How to Quickly Clean Out an Eviction or Foreclosure Property

 

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.

Spring Cleaning Guide

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.

Heavy Lifting, Without Moving A Muscle
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.

Get Old Appliances Removed by The Experts at Junk King

Are you still hanging on to some old appliances? Whether it’s an old fridge that’s been serving your family for well over a decade or a noisy dishwasher that’s barely getting anything clean, it may be time to replace with some newer, more energy-efficient appliances. This way, you can help both your bank account and the environment while getting the convenience of smart devices.

Still, there’s the issue of getting rid of your old appliances. You don’t want them clogging up the landfills and it can be especially difficult lugging heavy appliances like refrigerators and washing machines. Also, how do you dispose of them once you have them loaded in your truck?

Junk King offers stress-free pickup of old appliances and we make eco-friendly disposal easy.

Eco-Friendly Appliance Removal and Disposal Services

Disposing of old appliances is not easy, in labor or in process. Most old-generation home appliances contain harmful chemicals, which are dangerous when disposed of incorrectly. For instance, older refrigerators have chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) that wreck the ozone layer when left to sit in a trash pile. That’s part of the reason why you can’t dispose of fridges, window AV units, dehumidifiers, microwaves and washer-dryers in landfills.

Now everything would be fine if appliances were made of biodegradable materials, but that’s not the case. Dumping appliances in landfills is a disservice to the environment as dangerous materials and chemical compounds leak into the water we drink and the air we breathe.

But with Junk King, the fate of your appliances need not be so bleak. Appliances are made of metals, plastics, and glass making them highly recyclable. We’ve partnered with recycling centers that strip down each recyclable material and safely dispose of the dangerous chemicals.

So, let’s make a deal: we’ll pick up your old appliances and make sure they stay out of landfills. This way, you get to reclaim your space while keeping our planet happy.

We Remove All Types of Appliances

Appliance removal is as straightforward as it sounds. Once you’ve scheduled an appointment, we’ll show up to your house or place of business and get it out of your way. Some homeowners opt for DIY removal, which would be fine and handy if most appliances weren’t so bulky and heavy. As such, appliance removal can be quite cumbersome requiring the skill and experience that can only come from years of junk hauling.

Unfortunately, some people break up appliances in chunks to make the hauling and disposal process much easier. Doing so can leak harmful chemicals into your home, resulting in health problems for you and your family. Now, this is why you should always opt for professional appliance removal. At Junk King, not only do we have the experts for the job, we also have the resources plus technical know-how to properly dispose of them.

And the best part? We take pretty much everything including both large and small appliances. We can also get rid of that old hot tub for you in the process. What we’re trying to say is that no job is too big or too small for our junk removal specialists.

Frequently Asked Questions About Appliance Removal

1. Can you recycle old appliances?

Many large and small appliances can be recycled at your local scrap yard or recycling center. However, you’ll be responsible for moving, hauling, loading and transporting the appliances to the scrap yard. Also, there’s no guarantee that the scrapyard will accept your appliance or that the process will be profitable for you as market value of your old appliances may not cover the labor, fuel, and transportation costs.

Since Junk King provides appliances removal and disposal services across the country, we’ve partnered with various recycling centers and local charities. Just book a pick-up online and we’ll recycle and donate your unwanted devices in an ethical, environmentally friendly manner.

2. How do you dispose of old appliances?

There are three ways you can get rid of your junk appliances.

  • Sell them – If your appliance is still in good condition, chances are there’s an interested college student willing to take it off your hands. Sites like Craigslist make it easy to find your junk items a second home and get some cash in return.
  • Donate them – Donating to your local nonprofit or second-hand shop is a great way to get rid of old appliances.
  • Scrap them – Recycling is your best option if the appliances are damaged or no longer working. You can take these items to the local scrap yard in exchange for some money. Keep in mind that not all scrap yards accept all appliances, especially the ones that contain toxic chemicals.

