At Hometown, we understand how important it is to homeowners (and business owners) to get rid of unwanted trash and junk for a fair price.

\r\n\r\n
\r\n

When you have trash, junk, or debris to dispose of, we at Hometown strongly recommend hiring a reputable trash removal company, whether you rent a dumpster or hire a junk removal company, to assist you. This will reduce the chances of overpaying and receiving poor customer service.

\r\n
\r\n\r\n

Hometown makes it easy to find qualified trash removal companies in your area.

\r\n

\r\n\r\n

Step 1: Determine the Best Disposal Solution for Your Trash

\r\n\r\n

Curbside Trash Collection

\r\n\r\n

For your regular day-to-day trash, a weekly curbside trash collection service is the ideal solution.

\r\n\r\n

Your town or city may offer local trash pick-up services, and Waste Management and Republic Services are two other very popular curbside pick-up companies that service the entire nation.

\r\n\r\n

Don't toss just anything into your curbside trash, though; be sure you first check with your pick-up services' rules and regulations to ensure you only put acceptable items into your trash bin.

\r\n\r\n

Junk Removal Services

\r\n\r\n

For small cleanup projects that produce more than your weekly trash bin can accommodate, junk removal services are likely the best and most cost-effective option.

\r\n\r\n

Junk removal companies offer a more all-inclusive service in which they load up your trash, junk, or debris for you, then haul it away to be separated and disposed of properly, i.e. donated, recycled, or taken to the landfill.

\r\n\r\n

Because of the additional labor junk removal services involve, they tend to be more expensive for larger, more involved cleanups, but are often quite cost-competitive for minor cleanups.

\r\n\r\n

For example, if you have a small pile of junk to get rid of, like an old toilet, broken chair, and a few bags of trash, a junk removal company will likely charge you somewhere around $100-$300 to dispose of it, depending on where you live.

\r\n\r\n

This amount of trash is not quite enough to make it worth renting a dumpster—which would cost $250-$450 on average for a 10 yard dumpster—unless you have a neighbor or friends/family who also have items to get rid of and may be willing to share the cost of the dumpster with you.

\r\n\r\n

Dumpster Rental Services

\r\n\r\n

For larger trash removal projects, like spring cleanings or similar home or company office cleanup projects, dumpster rental is likely the most cost-effective option.

\r\n\r\n

As previously mentioned, a 10 yard dumpster typically costs $250-$450 and is capable of accommodating a number of trash removal and cleanup projects.

\r\n\r\n

However, if your project is very large or you have heavy debris or bulky items to dispose of, a 20 yard dumpster (or a larger 30 or 40 yard dumpster) may be the better option.

\r\n\r\n

Dumpster companies are great at helping people choose the dumpster that's best for their project as long as they have adequate information to do so.

\r\n\r\n

When reaching out to dumpster rental companies, be sure you give them as much information about your project as possible so they can recommend the best dumpster size for your specific project.

\r\n\r\n

Bag Dumpsters

\r\n\r\n

Another option for trash disposal when you have three yards of debris or less is buying a bag dumpster, like The Bagster by Waste Management.

\r\n\r\n

These \"dumpsters\" are made using a strong yet lightweight tarp-like material and come with durable straps that enable the dumpster truck to pick it up and haul it away.

\r\n\r\n

However, keep in mind that three yards is not a lot of space, especially if you have bulky or oddly shaped items, and it may not be enough to complete your disposal.

\"How\r\n

Hire a Junk Removal Company

\r\n\r\n

The easiest way to get rid of an old, broken-down washer or dryer is to hire a junk removal service. Not all junk removal companies will recycle appliances, but the ones that do can usually be in and out of your house in under 30 minutes.

\r\n\r\n

Hiring a junk removal company to get rid of your washer/dryer is affordable, fast, and requires zero labor on your end. Here's how it works...

