Junk Removal 101: Why Didn’t They Take my Junk?

Junk Removal 101: Why Didn’t They Take my Junk?

Most people assume that just because it’s a junk removal company, they can take anything and everything. This is quite far from reality, since junk removal companies have a selection of stuff that they can haul away, and those that they can’t.

In this guide, we will focus on the items that junk removal companies won’t take. You might be wondering why they refused to haul away certain junk items that you have. See, junk removal companies hold their distinct reasons why they may denounce some items. The types of items vary from one service to another. Certain items have their unique disposal system. And this is something that you need to learn and appreciate. Some of these items are what junk haulers collectively refer to as hazardous materials.

They normally leave hazardous waste behind for fear of them mixing with other junk. And this type of mixture could result in some trouble.

What Items Do Junk Removal Companies Not Take?

So, quickly, let’s run you through some of the items that your junk remover won’t easily accept:

  •       Radioactive wastes and explosives.
  •       Medical wastes.
  •       Ammunitions.
  •       Appliances that have a Freon coolant. These include air conditioners, freezers, and fridges.
  •       Mercury products such as thermometers, iodine, thermostats, and fluorescent bulbs.
  •       Vehicle and motor care products such as brake fluid, motor oil, gasoline, and radiator cleaner.
  •       Household care items such as bleach, drain cleaners, floor cleaner, oven cleaner, ammonia, aerosol cans, and batteries.
  •       Plant and yard care items such as fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides.
  •       Home repair and maintenance items such as propane, paint, paint thinner, and kerosene.

Practical Junk Removal Tips from Experts

Are you tired of trying to deal with the garbage and junk around your home? There are things you can do to make the process easier. Junk removal experts will tell you that prevention is always better than cure.

There are many things that you should do to make the process of getting rid of garbage a little easier. Sometimes you might even need to hire experts for the process to go smoothly. Here are some practical junk removal tips from experts:

Always Seek Help

Don’t try to remove items by yourself. If you have not done any type of work of this sort before, then you could be putting yourself at risk. It’s far too easy to damage things when you are not very experienced. So, if you are going to try to tackle a project like this, it would be wise to enlist the help of someone who knows what they are doing.

Have All of the Materials for the Job Ready

Another practical junk removal tip from experts is to make sure that you have all the appropriate materials for the job.

This is very important so that you don’t waste time. Once you have all of the materials that you need, it’s time to get to the actual junk removal task. Don’t start anything until you have completely emptied your recycle container. You do not want any other items to be put into the container that is not going to end up being recycled.

Make a List of Items You’re Going to Dispose

When you have your equipment ready and positioned, it’s time to begin. First, get rid of any items on your property that you do not need or use. These include old telephones, televisions, exercise equipment, pool toys, furniture, etc. The goal is to get as much of the junk outside, which you no longer use. This way you’ll empty the house of unnecessary clutter lying all around. You can then take your dumpster and other trash bins to the landfill if need be.

The easiest way to go about trash removal is to make a list of the items you want to get rid of. And then tick them one by one as you get rid of them.

Dispose of Items Correctly

Once the junk removal is complete, you will be able to dispose of everything properly. Junk removal services can provide you with help and advice for all of your needs. They will tell you what you can recycle, what you should not, and what you can take to the landfill. They can even give you a quote for removing your junk completely.

That’s why we would advocate for you to hire a professional service to help you out with the junk. Those who insist on DIY junk removal have a lot of trouble during disposal. Yes, you may manage to collect all of the junk together and even place them in a dumpster. But what next? What follows afterward? You’ll still need a mode of transportation for the junk to reach the landfill, for instance.

If you’re collecting just a few junk items, then it makes perfect sense to use DIY methods. But if you have a whole load of items, then it’s wise to consider Property Cleanout Services.

Final Thoughts

By now, you know what junk removal companies can’t take. This is important as you decide on what to call them for. So, before you make that decision, read through the list above first.
