"The call came from work and asked me to move as soon as I could. I hired Moving APT to hurry up the moving process. They were just brilliant. I think some levels of trust are really needed between the client and the moving company because essentially you are entrusting them with everything you own. The movers were very good at building trust. They listened to me, paid attention to packing and carried everything with extra caution. Even the guy on the phone when I first called them seemed very friendly and polite. I felt very comfortable leaving my valuables in their hands for 3 days. When they delivered everything on the due date, there was no harm caused to anything at all. Turns out these men are the best in business and hiring them was a no brainier."
"They did an amazing job cleaning up our yard. Very affordable, great communication, and professional. I would definitely recommend them and I will use their services again!"
"Very prompt, knowledgeable, and professional. We are happy with the worked performed and would recommend using JJs precision excavating. We plan to use them in the future!"
"Matt is very punctual, does a fast but thorough job and as such saves me money overall. I highly recommend him and will be a client of his for the foreseeable future."
"Moving is stressful, and I am so blessed to find a company that was more family to me. I appreciate the time, patience and understanding of my stress. They outlined next steps with compassion. I'm am still unpacking, and it comes with ease as they made sure the boxes, furniture went to the right rooms. I highly recommend this team! Thank you Sun Valley Movers, AKA: Family"
Disposing of old paint, bleach, oil, and fertilizer should be handled by a company that specializes in this kind of waste. Many private junk removal companies do not dispose of these items. Because these materials are hazardous to the environment and dangerous to handle or dispose of improperly, you should confirm with your local municipality about places to take hazardous materials for safe disposal.
You should ask a few questions to ensure that your potential lead removal professional is experienced and qualified to handle lead-paint abatement safely, legally, and properly.
What are your qualifications and experience removing lead-based paint?
Are you licensed and certified to remove lead-based paint?
How do you test for lead paint?
What methods do you use for lead-based paint abatement?
What do you plan to do with the hazardous material when you remove it from the home?
Do you do replacement and painting work or removal only?
If your home was built before 1978, there’s a chance that any paint on your hardwood floors could be lead paint—especially if it was already there when you moved in. Because lead is toxic, hiring a licensed pro to remove it is mandatory. The average price for professional lead paint removal ranges from $1,500 to $5,300 and depends on the scope of the project.
If the lead paint is in a place that is not easily disturbed and is not flaking or deteriorating, you do not necessarily need to remove it. Lead is toxic when dust particles or flakes from peeling lead paint are ingested. If people are not in the area with the lead paint, it may be safe to leave it in place. You still may want to consider encapsulation with a paint formulated for covering lead-based paint, just for an added layer of protection.
No, you can’t place hazardous waste in a dumpster unless you specifically ordered a dumpster for hazardous waste removal. If the dumpster company finds hazardous waste that it didn’t approve for dumping, the company will return the waste to you, and you’ll likely face a fine for illegal dumping.