Depending on the size and condition of your old appliances, you may need to access a truck for transportation, which may incur rental, insurance and fuel fees.

3. How much does appliance removal cost with Junk King?

Junk King operates a unique pricing model. Unlike companies that charge a uniform fee for appliance removal, we only charge you for the amount of space your items take up in our truck. This way, you get to save money in the process.

So, don’t risk injury or damage to your home dragging old appliances out of your home because of cost. We strive to make junk removal accessible and affordable for all our clients. It’s also worth mentioning that our hauling professionals are certified, licensed, and insured, which means you’re assured of an efficient, stress-free process.

Let Junk King Make Your Appliance Removal Stress Free

Junk King provides fast and flexible appliance disposal services that take your schedule and wellbeing into consideration. We provide luxury in-home pick-up for all our clients at no extra cost, which means you don’t have to do a thing. Our haulers will do all the heavy lifting and hauling for you.

Getting rid of old appliances has never been easier! We make the junk removal process easy, convenient and stress-free. Schedule an appointment with Junk King so you can reclaim your space for newer, better appliances.

Eviction Clean Out Help For Landlords With Junk King!

 
Evictions are often dreaded events by both landlords and tenants but are necessary sometimes for property owners.

Junk King has plenty of experience in eviction clean-outs and can help make your project painless.

Moving the Eviction Process Along

 
When a tenant suffers a financial fiasco abd can’t pay the rent, it can trigger a domino effect that creates revenue loss for the landlord. The landlord needs to take the proper legal steps for eviction set by the state. Once a court grants the landlord approval to evict the tenant, usually the tenant is given a reasonable amount of time to recover their belongings.
 
As a landlord, it’s important that you keep the eviction process moving along since tenants often seek delays. During the pandemic many tenants fell behind on their rents but were protected by eviction moratoriums. Once these restraints expired, landlords across the country began getting the eviction process rolling.
 
In August 2021 the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities reported that as many as 16 percent of American households had fallen behind on rent. States where renters fell behind the most included New York, Pennsylvania, Indiana and Georgia.
 
Many evictions are the result of large investors buying properties, raising rents and evicting those who cannot afford to pay. In Cleveland 76 percent of the city’s eviction filings during the pandemic period have been filed by investors.
 
While the eviction process might drag on for weeks or months longer than expected, you know it’s over when the clean out is completed. We want to ensure that this process finalizes on an upbeat note. Our clean out will be thorough, allowing you to rent the space out right away.
 

Preparing for the Eviction Clean Out

 
You shouldn’t worry about lifing or moving any heavy items, since Junk King will do that for you. Preparing for a clean out may be as simple as making a list of which items to be hauled away. Depending on your timeline, you have options to think about on removing the tenant’s items.
 
Landlords typically give evicted tenants a final chance to collect their belongings before putting items on sale at an auction. But if you don’t have time to sort through hundreds of items to determine what to sell, the easiest thing to do is to have the items hauled away in bulk by an eco-friendly service. Junk King was founded on the principles of promoting a cleaner environment.
 
Another thing you won’t have to worry about is the complex set of regulations surrounding the proper disposal of e-waste or old appliances. We’ll take care of that for you, as we collect many electronic items. Junk King picks up a wide variety of junk that comes in all sizes. We regularly haul large furniture like couches and large appliances like refrigerators.
 

Let Junk King Examine Your Site

 
When you are ready to plan an eviction clean out, first check our price estimator to get an idea of what your clean out will cost. Then contact Junk King and let us know a good time to visit your place. We’ll inspect the junk you want to be removed then plan a strategy for removing the items in the most efficient way. By visiting your site we’ll know how many trucks and hauling specialists to bring.
 
Customizing the removal process is our specialty since every job we do is unique. Junk King believes in a personalized friendly experience when it comes to junk removal. We also want to make sure the items are removed safely in a timely manner with no damage to your property. Our skilled team prioritizes safety and overall efficiency.
 
