Moving is exciting — until you realize how much stuff you’ve accumulated over the years. Whether you’re downsizing, relocating, or helping a family move, a moving-out cleanout can quickly become overwhelming. But with a little planning, you can save time, reduce costs, and make the process smooth from start to finish.
Give yourself a week or two before moving day to sort items into four simple categories: keep, donate, recycle, or dispose.
Before tossing everything, identify what could still be useful. Many local charities in New Jersey, like Goodwill, Habitat for Humanity ReStores, and Salvation Army, accept gently used furniture, appliances, and clothing.
JM Junkers can even sort and deliver donatable items for you — saving you the trip and giving back to the community.
Certain items like paint, chemicals, and propane tanks can’t be picked up by junk removal companies due to safety regulations.
Contact your local New Jersey waste management center for hazardous material drop-off locations before cleanout day.
Peak moving season (spring through summer) fills up fast. Book your junk removal at least a week in advance to secure your ideal time slot. JM Junkers offers same-day or next-day pickups across New Jersey — perfect for last-minute movers.
Junk removal pricing is based on volume — the less space your items take up, the less you pay.
