Junk removal in Abington
Abington homes have garages, basements, and yards, and the township's large item pickup stops at the curb. We come inside and carry it out.
Abington homes and what that means for junk removal
Abington Township covers a lot of ground just north of Cheltenham, including communities like Roslyn, Ardsley, Glenside, Willow Grove, and Rydal. The housing runs from brick twins and post-war single homes to stone colonials and split-levels, most with a driveway, a garage, a basement, and a real back yard.
Plenty of families have been in the same Abington house for a long time, so garage cleanouts, basement cleanouts, and downsizing jobs come up a lot.
What usually needs to go
- Garage cleanouts and old tools
- Basement furniture and storage
- Downsizing and estate contents
- Old appliances and exercise equipment
- Sheds, swing sets, and outdoor furniture
What leaving junk can do to an Abington home
Garages you can't park in
A garage full of junk pushes cars onto the driveway and street, and old fuel and chemicals stored there are a fire risk next to the house.
Basement moisture
Items stored on basement floors soak up moisture and mildew, and a single water heater leak can ruin everything nearby.
Outdoor wear and pests
Furniture, wood, and equipment left outside rot and rust, and give rodents and insects shelter near the house.
The curb problem
Township large item pickup only collects from the curb, so heavy items still have to come out of the basement or garage somehow.
Handling it yourself in Abington
Abington Township offers paid large item pickup that you schedule online or by phone. Items have to be at the curb by 7 a.m., metal and non-metal items are picked up on different days, and township crews won't go onto private property to get them. The township's spring and fall clean-out weeks don't accept large items like sofas, mattresses, or appliances.
If the job is heavy, inside the house, or bigger than a few pieces, that's where we help. For old paint and chemicals, Montgomery County runs hazardous waste collections, and Philadelphia's events are also open to Montgomery County residents.
Township rules change, so check with the township before you haul.
