Maybe in the beginning the plan is just to take a trash bag and fill it with anything that is obviously trash. Do this for one day and get everything that is meant to be thrown out. Then after this, start to take a strategic approach, as you may be looking at a job that takes a few hours. Move the bed out and clear out everything here, from trash to laundry to school work from the previous year. Some things you might not know if they need so pile that up somewhere out of the way. Then vacuum the floor. Do the same with other furnishings in the room. Maybe when taking a look at the mattress in the room, you realize it is filthy! Well, not to worry, Junk-B-Gone can haul your old one away!

Haul junk and DONATE As Well!

The closet is the next step. As you clear the floor space here, and the shelves, you might have an additional job. To decide if some of these clothes no longer fit or are out of date. If they’re ruined, pitch them. If not, set them into another pile, one that could be donated. One of our specialties here at Junk-B-Gone is our donation service. We donate items to local charities, provide you with a tax-deductible receipt, and in the process a person or family in need is blessed with this item.

Flood Damage Clean Up – How Junk-B-Gone Can Help

Flood Damage Clean Up – Let Junk-B-Gone Help!

Flood damage clean up is a big task to take on with just yourself. When a torrential rainstorm happens and flooding begins, it can be a stressful time for homeowners or business owners. Even just a little amount of water in a basement or a room can cause a lot of damage.  If you’ve suffered through flooding, whether from a natural disaster, or maybe a burst pipe, then you have a lot to deal with. Getting in touch with your insurance company, getting estimates from contractors, and perhaps salvaging what you can of the items that were damaged. The last thing on your mind might be getting rid of the items that were ruined.Most likely one of your first steps after the storm was to haul anything damaged out of your house or your business to dry out. Now it lies there, where you dropped it. There can be a lot to get rid of and hauled away after a flood. Some items can be carpet, water heater, drywall, lumber, wood, and anything else!

We have A+ ratings all across the internet and would love for you to give us a call today!

Flood Damage Clean Up By Yourself?

Throughout the flood damage clean up process, you may try to tackle the “clean up” by yourself. Although it is indeed possible to complete a flood damage clean up with one person, it will be an exhausting task. Not only is the task labor intensive, but then you will have to find a place to dump the debris. You will have to have a trailer or pickup truck to haul the debris. The materials needed to do the flood damage clean up will still cost money and lastly, the dumping is NOT free either. This is why Junk-B-Gone is here to help and service  your flood damage clean up or junk removal needs. Renting a dumpster is one option for you, provided you can get a dumpster when they’re in the most demand and you have a place to put it. Yet, even if you have one at your disposal, it’s not like your tossing a few items into it.  Some of the items like the carpeting may be hard for someone or even a couple people to toss into by themselves. There are also fees for the dumpster. One is that they charge you for the dumping fee and two is the time you rent the dumpster for. You are charged a daily fee. With Junk-B-Gone, there’s no hassle, and the junk removal or flood damage clean up is completed in 1 day!

Doing the Job Yourself is HAZARDOUS!

Hazards like these are hazards that Junk-B-Gone can overcome and we have the professional equipment to keep us safe!

The Risks of NOT Cleaning Up the Flood Damage Immediately

While you have a lot to deal with after a storm, the last thing you should do is just set everything out and forget about it. The debris you piled up outside could very easily become a home for mice or rats. If you’re a place to work it could become a hazard for your customers if they have to walk around it. You can’t just leave it all piled up in an alley. If the flood damage debris sit within the home, this could create a breeding ground for mold and dust and it will spread throughout the home. Mice and other rodents will also love the new home if you set the debris outside. Thus, Junk-B-Gone is the answer to any flood damage clean up or any junk removal debris you may have.

How to Remove a Hot Tub Without the Mess!

How to Remove a Hot Tub

How to remove a hot tub without the mess! Having a hot tub is a great addition to a home. A place to unwind in after a hard day at work or to soothe aching joints. It can also be a place to entertain another couple or to simply enjoy a glass of wine by yourself. Yet, if the hot tub no longer works or has been sitting unused for a while it can be a eyesore. An unused hot tub can also become a health hazard. If old water has gathered in the tub, it can be a breeding ground for insects since the water is stagnant.  Other animals might find it a place to nest like inside the foam insulation of the hot tub under the plastic fiberglass. n For small animals like mice, and rodents, an abandoned hot tub can make a great home. It’s not uncommon for raccoons, squirrels, rats and possums to make this their den, especially in the winter. If you have young children, they could be at risk, especially if they think of the animals as being friendly. This is why you need to know how to remove a hot tub without the mess. Having a working hot tub that you no longer use can still cost money. It can be expensive to maintain it each year. Couldn’t that money be put to better use?  1 broken tub within the hot tub or a major component needing to be fixed usually costs more than the actual hot tub removal completed by Junk-B-Gone.  If your home has a hot tub that has long since served its needs or no longer fits your lifestyle, then it’s time to get rid of it. If it’s still in working order, then you can probably list it on craigslist, but do NOT count on the hot tub moving. You might get a few bites, but moving the beast is a huge task that requires a lot of man power and heavy machinery! For those that can’t sell their hot tub or that has one that no longer works, then it means you have to get it to the junkyard, not an easy thing to do when even a small hot tub can weigh 500 and more than twice that for larger ones. And with their design, you can’t just toss one in the back of a pickup truck and haul it away. Do NOT ask yourself how to remove the hot tub any longer, now you can read and learn the methods that the PROS use to remove an old hot tub that has NOT been hot in years!

How to Remove a Hot Tub With Just Yourself and A LOT of Will Power!

