This is Halloween, This is Halloween…Time to Haul Out Old Junk

Get Organized For Halloween in Orange County

All of us at OC Junk Hauling want to wish everyone a Happy Fall and an enjoyable beginning to the holiday season. Everyone loves the holidays and it seems each year the “holiday season” starts earlier and earlier and last longer. As soon as September closes the “Halloween Month” begins, then its “Thanksgiving Month,” then the “Chanukah –Christmas” month, finally ending for a bit on New Years. These are some fun times for most families. You get to switch up foods, buy candy, and put up decorations. You’ll buy new decorations for the home and yard, as well as, put up your old favorites. Giant pumpkins, scary monsters, cobwebs—your imagination is the limit. As you go through your attic, basement, or garage looking for decorations for the house and yard you now have an excuse to throw stuff out and begin to clean things up (and make room for more, of course).

Decorations can only go so long without getting broken, faded, dusty, or even nibbled on my critters. No decoration lasts forever, and those that go outdoors then come back to a damp basement or garage certainly won’t. This is the best time, right before Halloween, as you are pulling out decorations to also get rid of the ones that are broken or in bad shape. Routinely we throw out yellow Christmas trees this time of year for our clients that were once white but are now yellow with age. After all, who wants a yellow Christmas tree or a dilapidated giant pumpkin?

The good part about clearing out old decorations is being able to then get new ones. The stores are filled with the neat new designs each year, and when you are willing clean up the broken ones and get them to the junkyard you deserve to be able to buy more. It seems like each year the decorations get more high tech, more exciting, and even cheaper. When we were kids no one had the giant inflatables except shopping centers and event stores. Today everyone has them.

It’s that time of year to haul out old junk and bring in new fun. At OC Junk Hauling we’re excited to help you in this endeavor. We are professional residential junk haulers who not only remove furniture, mattresses etc. but we also haul out old junk decorations . We, too, have the holiday spirit and love seeing homes dressed up. We’re here to help you make room for more of the good stuff.

The Hidden Costs Of Junk Removal

Honest Junk Hauling Pros in Orange County

We’ve all experienced this before in a service industry. You hire a company for a job, they show up and suddenly that job is more expensive or there are details that weren’t allegedly in the estimate, and suddenly you were talked into more effort and money than you had originally agreed upon. This happens in every industry, even junk removal. Bait and switch sales techniques are illegal, although they are hard to prove. Essentially a company will advertise services for a below cost price or a price lower than the norm just to get customers to allow them into the home for an appointment. Once there, the team will tack on reasons for why it should be a more expensive job. Some customers will go along with it because you’re already in the home or because they really need that service.

OC Junk Hauling does not do this. OC Junk Hauling is a local Orange County based family owned business and we are always upfront with our customers about our pricing and surcharges. We want to always make an effort to create an environment and reputation of trust. This is why we provide free estimates and even pictures of loads so that the customer has a very good idea of what we will charge on the day that we show up to work. Our in-home free estimates enable us to give you a better price as we cannot always estimate the correct price till we see what your junk pile looks like. Estimation tools are one way to help keep the cost down or let customers better understand the pricing, however, they’re not perfect. We can estimate prior loads but once we get into a home there may be more items than they had originally showed our estimators. However, we do our best to ensure that does not happen. We also explain upfront why some items cost more to dispose of—they cost us more to dispose. Mattresses and tires are both items that we are charged extra for, as well as, items that cannot be recycled or are not biodegradable.

The costs of doing business in an extremely regulated county like ours can be high, especially when it comes to an area that the citizens here take seriously, like waste. We do our best to keep our prices low enough that our clients can afford them, but honest enough that we can pay the taxes, fees, and our employees. This isn’t always easy today but we believe that we have an efficient, well-run machine and that an honest business can stay afloat because an honest business will get referrals. For this reason, we always tell you those costs that could be added into the job upfront so everyone knows what they are getting into.
