Television Disposal & Recycling

With the advent of large flat screen TVs, millions of Americans buy newer, bigger screens every year. This means that there are potentially millions of "old" screens. The problem is how to dispose of televisions that either don’t work or no one wants?

An old television– especially an old cathode ray tube, or CRT, model - can survive for 20 to 30 years. Because of their longevity and the fact that they are also extremely heavy, people tend to leave them around instead of taking steps to get rid of them.

Televisions are constructed in two ways. The old technology included the use of cathode ray tubes, or CRTs. The more recent approach is the flat screen variations.

The large, pyramid-shaped assembly with a television screen on the front end is the CRT. These devices are heavy and somewhat fragile, which is a problem because of the contents of the CRT.

A typical CRT can contain up to eight pounds of lead, a layer of cadmium-based phosphorus and other toxic heavy metals. Normally, a CRT is not a health threat. However, if the glass on a CRT breaks, it can release the lead and other materials into the air or ground.

Even flat screen TVs present a hazard for disposal. While not as hazardous as lead-filled glass CRTs, old flat screen TVs still contain a variety of toxins and hazardous materials, in addition to wood, plastics, copper wiring and circuit boards.

Part of the problem with getting rid of an old "new" television, such as the flat screen type, is the sheer bulk and size of the units. The fact is that flat screen TV disposal can be a problem leaving many owners wondering what to do with an old TV that still works?

Giving them back to the manufacturer or retailer is sometimes an option. In fact, many major brands and retailers have programs for accepting old products, even if they no longer work. In addition, some retailers offer collection programs for recycling flat screen televisions.

Recycling, of course, is always the best option for old televisions that do not work.

There are a few issues to consider with television disposal and television recycling. Electronic waste, or e-waste, has special electronic recycling requirements. Because of the laws and regulations in states such as California, many items such as monitors, TVs, and even cell phones cannot go into the waste stream. What's more, when you want to properly dispose of a computer monitor - particularly any old CRT devices you still have around - the process takes time, effort and money.

One easy option is to call Junk King for your broken television disposal or old tv recycling.

Clean Out Services

Foreclosure Cleanout Services

One of the issues with foreclosed properties is the junk left by former homeowners. Unfortunately, many prior residents have little or no incentive to clean their foreclosed home when they vacate the property.

While a minor house cleaning is almost always certainly in order, for the real estate professional needing to put a foreclosed property on the market, there is often a need for a major foreclosure clean up.

The issue for realtors is whether it is a task that should be done themselves or outsourced?

In most circumstances, a foreclosed home needs a great deal of preparation before it can be made ready for an open house. And when a Realtor has a large inventory of vacated properties the best approach is to hire a foreclosure cleanout service. The reason is that, while cleaning and repairing a foreclosed property is essential, the real challenge is hauling away old furniture, appliances and unwanted items that were left behind.

A typical foreclosed property requires a great deal of work before it is even in a condition to be put on the market. REOs, short sale and foreclosure transactions are complex and time-sensitive. Consequently, property cleaning is often required on short notice and cleanouts need to be completed within a strict time-frame.

Once you decide to outsource the debris removal for your foreclosed home, choose the firm that is the right one for the job.

You can depend on Junk King for speed, reliability and for the peace of mind that comes with getting your property ready fast.

Estate Cleanout Services

An estate cleanout is often needed because of a major lifestyle change, the death of a family member, a divorce, or crippling debt. In addition to almost 10,000 Americans turning 65 each day, there are many others who simply need help with an estate clean up.

Regardless of the reasons, the task of removing furniture, appliances, household goods and other items can be difficult and challenging.

Often, an elderly parent or grandparent will have accumulated years of belongings that may fill both the house and the garage. This doesn’t even include rented storage units, or storage sheds they might have had. Having to separate and haul all of it out can be overwhelming. The good news is you don’t have to do it yourself.

Home Cleanout Services

When homeowners move out of the home they are selling, and before that home can be sold, real estate agents often need real estate cleanout services. Before the sale of a home, some large trash pick-up and de-cluttering often needs be done, which is why companies that clean out homes are a vital asset for real estate agents.

A home clean out is often needed for rental properties, as well. Renters usually move far more often than homeowners and a vacant home or apartment doesn’t generate rental income. So, it’s important to have properties cleaned and uncluttered as quickly as possible.

Having a professional junk removal company for a home cleanout can be a huge asset in times like these.

Garage Clean-out Services

If you can park your cars in your garage you’re in the minority. It fact, less than 20 percent of homeowners and renters in the US actually use their garage for parking cars. Instead, most people use the garage as a personal "storage unit."

The problem with garage storage isn't a lack of space, but how to best use the existing space. Regardless of whether you have a small, one car garage or a large three car structure, simply stacking boxes, storage containers and piles of junk is not efficient.

And, when you finally get all your stuff separated and organised, you may still end up with a pile of junk you need to get rid of. If you can’t sell it or donate it, or don't want to take the time to try, you’re going to need help cleaning out garage junk and debris.

A garage clean up and good organisation will make your garage space inviting and usable.
