After close to a year spending most of our time at home, we've probably realized that we don't really need all the things we tend to keep. Stashes can quickly pile up – it’s easy to lose track. With so many people working and learning from home right now, space could be at a premium. Junk removal is the obvious solution for starting out the new year with a clean home and clear mind.

At Junk Gone Today, we’re here to help. Let’s get into our top suggestions for clearing out during winter.

Yard Cleanup Made Easy

Did you finally cross some big projects off of your to-do list this past summer? Kudos to you – that sense of accomplishment is like nothing else. But even the best project manager might overestimate supply needs. If you find that leftover construction debris is hanging around in your home, basement, garage, shed, or yard, it can quickly become a hazard or a home for pests.

Maybe you developed your outdoor space to create a peaceful oasis, a spot where you could safely spend quality time with family and friends. Your patio, garden, or pool might be the retreat you’ve always wanted, but the piles of leftover rubble likely aren’t. Excess building materials can also make it harder to find room for winter storage of outside furniture or décor.

Your landscape can be a major source of debris. During fall cleanup you might have limbed up a large tree, removed shrubs, or cleaned leaves from your gutters and grass. In our last snowfall, the weight of the quickly falling precipitation could have broken limbs, brought down entire trees, or caused other damage to your property. Now you’re left with piles of rotting material that are quickly becoming an eyesore. Junk removal is the easiest fix. Clearing away all of that debris now will leave less work for a busy spring season and keep your property safe and tidy through the winter.

At this point in the year, temperatures aren’t conducive to yard maintenance – the team at Junk Gone Today can easily lighten your load. Stay inside and keep warm, we’ll do the heavy lifting.

Winterizing and Junk Removal

It’s that point in the year when we dedicate time to making sure that our homes can safely and efficiently withstand winter’s onslaught. As you handle this annual task, you might find that some big items need to be replaced or repaired. If winterization projects turn into major renovations, remember that Junk Gone Today is your local, Cleveland junk removal company. Regardless of the season we are able to haul away these common but hard-to-dispose-of items:

Old doors or windows
Spent appliances
Broken HVAC components
Faulty water heaters, boilers, or radiators
Cracked or corroded chimney pipes

As you’re checking your home for energy efficiency and safety, caulking holes, and adding insulation and weather-stripping, remember Junk Gone Today when little projects turn big.

Keep Your Home Fire Safe

Sadly, winters in Cleveland inevitably see families suffering at the mercy of a house fire. Everyone knows that a clear exit route is key, but we don’t always apply that knowledge to how we organize our homes. Now that the cold is upon us and heating systems will be taxed, ensuring that our homes are as uncluttered as possible takes on added importance. Not only does less clutter mean less to lose, it also ensures that should worst-case become reality, safe and timely escape is possible.

It’s going to be a long, cold winter spent at home – let’s make it a safe, enjoyable, peaceful space. The frightful weather is one good reason to stay inside and keep warm, dedicating time to clearing out unused items. Another motivation is that once spring arrives, it will be impossible to stay cooped up – you’ll want to soak in the sun. Instead, make a new tradition and get started on winter cleaning. Set yourself up for a clutter-free new year!
