How Conditions Vary Across Albany County
Albany County spreads over 522.9 square miles, and the housing stock shifts noticeably from the urban core to the outer towns. The largest town, Albany, holds much of the county's multi-unit buildings: about 21 percent of homes here sit in buildings of five units or more.
Those properties often mean narrow stairwells and shared hallways that the crew plans around.
The suburban ring around the city leans toward single-family houses, many from the pre-1980 era. With about 43 percent of occupied homes rented, tenants and landlords both call for removals when leases turn over or units need clearing. The crew handles whatever layout each address presents.
Newer construction is limited. About 741 new homes were authorized here in 2024, and only about 7 percent of the county's homes were built in 2010 or later. Older homes tend to accumulate more over time, which is why appliance and hoarding cleanouts lead the service list for this area.

Where Your Junk Goes After It Leaves Albany County
