"I've used The Dump Guy twice now. This last time, I needed our basement cleaned out so we could have a leaking oil tank removed. They gave us an estimate of $1,500 and came out the same week. I know the job was bigger than they expected but the crew stayed at it. Among other things, they hauled out an old stand-up freezer and two large, metal desks. When they were done, I asked how much I owed them and Jason stuck to the estimate. I'll definitely hire The Dump Guy again because they are reliable, honest, and easy to work with."

"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"

Waste Removal Services questions, answered by experts

There are several options for disposing of a water softener. First, you’ll need to empty it of any water, salt, and resin, which can be thrown away in the trash in doubled-up garbage bags. Then, check with your municipal waste management department, which may have guidelines or recommendations. You may be able to put the water softener out with your garbage, or you can often recycle it. Just be sure to follow any local regulations for pickups or drop-offs.

Some scrap yards may offer you money for water softeners that have metal parts, so consider calling local facilities for quotes.

Many fire extinguishers use a dry powder form of monoammonium phosphate to get the job done. To neutralize this chemical, spray or wash the infected area with a solution of three gallons of hot water and one cup of baking soda. Let the mixture stand for a few minutes, and follow that up with a warm water rinse. Finish off the process by washing the area with a mild soap and water solution.

While it's not expected, tipping junk haulers is a kind gesture when the team goes above and beyond for piano disposal. Lugging and breaking down a piano requires specialized equipment, maneuvering, and a lot of strength. When your junk haulers take particularly good care of your home during the process, consider tipping between 10% and 20% of the total bill to split among the team or $10 to $20 per hauler.

If you are having new windows installed, it’s possible that your installer will help you dispose of your old windows for a fee, or at least know who to call in your city for information. You could also look into local recycling centers, such as those run by Habitat for Humanity, which collect old home items. Finally, you could choose to repurpose the materials into something new or see if a neighbor, family member, or friend would like to do so.

Depending on the rules and regulations set by your local municipality or sanitation company, you might be able to place a small amount of bricks in your regular garbage. However, you should call your local government or sanitation company first to double-check. If it’s not allowed, or you’d prefer to recycle them, you can haul them to a recycling facility or hire a trash removal company to pick them up and bring them in for recycling for you.
