Common Post-Holiday Junk People Forget About

Once the lights and ornaments are packed away, a surprising amount of unwanted junk is left behind.

Some of the most common items people remove in early January include:

• Old or broken furniture replaced during the holidays
• Cardboard boxes and packaging from gifts
• Broken decorations and worn-out lights
• Old TVs, electronics, and appliances
• Christmas trees and yard décor
• Garage clutter that built up all year

If it didn’t make sense to deal with in December, January is the time.

Why January Is the Best Time for Junk Removal

Many homeowners wait until spring to declutter, but January offers some real advantages.

1. Faster Scheduling

The holiday rush is over, which means more flexible appointment times and quicker turnarounds.

2. Easier Cleanouts

Cooler weather makes garage cleanouts, attic, and outdoor cleanups more comfortable compared to Texas summers.

3. Start the Year Organized

Clearing out clutter early helps you stay organized all year instead of letting junk pile up again.

4. Prepare for Upcoming Projects

Whether you’re planning renovations, moving, or listing your home, removing junk now saves time later.

What You Should Get Rid of First in 2026

If you’re not sure where to start, focus on these high-impact areas:

Garage Cleanouts

Boxes, old furniture, broken tools, and unused equipment add up quickly. Clearing your garage can instantly free up usable space.

Large Items Taking Up Space

Couches, mattresses, refrigerators, and washers are hard to move and shouldn’t sit around all year.

Construction or Remodeling Debris

If you finished a project late last year, leftover construction or remodeling debris can be safely and quickly hauled away.

Electronics and Appliances

Outdated or broken electronics shouldn’t end up on the curb. Professional removal ensures proper disposal.
