There are no hidden fees, and you pay after the job is done once the load is on the truck.

- You do not: worry about floors or walls, they are protected
What Tower City's housing stock means for your cleanout
Tower City 17980 covers about 34.8 square miles with a population density of about 93 people per square mile, so most homes sit on larger lots with plenty of space around them.
That means driveways and yards are usually accessible, but it also means the walk from the house to the truck can be long. The crew covers that distance without extra charges.
About 71 percent of homes here are single-family detached, and about 21 percent of occupied homes are rented. The median year the housing was built is 1943, and about 3 percent of homes were built in 2010 or later.
Older homes often have narrow stairways, low basements, and attics full of items that have not been touched in years, which is why access is a main focus of every pickup.
The cold months push work indoors, and the outdoor pile usually clears in one visit once it breaks. With about 87 days a year with measurable rain and about 28 inches of snow a year, weather can affect when outdoor junk gets tackled, but the crew works around it.
How 17980 compares with other areas
Compared with Raymond, NH 03077, where about 43 percent of homes were built before 1980, Tower City's 84 percent pre-1980 stock means cleanouts here more often involve decades of accumulated items rather than recent renovations.
In Louisville, KY 40229, about 46 percent of homes predate 1980, a similar pattern of older construction that produces full-house cleanouts. White Cloud, KS 66094, at about 42 percent pre-1980, sees newer homes with less buildup over time.
The housing age shapes what the crew finds on each job. Older properties tend to have more layers in basements and attics, while newer ones have simpler hauls. When you call, mention the age of your home so the crew comes prepared for the access challenges it may bring.
Where your junk goes after it leaves Tower City
Every load is sorted before it leaves the truck. Usable furniture and goods are donated to local charities, and metal, electronics, and green waste are recycled. This keeps a meaningful portion of each haul out of the landfill, which matters when you are clearing out a home that has collected items for decades.
Items that cannot be reused or recycled are disposed of properly. The crew cannot take hazardous materials, including paint, chemicals, solvents, and asbestos, so ask before the visit if you are unsure about an item. They will tell you what they can handle.
