Appliance Removal in Dunmore, PA

Let’s face it, appliances break. They are one of the most common items TO break in a household. When these items break, they need to be replaced. More often than not, big businesses charge an astronomical fee (some over $175) to remove them.

When a stove, refrigerator, freezer, dish washer, washer, dryer break, they need to be removed. Junken Monkeys Hauling Company removes appliances.

Our pricing for removing appliances varies on the labor involved, the amount of appliances, as well as the amount of other junk going. If the only item being removed is the singular appliance, for instance the refrigerator seen in the picture, the price is of our minimum for that area. The reason is that the appliances can be recycled. If we don’t get charged to dump something, neither should you.

Stepping Out of Our Comfort Zone to Remove Junk and Debris in Scranton, PA

by dustinbowen7, posted in Blog, Uncategorized

Collapsed wooden ceiling on a concrete floor in a dimly lit room with gray walls. Debris is scattered around.

An empty, dilapidated room with peeling walls and a damaged wooden floor, surrounded by crumbling debris.

There is no limit to what we find we can do for our clients!

Early last week, one of our clients called and asked if we removed plaster, which we do. Upon laying eyes on the plaster during the estimate, we came to find out it was a whole wall. Of course, with junk removal, there is occasionally room for light demo and tear down.

I informed our client that this project is a little outside our realm of work, but that I will research the ‘how” and figure out if its obtainable. I spent the weekend doing just that (YouTube for the win).

On Monday, we put our research to the test. Our team was able to successfully cut the wall into thirds to allow for a safe removal of the wall. As you can see in the pictures, it was no small feat.

To get off the topic of junk for a second, if you’re reading this, I challenge you to do something out of your comfort zone today. Talk to someone (or something) that you normally wouldn’t, do something above and beyond even for your awesome self, or study a topic that would have previously intimidated you. If you know me (Dustin) at all, you’ll know my lack of ability to operate one of these power tools. Although I didn’t personally cut the wall, I am confident now that I can in the future personally, and that my team and I can do so on the professional level. Don’t be scared, you either succeed or you learn.

At one point or another, each property will undergo renovations. Tearing down walls, adding doors, windows, kitchen demo, the list goes on. The end result is (hopefully) the desired upgrade, but what about the scraps? The boxes of the new floor, the wood trimmings that were not needed, where do they go? Good News! Junken Monkeys Hauling company removes these materials!

Our all inclusive service, which includes all the work, allows you to pile up the debris and allows us to can it up and take it away! Speaking to our clients, this has been found to be the easiest means of doing “DIY” renovations.

We use different techniques in the removal of the debris. Some of our favorite tools include shovels, tarps, garbage cans, gloves, and of course a broom for such removals. Although we are not a cleaning company, we do our best to sweep up once the “bigger stuff” is picked up and removed.

Although we also are not a demolition team, we do know some companies that we highly recommend and can definitely point you in the right direction! We are always here to help you out, please don’t hesitate to reach out and ask.

Have you been renovating your property? What were your techniques in keeping everything organized? Comment below and let us know!

Free Exercise Removal Month!

Huge Announcement!!

Each month, we will be announcing an “item of the month” in which we will be DEEPLY discounting a specific item or type of item during a month that it makes sense and that our data shows was a popular pick up item during that month last year.

This month is “FREE EXERCISE EQUIPMENT PICK UP”. We chose exercise equipment due to last December having multiple home gym items removed for clients- as well as allowing our clients the ability to make space for those New Year’s Resolution!!

We are here to help you! If you have any questions please do not hesitate to comment or message!!

Tis the season! As the cold and snowy weather rolls in, we politely ask that you bear with us. Sometimes even the most confirmed of appointments we can not make due to the weather. Our team’s safety, and your safety is our #1 priority.

What we CAN do:

From December to March we will begin booking appointments with 2 dates, in the event that weather prevents us from arriving for our initial appointment. We are confident that this will help prevent any issues with all parties scheduling.

Ready to book an appointment? Maybe just an estimate? Contact us today!

Man, it has been a CRAZY summer! We have been able to service many new clients, some old ones, and it was an EXTREMELY successful summer! We picked up two major duplex projects, one of which we will be finishing today, the other is a hoarder house project for the city with the end result of a Veteran’s center for Scranton! I must apologize…I have not updated the site as much as I would have liked to over the summer, but I am definitely striving to get better at this! Here are some things coming up from Junken Monkeys!

This week we had the opportunity to clear out trash and debris from Pittston, PA. John and I set a timer, we got this cleaned up and were on our way to the next stop in 13 Minutes! In situations where we can, such as this, we are totally able to save our clients money as our labor fee was very very low.

Also, we always do our best to put your items back where they belong. Notice the garbage cans in each picture. Although not a cleaning company, we still take the extra steps to do our best to wow our clients.

While we have you, here are some of our newest posts:

No Shopping Cart Left Behind!

by dustinbowen7, posted in Uncategorized

When we remove junk, we always do our best to, when applicable, return the items that may not be yours, or that were left to you, back to their home. This was the case in Scranton, PA when a client had some unwanted items left in her yard. This was unfortunate, but we did our absolute best to accommodate and help her out.

As you can see in the pictures above. Her yard looked awesome once these items were removed. The mattress and the other waste was brought to the landfill, but the shopping cart was brought back to Gerrity’s Supermarket in West Scranton. When we have the opportunity to do the right thing, we always do it. The shopping cart obviously cost the store money to get and help their customers, so we did our part to help out as well.

Other unique ways to help out our community is to donate and recycle. Some items that we always recycle is clothing, metals, paper, plastic as well as other furniture/necessities.

In terms of pricing, this particular project fell under our minimum charge category due to the small labor and very few items. This is a good example of how our minimum pricing works.
