We spent about three months selling antiques, collectibles, and some appliances. We wanted to sell as much as we could both to return cash to the family and because we didn’t want our Aunt’s possessions just to go in the garbage. But after three months  we were left with about four rooms filled with, well, less than desirable stuff. Junk essentially. 

Summer was coming and the real estate agent that agreed to sell my Aunt’s property wanted to get it on the market by the Summer. So we were faced with a conundrum. How do we clean up a house and get it ready to show in about two months?

We called a junk removal service. The junk removal service we called specialized in estate clean ups and they had done this a million times before. Using a junk removal service saved everyone else a lot of time and did our estate clean up in about a day.

So if you need to clean up an estate I’d highly recommend calling a junk removal service.

I hate trash, i really do i despise it! Why you may ask? Well let me tell you a story about trash and lies. Junk removal was my business, i would show up and get rid of trash and debris from residential and commercial properties. One day i arrived to get rid of a large dump load from a city parade the previous day and had way too many items to take of myself. When i arrived, the customer had already been given an estimate over the phone. Approximate, but not exact they were given the closest price that would befit what was described over the phone.

When me and my workers arrived we were ready to go and get the job done just as we always do. We did the hard work and picked up all of the junk and trash that the customer had available. It was a tough and grueling job because it was also about the hottest recorded date of the summer so far!

After we were done and used our teamwork to get rid of all the junk we met up with the customer to settle up on payment. It was a little more than what they described over the phone so we gave them the correct and fair price. The customer then refused to pay the amount! Can you believe that a person would do that? They argued with me until i had no choice left but to waste another 40 minutes on this job as we unloaded all of the trash and placed it in the same spot we had lifted it from. This was one of the worst junk removal jobs i had to do because of a finicky customer!

But the computers, tablets, and smartphones that connect us to the world also have a short lifespan. Most people, for instance, upgrade their phone every 18 months. Oh look brand new shiny phone. But what happens to the old one? You have a couple options: resell, a trade-in recycling program, or (if you have a lot of electronics; like computers and old monitors) call a junk removal service in Los Angeles.

Resell… If you are a frequent upgrader reselling your electronics is a profitable way to get rid of old electronics. Popular electronics, like iPads and MacBooks, tend to hold their value over time. You can frequently make up half the price of an upgrade by reselling your electronics. I’ve owned four new MacBooks and barely paid $1,200 a piece for them, because I resold my old laptop at a decent market price.

Recycle … Most companies, including Apple and Amazon, offer a trade-in option for electronics. You mail them your used electronics and accessories, and they assess a value and pay you in the form of a gift card. There are also third party electronic trade-in companies that will pay you cash (well a check or PayPal). Trading in your electronics tends to reward you with less cash but takes away the hassle of selling electronics yourself. Also trade-in programs eliminate the very real risk of meeting a criminal on Craig’s List and having your sale items stolen.

Junk Removal Services … Obviously, you wouldn’t call a junk removal service in Los Angeles to pick up an 18 month old smartphone. But if you have a pallet of 18 month old smartphones, or more likely a big office that has a lot older computers and monitors that are no longer in use a junk removal service makes sense. Junk removal services in the Los Angeles can help you dispose of large amounts of electronics. Junk removal services also recycle most of what they pick up so you can rest assured that your old electronics won’t end up back in a landfill.
