Junk Removal

How Junk Removal Works

Junk can negatively impact our health, consumes too much of our space, lowers our productivity, and can cause stress. Thankfully, junk removal companies are available almost everywhere nowadays.

Junk removal companies can help haul all your unwanted stuff, whether you are renovating, moving, or just want to get rid of all the junk in your house. Junk removal companies take any unwanted items off of your hands quickly and efficiently.

Junk hauling is a service that can help you get almost all kinds of trash removed from your office space or home including bulky bags of clothes, old or broken appliances, and trash.

Their services are pretty much available on-demand, this means you can call the junk removal company and they’ll come to haul your stuff on the very same day. However, it might be best to make an appointment ahead of time, especially if you are on a tight schedule.

In most cases, these companies will provide you with two options:

Full-service removal

Full-service removal, also known as Truck Hauling, is a service wherein 3 or 4 employees from the junk removal company will arrive at your location with a large truck or dumpster, and they will carry all the junk themselves and drive it away as soon as they are done.

This means that you do not have to spend time carrying and loading stuff into the dumpster since the junk removers will all do it for you and then haul it away.

Renting a Dumpster

If you decide to just rent a dumpster, the junk removal company will drive and drop off the dumpster at your location.

Before calling for a dumpster rental, you have to estimate the amount of junk you have to be able to pick the appropriate size dumpster.

You will then carry all the junk of unwanted items and load it into the dumpster. Once you are done, the junk removal employees will return to haul it away.

This is a good service if you plan on cleaning out your own home or office over the span of a couple of days or if you have a home renovation project going on.

How Junk Removal will Benefit You

Here are some benefits of hiring junk removal companies:

Time Saver

Junk removal companies will help remove all of your unwanted junk in a cluttered bedroom, office, or storage room, this will give you more time to spend with your family and friends or have more time for leisure or important business matters.

So, instead of searching for dumpster rentals, and dealing with fees and permits, a junk hauling company will just be a phone call away. They will save you from the stress of figuring out the costs and logistics all on your own. And if you really don’t have the time, many junk removal companies offer same-day service.

Spend Less

For business owners, home construction companies, real estate, and property management companies, hiring junk hauling experts comes with a price, but, they can make more money by having more time and investing it into important business matters.

Declutter

Regaining more space will enable you to build dreams, especially if you are planning to have a guest room, baby nursery, game room, or a neat garage.

Clutter can also block good energy, so cleaning and clearing workspaces and living areas will promote productivity and a positive flow of energy.

Eco-friendly Solutions

When hiring junk removal companies, you can ask them about how they dispose of all your unwanted items. At Ace Hauling, their team of friendly local experts will sort out your junk in three categories – recyclable, donations, and disposable. 

In this way, you’ll gain peace of mind knowing that not all your unwanted items end up in landfills.

Ability to handle large commercial jobs

For foreclosures and major business renovations, it is not safe to carry items on your own. Since many large items require a team, attempting to haul these items without any help from the professionals will increase your chances of injury.

Some items will require tools, more manpower, and trucks, and some items require disassembling before you are able to bring them out of the building, thus it is better to leave the to the professionals.

How Much Junk Removal Cost

Junk hauling companies do not offer set prices or fixed estimates over the phone, this is because the costs depend on a lot of factors, including the type of materials, amount of junk you have, your location, and how accessible the job is for them, for instance, can they park conveniently? Do they have to go up and down a flight of stairs to carry the items?

You will also pay different fees depending on which option you choose, full-service junk removal or dumpster rental?. However, the minimum amount that people spend on junk hauling services is between $150 and $350.

Average dumpster rental fees range between $90 and $500, but these services can also range from $70 to $850.

The first step is to make sure that you really need a junk removal company. It is usually best to hire one if you have large or bulky items that you can’t get rid of yourself.

The next step is to find a reliable junk hauling company, you can ask your friends and family or search and read reviews online. Be sure to call them and ask for a quote for the services you require.
