Ending a commercial lease can be an expensive way to find a bunch of things you didn’t realize were in the building any more. Desks have a way of piling up in storage rooms right next to outdated computers. Shelves can be full of things that seemed worth keeping…ten years ago. Meanwhile, the landlord expects the space to be returned empty, likely broom-clean. And the business might be moving elsewhere. That’s a ...

The goal is an empty space, after all. Broom clean means the next person working on the property will be able to go ...

And when the time comes ...

Junk removal companies haul away the oversized, heavy, and hard-to-move items that garbage trucks routinely leave behind, including mattresses, furniture, appliances, electronics, construction debris, and hot tubs. The weekly garbage truck that comes by is a wonderful thing. But it serves just one purpose: to take bagged household trash set out at the curb. It has tight size and weight limits, which is why the big, heavy, and awkward items are so often left behind ...
Summer in Star is the perfect time to start upgrading appliances. But when the new energy-efficient refrigerator gets delivered, the question becomes: “what do I do with the old one?” And for a lot of people the answer is “nothing” and it goes into the garage and sits for a long time.
