Appliances

What kinds of household appliances can Moov remove and recycle?

Contrary to popular belief, a number of household appliances can avoid landfills and be recycled. For instance, bigger appliances like refrigerators, washing and drying machines, or ovens can be broken down into scrap metal. Smaller appliances like toasters, microwaves, and cooking pans frequently contain recyclable metals. Before you throw appliances in the trash, consider the item’s condition first. If they still work, consider donating as an option instead of throwing it away. Many local charities and thrift stores like Goodwill and the Salvation Army will accept appliances of all sizes, and these items often go to people who may not be able to afford brand new items.

Getting rid of appliances can be a real chore. More than likely, you’ll need a truck, and you’ll also have the additional responsibility to load up your items and drop them off by yourself. It is very hard work and takes up valuable time and energy. A call to Moov Junk at (678) 836-6896 can help you regain your time and energy and focus them on other areas on your to do list.


Can Moov take away my old refrigerator?

Of course we can! In fact, a majority of refrigerators and freezers can be disassembled and recycled, but the process can be a complicated one. Many units contain refrigerants and harmful chemicals that have to be properly disposed of according to federal law. Once this process is complete the fridge can then be separated into reusable parts such as glass, metal, and plastic for recycling.

When you choose Moov Junk to remove your old refrigerator or freezer, you’ll save a ton of time and energy. We take great care in making sure the individual components are broken down into recyclable and reusable elements. Leave the heavy lifting to us!


I’m ready for a new hot tub or jacuzzi. Can Moov help me get rid of my old one?

We’ve all been there. Having enjoyed fond memories in hot tubs and jacuzzis, it’s finally time for an upgrade. So you ask yourself: how in the world am I going to move this monstrosity? And where am I going to take it? Hot tubs and jacuzzi recycling can be a very heavy and time consuming task, and many county disposal services and landfills don’t accept them. These hot tubs, however, are great sources of many recyclable components, including a number of different plastics and metals. When broken down and recycled properly, these materials can be repurposed to obtain new products.

My family just upgraded to a new flat screen television. Can we throw our old one in the trash?

No way! Older televisions commonly contain environmentally harmful chemicals and parts that need to be safely disposed of. If your television still works, donating it is always the best option. There are many local charities and non-profit organizations that accept televisions, but you will more than likely need to deliver it yourself. This can be a difficult task if your television is particularly heavy or cumbersome.

Like many other electronics, if your television is broken, you should take great care in disposing of the harmful chemicals it may contain. In addition, a number of valuable materials including metals, wiring, and plastic can be recycled from your television set.

No matter the condition of your television, you can trust Moov Junk to provide the assistance you need in moving it and ensuring that as many parts as possible are repurposed into reusable materials.

Tenants often leave my storage units filled with items and debris when a unit doesn’t sell or when units go unpaid. How can Moov help with storage unit clean outs?

At Moov Junk, we provide storage facility junk removal services that can save you time and money. We understand that the quicker a storage unit can be cleared out and cleaned, the faster it will be available for rental by another customer.

Electronics

How and why should I choose Moov Junk to assist in disposing of my unwanted electronics?

Properly disposing of electronic waste is vital to limiting the number of unwanted electronics that end up in landfills around the world. Like appliances, many electronics contain harmful chemicals and environmentally-unfriendly elements such as mercury and lead. When these elements come into contact with the environment, they can severely harm and surrounding plant and animal life, as well as crops, food, and water supply. When you call Moov Junk, we pick up your devices and either donate the electronics that still work or recycle the ones that are broken. At our recycling facility, the materials are broken down and the raw components are repurposed into reusable materials and products.


Furniture

I have an old couch that I no longer need. Can Moov Junk haul it away?

Absolutely! Large pieces of furniture such as couches can be extremely problematic when it comes to getting rid of them. Not only are they difficult to lift because of their weight, but they can also be clumsy to navigate out of your house. In addition, many garbage removal services aren’t capable of taking these very large pieces of furniture away.

When you schedule Moov Junk to pick up your couch, we ensure that couches in good condition are donated to local charities. If your couch is in poor condition, we take the time to break your couch down, as much of the wood and metal it contains can be recycled. If you’re ready to get rid of your old couch and need a trusted junk removal company to help, call Moov Junk for assistance!


Why should I recycle my unwanted furniture?

Much of the furniture found in homes today are great sources of recyclable foam, fabric, plastic, metal, and wood. But these products don’t just break down easily in a landfill. In fact, it can take years for the process to even begin. By keeping these materials out of landfills, you are helping to preserve the environment and contributing to the creation of new products.

Call Moov Junk to take care of the disposal of your old furniture! We’ll pick it up and take care of all of the heavy lifting, so you can get back to a clutter-free life. In addition, we’ll ensure that your furniture is either recycled, donated, or disposed of properly.

How can Moov Junk Removal & Recycling assist me in removing landscaping waste like branches, leaf removal, and trimmings?

After a big landscaping or yard makeover project, a ton of debris, trimmings, and branches can be left behind. When this waste can no longer fit in your residential waste container, you might find taking it all to your local landfill to be a very difficult and time consuming task.

My neighborhood garbage removal company won’t take certain items I place for pick up. Can Moov Junk clear unwanted garbage and trash from my property?

Most county residential waste disposal services have a number of electronics, furniture, and materials they will not take. It is also unlikely that they will assist you in taking it out of your home. This frequently leaves many homeowners with unwanted junk in a difficult position. The great news though is that Moov Junk is a full service junk removal company. For the most part, as long as your waste is non-hazardous, our service professionals arrive when you make an appointment and haul it away.
