Eco-Friendly Disposal

At Maryland Pickers, we believe in doing our part to protect the environment. Our approach to eco-friendly disposal of items is based on a hierarchy of options that prioritize donation and recycling over landfill disposal.

Our Approach
  • Donation: The first step in our disposal process is to identify items that are in good condition and can be used by others. These items are donated to local charities, helping to support our community and reduce waste.
  • Recycling: The next step is to identify items that can be recycled. This includes a wide range of materials such as paper, cardboard, plastic, metal, and electronics. We work with local recycling centers to ensure that these items are processed and recycled in an environmentally friendly manner.
  • Responsible Disposal: Finally, any items that cannot be donated, recycled, or repurposed are disposed of responsibly at a licensed landfill.

We are committed to minimizing the environmental impact of our basement cleanout services. By donating and recycling as many items as possible, we are able to reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills and contribute to a more sustainable future.

Preparing for Your Basement Cleanout

Proper preparation is key to a successful basement cleanout. Here are some tips to help you prepare:

  • Sort Your Items: Before our team arrives, it is helpful if you can sort your items into three categories: keep, donate, and dispose. This will make the cleanout process more efficient and ensure that nothing is accidentally removed that you wanted to keep.
  • Clear a Path: Make sure there is a clear path for our team to access your basement and remove the items. This may involve moving furniture or other obstacles that may be in the way.
  • Notify Us of Any Special Requirements: If there are any special requirements for the cleanout, such as a specific time that we need to arrive or any items that require special handling, please let us know in advance so we can accommodate your needs.
