  40. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">You&#8217;re nearing the end of your lease, and you&#8217;ve been packing up all your belongings. But what about those items left behind in the rental unit? If not properly removed, these items will be charged to your account at the time of move-out. That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s important to go through each room with a plan for how to clean them out. In this blog, we will go over the best steps to make sure your rental unit looks brand new before moving out!</span></p>
  41. <p><strong>1. Gather all items to be removed from the rental unit</strong></p>
  42. <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">This step is a given, but make sure to check every nook and cranny of the rental. The last thing you want is to leave anything behind and get an unexpected charge. Make sure to leave anything that was there when you moved in, so they don&#8217;t fine you for taking items.</span></p>
  43. <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true"><strong>2. Sort and organize items into piles based on category (e.g., clothing, electronics, toys)</strong> </span></p>
  44. <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">This is a great time to ensure you&#8217;re getting rid of things that are no longer useful. We want the unit to be as clear and clutter-free as possible, so it&#8217;s important we don&#8217;t just leave stuff everywhere! When you organize your items into categories, it will make the moving process much easier.</span></p>
  45. <p><strong>3. Remove any hazardous materials (e.g., paint, chemicals) or anything that can&#8217;t be donated </strong></p>
  46. <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Hazardous materials are not something you want to keep. Even if they&#8217;re sealed up, it&#8217;s best to remove them from the rental unit before moving out of it. We don&#8217;t recommend storing hazardous materials for an extended time because there is always a risk that someone will open these items and be exposed to harmful chemicals.</span></p>
  47. <p><strong>4. Put remaining items in boxes for storage until you&#8217;re ready to donate them</strong></p>
  48. <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Make sure you have enough boxes to pack up all items that don&#8217;t belong in your rental unit. You should also consider labeling where certain things are being stored, so it&#8217;s easy for movers or helpers to find them later!</span></p>
  49. <p><strong>5. Clean the rental unit thoroughly before moving out of it</strong></p>
  50. <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">This includes dusting, vacuuming floors and carpets, mopping hardwood floors (if applicable), cleaning windowsills and light fixtures, and wiping down countertops and appliances with a damp cloth or sponge.</span></p>
  51. <p><strong>6. Return keys to the landlord&#8217;s agent along with a copy of your forwarding address so they know where you&#8217;ve gone</strong></p>
  52. <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">This is one of the most critical steps to take. If they don&#8217;t know where you&#8217;ve moved to, it can make them question if they should give your deposit back or not!</span></p>
  53. <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">If you have large furniture, unwanted items, or general junk that needs to be removed from your rental unit, call Junk Slayers LLC today! Our team will handle all of your junk removal needs so you don&#8217;t have to.

  69. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most people live with some level of clutter &#8211; there is no one who can&#8217;t benefit from a good decluttering session. There are tons of benefits to decluttering, but the most important thing will make you feel better and more relaxed. In this blog post, we&#8217;ll discuss reducing stress levels while decluttering by following 6 simple steps!</p>
  70. <p><strong>1. Take a deep breath and relax &#8211; you&#8217;re not going to be able to declutter your entire house in one day.</strong></p>
  71. <p>It&#8217;s tempting to try and take on everything at once, but it can really lead you to be overwhelmed. So instead, you&#8217;re better off taking a deep breath and realizing you&#8217;ll have more success by tackling smaller areas of your home one day (or even just 15 minutes) at a time.</p>
  72. <p><strong>2. Start small &#8211; start with the easiest room or area of the house that is out of control</strong></p>
