How to Hire Junk Removal Crew

Vancouver waste disposal, garbage bin rental, junk removal vancouver, Student Works Vancouver When you’ve got a major cleanout job to do, you may need help getting all of that junk and trash out of the building and off the property. Bring in a  professional junk removal team to speed up the process.

Cleaning out an entire home, building, or storage unit means sifting through items to determine what’s salvageable and what’s trash. Some items can be kept or resold; others go straight to the recycling center or the local dump. You’ll need somewhere to put junk once it’s out of the building-and chances are, you don’t have the time or energy to drive back and forth to the landfill every hour. That’s where a professional junk removal team comes in, to get that trash off the property and out of your life. When you’re dealing with the loss of a loved one, you want the estate cleanout to be as smooth and painless as possible. A Vancouver junk hauling company will strive to make that happen.

Dumpster Services

For a large-scale junk cleanout, you’re going to need a lot more than a single trash can. Many junk removal companies offer dumpster rental in Vancouver and will drop off the empty dumpster and pick it up when it’s full, based on your schedule. Then, they’ll dispose of the garbage following all local codes and laws.

A dumpster rental can act as a central repository for items that have been officially crossed off your “to-examine” list: once something is in the dumpster, you can move on. Not having to make frequent trips to the landfill or recycling center will also save you time, because you can stay on the property and continue to supervise the cleaning and sorting process.

Heavy Lifting

Student Works Disposal junk removal offers labor, meaning that we’ll not only provide the dumpster and remove the trash, but we’ll also help you carry items out of the home to the truck or dumpster.

Consider whether you need this service based on the scale of the cleanout and your family and friends’ ability to do this heavy lifting yourselves. It will likely cost more, but it can get the job done quickly. Note that when you’re paying for labor, especially if you’re paying by the hour, you may not be able to take the time to sift through every box and bag in search of sentimental items.

Appraisal and Sorting

Professional estate cleanout companies have personnel on staff who can help you determine which of your loved one’s possessions have any resale value. If you’re completing a cleanout under emotional circumstances, it can be easy to assign value to everything the deceased person cared about.

An appraisal expert can bring a sense of perspective to the proceedings. However, if you’re doing an estate cleanout in which you don’t intend to resell anything and simply want to take a few key items home and get rid of the rest, you likely don’t need appraisal and sorting assistance. Rent a dumpster from a trash removal company and go through the items on your own.

When hiring a junk hauling or dumpster rental company to help with your estate cleanout, look for someone who will treat you with compassion and care during what may be a difficult time. The speed and ease gained from professional estate cleaning help will be rendered moot if the company’s representatives are pushy, rude, or disrespectful. Check each company’s Web site to see if they list estate cleaning as one of their specialties, or call to talk to a customer service representative. The right company will understand what you’re going through and do whatever it takes to meet your needs.

Appliance Removal

If you’ve ever tried to move a refrigerator or stove for disposal, you know it’s a difficult job without help. Aside from the heavy lifting dangers associated with appliance removal, improper disposal can also harm the environment.

Many old appliances contain ozone-depleting chemicals that disperse into the air when left to break down in a landfill. Taking the proper steps to handle your appliance removal responsibly not only preserves your back health, but the health of the environment, too.

We recycle appliances whenever possible.

We’re big believers in appliance recycling – why? Here’s some interesting facts that will help answer this question.

  • Recycling 1 ton of paper saves 17 mature trees, 7,000 gallons of water, 3 cubic yards of landfill space, 2 barrels of oil, and 4,100 kilowatt-hours of electricity — enough energy to power the average American home for five months.
  • Recycling paper instead of making it from new material generates 74 percent less air pollution and uses 50 percent less water.
  • Recycling aluminum saves 95% of the energy needed to produce new aluminum from raw materials. Energy saved from recycling one ton of aluminum is equal to the amount of electricity the average home uses over 10 years.
  • When you toss out one aluminum can you waste as much energy as if you’d filled the same can half-full of gasoline and poured it into the ground.
  • Glass never wears out — it can be recycled forever. We save over a ton of resources for every ton of glass recycled — 1,330 pounds of sand, 433 pounds of soda ash, 433 pounds of limestone, and 151 pounds of feldspar.
  • Every year we make enough plastic film to shrink-wrap Texas.
  • Styrofoam is un-recyclable- you can’t make it into new Styrofoam. The industry wants you to assume it is- don’t BUY it!
  • If only 100,000 people stopped their junk, mail, we could save up to 150,000 trees annually. If a million people did this, we could save up to a million and a half trees.
  • Producing one pound of recycled rubber versus one pound of new rubber requires only 29% of the energy.
