Junk Car Removal

One of the items we are frequently asked about is junk cars. Junk cars are large and difficult to remove. It isn’t feasible for a residential property owner to haul away vehicles while doing a clean up.

If you are trying to get rid of a junk car, you will definitely need a professional junk hauling service to help you. Some companies will buy your junk car while others will just help remove it from the property and dispose of it safely. Whether or not you can sell your junk car depends on the condition it is in. Some cars are simply beyond repair and can only be junked.

Junk Electronics Removal

Our services for junk removal include the following:

• Appliances
• Refrigerators
• Computers
• Monitors
• Wiring
• Laptops
• Other electronics

Electronics are one of the most difficult things to dispose of. They require special handling and disposal procedures in order to get rid of them safely.

The Washington State Department of Ecology provides guidelines for getting rid of old or broken electronics. The state will allow you to recycle the following electronics for free through a program called e-cycle WA:

• Televisions
• Computers
• Computer monitors
• Portable or laptop computers
• Tablets
• E-readers
• Portable DVD players

Items that are not included in the program include:

• Keyboards
• Printers
• Toner cartridges
• Cell phones
• And other peripherals

You have to take extra care when trying to get rid of those items as they can’t be recycled using the state programs in place for removal of electronics. In addition, take note of which items you can recycle for free and which you can’t. If you are trying to recycle a lot of electronics that you can’t get rid of for free or just a large amount of junk, contact us for help with your junk removal needs. Electronic devices can be dangerous for the environment because of toxic materials like lead, cadmium and mercury that are inside these products. If they are not disposed of properly the toxins can leach out into the soil and groundwater in the area.

The E-Cycle program in Washington state includes services to take apart and separate out harmful materials within electronics, including glass, plastic, metal and toxic chemicals. The Department of Energy here in Washington has procedures for getting rid of these materials safely.

However, another safe way for you to get rid of these types of materials is by contacting us a 99 Junk Removal. We have the tools and expertise to safely get rid of electronics of all sorts. We can work with local programs, as well as charities and those in need, to either junk electronics or repurpose them for further use.

No matter how you decide to get rid of junk electronics, you may want to think about your data and security before you get rid of these products. If you are getting rid of a cell phone, computer, laptop or even e-reader, make sure any and all data is wiped off of it before you get rid of it. It is possible for people to get into even “dead” electronics to try to get the data inside. Even if you are using the Washington State electronics disposal program, you should try to destroy your data before getting rid of electronics. You can avoid data theft by cleaning your old hard drives or obliterating your hard drive data with disk-wiping software.

Other Junk

There is a lot of junk beyond just electronics and cars, however. When people are cleaning out a house or office they come out with a lot of materials that need to be disposed. Some additional items you may need to junk include:

• Carpeting
• Furniture
• Hot tubs
• Mattresses
• Scrap
• Old tires
• Yard Waste
• Wood
• Desks
• Partitions
• Chairs
• Packaging materials
• And more

Some of these items are big and difficult to move on your own. Others aren’t large on their own, but when you’re cleaning out a building, all these small items add up over time to become a big hassle that you just don’t have the right equipment to deal with properly.

At 99 Junk Removal, we have all the equipment, tools and knowledge necessary to haul away even your largest junk. Whether it’s multiple mattresses from inside a residential home or multiple desks from inside an office building, we can haul away all your junk and dispose of it so you never have to worry about it again.

We can send out a crew in a timely manner and get the job done quickly so you can go about your business.

Our crews are always professional and know the local area. We provide services in Tukwila as well as the rest of the region. When you have junk to remove, call the local experts at 99 Junk Removal to know you’ll get prompt, professional help disposing of your junk.

Junk Removal Tools

Sometimes it takes specialized tools to get rid of junk. A lot of our customers simply don’t have the right vehicles to haul away large loads of junk. Things like mattresses can be very difficult to dispose of if you don’t have a large enough vehicle. As long as we can backup to the junk or trash, we can haul it away in one of our vehicles. All of the trucks we use for our work are 8 feet long and 6 feet wide. We also use racks of varying height in order to assist with loading in as much junk as possible to haul away.

Removing junk may also mean removing junk from your computer and other electronic devices. As noted above, clearing out your electronics is very important before you donate or junk them. You may want to first consider whether those old electronics can be donated and reused or if they have to just get thrown out and disposed of.

Either way, take precautions to make sure they don’t have sensitive data on them anywhere before you get rid of them. There are removal tools that can help you with this. It is recommended that you use disk-cleaning software in order to protect yourself when getting rid of electronics. Some of this software is free, such as Active@ KillDisk and DBAN, while other software does require a fee (this includes Blancco Data Erasure Software, DestructData and WipeDrive).

You also have the option of physically destroying things like hard drives to really be sure that your data is gone for good, but that makes it impossible to donate or reuse the electronic devices and also could allow hazardous materials inside the electronics to get out.

Generally disk-wiping software is seen as the best way to protect yourself when disposing of electronics. You just have to make sure to back up all your data before you wipe the hard drive so that you don’t lose anything. When done correctly, disk-wiping software will truly and permanently destroy all data, so definitely make sure there is nothing left on the drive you could possibly need or want again.

Also understand that disk-wiping takes time. This isn’t a task you should understand at the last minute, especially if you have multiple devices to wipe out. Some experts say it can take days or even weeks to fully wipe out a hard drive. Also, you’ll want to store the disk-wiping software away somewhere secure so that it doesn’t accidentally get used on new electronics. After you wipe out the electronics you’re getting rid of, don’t let the disk-wiping software fall into the wrong hands, where it can accidentally wipe out your new data on your new devices. 

Electronics Disposal Tukwila

If you are disposing of significant amounts of electronic devices you may face additional costs associated with those devices. However, that is only if you are getting rid of them yourself through programs such as Washington State’s e-cycle program. As noted above, many electronics are completely free to dispose of through this program, but peripherals like keyboards, mice and other devices can sometimes incur an additional fee for disposal.

Of course, all of this only applies if you are getting rid of electronics on your own. We do have the capacity to dispose of junk electronics for you. You can include such items in your haul and we will get rid of them as part of our services at no extra cost.