  73. <p>When you start small, it&#8217;s much easier to take on larger areas of your home and get them under control. You&#8217;ll feel like you&#8217;re accomplishing a lot more, which will help lower stress levels.</p>
  74. <p>Start with the easiest room in your house that is out of control &#8211; for example, if clothes are piling up all over the floor or there&#8217;s overflowing garbage, you can start by packing those items into boxes before moving onto your next room.</p>
  75. <p><strong>3. Set aside time each day for decluttering, even if it&#8217;s just 15 minutes</strong></p>
  76. <p>To declutter successfully, you need to set aside time each day. Even if it&#8217;s just 15 minutes a day, the more consistent you are with your schedule and deadlines, the better off you&#8217;ll be. It can also help to use timers or alarms on your phone to remind yourself when it&#8217;s time for distraction-free zen meditation.</p>
  77. <p><strong>4. Get rid of clutter as soon as possible</strong></p>
  78. <p>Put away clothes immediately after wearing them, throw away old food, etc., and make sure any papers are filed properly before throwing them out. The more you stay on top of chores, the less you&#8217;ll have to worry about them later, and the more productive your decluttering sessions will be.</p>
  79. <p><strong>6. Think about how you want your home to feel when you walk into it every night-do you want it to be neat and tidy or chaotic and cluttered?</strong></p>
  80. <p>Setting a goal and sticking to it will help you declutter your home more quickly and efficiently. In addition, if you know what your end goal will be, this will motivate you more to get the tasks done!</p>
  81. <p>If the clutter is too overwhelming, you can also hire a junk removal company to do the job for you! Give Junk Slayers LLC a call today at (509) 230-3687 or visit our site <a href="http://www.JunkSlayersLLC.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">www.JunkSlayersLLC.com</a>.</p>

  97. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The benefits of cleaning your garage can&#8217;t be denied. From better organization to feeling more accomplished, there are many reasons that it&#8217;s a good idea to spend the day getting rid of junk and old clutter. To help you out, here are 5 good reasons to clean your garage today!</p>
  98. <p><strong>1. Cleaning Your Garage Is Good for the Environment</strong></p>
  99. <p>You know that feeling when you&#8217;re driving down the street and see someone throwing their trash on the ground or tossing a cigarette butt out of their car window? Disgusting, right? Well, if your garage isn&#8217;t clean, it can be just as bad for our environment. Don&#8217;t let things pile up &#8211; they tend to attract bugs and mold if they sit for a long time.</p>
  100. <p><strong>2. You&#8217;ll Find Things You Forgot About</strong></p>
  101. <p>There&#8217;s likely a lot of things in your garage that you forgot about, and they could come in handy! For example, you might find old furniture waiting to be re-purposed or an extra set of tools for when one breaks. Plus, it&#8217;ll feel good knowing where everything is instead of having to search around every time you need something.</p>
  102. <p><strong>3. You Can Get Rid of Junk Quickly</strong></p>
  103. <p>If you haven&#8217;t used it in the last year or so &#8211; get rid of it! It&#8217;s likely just taking up space. Plus, with a clean garage, there&#8217;ll be less junk to come across and sort through when looking for something specific. On the other hand, if you have too much junk, unwanted items, or clutter to deal with, consider hiring a professional junk removal company to do the job for you!</p>
  104. <p><strong>4. Your Car Will Stay Clean</strong></p>
  105. <p>A clean garage is a must for your car. Your vehicle can have dust, dirt, and pollen on it from being stored in the yard or driveway &#8211; not to mention things like bird droppings. In addition, when you put dirty tools back into the trunk of your car before heading home, they could leave residue stains that will eventually cause damage to your vehicle.</p>
  106. <p><strong>5. You Can Make Extra Cash</strong></p>
  107. <p>Many items can be repurposed, recycled, or sold on Craigslist and other online sites. For example, the old dresser in your garage that has been collecting dust for years may make an excellent nightstand in a new apartment &#8211; and you might even be able to sell it!</p>
