Junk removal 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.

Mattresses are often hard to get rid of because they’re considered hazardous waste, so most municipalities, recycling centers, and donation centers all have strict rules for how you can safely dispose of them. Additionally, mattresses are heavy and bulky, so maneuvering them out of your home and hauling them away can be a challenge, even if local regulations for disposal are lax.

To remove carpet padding glue from concrete, scrape away as much of the top layers as possible with a sharp-edged scraper or putty knife. You can be more aggressive on a concrete floor than on hardwood, so scrape off as much as possible. Then you can soak the area with hot water for a few minutes before continuing to scrape. If there is still glue left behind, use a solvent that is made to remove adhesives and apply it to the area. Then scrape the rest of the glue off.

Pool filter disposal depends on the type of fool filter, and you’ll need to check the regulations in your area. A cartridge filter goes to a recycling center, pool supply store, or hazardous waste collection center. 

Sand and DE pool filter media can be used under or around pavers but shouldn’t be used in gardens. Sand you can’t reuse might need to go to a landfill, or a service can pick it up. Glass media can be cleaned and put back into the filter. However, a small amount of glass is lost during each cleaning, so you may periodically need to add glass media to maintain filtration.