Once we see the amount and kind of junk you need to be removed, we can also begin to plan space at our facility for items we can repurpose. If the items cannot be sold or given away due to poor condition, we might disassemble them and recycle scraps. We will do everything we can to prevent items from ending up in a landfill as part of our goals toward waste reduction.
 

Making Space for the Next Tenant

 
Are you looking for a complete apartment or office clean out? Whether the clean out involves removing everything in sight or just a small collection of items, we are ready to help. Our team can turn what seems to be several days’ worth of work into a matter of hours.
 
We understand you have your own timetable to deal with that involves renting the space to a new tenant. The next tenant must feel the space is fresh. So if you need everything cleaned out, we’ll make it happen.
 

Conclusion

 
We want to help you make the eviction process as smooth as possible. Our team has handled countless eviction clean outs of homes, apartments, offices, and storage units. We can clean out complexes of any size. Contact us at Junk King when you are ready to set a plan in motion for a seamless clean out.

Make Appliance Recycling Easy With Junk King!

 

Nearly half the states in America have implemented landfill bans on large appliances.

 
So what are you supposed to do with an old refrigerator when it stops working and needs to be replaced? The most sustainable solution is appliance recycling. Here are important points to know about appropriately getting rid of large appliances, which increasingly involve recycling.
 

 

Appliance Recycling

 
Did you know that ten percent of steel recycled in the United States each year comes from large appliances? Steel is also America’s most recycled material. Since you’re not allowed to just dump big junk anywhere, it’s best to work with Junk King, which not only hauls away junk, but works with appliance recycling partners.
 

How Metal is Recycled?

 
Metals are commonly mixed with other metals in the industrial world to create alloys. Japan, for example, uses scrap metal to mix with gold, silver and bronze. Aluminum is a strong alloy that can be shaped into countless items that are durable and rust resistant. Eventually aluminum products can be recycled.
 
The beauty about metal recycling is that it can be done quickly. Aluminum cans, for example, can be recycled and reused a few months after collection. Overall scrap metal recycling significantly helps reduce greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere.
 

The Problem with Old Refrigerators

 
One of the reasons why old refrigerators have been banned from many landfills is they contain chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), which are a top cause of ozone depletion. Due to stricter regulations starting in 1994, most modern refrigerators don’t use CFCs such as Freon. Junk King can remove any number of these old appliances from homes or businesses through full service junk removal.
 

Importance of Appliance Recycling

 
The concept of appliance recycling emerged from the environmental movement as a solution to slow down the acceleration of landfill waste. As the population grows, so do massive piles of waste. Eventually the world will need safer and more sustainable solutions for waste disposal. Perhaps sending waste in space?
 

Keeping Appliances out of Landfills

 
One of the top concerns among environmentalists is limiting the junk that ends up in landfills. Even though landfills were originally a solution to remove waste from society, they’ve become heaps of waste containing toxic chemicals that seep back into the environment. Toxic chemicals in landfills can end up polluting ground water.
 
Landfills have actually been around for over 5,000 years. They represent the oldest form of public waste disposal for non reusable items besides burning unwanted trash. They became common across American cities during the industrial boom of the early 20th century. After years of complaints about landfill odors and toxic waste, the U.S. government passed the Solid Waste Disposal Act of 1965.
 
Starting in the late seventies the federal government began to ban open landfills. Since 1988 the number of landfills across America has decreased from over 8,000 to around 1,250 or more, according to Statista. Despite this progress, existing landfills still pose threats to the environment, which is why many states have taken action to reduce landfill buildup.
 

Demand for Scrap Metal

 
Since many large appliances are made of metal, they’re in demand among junk collectors, recyclers and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). So don’t think just because an old appliance doesn’t work that it’s worthless. Anything made of metal can be melted down and formed into something new.
 
The U.S. scrap metal market in 2021 reached $25 billion, according to Fact.MR. Currently there’s huge demand for scrap metal in the automotive and construction industries. Automotive scrap metal recycling is expected to continue comprising 60 percent of total metal recycling through the 2020s and beyond.
 