  108. <p>If you need a professional junk removal company in Spokane, Washington to take care of your mess, call Junk Slayers LLC! Our team can handle any mess or cleanout. So give us a call today at (509) 230-3687 or visit our site <a href="http://www.JunkSlayersLLC.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">www.JunkSlayersLLC.com</a>.</p>

  125. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the best parts about summer is getting to spend time in your backyard. Whether you have a pool, a patio, or just a lawn, it&#8217;s important that you take care of it this summer so that next year will be even better. Backyard cleanup can seem like an overwhelming task at first glance&#8230; but Junk Slayers LLC has all the tools and expertise needed to make quick work of any project!</p>
  126. <p>To get started, you&#8217;ll want to give your backyard a good cleanup. First, gather up all the yard debris and recyclables, sweep any dirt off concrete areas or neaten shrubs and flower beds. If you have a pressure washer, this is a great tool to use when cleaning the yard. Next, wash all of the sidewalks, patios, and fencing to give it a fresh look.</p>
  127. <p>Next is time for some maintenance! Go ahead and trim back trees that might be overgrowing into other parts of your property line; clear out weeds from around trees, fences, or patio furniture; remove leaves on top of water features (or drain them if they&#8217;re not working); rake up pine straw that has dropped in preparation for next year&#8217;s mulching&#8230; there&#8217;s so many projects that fall under this category &#8211; but don&#8217;t worry about starting with everything at once! Just concentrate on one task each week until it becomes manageable.</p>
  128. <p>If you want to get inspiration for your backyard, look online for some ideas. You can find beautiful landscape projects online that can jumpstart the process. Landscaping is a great way to make your backyard feel like a serene retreat, and it&#8217;s also a way to impress your friends with how well-manicured you keep your home.</p>
  129. <p>Once your backyard is free of debris and damages, it is time to kick back and relax! So if you are trying to beat the heat this summer, here are some fun activities to enjoy in your yard:</p>
  130. <p>&#8211; Backyard Games: Backyards are a perfect space for outdoor games. You can play classic yard games like horseshoes, washers, or croquet with friends and neighbors.</p>
  131. <p>&#8211; Outdoor Movie Night: If you have enough people in your backyard, host an impromptu movie night! Bring out a projector screen and set up some lawn chairs (or even bring the couch outside!). Put on your favorite comedy or romantic flick to enjoy under the stars.</p>
  132. <p>&#8211; BBQs Galore!: The summer is prime time for barbecues. So why not get creative this year? For example, try hosting dinner parties at different times of the day so that guests experience what it&#8217;s like eating outdoors as dusk turns to evening darkness.</p>
  133. <p>-DIY Water Park: If you&#8217;re handy with tools and have space, create your own backyard water park. Fill a kiddie or wading pool with some of those plastic balls to serve as obstacles for kids around age six and up who can&#8217;t swim yet.</p>
  134. <p>&#8211; Backyard Hiking: If you don&#8217;t want to go far from home, make it into a game! Take turns picking trails in your area that are best navigated on foot instead of driving. Then, play &#8220;I Spy&#8221; at each location, so everyone has an idea what they should be looking for when choosing their next hike.&#8221;</p>

  151. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Moving out of your home can be a daunting task. What will you do with all of the stuff that is accumulating in your house? How will you store it? When should you pack up and how long does it take to move everything out? Where are you going to put all of these things while you&#8217;re waiting for your new homes? Packing tips, decluttering tips, and junk removal company information are just some of the topics covered in this article.</p>
  152. <p>Moving into an apartment or condo usually involves finding somewhere else to live temporarily until moving day arrives &#8211; but what about when it&#8217;s time to find another place because someone has decided not to help anymore (or life changes)? You need more than boxes! Read on for storage solutions, packing ideas, and how to keep organized while moving.</p>
  153. <p><strong>Here are some tips on how to stay organized during the move:</strong></p>
