What pickup day looks like in the 28052 ZIP code
With about 75 percent of homes in 28052 being single-family detached, most pickups start at a driveway or a ground-level door. That means the crew can often move faster from truck to pile, which keeps the job simple for you.
About 8 percent of homes here are in buildings of five units or more, so some jobs start at an elevator or a stairwell instead. The crew is used to carrying items down multiple flights, and they protect walls and railings on the way out.
Nothing outdoors has to wait for better weather, so the only constraint is your own schedule. With about 71 days of measurable rain a year, a dry day is not always guaranteed, but the crew works in light rain and still leaves the space tidy.
