What Makes Columbia 29203 Different for Junk Removal
With about 17 percent of homes in buildings of five units or more, some pickups start at a stairwell or an elevator rather than a driveway. The crew carries items from any floor, so apartment dwellers get the same service as homeowners.
The median year homes here were built is 1974, and about 9 percent were built in 2010 or later. Newer construction brings drywall and lumber debris, while older homes often yield appliances and furniture that have been in place for decades.
About 52 percent of occupied homes are rented, so tenants and landlords both call for cleanouts. With about 48 inches of precipitation a year and about 75 days with measurable rain, the crew works through wet weather. Yard debris and indoor clutter move on the same schedule here, because the weather never forces a pause.