\r\n\r\n
    \r\n\t
  1. Get in touch with at least 2-3 local junk removal providers in your area for quotes. You can search your zip code on Hometown to quickly request free quotes from multiple providers and easily compare pricing, availability, and customer service. 
    2. \r\n\t
  2. After comparing each service provider, hire the best junk removal company and schedule your washer and dryer pick-up. 
    3. \r\n\t
  3. As scheduled, the junk removal company will typically send a crew of 2 people to safely load up your bulky appliances. Using dollies/hand trucks and ratchet straps to secure your washer and dryer, the junk removal team will carefully haul your unwanted washer and dryer out of whatever room they're stored in and take them right to their truck or trailer.
    4. \r\n\t
  4. From there, the washer and dryer will be loaded onto their hauling vehicle where they will be securely positioned for safe travel. 
    5. \r\n\t
  5. Once your washer/dryer is loaded onto their truck or trailer and is ready for transport, you'll be provided with an invoice that you can either pay on the spot or can call into their office and pay over the phone.
    6. \r\n\t
  6. The junk removal company will then haul your washer and dryer to the appropriate donation center or recycling facility. In rural areas where these options are not available for washers and dryers, they may have to be taken to a landfill, but this is the least preferred method of washer and dryer disposal. When available, repurposing and recycling is always best practice.
    7. \r\n
\r\n\r\n

The price that you'll be charged for a junk removal company to haul away your unwanted washer and dryer will depend on a variety of different factors, like the disposal methods available in your area, the cost of recycling/disposal in your area, how difficult it is for them to access your appliances (i.e. presence of steep stairs), the amount of space your appliances take up in their truck/trailer, where you're located, and who you hire.

\r\n\r\n

With that being said, the national average cost to have a junk removal company remove an unwanted washer and dryer ranges from $150-$300.

\r\n\r\n

The best strategy to getting the best price in your area is to find locally-owned and operated junk removal services and get multiple quotes to compare pricing and customer service. Hometown makes it easy with our single quote request form. By providing your zip code and answering a few short questions about your appliance removal needs, you'll be able to request quotes from up to 3 different qualified providers in your area, completely free of charge.

Rent a Dumpster

\r\n\r\n

If you’re doing a large renovation or home cleanout project and have a lot of other items to get rid of in addition to your old washer and dryer, renting a temporary dumpster is a great option.

\r\n\r\n
\r\n

Roll-off dumpsters feature a swinging back door so that you can easily walk in bulky and heavy items, including appliances.

\r\n
\r\n\r\n

Not all disposal companies will accept appliances like washers or dryers in their containers and failing to follow their guidelines could result in additional fees and fines. Be sure to speak with several different companies to ensure you find one that accepts your intended items and to compare pricing.

\r\n\r\n

Renting a dumpster is a simple process. Getting different quotes from local dumpster rental companies in your area to compare pricing and customer service will help you choose the best service for the job. Once you find a company you like who has the dumpster rental availability you require, you can hire them by signing a dumpster rental agreement and scheldieg a dumpster drop-off time.

\r\n\r\n

As scheduled, a dumpster will be brought to your location and carefully placed in your driveway or parking lot. If you rent a roll-off dumpster, ask your rental company if they will provide wooden boards or plywood to place underneath the dumpster's steel feet to provide added protection to your driveway. If you rent a trailer dumpster, the rubber wheels attached will be protection enough and will make placing your dumpster a fast and easy process.

\r\n\r\n

Once your rental is placed in the designated area, you'll be left to add your unwanted items to the container at your own pace. We highly recommend recruiting friends or family to help you load any heavy or bulky items to avoid injury.

\r\n\r\n

After you're done with your rental, you can either contact the dumpster company to arrange for pick-up, or you simply wait for them to come pick-up the dumpster if pick-up arrangements were made when signing your rental agreement. 

\r\n\r\n

The dumpster company will come and securely load your dumpster rental back onto their transportation truck and haul it to the nearest recycling center (or landfill when appropriate). The dumpster will be weighed before and after it is emptied, and the dumpster company will be charged for whatever disposal method is chosen based on the weight of the items in the container. 

\r\n\r\n

After the dumpster has been emptied and the rental company has paid whatever fees they were charged to unload your items, you'll be sent a final bill and that can be paid online or over the phone. 

\r\n\r\n

The price that you'll be charged to rent a dumpster to dispose of your washer and dryer will depend on many different factors, like the size of the dumpster, the weight of the items placed inside the dumpster, the disposal method and cost of recycling or landfill fees in your area, where you're located, who you hire, and more.

\r\n\r\n

With that being said, 10 yard dumpsters are the perfect size for appliance removal and cost anywhere from $250-$450 on average, but will be more or less based on your particular circumstance.

