OC Junk Hauling is a locally owned business and not a franchise. We proudly serve Orange County and the surrounding communities.

Obviously, as junk haulers we do have a dog in this fight, so we understand that you will read this blog post with a grain of salt.  People in the junk hauling business are going to naturally advocate for hauling it away.  That said it doesn’t negate the truth behind our argument for why it’s better to have your stuff hauled off than to purchase dumpsters.  So now that we’ve put a caveat on this blog post let’s get down to the nitty gritty: Dumpsters are ugly, expensive, and you’ll probably need two of them considering this is Orange County.

Who the heck wants large ugly dumpsters sitting in front of their house in any kind of decent neighborhood?  What neighbors want to see that either?  Dumpsters are perfect when you are doing construction, but not so great just for cleaning out unwanted items.

We actually even take Construction Cleanup

Furthermore, due to recycling laws and codes most of you will require two separate dumpsters, which doubles the cost.  So that’s two ugly dumpsters in front of your house until they can be hauled away.

And then there’s the labor involved…

You still have to perform manual labor.  It is you that will go into the attic or basement to haul out couches, tables, electronics, papers, magazines, dishes you won’t use, lamps, clothing, bedding, and those old board games your great aunt gave you with the missing pieces.  When you choose junk hauling we come to you.  We move all of that.  We haul it off same day.  No labor, no problem.

Dumpsters are really for single young men who don’t mind sweating in the heat, straining muscles, or getting mold in their lungs.  Not really for working adults or anyone of a certain age. Ahem. OC Junk Hauling is a family of movers with people who have all the right equipment to do it.  Why get a dumpster when you can just call us to move it out?

Your junk removal options in Orange County

You don’t have to be a candidate for Hoarders to need items removed from the home or professional assistance.  Everyone has junk they meant to throw out but never did, or items that they cannot or do not use anymore.  In most cases these items pile up, get stored, collect dust and are never used again.  In fact, some of them will gather so much dust over time that they can be a health hazard.  Junk removal services in Orange County are here for you to help you get rid of those items before that happens, and for those items that are still usable we can help you find a home for them.  Taking items that you are not using and donating them can be not only beneficial to your home, but also can be written off on taxes at the end of the year.

How can having junk in your home affect you

OC Junk Hauling is one of those companies that you call that can help you to remove those items from the home that are either damaged or you are no longer using.  We can help you to dispose of those items which need to be disposed of because they are broken or moldy, and find those items which can be recycled, sold, or donated.  One man’s junk is another man’s treasure, as they say and plenty of broken items find their way to the loving arms of others who will repair them or use parts of them for other things.  Some items can be broken down and recycled into new materials, while still more can be used to help other people who are in need.

Charitable organizations like Goodwill are happy to relieve you of items you are no longer using.  When you donate to an organization like Goodwill you are helping them to maintain a list of services that change lives.  Programs like the Tierney Center Veterans Program that helps veterans transition into civilian life or Good Learning where anyone who needs a job can go to learn new skills.  Your old couch or clothing can make a huge difference in the lives of others.  When you donate to these organizations you are not only getting rid of items that clutter your home, but also helping others to achieve important life goals. OC Junk Hauling recycles almost 85% of unwanted items that we pick up from homes and businesses around Orange County. Get more information on our charitable donation services.

Our services are great when you need to clean out your basement, garage or attic, when moving into a new home or out of one, when renovating space, or even having children move out.  We are a family-owned and operated company that lives in Orange County and knows where items can go for reuse and where they can be recycled.  We move items both large and small for our clients.  When you choose our junk removal services you will always have someone who is polite, mannerly, and capable of doing the task without injury.  We bring the right equipment, the right people, and the right attitude to every job.

Four Ways of Getting Rid of Furniture

We’ve all been there.  We have all had that broken down furniture with springs poking through or legs coming off, but we just don’t have the energy (or a truck) to get it out of the house.  So it sits, and sits and sits some more until we try to move it to a place where it can’t be seen…and then it hides out there until someone asks us why we still have it around.  No judgments.  We’ve been there, too, and we’re junk removers.  The fact is you’re never going to get around to reupholstering that chair or putting new legs on the table and staining it.  It’s best to just get rid of it, so you can get something you can sit on or use.  Here are some suggestions for getting rid of furniture:

• Craigslist—Craigslist has a furniture section AND a free section where you can advertise things that you no longer want or need to get rid of. That old adage about one man’s junk is another man’s treasure?  Craigslist proves that daily.  Someone with more time might fix that table, chair, or bookcase and give it new life.
• Donate it—there are plenty of charities out there that do take free furniture. We work with several local charities plus Goodwill to Salvation Army. Plenty of nonprofits take furniture that can be used by others, and some will even take furniture that needs to be repaired.  Call around and see who will take what.
• Call your local theater—this is one very few people think about, but is really a good option. Many theater companies accept donations because it’s cheaper than buying items for a production.
• Recycle it—Check your local waste facility. It may accept items for recycling.  Of course you’ll have to take it there, but its better than letting it sit unused in your home.

