What a pickup in Elkhart 50073 looks like
With about 10 percent of occupied homes rented and about 90 percent owner-occupied, most pickups here start at a house the owner has lived in for a while. With about 38 percent of homes built before 1980, older basements and attics often hold decades of accumulated items.
About 19 percent of homes here were built in 2010 or later, which means newer construction brings its own debris from remodels and additions. About 8 percent of homes are mobile or manufactured homes, so we are used to working in tighter layouts and around outbuildings.
The crew arrives in branded uniforms and is fully insured. Winter slows a yard clear-out more than it slows an indoor cleanout, so basements and garages are the cold-month jobs.
