The holidays are a stressful time of year. Making time to cook, spend time with family, buying gifts, working, and handling affairs within the home can all take a huge toll. But, once everything calms down and peace is on the horizon, you can relax. That is, until you learn it’s time to move into a new house. Whether it’s a new job, wanting to be closer to friends, or going back to your hometown, every move requires you to do four things: Declutter your home, pack your things for the actual move, load up the moving truck, and dispose of your waste.
Where Do I Start?
The process of decluttering your home can sound daunting when you think about everything you own. An easy place to start is with something like Marie Kondo’s KonMari Method, a category-by-category system that will help you simplify and organize your home. This method involves going through each of your items one by one to determine if they bring you joy. If they do, you keep them; and, if they don’t, you get purge them. This process can help you determine what furniture, appliances, exercise equipment, instruments, etc. you want to leave.
But what do you do after you’ve completed the steps in her book? What do you do with the things you couldn’t renew, reuse, recycle, or give away? Do you just throw them on the curb and hope for the best? Do you drive it to a landfill? Or do you just leave it for the realtors to deal with?
Well, that’s where Junk in the Box comes in.

Why Do I Need Junk in the Box?
You need Junk in the Box to help you because navigating bulk waste and trash removal is important. Local ordinances and laws state that bulk waste items for curb removal is 10 cubic yards (one 5x5x10 pile) per week and that loose bulk items must be bagged, boxed, or containerized. You’re also not allowed to put items that can’t be handled by human power by the curb, nor can you mix it with garbage, yard waste, or tires. If your bulk waste items aren’t compliant, it will not be removed by your weekly bulk waste hauler. Instead, the City of Augusta will collect it and charge you additional fees for it. Instead of paying expensive fees for bulk removal waste, skip the hassle and call Junk in The Box.
