They showed up on time, quickly understood the 6 various house projects I needed done, picked up the right equipment for the tasks, split up the tasks and got to work. In just 3 hours they completed all 6 projects and their work was professional and clean. They were very polite and flexible as that same day I had sump pump issues and had various plumbers coming in and out to give estimates and they were able to work around the interruptions with no issues. Will definitely reach out to them again if needed."

As a full-service landscape company, ROJAS LANDSCAPING & LAWN MAINTENANCE, INC. provides a one-stop shop for all areas of landscaping, including mowing and edging, planting trees and flowers, trimming trees, placement of sod and mulch, compost, brick and stone patios, and cleanups. We recognize that all of our clients have different needs and we work hard to ensure that every one of our clients in entirely satisfied with our work. ROJAS LANDSCAPING AND LAWN MAINTENANCE INC. employs only the most well versed, well rounded, and expressive landscape architects. You will absolutely love the work we do for you, whether it's redoing your front yard, new gazebo, industrial complex, or shopping center.

"I have used other tree services, but it is rare for them to willingly split & stack the downed trees (or during minor limb clean-up), and/or immediately provide stump grinding. Lino called within 30 minutes of submitting the request for service on Angie's list, and was available to stop by & provide an estimate within hours. The estimate was reasonable, accepted & work was started exactly as promised. The weather did not fully cooperate for the entire day, so there was a need for his team to come back to complete the work. Again, they arrived timely & on the date promised. There was some minor miscommunication on the placement of the wood pile, which was quickly remedied without a fuss. All areas (backyard to roadway) were immaculately cleaned each day. I was pleased with the exceptional work and requested an estimate for additional work next spring, if required. Neighbor's noted their work & were quickly provided an acceptable estimate, for which work immediately commenced. (Stump grinding was included in neighbor's work, but not mine as the stumps were too close to the easement & not required this time.) Stump grinding areas were cleared & well prepped. Courteous & professional team of diligent workers, for which I would definitely recommend & utilize again."

For an immediate response to all of your hardscaping and landscaping needs... Call Roberto @ (847) 544-1747

"Installation was efficient and careful, as well as a good value. Salinas Landscaping uses high quality fixtures. We chose 2 types in antique brass, a flood to light trees and a shaded path light. We wanted the path-lighting posts buried deeper than typical for stability and subtlety, which Roberto and his crew accommodated. They also managed to deinstall some old lighting without breaking the circuit. We appreciated getting the work done in time for Thanksgiving, as well as Roberto’s willingness to come back in March and replace a flood with LED lights that had gone dim. Salinas Landscaping backs its work! They even took an extra few minutes to adjust the light timer for daylight saving time."

Waste, junk, building materials and debris removals and haulings FAQs

Yes, if you have items that are still usable, there are free junk haul-away services available near you. Organizations like the Salvation Army, Goodwill, and Habitat for Humanity often offer free pickup for gently used furniture, appliances, and other household items. These charities accept donations and may resell or donate them to those in need. However, if your items are unusable or broken, you'll need to hire a professional junk removal service, which will charge a fee. Check with local charities or municipal programs to explore all your options.

You can get rid of old appliances for free by donating them if they are in working condition. Organizations like Habitat for Humanity, Goodwill, and local religious groups accept appliance donations and often provide free pickup services. Some utility companies offer recycling programs or rebates for old appliances when you purchase a new, energy-efficient model. Additionally, scrap metal recyclers might accept appliances and may even pay you for them. Contact local charities, utilities, or recycling centers to find the best option for your situation.

The average cost of trash removal per month ranges from $25 to $100, depending on your location and the services provided. Residential garbage and recycling collection fees may be included in your utility bills or property taxes, or charged separately by private companies. Factors influencing the cost include the size of your waste bins, frequency of pickups, and any additional services like yard waste or bulk item collection. Urban areas may have higher rates due to increased disposal fees and operational costs.

The smallest dumpsters available hold 2 cubic yards, measure 6 feet by 8 feet at 3 feet deep, and accommodate 400 pounds. They cost between $75 and $200 per week for rental. In addition, dumpster bag options are available for even smaller projects, costing between $100 and $180 per week. These solutions offer a precise fit for light cleanup jobs, ensuring an effective and economical approach to waste removal. You benefit from clearly defined dimensions that ensure the selected option meets your project’s scale without unnecessary expense.

Junk removal companies dispose of waste in approved landfills as part of their standard service process. They follow strict waste management protocols that ensure all material is handled in compliance with environmental regulations. Professionals send unusable or unsalvageable materials directly to a designated landfill. They also separate items that qualify for donation or recycling, ensuring that only the appropriate waste is destined for landfill disposal. This methodical approach guarantees efficient waste management while upholding safety and environmental standards.

Tipping junk removal professionals is a considerate gesture that acknowledges their hard work in handling challenging loads. When exceptional care and efficiency are demonstrated, you should tip a flat amount of $20 to $50 or 15% to 20% of the total service cost. A tip reinforces the quality of service delivered and rewards the crew for managing heavy, bulky, or hazardous materials safely. This extra token of appreciation supports positive service standards and helps ensure that experienced professionals are recognized for their skilled labor.
