While the term ‘spring cleaning’ doesn’t necessarily apply just to spring anymore, the concept of giving your house a thorough cleanout still remains the same. With spring falling right before the warmer months, it’s the perfect time to get your home ready for summer. This generally means you need junk removal in Brisbane.
Junk removal Brisbane
When considering a big cleanout, you’ll need a service that offers junk removal in Brisbane. It’s usually much more cost-effective than making multiple trips to the tip, and it also takes the hassle away from rubbish removal.
Getting rid of clutter around the house is a great way to keep things clean and tidy. Using a household junk removal service is the best way to do it, but we’ll give you some more tips to get the most out of your spring cleaning.
Brisbane junk removal company can handle large removal jobs for you
When starting to clean up your house, it’s always a good idea to start with the larger items first. While they’re usually the most difficult to move and dispose of, they also take up the most room. So, ideally you should start with the biggest items that you want to get rid of, and clear them out of the way. The most cost-effective method is to keep all larger items in a garage or somewhere else easily accessible, and your Brisbane junk removal service can pick them up easily.
Don’t procrastinate with decluttering
Decluttering your home is actually an extremely rewarding and satisfying experience. However, most people feel daunted by the task because they don’t know where to start. It’s easy to move on to other jobs around the house and just keep moving clutter around. Rather than doing this, identify the best place to store unwanted items until a junk removal company can collect them. Everybody is guilty of procrastination, but the best option is to just get started.
While Absolute Rubbish Removals offers same-day household junk removal services, it’s much better to not feel rushed. Start early, take your time, and schedule in advance to avoid higher junk removal fees.
Take it one room at a time
Feeling overwhelmed is common when spring cleaning. Often, there is just so much stuff to sort through, and it’s hard to know where to start. This is where you need a little planning and practical thinking. Ideally, you should just focus on one area at a time. Start with a small room, and clear it out from top to bottom, including inside cupboards. When one room is done, move on to the next. Just make sure you have that dedicated junk area we mentioned, as this prevents clutter from just being moved from room to room.
Don’t forget the garage
In most Australian households, the garage becomes a dumping point for old and rarely used items. The old saying, “Out of sight, out of mind,” certainly rings true here. But there comes a time when even the most cluttered areas need to be cleaned, and the garage is definitely one of those. The added bonus is that the garage is often home to a lot of outdoor equipment that gets used more in summer. So, clean it out early and you’ll have easy access to your outdoor goods when you want them most.
Remove hazardous rubbish
There are many hazardous rubbish items that shouldn’t be left around the home. Whether it’s glass that can be broken easily or building materials containing asbestos, you should get these out of the way quickly. Absolute Rubbish Removal is licensed and trained in asbestos removal, so if you have old building materials or items containing asbestos, call the professionals to remove them safely.
Donate to local charities
One of the things people often worry about when cleaning out junk is where the waste ends up. Most people have old or damaged items around the house that aren’t fit for sale, so the easiest option is to dispose of them.
If you have items that are in better condition, but you just don’t need them anymore, consider donating to local charities. This is an especially good idea when it comes to old clothing and household items.
Since many people are conscious of how much and what types of rubbish end up in landfill, using a professional junk removal company makes sense. Absolute Rubbish Removal is big on recycling and reusing items. Rather than sending everything to landfill, we ensure we recycle any items that we can. It’s better for the planet, but also it saves you money on waste disposal fees.
Clean up garden waste
One of the most important cleanup jobs you have when preparing for summer is the outside of your home. Gardens, lawns, storage sheds, decks, patios and all other outdoor spaces should be tidied up before the warmer weather hits. Pests are the reason this should be your priority.
Summer is peak season for a number of pests, some of which are annoying and some that are dangerous. Spiders, snakes, termites, mice and a whole range of pests are attracted to junk in backyards, especially old timber. So, get your outdoor spaces free from clutter, and let the experts at Absolute Rubbish Removal take the junk away, completely hassle-free.
