors while removing the old appliances. This simply adds to the expenses of cleaning your property and making it market-ready by triggering unplanned repairs. The expert professionals at Junk King specialize in appliance removal services and will make the entire process safe and seamless.
Recycling During an Eviction or Foreclosure Cleanout
At Junk King, we believe that junk disposal doesn’t always mean dumping your trash in landfills. Our junk hauling and junk disposal services actually contribute to recycling efforts. Because there can be a broad range of items involved in an eviction or foreclosure cleanout, our team always sorts everything to ensure that at least 60 percent of them are recycled.
Besides household waste, we also ensure that old furniture, appliances, electronics, and large household items are recycled as well. Although it may not be apparent at first, almost everything that we collect from an eviction or foreclosure property can be recycled or reused. However, there are a number of common materials extracted from large junk items that are primary candidates for recycling, such as metal, paper, and plastic.
Junk King is proud to be the greenest junk removal company in North America. We pioneered recycling-based junk removal services and have been striving to get greener each year. We sort the items we haul away with each foreclosure cleanout for e-waste, metals, paper, household goods, furniture, textiles, and appliances in our recycling warehouses.
Being green also means we donate, reuse, and repurpose everything, including toys, clothing, baby cribs, strollers, office furniture, and supplies. Moreover, we run many of our junk hauling trucks on biodiesel, a locally produced fuel made from environmentally safe renewable resources. Junk King is committed to keeping our planet beautiful, clean, and green for generations to come.
