What a cleanout looks like in the 61283 area
Housing in this ZIP was mostly built around 1957, and about 80 percent of homes predate 1980. Older houses often have full basements and attics that collect furniture and boxes over the years. That is why estate and basement cleanouts are common calls here.
With about 559 housing units spread over 83.6 square miles, the density here is about 16 people per square mile. That means long driveways and outbuildings are part of many jobs. Crews are used to carrying items a good distance to the truck.
Only about 15 percent of occupied homes are rented, so most pickups involve a homeowner dealing with their own accumulated property. Precipitation runs about 40 inches a year with about 30 inches of snow. Winter here reorders the queue rather than emptying it.
How Tampico compares with other ZIPs
About 94 percent of homes in 61283 are single-family detached, compared with about 2 percent in Washington, DC 20024 and about 54 percent in Minneapolis, MN 55428.
The housing age also stands out: about 80 percent of homes here were built before 1980, close to the 80 percent in Minneapolis 55428 but far above the 34 percent in North Charleston, SC 29418.
Rental rates differ sharply too, with about 15 percent of occupied homes rented here versus about 68 percent in Washington 20024 and about 44 percent in Minneapolis 55428.
What that means for booking a pickup window here is that the crew is prepared for detached homes with yards and full basements. The work is more likely to involve carrying items from a house to a truck than navigating an elevator or a loading dock. The crew plans for that from the start.
Where your junk goes after it leaves Tampico
Junk Rhinos sorts every load. Usable furniture and goods are donated to local charities, while metal, electronics, and green waste are routed for recycling. The goal is to keep as much out of the landfill as the load allows.
