What do junk removal companies do with the junk?

This is probably our most asked question! Well, what do Junk Removal companies do with the junk they collect?

YourJunk actually recycles over 98.6% of the junk that they collect which is high when it comes to junk collection. We are passionate about recycling which is why we have facilities to allow us to sort the waste we uplift. Our team dedicates time to make sure everything goes to the right place.

YourJunk uses registered recycling centers as we are a business. Businesses can’t use local council tips so can’t do a tip run. There are different types of recycling centers are available. We will decide which recycling center will be used once the junk we have collected is sorted.  It’s important that the right waste goes to the right place so that energy and waste can be re-used.

Any Waste Management company that you use should be a Licensed Waste Carrier and be registered with S.E.P.A . If you are unsure if a company has the legal requirements you should ask. Failing to ask, you can always search the S.E.P.A website and check listed traders as it’s a requirement that people can look for registration.

Aside from recycling, there are other means for Junk.

Some items still have life in them, and can be repurposed. We make charitable donations depending on the items so that they can go towards a good cause. We are delighted these items help people that might not have a lot. We work with a few different community groups and organizations that benefit from some items that can be re-used.

If you are ever unsure what a company does with the items, ask them.

Always read reviews from places like Google, Trusted Trader or on social media channels. That will give you a good indication of real customers dealing with the company.
