Junk removal in Security-Widefield, where the sheds are older than the owners
Security-Widefield is the big unincorporated area between the city and Fountain, built in the fifties and sixties for the families at Fort Carson and still full of them. Small ranches, deep lots, a detached garage or a metal shed out back that has not been emptied since the Johnson administration.
Security and Widefield grew up together as post-war housing for the post, and that shows in what we haul. The houses are modest ranches on decent lots, many of them rentals now, and nearly every one has an outbuilding: a detached garage with the previous three owners' tools in it, a metal shed sagging under its own roof, a carport full of things that were going to be fixed. When a house sells or a tenant leaves, that is the load, and it is often heavier than it looks because sixties sheds were used for storing things like paint, old motors and concrete block.
The other steady call here is the estate: a parent who bought in 1965 and never left. Those are worked room by room with the family, with usable furniture routed to donation where possible and the keep pile left in the house until the family is ready.
Short carries, same-day work
The lots are flat and the driveways are short, which makes Security-Widefield one of the easiest places we work and one of the fastest. A couch and a fridge is a same-day job; a whole garage is a half day. Shed demolition is common here too, usually the metal kind, and the slab stays unless you want it gone.

Questions from Security-Widefield
Are the old sheds a problem?
Only in weight. Old sheds hold heavy things. The crew looks, prices honestly by what's in it, and the metal goes to recycling.
We found old paint and chemicals in the garage. Can you take them?
No. They need a hazardous-waste route. The crew sets them aside and tells you where. Everything else goes.
Can you do a rental between tenants on short notice?
Usually the same day or the next. Most are a half truck.
My parent's house is full. Where do we start?
With a walk-through. We go room by room, mark keep and go, and give one price for the whole house. Nothing leaves that wasn't marked.
Do you take the old carport metal?
Yes, as scrap. Taking the carport down is a demolition quote; the look is free.