  154. <ul>
  155. <li>Take pictures of your rooms before packing. This will help you when it comes time to unpack everything in your new home. You will be able to easily put everything back in its original spot.</li>
  156. <li>Assign a specific home for each thing (e.g., kitchen, living room) to avoid confusion when unpacking everything and remember where things go in the new place!</li>
  157. <li>Pack up all essentials first: clothing, toiletries, general items &#8211; these are not hard to find when you run out of them at midnight on moving day!</li>
  158. <li>Create a &#8220;To Do&#8221; list of all the other items and things you need to pack up.</li>
  159. <li>Label all boxes that you pack so you can easily unpack in your new home.</li>
  160. <li>Toss anything that&#8217;s broken or useless! You will end up needing more space for your new belongings if you don&#8217;t weed through what you have now and just keep it in storage.</li>
  161. </ul>
  162. <p><strong>Decluttering Tips For Your Home Before Moving Out: </strong></p>
  163. <ul>
  164. <li>Sort out the trash from any recyclables &#8211; recycle as much as possible, because recycling is really important these days! Any bottles with lids removed should also be tossed into the recycling bin (and not mixed in with general trash).</li>
  165. <li>Get rid of anything not needed or wanted by donating it to charity.</li>
  166. <li>Purge your clothes and shoes &#8211; you can always buy new ones, but if they&#8217;re just sitting in a closet taking up space for months on end (or years?) then it&#8217;s time to say goodbye!</li>
  167. <li>Sort through all the books that you&#8217;ve collected over the years; keep any favorites and donate what others aren&#8217;t being read anymore.</li>
  168. </ul>
  169. <p><strong>How Junk Removal Companies Can Help You Stay Organized During Your Move:</strong></p>
  170. <ul>
  171. <li>We can remove all your unwanted items, saving you time and energy.</li>
  172. <li>The truck will be conveniently loaded up in one stop so there&#8217;s no need to do it yourself! You&#8217;ll have more room for the things that are really important when moving.</li>
  173. <li>This is a great way to make sure everything goes smoothly with your move out of your old place &#8211; clear away any clutter while we take care of hauling away what isn&#8217;t wanted or needed anymore.</li>
  174. <li>Hire professionals to do the heavy lifting on your move day.</li>
  175. <li>Let our teams help you pack up everything; we&#8217;ll leave no room for items that are just taking up space in your home, and offer deals when it comes time to haul away what&#8217;s not wanted or needed anymore!</li>
  176. <li>We can also clean out any rooms of unwanted items before they&#8217;re moved into a new place &#8211; this will make sure there is plenty of room left over for the things you really want.</li>
  177. </ul>

  194. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A hoarder is someone who collects and accumulates all sorts of items and clutter in their home while letting it all sit and stand unused for an extended period of time. You may find mountain-high clutter with piles of dirt, dust, rats, insects, termites, etc. Being a hoarder isn&#8217;t something that can be cured overnight, and usually there are underlying mental illnesses connected with hoarding. If you want to help someone handle their home, keep in mind that you will need assistance from others and it&#8217;s best to stay patient.</p>
  195. <p>Cleaning up a hoarder&#8217;s house will not be a simple task at all. It will be difficult for the hoarder as they attach a sentimental value to the items they have.</p>
  196. <p>Here is a list of items to bring before you start the clean up:</p>
  197. <p>&#8211; A mask, goggles, gloves, and thick boots</p>
  198. <p>&#8211; Cleaning and sanitizing products, buckets, mop, disinfectants and air freshener</p>
  199. <p>&#8211; Insect repellent spray</p>
  200. <p>&#8211; Flashlight to locate the nooks and corners</p>
  201. <p>&#8211; First aid kit in case you get hurt</p>
  202. <p>&#8211; Trash bags and bins</p>
  203. <p>&#8211; Moving boxes</p>
  204. <p>The Cleaning Process:</p>
  205. <p>Once you have talked with your loved one and have come to the conclusion that it is time to let go of their items, you will need help and a few extra hands to move the heavy stuff.</p>
  206. <p><strong>1. Start Room By Room</strong></p>
