What does junk removal include?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-secrets-about-junk-hauling-services.htm">Junk removal</a> usually includes removing unwanted items from your property, loading it into a dumpster or a truck, and then carting the junk off of your property to be disposed of at a dump site. In most cases, your dumping fees—charged by the dump site—are included in your estimate, but you might want to confirm this expense with your junk removal team. Some junk removal companies offer additional services, like a deep clean after junk removal and moving and packing services, in case you’re getting rid of garbage as part of your relocation efforts.</p></div>

Can I do my own leaf removal?

• <div><p>Yes, you can conduct your own leaf removal, but consider that keeping up with leaf removal is time-consuming and requires regular yard work throughout the fall. The process can take a few hours a week. Professionals have lawn equipment that can speed up the process and save you time. Additionally, consider how you’ll dispose of the leaves. If your sanitation company won’t pick them up—especially if you have many bags from a once-annual cleanup— you’ll have to drive the bags to the dump. It’s usually easier to leave the work and disposal to a professional leaf removal service.</p></div>

Q: Which packaging material is not recyclable?

• <div><p>The only packing material that isn&rsquo;t often recyclable is rubber, but rubber bands aren&rsquo;t common for packing and moving. Some materials used for moving, like cardboard, paper, and hard plastic, are easy to recycle and can often just go out for regular pickup with your other recyclables, like cans and bottles. Plastic films and packing peanuts can be a bit more difficult to recycle and usually need to go to a dedicated recycling facility that can handle those specific materials.</p></div>

Q: Can I throw a bottle of ammonia or ammonia-based cleaner away?

• <div><p>No, you cannot throw away a bottle of ammonia or ammonia-based cleaner in your regular garbage. Instead, dilute it and pour it down the drain or dispose of it in the trash as a neutralized solid material. You can also contact local chemical companies to see if they&rsquo;ll accept unused containers of ammonia since it does not expire.</p></div>

Q: What type of construction debris will junk removal companies take?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-secrets-about-junk-hauling-services.htm">Junk removal companies will take</a> most non-hazardous construction debris and items that don't require special disposal methods. Construction waste may include concrete, drywall, wood, metal, brick, fixtures, and finishes. Hazardous items such as paint or chemicals require special removal services and extra fees. Ask your junk removal provider for a list of accepted materials. </p></div>
