"Duke and Barry were very pleasant guys who checked in with me when unsure what to remove and did a very thorough job. Sarah the owner, clearly communicated with me and sent me a text to alert me movers were 30 minutes away. After waste removal completed Sarah called me and said she had just spoken with movers about paint left behind. She said there was a miscommunication and that she could remove the paint herself and showed up 30 minutes later. Imagine an owner going above and beyond to provide superior service and customer satisfaction. This is why I gave Sarah and her company 5 stars."

"BeeZee Junk Removal helped me with a light demolition job and construction garbage removal at a single family home. It was really easy to communicate with them and didnâ t need to go meet them as the job was on lockbox and agreement was verbally done by phone. After job was done, I found the area clean of all debris, all doors locked and received the invoice the same night. The cost of the job was cheaper than renting a conventional dumpster (that could scratch my driveway). Overall very polite and professional, totally recommended!!!"

What are the 6 types of waste?
There are many different types of waste, but they tend to fall into a few main categories.
- Municipal waste: This is what you probably know as garbage. This category includes everything you’d throw into your trash can, including kitchen waste, paper, and plastic.
- Hazardous waste: This includes things like gasoline and pesticides. Note: If you need any waste in this category removed, you’ll likely need to call in a specialized company and/or consult local ordinances about how to dispose of them.
- Medical waste: This category includes things like medical tools and waste from hospitals. You typically wouldn’t call a traditional junk removal company for this type of waste, as it will require a more specialized service.
- Industrial waste: Waste in this category comes specifically from processing plants, factories, and other similar sites. Again, specific companies tend to handle this type of waste.
- Waste prevention: This is what we know as recycling. If you specifically want a junk removal service to recycle any items they take away, be sure to let them know.
- Construction and demolition debris: Junk removal companies can often help you with construction debris removal, including hauling away things like wood, dirt, and concrete, which can be helpful during home renovations.

How you’ll get ready for a junk removal company to come can depend on what they’re hauling away, but there are a few best practices you should follow no matter what.
First, make sure you have a list of everything you need the junk removal service to take away (you should also share this with them beforehand). Next, clear the area where the team will work, making sure it’s as free of obstructions as possible, any doors are unlocked, etc. If you can safely put all the junk they need to take away in one area, go ahead and do that.
Finally, be sure that you’re available at the time you schedule with the junk removal company and you ask any lingering questions before they arrive.
