People talk a lot these days about the virtues of decluttering and purging your home of unwanted things. What they don’t mention is that junk hauling trash is just pure pleasure... that is, if you don’t have to tackle it by yourself.
I know, because when my friend in Carmichael (let’s call her Sue) recently tried sorting out junk and hauling trash all on her own, she ended up overwhelmed before she was even halfway done.
Exhausted, she called me to discuss a solution. Here’s how the conversation went.
Sue: I don’t want to do this all alone. In fact, I can’t. But I can’t handle looking at these piles of stuff anymore either. So now I’m online, trying to find a junk pick up service near me. What do you think?
Me: Hmm, I don’t know. How much does a service like that cost?
Sue: Most of the junk companies near me say they give free estimates. Sounds like it’s worth a try.
Me: Okayyy... but why don’t you get a few different estimates so you can figure out the going rate?
Sue: Wil do.
Sue: Well. It’s over. I did it. I paid some guys with a truck to take away the trash.
Me: How did that work out?
Sue: It was the weirdest experience. When the team showed up, I didn’t have to do a thing except point at the junk I wanted removed and then watch them take it away. They were fast and clean, and they didn’t charge a fortune, either.
Me: Really? Sounds like you got good service.
Sue: Yeah, it was really kind of awesome to sit there and watch them loading up their truck. All that old clutter and garbage I’d been hanging onto for so long and suddenly they just made it disappear from my life. Very freeing!
Me: So was it worth it?
Sue: Yes, actually the whole experience has left me feeling fantastic.