\r\n\r\n

Just like with junk removal services, you can locate and request free quotes from dumpster providers in your area by searching for dumpster rentals on Hometown. Read verified reviews from real customers to help you find a reputable dumpster company near you.

Swap Out With New Washer/Dryer Delivery

\r\n\"removing\r\n

If you are replacing your old washer or dryer with a new one and are having it delivered and installed, ask the company if they will remove your unwanted washer/dryer while they are there.

\r\n\r\n

Many will only do so if the old washer/dryer is still in working condition. This isn’t always the case, but in the event that it is, you’ll have to find another solution.

\r\n\r\n

The cost to have your old washer/dryer removed when your new one is delivered will primarily depend on the company you hire and cost of living in your area, but typically costs between $25-$75 per appliance, or $50-$125 total.

\r\n\r\n

Donate

\r\n\r\n

If you aren’t having a new washer or dryer delivered, another way to get rid of your old washer/dryer is to donate it or list it as a free item on Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace.

\r\n\r\n

Like the option above, donation only works if your old washer/dryer is still in working condition unless you can find someone that wants to pick it up for scrap metal.

\r\n\r\n

There are many different ways to donate appliances depending on where you live. For example, getting rid of a washer and dryer in Knoxville, IA can be as simple as contacting donation centers in the area and having them come load and transport your unwanted washer and dryer for you. Donationtown.org helps Iowa residents schedule appointments for donation pick-ups for free! Places like Habitat for Humanity or The Salvation Army will haul away your items for you if they're accepted as donations.

\r\n\r\n

Not only is donating items is always free, but you can actually earn money back by getting a donation receipt and claiming it on your taxes for the year. 

\r\n\r\n

Schedule Bulk Trash Pick-up

\r\n\"old\r\n

Some municipal weekly trash pick-up services offer bulk trash pick–up if it is scheduled ahead of time while others only offer it a few days out of the year. Not every company does, and even fewer offer this for appliances, but double-checking with your residential trash service is worth a call.

\r\n\r\n

While the cost of your curbside appliance pick-up will vary based on where you live and who you hire, you can expect to pay somewhere between $35-$75 per item, so $70-$125 for both a washer and dryer.

\r\n\r\n

If you’re able to arrange this in a timeframe that accommodates your schedule, you’ll need to make sure you have help moving your fridge out to the side of the road.

\r\n\r\n
\r\n

Washers and dryers are very heavy appliances, and not having the proper tools or manpower to do this type of heavy lifting can result in serious injuries.

\r\n
\r\n\r\n

If you aren't 100% confident in your ability to transfer your washer/dryer to the end of the driveway, hiring a junk removal company might be the best option. It’s also important to note that getting rid of your washer/dryer with a bulk trash pick-up service could mean that it will end up in your local landfill.

\r\n\r\n

If you’re environmentally conscious, renting a dumpster or hiring a junk removal service that will recycle your old appliances is the best solution.

Letting old rubber tires collect and sit on your property can welcome a host of health hazards, so getting rid of them swiftly and legally is important.

\r\n\r\n

Mosquitoes thrive in areas where water has collected and old rubber tires being left out in the elements is the perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes and other diseases-carrying pests.

\r\n\r\n

In addition to being a mosquito magnet, tires that are allowed to bake in the sun release methane into the air, posing a health risk to you, your neighbors, pets, and wildlife.

\r\n\r\n

Because the material tires are made from releases methane, it causes tires to bubble to the surface of landfills, breaking the surface, and exposing surrounding areas to harmful toxins.

\r\n\r\n

Recycling or repurposing your old tires are the only disposal options to consider.

\r\n\r\n
\r\n

Rubber tires cannot be taken to landfills and should not be put in your regular garbage or a dumpster with other debris. Attempting to do so could result in fines depending on the laws in your municipality.

\"How\r\n

How to Get Rid of Your Old Tires

\r\n\r\n

\r\n\r\n

EPA-Approved Tire Recycling Center

\r\n\r\n

Some recycling centers have a system for recycling rubber tires while others do not, so check with your local center(s) to confirm their rules and regulations before assuming that they'll accept your tires and taking them there.

\r\n\r\n

There are also many recycling centers throughout the U.S. that are specific for just tires.

\r\n\r\n

Depending on how far away one is located from you, these centers are a convenient way to get rid of unwanted tires.

