My daughter claims that during Drawer a Day season, I have Purple Heart here to do a pickup once a week. This is not true. I have only had them twice so far this year. But I recently found myself with some items too big and ugly for donation. Let's face it, no one wants old mattresses, broken yard equipment, etc. And I don't have a truck to take stuff to the dump.
This is not a paid advertisement, but I did just have the nicest interaction with two handsome young men from 1-800 Got Junk. I set up the appointment online, they called before they came, and they carried my stuff out without hurting my back. Of course there was a charge, but I was very pleased with the service so it didn't seem too bad. They recycle what they can, so they probably make money on both ends, but I'm good with that.
They get my stuff, I get my space. Seemed like a good trade to me.