Making Old Products New Again

 
There are several ways to repurpose junk, starting with assessing its value to either sell online or in a garage sale. If you don’t think you can sell the item, consider giving it away to a charity. Another option if your local jurisdiction allows is to leave a large appliance on your curb with a “free” sign on it. 
 
People who struggle with low income and high cost of living expenses appreciate donations such as large appliances. So when you donate, you’re contributing to environmental, financial and social sustainability at the same time: reusing an old product that becomes a new gift to someone in your community who needs it.
 
Another way old appliances contribute to sustainable solutions is to dismantle them for using parts that still work in other machines. Some parts can be repurposed in creative ways, like converting a refrigerator into a couch, bed or bookcase. Your old refrigerator might also make a useful table or a big dolly with wheels attached.
 

Make Appliance Recycling Easy by Hiring Junk Removal Experts

 
You may contribute to the recycling mission by ordering Junk King appliance removal services to visit your residence or business. We make it easy for you in several ways. First we visit your place to assess the logistics of hauling away your appliances. Then we determine the number of vehicles and hauling specialists the job will require.
 
Once we remove the items, we begin a new evaluation of what to do with them. Since Junk King is a company that believes in sustainability, we want to make sure we deliver a minimum of junk to landfills. We would rather see any old item reused, repurposed or recycled.
 
A landfill is a last resort if we can’t donate or convert an appliance into something useful. Over 60 percent of what we collect doesn’t end up in a landfill. We are always looking for innovative ways to repurpose old products.
 

Reduce Stress

 
Even though the environment should be an upbeat topic about nature, many times it’s covered by the media with a tone of doom and gloom. When people hear the term “climate change,” it can paint an eerie picture in their minds. People get stressed when they have to figure out on their own how to get rid of various forms of waste safely and legally.
 
Instead of the environment being an extra thing to worry about, why not think of the positive aspects of contributing to sustainable solutions? You can accomplish this goal by hiring Junk King to handle the most difficult part: hauling heavy appliances. Clearing out heavy equipment is not an easy task for most individuals, whereas we have a team of trained professionals who do it every day.
 

Conclusion

 
Each of us can play a role in protecting the environment by keeping as much junk out of landfills as possible. It’s more environmentally responsible to see that old large appliances and other massive items get reused or converted in some way. Contact Junk King appliance recycling services to answer your questions about how we can take old appliances and other unwanted possessions off your hands.

Wondering Where to Dump Vancouver Trash? Worry Less With These Quick Tips

 

Vancouver is too nice of a city to let waste pile up.

 

The City of Vancouver warns on its website about the consequences of illegal trash dumping, as fines range from $100 to $10,000. It’s smart to learn about environmental regulations and make sure you’re disposing of junk properly. If you don’t know what to do with oversized junk, explore what Junk King does in Vancouver.
 

 
Instead of looking for the Dump in Vancouver in a pick-up truck full of waste, you’ll save time and fuel by turning the work over to experienced professionals. Junk King follows the laws of the cities where it operates and plays a major role in recycling. It’s a company that works diligently to keep as much waste out of landfills as possible.
 

Dumping Trash in Vancouver

 
It’s imperative to follow local regulations and not resort to whatever the most convenient waste Dump strategy appears to be. Certain junk will not be accepted by local trash collectors.
 
Junk King can pick up a wide variety of trash that your local trash collectors won’t. Vancouver, like many other cities, limits the number of bulky items you can dispose of through its trash collection services. While there are options in Washington State, the easiest and quickest method for getting rid of unwanted items is through Junk King.
 
We collect e-waste and take it to recyclers who distribute parts to manufacturers who support purchasing recycled materials. E-waste has been a large contributor to landfill waste for the past several decades and we’re determined to limit this buildup as much as possible.
 

Remember the 3Rs: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle

 
Junk King not only follows junk removal regulations at all levels, it introduces innovative streamlining ideas for the junk removal industry. In 2020 Junk King honored Jason Edge for its “Best New Franchise” Award, based in Vancouver. 
 
