When is the best time to clean out my basement?

When it comes to the timing of cleanout projects, the best rule of thumb to follow is the sooner the better. Basement cleanout shouldn’t be put off since we tend to accumulate junk and unwanted items the longer we delay.

If you have several unwanted items such as furniture you’ve just replaced, a pile of old clothes you’re ready to donate, and an appliance or two that no longer works, it will be far easier and faster to clear these items out of your basement. It’s better to have your small amount of items hauled away so you can clear out and use your basement rather than waiting for your basement to fill up before you call us to provide basement cleanout services.

The best thing about our basement cleanout services is that we only charge you based on the space your junk takes in our dumpster-style trucks. We never charge for the time or labor for our junk removal services, so it’s in your best interest to call us as soon as you need us, rather than waiting for more junk and unwanted items to clutter up your basement. When it comes to basement cleanout, always remember, the sooner the better.

How long does estate cleanouts usually take?

We provide estate cleanout service throughout Middlesex County, Connecticut, and one of the questions we’re often asked is how much time it will take our team to complete the job. While we’d love to give a one-size-fits-all answer, the truth of the matter is that every estate cleanout service will vary due to factors such as the size of the job, the location of the items that need to be moved, and the type of objects needing removal.
For example, if the estate in question is a small one-story home, an attached garage, and a storage shed to the side of the property, the time it takes to clean out these spaces will be less than if the estate is a three-story sprawling ranch home, a full three-car garage, a storage barn, a shed, and a lakehouse on the backside of the property. These two scenarios will require different timelines, budgets, and crew sizes to complete the job.
When you call us for estate cleanout services, we can provide you with an estimate based on your specific needs, the size of the estate, and the estimated amount of junk to be removed. Each estate cleanout service is a case-by-case basis due to the complexity of each situation.

What happens with the items that I dispose of?

We provide complete start-to-finish junk removal services for Middlesex County, Connecticut, and that includes appliance removal. We take all appliances, whether they’re in working condition or not. So, what happens to appliances after we take them away?

If you search for appliance removal near me, you’ll find many companies that remove appliances and take them straight to the city dump. We take a different approach. When you contact us for appliance removal, we’ll assess the appliances we take away. The ones that are in good condition will be examined and, if they are still in good working condition and fully functional, they’ll be taken to a local donation center for families in need. This happens many times when families get rid of appliances because they size up or upgrade to the newest version and no longer need their older one.

Appliances that are no longer in working condition will get broken down into recyclable parts and trash. Anything that can be recycled will be, while the remaining junk will be properly disposed of according to state and local regulations. By breaking down non-functioning appliances into recyclable and junk parts, we keep more junk out of the landfill and help keep our communities cleaner and greener than many other companies providing appliance removal.

Is it safe to remove an above-ground pool on my own?

In this day and age, there are tutorials to DIY everything from planting a garden and building a deck to putting on a new roof and removing a pool. The concern for most homeowners and renters, however, is whether DIYing those activities are safe.

When it comes to above ground pool removal, the question of safety largely depends on the material of your pool, the size of pool, and whether you understand how to disassemble it in the safest manner possible. It’s one thing to assemble a pool several years ago after reading all the instructions. It’s another thing entirely to try and remember what you did, how best to take it all down, and whether it’s even safe to do so. As a general rule, if professionals assembled your pool, professionals should probably disassemble it, as well.

You can certainly try your hand at above ground pool removal, but the best and safest way to get it removed is to contact Junk Rats. We have a licensed, insured, professional, and experienced crew who know how to disassemble and remove your pool in the safest way and in the shortest time possible. Why leave your safety to chance when you can have us provide above ground pool removal services for you, instead?

Can I donate my unwanted boat to a charity?

If you have a boat you’re no longer using, you might wonder if a charity will take it off your hands. The answer to this question is ‘maybe.’ If your boat is in perfect condition, then you might be able to donate it to a charity. This means everything must work and the boat must be free of damage or needed repairs.

If your boat doesn’t fit this criteria, then you’ll need a company like Junk Rats to provide you with boat removal services. We are happy to provide boat removal anywhere in Connecticut including Middlesex County. Unlike many boat removal companies that show up on search engines when you search for boat removal near me, we can remove your boat from dry dock storage, from it’s marina slip, and even from your property whether or not it rests on a boat trailer.