Despite their size you can do the job yourself. You’ll need to make sure everything is disconnected correctly first, including water lines, electrical connections and maybe gas lines. Then once that is done you can begin to dismantle it. The problem is that the tub itself is in one piece and made of molded plastic or some other very durable material. A jigsaw or reciprocating saw can be used to cut the tub into smaller pieces, be advised that it’s going to be messy. Make sure your wearing safety goggles and protective clothing. And even after you’ve cut it up into sizable pieces, you’ll have to haul it away. A quick tip! You might want to pay a tarp down around the hot tub so the small debris is not flying everywhere in the wind. Even is you have a pickup truck, once the hot tub is cut up, you still have to manage to fit the big and small pieces into 1 load without having things fly out of the pickup truck bed on the road.  Renting a dumpster is probably the best option if you’re doing it yourself. Then you can just toss everything in it and not worry about scratching up the bed of the truck or safely securing it for the ride to the nearest landfill. In the end doing it yourself will take time and there will still be expenses involved. The easy part is actually cutting up the hot tub, but the hardest part is loading the hot tub and then paying to dump it which is a labor intensive process round trip.

The Downside of Removing the Hot Tub with Just 1 Person

The major downside in removing a hot tub by yourself is the wasted time and the labor that it takes to complete this task.

Home Remodeling Projects can be Hazardous

Is your home remodeling project creating safety hazards? You’ve finally begun that home remodeling project and it won’t be long before you’re enjoying the new room. In the meantime, though, as the work is being done, it can create a mess not just in the room being worked in, but in other areas of the home, as well. It’s could also have potentially turned your home into a hazard area, particularly if you have children. Dust and debris could be floating in the air for you and your family to breath in. Even if the house is hooked up with a nice filtration system for the air, that is not always a 100% effective method. Most people think it is okay to get the home remodeling project or construction debris removed all at once. The problem with this is that in the meantime, the hazardous constriction debris that is filthy and dusty is sitting in or around your house just waiting for someone to trip over the debris or hurt themselves. Do NOT worry anymore, Junk-B-Gone is here to help make your home safe and rid it of home remodeling project debris.

Some of the Home Remodeling Materials may be Hazardous

If you’re remodeling an older home, you may find that some of the materials used in the room may be classified as hazardous now. Asbestos and lead paint are two of the most common issues faced with older homes. If you are acting as a contractor doing it yourself, it is important that you follow safety guidelines when home remodeling. With these you want to make sure you’re disposing of them properly, which often means having professionals handle them.  Make sure that you contact a licensed company like Junk-B-Gone to remove and home remodeling debris you may have. We have over a decade of experience and truly have a passion for the junk removal industry. Mold is another problem you might find when performing a home remodeling project.  If you discover mold in the walls as your work, you again should consider contacting a professional. Not just to dispose of the moldy material, but to test the home for additional mold. There could have been a hazard in your home long before you began remodeling and it’s imperative to get rid of it as quickly as possible. When home remodeling, make sure you always wear a mask and consider a machine that can filter the toxins out of the air so you are NOT breathing them in.

Thick TOXIC Dust in the Air

Depending on the work being done, there could be a lot of dust in the air. With heavy machinery being moved within the home, demolition of beams and frames, paint, dust, dirt, all these listed are toxic and is roaming around in the air during a home remodeling project. This is why it is very important to take safety precautions and wear a mask, invest in an air filtration machine, anything you can do to protect yourself from home remodeling project hazards. This means sealing off the room if possible and getting any furniture in the room removed. The could create a crowded room. One thing to consider is getting rid of any outdated appliances or other junk that is taking up space in the home. Since you’re disposing of your debris you might want to add to the pile to be removed. This will give you space to put some of the furniture you’ve had to take from the room being worked on.

Now the Construction Debris is Piling Up

Provided there isn’t anything hazardous in the material you’ve removed, you still need a place to put it. You don’t want to pile it up somewhere in the home, particularly if you have small children in the home. Piling up home remodeling project debris within the home in the worst thing you can do! All the debris will pollute the air with even more toxins, dust, mold, dirt, etc. Maybe the drywall that you cut down from the bathroom had mold on it that was unnoticed. If you place the home remodeling debris in the home itself, that would be a huge hazard. Even if the drywall did not have mold, simply finding a better place to put the home remodeling project debris like in a pile outside.

Check Online Reviews and Hire a Junk Removal Service

Google is one of the first place to look, but Yelp and Angie’s List are also two good sources for reviews on  reliable junk removal service. Don’t just go by the stars, but read a few comments to get a feel for how the employees are. Finding a reliable junk removal service might take some digging, but finding a good company to take care of you shouldn’t be too hard. Look at the companies hours of operation to make sure they can accommodate your schedule. Check to see with any close friends to see if they have used the company before! Another tip is when you call the company on the phone, ask questions, and make sure the person on the other line can professionally answer.

Clear Up Front Pricing Structure

They should provide you with a quote once you tell them what you need hauled and from where. You might have some additional items that you hadn’t mentioned when they arrive. Let them know at the start and find out what the additional cost would be. Unless there is something unexpected with your junk the price they quote you should be the price you pay. Hiring a company that is not up front with their pricing can lead to miscommunication about price and that is NOT encouraged. Even if you do NOT get an exact price that’s okay, just make sure you are getting a ballpark price so you know what to expect.

Being Eco-Friendly is a Huge Plus When Hiring a Junk Removal Service

You might NOT think of a reliable junk removal service as being environmentally friendly, but the best ones usually are. What does this mean? It means that they don’t just haul your stuff to the nearest landfill, adding to the mounting problem of what to do with all the trash. Instead they separate items out that can be recycled.