\r\n\r\n

\r\n\r\n

Tire Retailer

\r\n\r\n

Places that sell tires will usually accept old tires for a small fee. 

\r\n\r\n

They know exactly where and how to recycle this type of material and have programs in place to do so efficiently.

\r\n\r\n

Tire retailers usually charge somewhere between $5-$10 per rubber tire that you're wanting to get rid of.

\r\n\r\n

\r\n\r\n

Community Recycling Events

\r\n\r\n

Many cites and townships all over the country have partnered with local recycling centers to create community events to help citizens get rid of hazardous material that can't be thrown in with their regular weekly trash or recycling bins.

\r\n\r\n
\r\n

In addition to tires, items like old electronics, car batteries, and appliances should not be dumped in landfills and should be properly recycled. 

\r\n
\r\n\r\n

Because communities recognize that recycling these items can cost money or require additional effort, they create these community recycling events to make it easier and encourage people to do the right thing.

\r\n\r\n

Speak with a representative from your county's recycling division for more information about upcoming events.

\r\n\r\n

\r\n\r\n

Repurpose Your Tires

\r\n\"Child\r\n

Rather than haul your tires off to be repurposed by someone else, get creative and repurpose them yourself.

\r\n\r\n

Rubber tires can be reused for gardens, landscaping, playgrounds, art, and more!

Hire Junk Removal

\r\n\r\n

Hiring a junk removal company to come remove your pile of old tires is a quick and easy way to get the job done without having to lift a finger.

\r\n\r\n

Depending on the amount of tires you have to get rid of, a junk removal crew could complete the removal in under 20 minutes. 

\r\n\r\n

Most junk removal services have a minimum fee they charge for the smallest of jobs, which averages around $75-$100 and goes up based on volume and the amount of time it takes for them to remove your items.

\r\n\r\n
\r\n

Hiring a junk removal company to remove only one or two tires might not be a cost-effective option, but if you have collected a larger pile over time, a junk removal crew could save you a ton of time and effort.

\r\n
\r\n\r\n

The best way to get the best price is to contact multiple junk removal companies for quotes to compare pricing, availability, and customer service.

\r\n\r\n

We recommend getting at least 2-3 quotes to ensure you're paying a competitive price.

\r\n\r\n

Hometown makes it easy to final local junk removal providers that service your area.

Rent a Dumpster

\r\n\"Large\r\n

While not all dumpster rental companies accept tires, some can be \"clean loaded\" with tires to be taken to a recycling center.

\r\n\r\n

Clean loading a dumpster means to only load one specific type of debris into the dumpster (in this case, rubber tires) so that the material can be recycled or reused somehow.

\r\n\r\n

This is a great option if you've accumulated enough tires to be able to fill a dumpster and if you've found a dumpster rental company near you that agrees to transport these tires to an EPA-approved recycling facility.

\r\n\r\n
\r\n

Stay away from a dumpster rental company that accepts tires but intends on dumping them at the landfill. 

\r\n
\r\n\r\n

10 yard dumpsters are typically the smallest temporary dumpster rental option and costs somewhere near $250-$350 on average.

\r\n\r\n

Like junk removal, Hometown helps homeowners and business owners find dumpster rentals in their area that are affordable, reputable, and locally-owned.

Most storm damage is covered (at least to an extent) by homeowner’s insurance.

\r\n\r\n

The first step in handling a storm damage cleanup is to contact your insurance company. The damage may be covered and paid for by the insurance company, including the cleanup, so contact your insurance company for details.

\r\n\r\n

However, the cost of cleaning up after a storm can vary quite significantly based on the type and overall scale of the damage.

\r\n\r\n
Common cleanup options include hiring a junk removal service, renting a dumpster, or DIY cleanup/disposal. Costs can vary from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars.
\r\n\r\n

This guide will cover typical costs to cleanup damage caused by a tornado, hurricane, windstorm, and other severe storms using the most popular cleanup options.

Hire a Junk Removal Company

\r\n\"Crew\r\n

Most local junk removal companies offer expertise in storm damage cleanups.

\r\n\r\n

This may include cleaning up yard debris, tree branches, small structure damage (e.g., sheds), and general debris cleanups.

\r\n\r\n

Many junk removal companies provide service for larger storm cleanups as well, including significant damage to homes or buildings.