Trust OC Junk Hauling with getting rid of your furniture

There are plenty of other solutions for it like giving it away to someone, leaving it on the corner in the dark of night with a “FREE” sign, setting it on fire—those types of things.  All of them still require the furniture being moved, though.  This is where we come in.  We are junk removers, but we’re also furniture movers, as well.  We remove unwanted items from homes all the time and find a place for them.  We can drop it off at donation centers or at the facility of your choice, and whenever possible, we recycle. We have an industry envied rate of donating or recycling almost 85% of all junk and unwanted items that we remove. We seriously care about the environment!

As a family-owned business here in OC, we like to help people like you with your problems.  We’re not some large chain of junk removers who hires new people every week.  We have the same, trust-able team that can provide you with the service you need at affordable prices, and with greater reliability.  We don’t reschedule.  We don’t change prices.  We do the job at the price you’re quoted.

OC Junk Hauling is Orange County’s #1 Junk Removal Service

Stress free office junk removal in Orange County

OC Junk Hauling doesn’t just work with individuals.  We help businesses, as well.  One area that we’d like to touch on is clutter.  A business is judged by its aesthetics, and that means not only layout but also cleanliness and lack of clutter.   You can give your business a design face lift, simply by moving out those pieces which you no longer need.  Here’s why:

It Could Improve Your Energy

Feng Shui is a popular decorating style that is used by many interior designers to improve energy and appearance of a space.  Many California businesses have adopted these principles with what they believe is great results.  Feng Shui designs begin by removing clutter.  Clutter ads distraction and pulls down the energy flow of a room—or so they say.  While we’re not Feng Shui experts we do know that a cluttered space feels like the owner of that space is a cluttered person.  The same will be true of a business.  Businesses that have a lot of open space and are airy feel “cleaner” and more professional than those that have too much furniture, art, or knick-knacks.

Sending Mixed Signals

Beyond Feng Shui there is something to be said for subconscious impressions.  Walking into a professional space with either worn or outdated furniture will give the subconscious impression that your business is outdated or not doing well.  It is better to have less furniture for your guests, than furniture that is cracked or broken looking.

One Man’s Trash is Another Man’s Treasure

As junk removal experts we know a lot about hidden treasures.  Sometimes what you think is junk could be treasure for a nonprofit or poorer individual.  Your 3-year-old computer desks and laptops could help a nonprofit add another volunteer or give someone space to learn a new trade.  Your old couch that has a crack in the leather could be refurbished for a college grad or half-way house.

Improving Health

Over the years, furniture, art, and appliance can collect dangerous molds and dusts.  There is such a phenomenon as “Sick Building Syndrome”, where employees all routinely pass illnesses and issues through touching furniture, computers, or just breathing recycled air that has too much dust, pollen, or mold.  Removing old items every once in a while and giving the office a good cleaning can improve overall health.

There are plenty of good reasons to move that junk out of your space and we at OC Junk Hauling are more than happy to help.  We’ll not only remove it, but also work to find ways of recycling it wherever possible.  You will not only update your look, but also possible improve productivity and reduce sick days.  Everyone reacts positively to clean space.  Here is your opportunity to improve your corporate image and invigorate your employees and customers alike.

Responsible Carpet Removal in Orange County

We are junk removers.  That’s what we do.  It’s not glamorous.  We’re not going to win an Oscar or the Nobel Prize, but we do get the occasional homemade cake or a hug from a delighted grandmother who didn’t have to remove her sofa and haul it to the dump herself.  We do those tasks that no one else wants to do, and we’re grateful to do it.  There is no job in this world anyone is too good for.  We are able to save you time, back pain, headaches, annoyance, and sometimes even money, just by clearing clutter, removing heavy objects, and yes, at times, removing carpet.  We will pull up carpet, but we’ll also haul it away if you pulled it up yourself.  Just remember on that note…

It aint fun!

Carpet removal is not a fun task.  There is a reason why you want to pay other people to do it.  Carpet and padding are heavy, and removing them is not as easy as it looks.  You’re cutting, pulling, rolling, and carrying for hours to get it up and out of the home.  It may look like it’s thin material, but hundreds of square feet of it gets pretty darn heavy—and  if it’s soaked due to flooding, well, you might as well call Hercules because it’s gonna be quite a labor.

