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 garage 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.

How to Prepare for Your Garage Cleanout
To ensure a smooth and efficient garage cleanout, here are some tips on how to prepare:
- Sort Your Items: Before our team arrives, try to sort your items into three categories: keep, donate, and discard. This will help speed up the process and ensure that nothing important is accidentally removed.
- Clear a Path: Make sure there is a clear path from the garage to the driveway or street for our team to access and remove your junk.
- 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.
How to Keep Your Garage Organized
After your garage cleanout, it's important to keep your garage organized to prevent clutter from building up again. Here are some tips to help you maintain organization:
- Install Shelving: Installing shelves or cabinets can help you keep your items organized and off the floor.
- Use Storage Bins: Use clear storage bins to store your items. This will help you see what's inside and make it easier to find things when you need them.
- Label Everything: Label your storage bins and shelves to make it easier to find and put away items.
- Regularly Declutter: Make it a habit to regularly go through your items and get rid of anything you no longer need.