\r\n\r\n

We suggest getting several estimates before hiring a junk removal company.

\r\n\r\n
Don’t base your decision on price alone, as the reputation of a company is a key factor in finding a good junk hauler.
\r\n\r\n

It’s important to involve your insurance company in this process.

\r\n\r\n

For the most severe storm damage, it may be necessary to contact FEMA for assistance.

\r\n\r\n

Average Cost of Storm Damage Cleanup: $300-$2,000+

\r\n\r\n

It’s difficult to pinpoint an exact cost figure in this case due to the varying degrees of storm damage specific to each instance.

\r\n\r\n

Cleaning up a pickup truckload worth of tree branches following a thunderstorm will likely cost $300-$400, while cleaning up following a major flooding event could cost thousands of dollars, if not tens of thousands.

Rent a Dumpster

\r\n\"Dumpster\r\n

Renting a dumpster is a cost-effective option for storm cleanups.

\r\n\r\n

For example, a 10 yard dumpster can be rented for as little as $250 in many parts of the country. (Larger dumpsters typically will cost more.)

\r\n\r\n

Most dumpster rental companies accept yard debris or general storm damage debris, but there may be some exceptions.

\r\n\r\n

One example is moldy drywall or other toxic materials.

\r\n\r\n

Be sure to describe the type of debris and overall project details with the dumpster rental company before booking a dumpster.

\r\n\r\n

Average Cost of Dumpster Rentals: $250-$750

\r\n\r\n

Dumpster rental prices will vary based on location and the size of the container.

\r\n\r\n

The price to rent a dumpster typically includes everything (drop off, disposal, etc.) and seven days to load the dumpster.

\r\n\r\n

Most rental companies enforce a weight limit for each dumpster, so be cautious not to exceed it when loading heavy or wet debris.

DIY Cleanup

\r\n\"Large\r\n

Disposing of the storm damage debris yourself is always an option.

\r\n\r\n

It may not be the safest, easiest, or even the most cost-effective choice for this type of project, but it is still a viable option in some cases.

\r\n\r\n

DIY disposal can be good choice for smaller storm cleanups.

\r\n\r\n

For example, cleaning up tree branches or a small downed tree is typically something homeowners can do themselves.

\r\n\r\n

Tools may be required for the job, such as a chainsaw, woodchipper, wheelbarrows, and other hand tools. Trucks and/or trailers are also required to haul away the debris.

\r\n\r\n

Average Cost of DIY Storm Cleanup: $0-$100

\r\n\r\n

DIY cleanups do not necessarily equate to “free.\"

\r\n\r\n

There are several costs associated with DIY storm cleanups, including possible equipment or tool rentals, landfill dump fees, fuel costs, and your time.

\r\n\r\n

In many cases, it may be a better deal to rent a dumpster or hire a junk removal service to complete the job.

Carpet removal might not be the most glamorous home improvement project, but it's a task that many homeowners will need to tackle at some point.

\r\n\r\n
\r\n

Whether you're replacing old carpet with new flooring or simply want to refresh your space, removing carpet yourself can save you a significant amount of money. However, like any DIY project, it's important to approach it with the right knowledge and know when to hire the pros instead.

\r\n
\r\n\r\n

In this article, we'll explore DIY carpet removal, when hiring a professional is best, and how carpet removal works, which will help you save money in the long run and ensure you get the job done right.

Why Remove Carpet Yourself?

\r\n\r\n

Before diving into the tips, it's essential to understand why you might want to remove carpet yourself rather than hiring a professional. There are several compelling reasons:

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

How Carpet Removal Is Done

\r\n\r\n

Now, let's delve into the DIY carpet removal process and various tips to ensure you can handle the task effectively...

\r\n\r\n

1. Gather the Necessary Tools and Supplies

\r\n\r\n

Before you start tearing up your carpet, make sure you have the following tools and supplies ready:

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Having the right tools on hand will make the process smoother and safer.

\r\n\r\n

2. Prepare the Room

\r\n\r\n

Clear the room of all furniture and objects that could obstruct your work. This includes smaller items like lamps, decorations, and smaller pieces of furniture. For larger items, like sofas and beds, you may need to disassemble them or move them to another room.

