Scott County is a suburban area where the housing stock leans toward newer, owner-occupied homes. About 72 percent of homes across Scott County are single-family detached, which shapes the kind of loads that come out of them. Estate cleanouts and yard waste removal are the two most frequent jobs here.
The county has about 55,687 housing units spread over 356.1 square miles. With a median build year of 1996, many homes are entering the age when appliances, furniture, and basements need a serious clear-out. That is where a scheduled pickup comes in.

How the housing mix shapes junk loads in Scott County
Across Scott County as a whole, the housing stock is newer than in many neighboring areas. About 24 percent of homes were built before 1980, which means a quarter of the county's households may be dealing with decades of accumulated belongings. That translates into full-house cleanouts and appliance replacements.
At the other end, about 15 percent of homes were built in 2010 or later. Newer construction still produces debris from renovations, landscaping, and moving. About 699 new homes were authorized here in 2024, so new-build cleanup is an ongoing need for the foreseeable future.
The county is predominantly suburban, with about 10 percent of homes in buildings of five units or more. Multi-unit properties often need elevator-free hauling and careful scheduling. About 16 percent of occupied homes are rented, so move-out and landlord cleanouts are common across the county.
