"Great experience, very prompt and courteous . It was a small job (removed an old couch for disposal), but got it done very quickly and efficiently. Very local for me in Damariscotta and was extremely affordable ($140 less than the only other quote I could get). Very satisfied and would recommend to anyone."

"Keith and his team did a great job. They showed up on time, were enthusiastic. They were very careful when moving the furniture so there were no issues with ding or scrapes in walls and they were respectful of light fixtures. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing moving services"

"I hired Moving APT early last year when I relocated for work. The move was approximately, an 8-hour drive away from my home. Customer service was very responsive and friendly. I would consider the cost of the move fair as it was booked a few weeks out. The only two issues I had were that the movers arrived a day later than I requested. Because of this, I had to stay in a hotel. Also, my boxspring arrived with a hole in it. Basic insurance was included in the cost of my move and customer service kindly expedited payment to me. I have hired other companies for long distance moves in the past and out of all of them, I had the best experience with Moving APT."

Waste Removal Services FAQs, answered by experts

Cardboard is one of the easiest leftover packing materials to upcycle, as you can cut it and glue it to create crafts, drawer organizers, weed blockers for your garden, templates for woodworking, and more—your creativity is your only limitation. Plastic is best for crafts, but depending on the shape, you can use plastic components as indoor planters, organizational baskets, and more. Rubber bands are great for creating grips for jar or bottle lids, preventing clothes from falling off of hangers, or creating a grip for screws in damaged wood.

To cut up a couch for disposal, remove the cushions and fabric first. Then, grab a utility knife to slice the upholstery and expose the frame. Afterward, cut through wood or metal with a handsaw or reciprocating saw. Next, break the couch down into manageable pieces for easier transport and to meet local trash guidelines.

Concrete disposal costs between $0.50 and $2 per square foot of concrete in most cases, but the price can fall outside of that range depending on a few factors. Some of the most important cost factors include the following:

  • Amount of concrete you need hauled away

  • Distance from a proper dump site

  • Whether or not your old concrete can be recycled

  • Add-on services, like concrete demolition and site prep

  • Local dumping costs

Costs depend on material volume, disposal fees, and labor requirements.

Leaf removal isn’t always necessary, and what you should do with leaves in your yard depends on the number of trees you have. Leaving a small amount of leaves to decompose on your property can add nutrients to the soil and help grass, plants, and trees thrive. However, large accumulations of leaves can promote mold and fungal growth, so you should do at least two fall cleanups if you have many trees on your property.