Unexpected surprises

Most people don’t have their home built from scratch.  Usually, you are the second, third, or fourth person to live in them.  Pets, kids, teens—and even adults are incredibly hard on carpet and flooring.  Pet urine seeps down into the carpet, padding, and sometimes the particle board beneath.  Typically when you pull the carpet up you are dealing with padding that will take your breath away.  Damp areas will also have other, less “desirable” critters sometimes beneath the carpet and padding.  You have no idea the things we’ve found pulling up carpet, in fact, you might be frightened by some of the things we’ve found under carpet.

I’m not saying we’ve ever found a dead body, but I’m not saying it’s impossible.  *winks*

All jokes aside, it’s not a fun task and certainly not one you want to do yourself if you can avoid it.  Like all junk removal, we’re doing more than taking away things you no longer want or need, we’re removing headaches.  We’re keeping you from pulling out your hair, fighting with the people you love, cutting yourself on razors, and helping you to avoid back strain and injury.

We’re affordable

OC Junk Hauling’s carpet removal isn’t the most expensive service we have, nor is it the cheapest but like with all other services we try to keep it affordable. We are Orange County’s friendliest, family owned junk removal business. We are cost conscious AND eco conscious. We know that we provide a service, but we also know it’s a service that you could do yourself if you had a lot of time, patience, and muscle.  Give OC Junk Hauling a call and we can help you out and get it done as quickly and cleanly as possible so you can go back to doing other things.  We can give you a FREE estimate with no obligation so you have nothing to lose!

In recent years, the phenomena of “hoarding” has gotten a lot more attention. This is thanks in part to a formal medical recognition of extreme hoarding as a psychological condition, and in part due to a number of popular TV shows referencing “hoarding.” For many of us, our hoarding is nowhere as extreme as these concepts may lead us to believe; however, there is still a decent chance that clutter and excessive items could be having a negative impact on your life. A recent survey conducted by the Huffington Post found that home organization is a significant source of stress for many Americans. Here are just a few of the ways that clutter can have a real impact:

• Increases the number of allergens and germs in your home.
• Creates a fire hazard.
• Poses other physical risks such as tripping, falling objects, etc.
• Creates anxiety by making simple objects difficult to find.
• Fosters stress and a feeling of being overwhelmed.
• Creates a general feeling of disorganization that can filter into other aspects of your life.

De-cluttering.

            Decluttering your home is an important lifestyle change that will not happen overnight. However, if you make a real commitment to living in a cleaner, more organized home, it can lead to a number of benefits. Organizing and storing items is a good place to start, however, for many people who have issues with clutter, this will not solve the root cause of the problem. If you have a problem with clutter, there is a good chance you may be hoarding to some degree.  Though your home may not be worthy of a TV show, there is a good chance that you stand to benefit from ridding yourself of items that you no longer use. Should you decide that this is the appropriate course of action for you, OC Junk Hauling will be there to help! We offer great prices and same day service–and all disposal is done in the greenest, most socially and environmentally conscientious way possible.

Junk Removal in a tenant evicted property in Orange County.

If you’ve been forced to evict a tenant, the last thing you want to deal with is a bunch of junk that they’ve left behind. Unfortunately, this can be a fairly complicated process. There are a number of laws dealing with evicted tenant’s property rights that you will have to deal with. The following list in not comprehensive; however, it will give you a basic idea of some of the most important rules to keep in mind:

• Provide written notice. If you discover any items of value in the home/apartment after evicting a tenant, you are required by California state law to provide a written list of these items to the tenant.
•  Storage. During the next 18 days, the tenant will have the right to reclaim these items. You may choose to keep the items at the house or in a secure storage location; however if you do decide to move the items keep track of the costs: you may be legally entitled to charge the tenant for the costs of storage/removal.
•  Surrendering the items. If the tenant gets back to you within 18 days, you will be obligated to surrender the items to the tenant upon receiving a payment for storage. You are also required to allow the tenant reasonable time to move any large items such as furniture and appliances.
•  Auction. If the tenant does not contact you after 18 days, you are allowed to sell any items of value. However, it is important to note that, should the value of these items exceed $300 dollars, you will need to contact your county about selling the items at an authorized auction.
•  Junk. In most cases, you probably shouldn’t expect to make a big profit off items that your tenant leaves. The odds are good that, if the tenant left an item, it is probably not worth the cost of moving/selling. In this case, you will be stuck removing the item yourself.

This is where OC Junk Hauling can help! We offer same-day service 7 days a week, and all at a reasonable price! Our service is essential to land lords who wish to re-rent ASAP to maximize revenues and minimize loss. Timeliness and quality of service is paramount and is certainly provided by us.
