Burien Boxed junk removal

Homeowner’s Issue

Seattle-area weather and compact soils make clutter a bigger problem than it looks. Heavy seasonal rain, moss-prone lawns, and clay or glacial till can hide boxed junk and create drainage issues or trip hazards on slopes and entryways. Properties near Seahurst Park and in neighborhoods around White Center often face shaded corners where ivy and moss reclaim stored boxes, and slow drying times encourage rot and pests. Landlords and homeowners need cleanouts that respect stormwater rules, avoid chemical treatments, and protect landscape beds and lawns. Common owner goals are to restore usable yard space, reduce pest and liability risks, and prepare rentals or sales quickly and sustainably. A careful removal plan that sorts for reuse, recycling, composting, and proper disposal will cut repeat visits, protect slopes and drainage lines, and keep routine maintenance simple. Sustainable practice matters here: we focus on donation, recycling, composting, and organic weed-control options rather than herbicides, and we plan haul routes that reduce driveway wear and prevent soil compaction near plantings.

Our Quality Service

We assess slope, access, and soil type before we start so removals don’t damage beds, drainage swales, or lawns. Our crews sort on-site for reuse and recycling, handle heavy lifting safely, and clean affected areas so you get a neat, usable yard. Benefits include improved safety, better curb appeal, and lower long-term maintenance.

What’s Included

  • On-site assessment and full boxed junk removal (furniture, appliances, boxed trash, yard debris).
  • Sorting for donation, recycling, composting, and proper disposal.
  • Area sweep and light cleanup after removal.
  • Responsible transport to appropriate facilities.

Optional upgrades:

  • Mulch + landscape fabric to prevent future weed regrowth.
  • Organic weed control and targeted ivy management (no herbicides).
  • Gravel or small drainage improvements to protect slopes.
  • Haul-away vs. Green Bin/compost hauling options.

Before & After / Expectations

After removal, expect a tidy yard with clearer sight lines and improved drainage in heavy-rain events. In mossy or shaded areas, rake and light aeration help sunlight and airflow; water newly exposed soil sparingly to avoid washout. For ivy or perennial weeds, plan for follow-up sessions—regrowth is common, so organic spot treatments and repeat pulls are effective. We provide simple care notes after each job.

FAQs

  • How long does a typical job take? Most single-property cleanouts finish in 1–4 hours depending on volume and access.
  • Do you sort and donate usable items? Yes — we prioritize donation and recycling when items are reusable.
  • Will removal harm my lawn or beds? We protect plantings and avoid driving over planted areas; minor surface raking is expected.
  • What about disposal fees? Dump or green-bin fees may apply; we include those in the written estimate when known.
