We are frequently asked by Realtors about the different types of "junk" we can remove.  Some people think we just do residential work (we also do a ton of commercial work; think malls, self storage companies, contractors, etc).  Some think we just want items of value (we don't, we are a junk removal service and don't look for items of value because we donate, recycle or dispose of the junk).  Often people think we are a free service (sorry, the employees got tired of being paid with pats on the back).  We even get the question of how long do you leave the dumpster? (We don't rent out dumpsters, we send out a clean shiny truck, two uniformed and trained employees that do all of the loading and cleanup no matter where the junk is located including basements, attics, crawl spaces, storage units, etc).

The biggest hurdle is to get our potential customers to think about the "unique" items we can haul away.  Here are some visuals to help you and your clients think about cleaning up that property to help sell it faster!

Hot Tubs - When it cracks, gets old or just is not your thing anymore, we can take it away.  Most times we can do it without cutting it up into pieces.  But we can demolish it if it can't be lifted.

Sheds - Does your shed remind you of the Leaning Tower of Pisa?  Do you have all of the neighborhood animals living in or under your shed?  We will tear it down and clean up the ground afterwards.

Swing Sets - Are the kids in college and you still have that rusted or splintered swing-set out back?  We will take it down, load it up and haul it away.

Swing Sets

Dirt/Concrete/Stone- Doing some DIY work?  Old pavers, broken up concrete or stone from a project?  Using shovels, wheelbarrows and other tools, we can make it disappear.

Concrete

Appliances/Refrigerators/Air Conditioners - Everyone has these old appliances lurking around in their home or business.  Refrigerators, A/C units and dehumidifiers all contain Freon, so we will dispose of them properly.  Taking our large and heavy appliances from basements and garages are our specialty.  Our team will make history of it.

Appliances

Above-ground Pools - Pool rusted out?  Becoming an eyesore? Get rid of it!  We can disassemble it for you too.

Pool

Construction Debris - Old kitchens, bathrooms, drywall, carpet, tile, 2x4's, etc.  We can handle it.  You rip it down; we come in and take it away.  We will sweep up when we are done!

Computers/Electronic Waste -There is a ton of bad stuff in old electronics including lead, mercury and other toxins.  Don't put it at the curb; we can get these recycled properly.  Yes, that is me on top of a heap of computers...

Computers

Yard Waste - Have a pile of old branches, leaves, grass or other yard debris?  Clean up that yard and make it that oasis you dreamed of!

So, as you can see, there are a lot of ways we can help remove many different types of items from your or your client's home!

Hey Eric......Looks like YOU ARE THE MAN for getting rid of all the unwanted junk. When that unfortunate day arrives that my father passes away, I will be hiring a fleet of you all to clean out his home.

I had 1-800-JUNK come to my parents old house and they were terrific.  They found some real treasures that even after I had owned and lived in the house for four years had no idea were stuffed in the crawl space.  I recommend the service to all my clients who need clean out service!

Sean-Thanks for the compliment.  We are the best!  I hope you don't need us for many, many years.

Hey Eric,

I made a couple of small changes to your post and threw it up on my site.  Thanks again.  I got a few comments right away.  Maybe the FP in Vermont will get some jobs out of it.  Enjoying this site.  Hope you are having a great hauliday season.  Chris