  207. <p>Don&#8217;t try to clean the whole house at once; this method will be nearly impossible. Go room by room and take your time. Start by decluttering first, and sanitize everything after all of the items are out.</p>
  208. <p><strong>2. Differentiate The Items</strong></p>
  209. <p>Arrange all the stuff in three different sections &#8211; one to donate, one to the trash, and one to keep. You will be surprised to find valuable documents inside a pile of junk and clutter lying around.</p>
  210. <p><strong>3. Go From Top To Bottom</strong></p>
  211. <p>Throw away all half-used items as they can be dirty with pests and insects, old towels, worn-out rags, expired and old food, things that have not been used for a year or so, and all that looks like trash. Once you have thrown away everything, it will be a lot easier to categorize. Open the windows and doors for fresh air. Separate all the donation stuff to clean and sanitize. The valuables should be kept at a corner and dealt with later on.</p>
  212. <p><strong>4. Sanitization</strong></p>
  213. <p>Once everything is cleared away, wash and sanitize the furniture if usable. Clean the floors, walls, and ceilings. Carpets and rugs should be thrown away or professionally cleaned as they can become breeding grounds for small animals and pests.</p>
  214. <p><strong>5. Bathrooms And Kitchen</strong></p>
  215. <p>Bathrooms can be completed efficiently by washing with cleaning solutions and decluttering. Quickly wash them and sanitize and throw all unused or unneeded items. The kitchen utensils and dishes should be kept aside for cleaning and sanitization, and the kitchen cabinets and surfaces should be thoroughly cleaned.</p>
  216. <p><strong>6. Closets</strong></p>
  217. <p>Cleaning closets and storage spaces should be kept for the last task as they most likely will be overflowing with clutter. Continue organizing and decluttering these spaces as you normally would, but be prepared for a larger volume of junk for the smaller spaces.</p>
  218. <p><strong>7. Repair And Change</strong></p>
  219. <p>Once everything is clean, repair everything that is broken and needs fixing. Next, you can buy new and necessary furniture and get the walls repainted for a touch of freshness.</p>
  220. <p><strong>8. Hire A Junk Removal Company</strong></p>
  221. <p>Cleaning out a hoarder&#8217;s home is a long and tedious task that usually requires expert help. If you feel overwhelmed with the amount of junk, clutter, and debris that you need to haul away, call a junk removal team to assist. Junk removal companies are experienced and know how to haul away items with the best practices.</p>

  239. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Like many others, you may have also encountered the need to clean out your estate, at one time or the other. Though the procedure sounds simple, it is quite a lengthy process. An estate cleanout includes removing furniture and other miscellaneous items left behind when it has become vacant.</p>
  240. <p><strong>What Does An Estate Cleanout Involve?</strong></p>
  241. <p>An estate cleanout is a job taken care of well by junk removal professionals as it involves removing all the items from the property or room responsibly. As junk removal companies haul away items, it&#8217;s easier for them to load up everything in the truck and haul it away, leaving you with clean space to use for yourself or your new tenants. They will give you a quote for the cleanout, and if you agree to it, they will begin the cleanout.</p>
  242. <p><strong>Who Needs An Estate Cleanout?</strong></p>
  243. <p>An estate cleanout is necessary for several reasons. People look towards junk removal services when they do not want to keep an item from a deceased loved one, like large pieces, furniture, or other household items and kitchen appliances. Junk removal companies do thousands of cleanouts every year.</p>
  244. <p><strong>Where Does All The Junk Go?</strong></p>
  245. <p>When you hire a junk removal service, all the items are sorted into three categories; garbage, recyclable items, and items suitable for donation. As people believe, not all the items that are collected from an estate cleanout end up in the landfill directly.</p>
  246. <p><strong>What Options Do You Have?</strong></p>
  247. <p>The various solid waste disposal services differ based on the region, size of junk, and the junk items&#8217; weight. Doing an estate cleanout is a particular task, but it is important to note that even junk removal businesses have their systems to follow. Although you can choose to clear out your estate on your own by removing large pieces and furniture using dumpsters or your large vehicles, you will still need to pay the landfill sites.</p>
