Moving Out? Junk Removal Checklist for Anaheim

Moving is expensive, and every item you move adds to the cost. Anaheim residents can save hundreds by removing junk before moving day.

The Math: Why Decluttering Before Moving Saves Money

Moving companies charge by weight and volume. Removing 25% of your belongings before a move can significantly reduce your moving costs.

Plus, junk removal is typically cheaper than moving those same items to a new location and disposing of them later.

Room-by-Room Declutter Checklist

Living Room - Old magazines and books you won't reread - Worn-out furniture (that couch you've been meaning to replace) - Outdated electronics (old DVD players, obsolete cables) - Decor you won't use in the new space

Kitchen - Duplicate utensils, pots, and pans - Chipped dishes and mismatched sets - Expired pantry items - Appliances you never use

Bedrooms - Clothes you haven't worn in a year - Old mattresses (get a new one for the new place) - Broken furniture - Old bedding and pillows

Garage / Storage - Broken tools and equipment - Dried-out paint and chemicals - Sports equipment nobody uses - Holiday items you don't display anymore

Bathroom - Expired medications and toiletries - Old towels and linens - Broken or unused items

Timing Your Junk Removal