Edge and his Junk King team in Vanouver emphaize reusing, reducing or recycling as much of its collected junk as possible. Focusing on the ‘3Rs” can inspire customers to think about purchasing more durable products. Other franchises across Junk King’s franchise network practice the same ethic to reduce landfill waste buildup.
 
The  “3Rs framework”  can be applied on a larger scale for the business community to examine as an effective strategy for going green. Many companies want to promote environmental safety but aren’t sure how. The simplest entry into the sustainability movement is to follow the three Rs as the world prepares to invest in cleaner energy.
 
One of the steps citizens can take toward the 3Rs includes learning about zero waste strategies such as living plastic free. While many people aren’t ready to take this giant leap yet, others can figure out how to repurpose plastic items to keep them out of landfills and waterways. Plastic creates toxic conditions when it’s consumed by fish and other wildlife.
 

Establish Sustainability Goals and Guidelines

 
Selecting Junk King for junk removal services sets your sustainability plans in motion. The next step is to set goals and guidelines for your household or business that pave the way toward a more sustainable future. Sustainability embodies environmental and human safety at its core, but it also includes social and financial responsibility.
 
Cutting waste should be one of the top concerns of any manufacturer. Your family can reduce waste by learning about conservation and eco-friendly alternatives for materials. As the population grows, there will be a greater strain on natural resources, so it’s wise to prepare by reducing dependence on disposal products.
 

Aim for a Clutter-free Home or Office Environment

 
Since safety is an important principle of sustainability, consider how a clutter-free home or office creates safer conditions for people. One of the reasons why people get injured from tripping and falling in their garage is due to clutter. You don’t need old rusty tools or bulky machines in storage spaces if you have no plans to use these items again.
 
Junk King employs highly-skilled junk removal specialists who have done many cleanouts in homes and offices. First we come check out your site and then map out a plan for the number of trucks and crew members needed to haul away your debris.
 
Not only is a clutter-free work or living environment safer, it opens up opportunities to do more with your storage space. Businesses can utilize extra space in more efficient ways than storing old equipment that won’t be plugged in again. A clutter-free environment also promotes a sense of good organization.

Why search for the rules and regulations at the local Vancouver dump? Junk King experts will haul it all away for you!

 
You don’t really have to worry much about Dump Vancouver nightmares that can lead to wasted time and confusion once you decide on Junk King. Just invite us over, point out the junk and we’ll get started on a plan. Once you agree to our offer, the process speeds up from there.
 
While removing junk is what we’re most known for, figuring out what to do with the junk is our specialty. We hire talented individuals with creative ideas on how to repurpose junk in our workplace. Over the years, we’ve repurposed many mattresses, steel frames, furniture and even musical instruments.

Evaluate What Stays and Goes

 
In your quest to reduce unused items that clutter your residence or office, take inventory and time to assess what you want to keep versus what you’re willing to throw out. Some people get stuck in the process because an old item might bring back sentimental memories. If that’s the case, keep it until you get tired of it.
 
If you’ve got too much sentimental junk piling up, ask yourself if it’s the actual objects or what they represent that creates emotional value. Then ask would the emotional value still exist through photos instead of storing the items indefinitely. If so, take some nice photos then let us clear out the clutter.
 
You might also consider repurposing old junk as gifts to friends or donations to charity. Junk King donates to several charities, particularly when we are unable to do anything else with the material. Dumping waste in landfills is a last resort, as we recycle, reuse or repurpose 60 percent of what we collect.

Junk King’s team is ready to reduce all the stress that comes from junk accumulation. We know you want to free up space as soon as possible, which is why we work quickly but safely. Our team has learned many tricks of the trade for removing junk efficiently.
 
Many times we dismantle these items down to parts that become useful for various industries. If you have old computers or other e-waste stacking up, we’ll make sure the technology is refurbished if it can be.
 

Conclusion
