That's awesome to hear!

I had to hire a junk hauler after I had to kick the guy living in my basement out because he decided he didn't need to pay for 6 months (It was a full basement apartment with own bathroom/master bedroom/kitchen and I charged $600 flat) , and I realized that instead of taking ANY trash out for the last year, he simply stuffed all the trash into one of the rooms and it looked like a landfill. Including bags of used cat litter. He also broke basically every appliance including the washer and dryer and never told me (I was able to fix those pretty easily luckily), and left a broken down truck in the driveway. He of course also left a bunch of like really gross/broken furniture.

Then blocked me and my gf on all phones/social media.... oops this is accidentally a rant of how me trying to help a guy with a negative credit score backfired terribly. I guess sometimes credit score is accurate and not BS.

Anyway, I was gonna have a mental break down realizing that my basement was a literal landfill, with like 20 weeks worth of garbage I would need to some how get out of my house and a bunch of junk that wouldn't fit in a car. But then $400 dollars later the brave junk haulers made my problems go away (they had to call a second truck). They worked so fast, were super nice and open about price/time and what items they were going to try to sell. It's an incredibly helpful business and I'm glad he found success by working for just normal people in a rough spot. I do in fact hope I never have to hire any of them again though.

Also, yes, the house had lots of bugs. Whenever I asked him if he had any idea where they were coming from or if he had any issues he assured me that, no, he didn't. Luckily once all the trash was out of the basement, tons of normal traps, bug bombs, and a few weeks of only having packaged food made all the bugs go away. If I had to have it fumigated I probably would have had another break down.