\r\n\r\n

3. Start with the Edges

\r\n\r\n

Begin by using your utility knife to cut away the carpet along one edge of the room. Carefully make an incision near the wall, then use your pliers to grab a corner of the carpet and pull it up. Once you have a corner lifted, you can begin to peel the carpet away from the tack strips along the walls.

\r\n\r\n

4. Remove the Tack Strips

\r\n\r\n

Tack strips are narrow wooden strips with small, sharp nails that hold the carpet in place. Carefully use your pry bar or crowbar to detach the carpet from these strips. Be cautious not to damage the subfloor in the process.

\r\n\r\n

5. Roll Up and Dispose of the Carpet

\r\n\r\n

As you remove the carpet from the tack strips, roll it up tightly to make it easier to handle. If your carpet is in good condition, you might be able to donate or recycle it. Otherwise, dispose of it properly according to your local regulations.

\r\n\r\n

6. Remove the Carpet Pad

\r\n\r\n

Underneath the carpet, you'll typically find a carpet pad. This is often held in place with adhesive or staples. Use your utility knife to cut and remove the pad in sections. Be careful when handling the pad, as it can be heavy and may contain dust or allergens.

\r\n\r\n

7. Clean the Subfloor

\r\n\r\n

Once you've removed the carpet and pad, it's essential to clean and inspect the subfloor. Remove any leftover staples, nails, or adhesive residue. Make any necessary repairs to ensure a smooth and even surface for your new flooring.

\r\n\r\n

8. Dispose of Waste Properly

\r\n\r\n

Dispose of all carpet, padding, and other materials in accordance with your local waste disposal regulations. Some materials may be recyclable, so check with your local recycling center for guidance.

\r\n\r\n

If you want to handle all the work yourself, renting a dumpster is a great option for disposing of the unwanted carpet. With a temporary roll-off dumpster, you'll be able to load the carpet into the dumpster yourself, go at your own pace, and get rid of other unwanted junk you have lying around your house in the process.

\r\n\r\n

If you'd rather have someone else handle the physical removing of your carpet as well as the proper disposal, professional junk removal services are likely the best option. Junk removal services typically cost more than renting a dumpster but that cost gains you added convenience, efficiency, and safety.

9. Consider Professional Help for Difficult Areas

\r\n\r\n

In some cases, you may encounter challenges during the carpet removal process, such as extremely stubborn adhesive or damaged subflooring. If you're uncomfortable tackling these issues on your own, it's wise to consult a professional to avoid potential complications.

\r\n\r\n

Removing carpet yourself can be a rewarding DIY project that saves you money and allows you to customize your home's flooring. However, it's important to ensure that the job is done right and that your room is ready for whatever flooring option you choose to install.

\r\n\r\n

If you do the work yourself, but you do it wrong, you'll end up paying more in the long run. Remember to take your time, prioritize safety, and be prepared for any unexpected challenges that may arise during the process. With the right tools and a little patience, you can transform your space and enjoy the satisfaction of a job well done.

\r\n\r\n

With that said, DIY isn't the only option. In fact, in many cases, hiring a professional is the smarter and more cost-effective choice.

Why Hire a Professional to Remove Carpet?

\r\n\"peeled\r\n

The easiest way to get rid of old carpeting is to hire a junk removal company to come and haul it away or to assist with the total removal.

\r\n\r\n

Junk removal companies are committed to donating or recycling as much as possible, with carpet being no exception. To confirm your carpet is going to the right place, you can confirm with the companies you speak to how they plan to dispose of your old carpet. Donating and recycling is typically less expensive than disposing of something at a landfill, so if your carpet is salvageable, you could save a little bit of money by having it taken to the nearest donation center, like a Habitat for Humanity ReStore, or recycling facility.

\r\n\r\n

Carpet removal via junk removal services is easy:

\r\n\r\n
    \r\n\t
  1. Contact multiple junk removal companies for quotes via Hometown to compare pricing, availability, and customer service.
    2. \r\n\t
  2. Once you've decided which company is the right choice for the job, schedule a time for removal. Because junk removal quotes typically need to be provided on-site, they can often get started right away if you choose.
    3. \r\n\t
  3. After the junk removal company has removed and hauled away the carpeting, you'll receive an invoice with the balance owed.
    4. \r\n
\r\n\r\n

Be sure you hire the right person to handle your carpet removal project with the help of Hometown.

\r\n\r\n