  248. <p><strong>Things You Should Consider Before An Estate Cleanout</strong></p>
  249. <p>If you plan on cleaning your estate on your own, you can choose to rent a large dumpster from any junk removal service. You can also choose to seek help from your friends or family, who can move the items with you. But the best option for you is to hire a junk removal service. When you hire their services, you can be sure that all your junk is donated, recycled, resold, or dumped away properly.</p>
  250. <p><strong>How Much Are Junk Removal Costs?</strong></p>
  251. <p>There is no fixed rate provided by the junk removal companies, as their rates are dependent on the condition and size of the property. For example, if tenants well maintained the estate, it will surely cost less than one held by a hoarder.</p>
  252. <p><strong>Decluttering And Decompressing Of The Estate</strong></p>
  253. <p>An estate cleanout is very difficult for those who have recently lost their loved ones. Seeking help from a junk removal business can ease the chore for you in such distressing times, and you won&#8217;t be left wondering how do I complete this estate cleanout?</p>

  270. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Junk items not only take up the living spaces in your property, but they can also impact the environment to a large extent. Junk materials are increasing today all over the world due to the high consumption of home appliances, electronic devices, etc. As a result, it becomes a difficult job to dispose of them easily. Many people throw away their junk items to a landfill to save time but may not be aware of the consequences caused by the landfills.</p>
  271. <p>Here are some reasons why people shouldn&#8217;t throw away junk to a landfill:</p>
  272. <p><strong>1. Water Contamination</strong></p>
  273. <p>Junk items in a landfill contain hazardous chemicals and substances, leading to various problems during rainy seasons. They will contaminate the groundwater significantly, which results in potential hazards. The toxic products in the landfill range from industrial products to electronic waste that adversely impacts domestic water supply used for drinking, irrigation, and other purposes.</p>
  274. <p><strong>2. Air Pollution</strong></p>
  275. <p>Landfills emit toxic gases from junk items, and methane gas is the most dangerous one, reducing air quality. Dust and particulate matter emitted by a landfill also contribute more to air pollution issues. Therefore, it is advisable not to throw away any junk items to a landfill to save the environment from risks.</p>
  276. <p><strong>3. Landfill Fires </strong></p>
  277. <p>Some junk items can cause a fire in a landfill due to chemical reactions, which further cause air pollution. Moreover, it becomes a challenging process to control landfill fires when the fire gets out of control. Not only that, the fire will destroy the neighboring habitats.</p>
  278. <p><strong>4. Soil And Land Pollution</strong></p>
  279. <p>Junk items in a landfill can lead to soil and land pollution that will cause problems in the environment. The toxic chemicals emitted by junk can damage the upper layer of the soil, distorting the fertility.</p>
  280. <p><strong>5. Health Issues</strong></p>
  281. <p>Health experts say that junk items in a landfill can lead to health complications such as asthma, cancer, breathing difficulties, heart diseases, headaches, fatigue, and so on. It is wise to avoid dumping junk in a landfill to prevent any health complications.</p>
  282. <p><strong>6. Impacts Recycling Business</strong></p>
  283. <p>Nowadays, many recycling units offer residential and commercial building services to remove junk items with safety measures. Throwing away junk items to a landfill will impact their business, and people shouldn&#8217;t follow the practice. Recycling offers solutions for protecting the environment from dangerous issues to ensure peace of mind.</p>
  284. <p><strong>How to reduce landfill material?</strong></p>
  285. <p>Those who want to reduce landfill material should consider working with a professional junk removal company to handle their unwanted items. A junk removal company will properly recycle, donate or dispose of any items they haul from your home. So don&#8217;t stress about where your old TV, appliance, or couch will go when you can pick up the phone and call.</p>
