"I recently used this company for a large junk removal job, I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Scheduling was easy, they showed up on time, the crew was friendly and respectful of my space. If you’re looking for a reliable junk removal, or help clearing out building materials or waste I’d definitely recommend Junk Amore & Haulage."

My team and I have been hauling junk and clearing spaces for a few months now, and in that time we’ve tackled everything from single-item pickups to full estate cleanouts, garage overhauls, and post-renovation debris. No job is too big or too small — even after some time we’ve seen a lot. \n\nWe proudly serve North Jersey including surrounding areas such as Hunterdon, Somerset and Middlesex and we’re happy to travel further for larger jobs — just ask.\n\nWhat sets us apart is our efficient same-day service, careful handling of your home and belongings, eco-friendly and biohazard disposals, donation drop-offs, heavy-lifting and tight-space experience. We know how to work quickly without cutting corners, and we always leave a space cleaner than we found it.\n\nAt the end of the day, we believe junk removal should be stress-free. You point, we haul — no judgment, no hassle, no mess left behind. Our goal is to make your space feel like yours again, and we treat every job like it’s our own home.

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

The most common garbage disposal size in the U.S. is 1/2 horsepower. This size is ideal for households with three or fewer people or those that don't produce much food waste. Although 1/2 horsepower can't handle the typical food waste load for a household of four (which is about 250 pounds of food waste annually) as effectively as 3/4 horsepower, it remains the most common size of garbage disposal on the market.

Soil is just one of the items you shouldn't put down a garbage disposal. Garbage disposals are only meant for soft, non-fibrous foods. Large amounts of topsoil, dirt, or rocks will damage the blades of your garbage disposal or clog the pipes. If a small amount of dirt goes down the drain as you repot a plant, you shouldn't have to worry, but never dump a whole pot of soil in the sink for fast disposal.

There are many maintenance and repair issues that lead to a malfunctioning garbage disposal. Regular clogs place wear and tear on the motors, leading to an eventual shutdown. Electrical issues at the breaker, wall outlet, or disposal itself can fry the unit. The most common cause is simply a worn-down motor. These motors can only handle so much use before powering down for good. 

In some cases, it’s more cost-effective in the long run to replace a garbage disposal, but it depends on the specific issue you’re having and the age of your disposal. You should ask a garbage disposal repair tech for a quote to repair your appliance and then see if it would be more worthwhile to replace it. Additionally, garbage disposals last for around 15 years, so if you know your appliance is reaching that age, it’s likely better to pay for a new garbage disposal rather than sink money into repairs.

No, you do not need a garbage disposal to have a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without one, and while it's rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn't have a disposal, it is possible. The two appliances pair well and are often installed together because a disposal simplifies meal cleanup.

However, your dishwasher should not be used as a replacement for a garbage disposal. Subjecting it to continuous food leftovers can lead to major clogs. If you choose not to install a garbage disposal, you should thoroughly rinse your plates or scrape excess food into the trash or a compost pile before loading them into the dishwasher to prevent plumbing issues.
