Contrary to popular belief, moving out of a home is actually a great time for junk removal!
Some people might be very organised and have everything labelled and packed away neatly in a storage room. And then there are others who would like to have everything in order. But, in the hustle and bustle of their daily lives, things tend to get messy.
If the latter is true for you, then we recommend you continue reading on.
Moving Out And Junk Removal Go Hand-In-Hand
Allow us to explain.
There are many reasons why someone would move out of their home, like upgrading to a better and larger home, purchasing a new house, evictions, financial changes, when the landlord sells a home and so on.
Amongst all the tasks involved in moving homes, the top priority for all tenants is getting their bond back in full. If you’ve been a stellar tenant, on time with the rent and never causing complaints from neighbours, then you’re one simple step away from getting your money back.
And that’s leaving your home in the best condition possible by cleaning and fixing it up properly.
But there’s just one tiny problem.
Even though you might have had plenty of notice, things pile up, and there is always too much to do and too little help and time to do it properly – and as your moving date looms closer, things get hectic, and your home seems like a tornado ran through it.
One way to take the load off your shoulders (quite literally) is to get help with junk removal. In this way, you will know that all your junk has been disposed of properly. Furthermore, you’ll be leaving a clean house for your landlord or new tenant.
See how they fit together? Basically, to get your bond back, you need a clean home. In order to have a clean house, you need to declutter and get some help with the junk removal process.
Why Moving Out Is The Best Time For Junk Removal
We tend to hold on to things because they have sentimental value. We forget we have them, or we hope that they could be of use in the future. No matter the reason, we also always tend to procrastinate on this task. No one wants to waste a free day looking through dusty old things!
However, while moving out, we simply have to deal with the issue and begin sorting through our things. Taking everything to a new home will not solve the problem.
If you need a little extra motivation, here are some of the benefits of junk removal:
Health & Safety
If you’ve had things stuffed into boxes in places like your garage or loft, it’s possible that pests or mould has gotten into them.
If they’ve been there for a long time, then there might be damage to those areas in your home, belongings and deterioration in the air quality of your home.
Pay It Forward
If you have old or unused toys, clothes, books etc., you can donate them to your local charities so they can be used by people who really need them.
Or you can give away these items to your family or friends who might need them – reducing the amount of waste generated and saving your loved ones a little cash too!
Host A Sale
In case you can’t find an organisation to donate to, then you can always sell these items and make a little extra money to add to your decorating fund!
You can sell these items online, or if you’re a great salesperson, you can have a garage sale in your backyard.
New Home – New Look
You have the chance to organise, decorate and generally revamp the way your home is. That’s not to say that you must move out each time you remove junk. Only that you get a head start to make things right again.
Can’t I Handle The Junk Removal Myself?
Junk removal isn’t rocket science; it’s completely possible to do it on your own. The question is, why would you want to?
As you’re setting up a new home, packing your belongings and switching your utilities to your new address, you will have little to no time to segregate your junk per council regulations and take bulky items to the appropriate disposal areas.
Trust us, your council junk removal crew won’t handle things like mattresses, cabinets, and old electronics – and if you don’t dispose of items properly, you’ll have to pay a hefty fine too.
Hiring A Professional Junk Removal Service
Simply packing for a move takes up enough time. If combining with the other tasks involved in moving houses, there are barely any hours left in the day!
If you hire a junk removal team to help, you’ll save hours of sorting through and disposing of the junk correctly. Professional junk removal services know how and where to dispose of various items properly. All the time you would have spent trying to figure out how and where to get rid of things can be put towards other chores or even towards a well-deserved nap.
And if you happen to find a service that handles the entire move out cleaning process and takes care of the junk removal, too (hint, hint – like us at NexDo) – then you can say goodbye to gruelling work and hello to a seamless move!
