Junk King does the junk removal that your County or Municipal garbage collector won't do. You simply point out the items to be removed, sit back, relax and we do the work for you! We can remove anything and everything: garage cleanouts, appliances, e-waste, yard debris, office cleanouts, and construction debris; except hazardous waste. We are a green company, and recycle or donate more than 60% of what we collect. At 18 cubic yards, our trucks are 20% larger than our largest competitor and our prices are lower. This means you get more value for your junk removal dollar. Our price includes all labor, license, and disposal fees. A free estimate is provided before work begins, and we guarantee to beat any written estimate. You'll like our friendly, uniformed employees. We promote excellence and willingness to go the extra mile. We want a lasting relationship with our customer by exceeding their expectations and building trust through excellent performance at the best price.

"Very professional. Arrived early, got to work and got it done. I highly recommend this company. I will be using them again."

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

The two main negatives of garbage disposals are they are a safety hazard in homes with children, and they frequently encounter blockage issues. While they might be annoying to fix and monitor, garbage disposals can significantly lower your trash use and are a great way to dispose of organic waste. While there are negatives, the vast majority of homeowners acknowledge the positives are enough to install a disposal in their home. 

Garbage disposals can be considered bad for the environment due to their electricity usage, but good for the environment because they reduce the food waste sent to landfills. If everyone used a garbage disposal, it would tax the wastewater treatment facilities in that region, but if we had to choose one of the options, we’d say they are a net positive on the environment when used correctly. 

You may be able to install a garbage disposal on your own, especially if you're handy or have some experience with plumbing. However, if you have any concerns or want to make absolutely sure that the connections are installed correctly, you may be better off hiring a local garbage disposal installer to do the job. 

When a dishwasher discharges its wastewater, it uses a pump to quickly move a lot of water. If anything in the drain line or the garbage disposal impedes the high volume of water, it will back up into the sink through the drain or the garbage disposal. Following regular dishwasher maintenance tips like clearing clogs, keeping them cleared, and occasionally running the disposal will eliminate the problem.

Garbage disposals can last between 10 and 12 years, so if your unit is pushing its lifespan, it may be a good idea to replace it. If your unit isn’t approaching the 10-year mark, try investigating other parts of the disposal to see if there's an affordable repair on the horizon. For example, rubber has a shorter lifespan than 10 years, connections and hoses loosen over time, and sink flanges can cause leaks that have nothing to do with disposals.

By submitting this question, I acknowledge and agree that Angi may publicly display my name, city, state, and question on the website for professionals and others to see.
