Yorba Linda, a city on the OC Junk Hauling route is celebrating this year its 50^th anniversary of being incorporated, but its history as a community in OrangeCounty can be traced back to 1834!

Among the celebratory events have been a Movie in the Park night (timely choice of Back to the Future with 1967-era popular snacks being served), Concerts in the Park, and a recent 5K Fun/Run Walk.

Long History

Yorba Linda’s storied history began in 1834 when Bernardo Yorba was awarded a land grant from the Mexican government for 13,000 acres north of the Santa Ana River (which includes present day Yorba Linda).

After his death in 1858, the land was divided among Yorba’s wife and children. As it happens, in time the land was bought and sold again, some of it ending up in 1908 with the Janss Investment Company, which reportedly named the area Yorba Linda. “Yorba” for the original owner and “Linda,” not for a woman, but because it translates to “beautiful.”

In 1911, there were 35 residents, mostly orange& lemon farmers. By 1960, the population was barely 1200. But whenYorba Linda incorporated in 1967, the community was a robust 11,433!

Former U.S. President Richard Nixon is Yorba Linda’s most famous resident. The Richard M. Nixon Library is based there.

The city has seen continued growth in shopping centers, jobs and housing units.OC Junk Hauling congratulates Yorba Linda on its 50^th Anniversary.

“A house is just a place to keep your stuff while you go out and get more stuff.” That memorable quote from comedian George Carlin is an interesting one when you think about moving time. What will you do with all that stuff? Give it away? Trade it? Sell it? Junk it? Or take it with you?

We found this usefulGet Organized Wizard blog by Michele Connally that creates (what else?) an organized progression of the steps to take. Her opening line says it all:

Anything that doesn’t serve you, doesn’t earn a place in your life.

Shoes you don’t wear. An old lamp or toaster that you don’t use, sitting in the closet “just in case.” Faded shutters in the basement. Beat up metal trash cans in the corner of the garage.

The blog breaks down your classification of actions into three categories:

• When To Sell Your Clutter
• When To Donate Your Clutter
• When To Throw Away Your Clutter

At OC Junk Hauling we are ready to help in the 2^nd& 3rd areas. Each year, Americans generate between 250 and 400 million tons of garbage — all of which requires landfill space. But it doesn’t have to go to landfills.

We have mentioned before a process we use called upcycling.

• a dresser could be repurposed into an antique bathroom vanity.
• shutters could be turned into sofa table tops or headboards.
• galvanized metal trash cans could be converted into planters for flowers.

We upcycle/donate/recycle/reuse approximately 85% of the materials we remove. This helps us provide our clients with the best prices while at the same time keeping Orange County clean & beautiful.

“What’s mine is yours dear, and what’s yours is mine.” Marriage is such a sharing experience, right? Well… not so much with personal stuff when moving into your first place. At OC Junk Hauling we’ve seen enough disasters in the making after two separate apartments or homes merge into one and the front lawn ends up looking like a long-term flea market.

If you need items hauled away, we will gladly do it, just call OC Junk Hauling when you’re ready. We will provide you with an immediate, on-the-spot quote and take all away quickly and cleanly. Either from your old place or new one.

But let’s talk about what you can do to lessen the stress of merging personal possessions.

Clear Out Clothes Closet

Your goal is to live together, but obviously, you don’t want skirts and shirts intermingled in the closet. Each of you needs space to set up shop. Mentally dividing the closet evenly before moving in will force you to minimize your wardrobe while still in your old place. Why create extra boxes to ship ($) only to have to throw them away ($$) when no space is available. Or then you must both rotate your winter and summer items not in your closet or garage but in a storage unit ($$$).

Also, clothing needs to be unpacked first. Wrinkles are not what you want to talk about the next day at work. So, we suggest that you not only mark your boxes as John and Mary, but also John’s bedroom closet(suits & pants), Mary’s bedroom closet(blouses & skirts). This way you are unpacking “hanger” items first, before “drawer” or “shelf” items.

Living Room Next

After you do the bathroom, kitchen, etc., you may want to just crash for a few minutes in a chair, rest, watch TV or listen to soothing music. Oops, you didn’t set up the living room yet. So, outside of finding one box that says “bathroom, toilet paper, hand towels” for either of you, the next move should be the living room after bedroom closet.

You need to see whose chair is going where, bookcases on what wall, do your furniture items match when you finally see them together or does one of you need to sacrifice— or just dump it all and get new couch & love seat ensemble that you both select as a couple.

And that is where we circle back to OC Junk Hauling. Once the decision is made as to what needs to go, you don’t want it haunting you in a corner or backyard or front lawn.

Rest of House

Proceed with set up and distribution of other rooms in the same manner. Deep mark each box at the starting point: John kitchen, pots & pans; Mary kitchen, dishes & bowls. And where you have similar items, decide to either mix or storage or just add to the “to go” pile for us to take away.
