College Hunks Hauling Junk & Moving Blog

In November 2015, John Smith began his journey with his very own College Hunks franchise. College Hunks Huntsville has grown from that point to over 20 team members, two branded junk trucks, two branded move trucks (with one on the way), and two office locations. Throughout the past year, there has been lots of laughter, of course growing pains, dreams and visions of the future, and the development of an excellent team. It has been such an experience for all of us here, growing together and seeing our HUNKSevolve into leaders is the best part. Our team here has a genuine appreciation for our customers and strives to please each and every one. Every move is different and our team is touched every day by the situations we encounter.

Tiny homes are gaining popularity due to their attractive price points, the desire to live simply, or a want for a new challenge in one’s life. Tiny homes come in all shapes and sizes, some are as small as 100 square feet and can typically go as large as 400 square feet.

Over the years you’ve probably been inundated by hundreds of ads and commercials from moving and junk removal companies. We dug a little bit deeper into one of them to see why, all of a sudden, every homeowner, renter, and business seems to be trusting College HUNKS Hauling Junk & Moving for all their moving and junk removal needs.

Do you have items laying around your home that are non-recyclable? Or maybe you have something that no longer works but you just can’t give it up? Consider transforming that product! We’ve found some unique ways to upcycle old items.

Recycling reduces the amount of trash that ends up in landfills and incinerators. It saves energy, prevents pollution, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and conserves natural resources. We are recycling more items every day, and with evolving technology, more items can be recycled!

Before you pack, make a note of all of your valuables. You’ll want to document the condition that items are in before the move. The easiest way to do this is to take a picture of it. Having photos will make it easier to make a claim if there are any incidents. Also, know your insurance options. If you’re using a moving company, find out what type of insurance is included and if there’s any available for purchase. Homeowners insurance can also provide insurance for moves. Call your insurance company to find out the coverage.

Preparing for a move can be stressful, but College Hunks is here to eliminate this stress! We have compiled a list of questions to ask your potential moving company, and why you should ask them.
