Give it away if it is still usable. Otherwise take it apart from the top down and separate the wood, metal, and plastic, or hire a junk removal crew to dismantle it and haul everything off in one visit. An old shed or playset is one of those yard projects that looks simple. Then you take a pry bar to it and you find out that’s just not so. If the structure is still ...
Moving is stressful in ways that have little to do with the boxes. The parts that catch Everett families off guard tend to be the ones nobody puts on the checklist. And, of course, those are also the parts that hit hardest when a move also means clearing out a longtime family home. Most of that stress is avoidable, though. A little foresight, plus a plan for dealing with clutter, can take the sharp edges ...
For everyday trash, curbside service in Edmonds does its job. And it does it well. But the confusion starts when you have something bigger than a garbage bag that has to go. Plenty of Edmonds residents have hauled an old appliance or broken piece of furniture to the curb, only to watch the truck drive right past it. If you have ever been turned away or left guessing by the rules, here is a clear ...
Start by securing the property and documenting its current state with photos. Then work room by room using four categories, keep, sell, donate, and discard, before scheduling a junk removal appointment to clear everything that will not be donated or sold. Estate cleanouts can feel impossible to start, often because the projects themselves are huge. People can accumulate a tremendous volume of stuff over the course of a lifetime. So it helps to break the ...
Your options are selling or giving it away if it still works, trading it in when you buy a new one, or hiring a junk removal service to dismantle and haul it away. That last option is usually the fastest, since most garbage services and donation programs will not take a hot tub. Being in a hot tub is relaxing. Getting rid of one is certainly not. They’re heavy, and they’re often wired ...
By June, the Pacific Northwest is calling. And soon to come out of storage: the paddleboards and camping bins, the hiking packs and the bikes. The problem is getting to them. Garages fill up layer by layer, and this is as true in Bothell as it is anywhere else. After a few months of steady accumulation, that’s enough to bury summer gear way out of easy reach. But clearing that space is not something ...
June is the busiest time of the year for moves in Mukilteo. So perhaps it’s not surprising that a lot of June is spent on logistics like packing boxes and filing change-of-address forms. The part that people put off, until it’s just not feasible anymore, is downsizing. In an established home, it’s common for every closet and corner to hold something you’ve outgrown. And the last thing you want to do ...
Summer is almost here in Marysville and it’s the perfect time to host guests. That’s easier said than done, though, because it implies that the patio is clean and the yard is presentable. And if you plan on using the garage, you’ll no doubt want the space to be at least reasonably neat there as well. But life is life, and garages in Marysville, as with just about anywhere else, tend to ...

Many homeowners are pleasantly surprised with how straightforward it is to book junk removal. Same-day service is often available when you book early enough in the day. When that’s not possible, next-day appointments are standard. This means you do not need to ...
Declutter and depersonalize every room so the home reads as a blank canvas for buyers, then let The Junkluggers handle the haul before staging and photography. Cleaning out a house before selling it in Snohomish County takes a lot of work. Buyers need to be able to imagine themselves living there, after all. And that requires three phases: decluttering, deep cleaning, and working on curb appeal. The pre-listing cleanout is the first and most physically ...
Junk removal in Snohomish County is priced based on how much room your junk takes up in a truck. The Junkluggers provides a free on-site estimate before any work begins, and your final price is never more than the written quote. If you’ve never paid for junk removal before, this might surprise you. Items are not assigned a set cost. Rather, the price you’ll pay is based upon how much room your junk ...
Buyers expect clean, neutral spaces, especially in the $600K+ range. Homes that present that way sell faster in this market, which means junk removal is one of the highest-ROI things you can do to prepare before staging and photography. Snohomish County is a lovely place to live, which means the housing market is competitive. The median house price is hovering around $735K, and Everett homes are selling in under two weeks even at that price ...
The weather is nice in Stanwood, and if you’re like a lot of people, you’re thinking about spring cleaning. With spring cleaning comes bulk garbage removal. And that can be tougher than you might expect around here. For one, Stanwood doesn’t do curbside bulk waste pickup like some large cities do. Waste Management picks up the bins every week. But that won’t help if you have old furniture, mattresses, or a ...
