The short answer

Gym Junksters hauls junk in Margate the same day most of the week: single pieces, packed garages and 55+ villa cleanouts. Republic caps bulk and yard waste together at three cubic yards, about three washing machines side by side, and refuses electronics, tires and the old mower. Free quote on site: (954) 774-0277.

Why we are in Margate most weeks

Margate borders Coconut Creek, so it is a seven-minute drive and same-day is routine. Two kinds of call come in. One is the three-cubic-yard problem: a sofa, a mattress set and a dresser at the curb is already over the weekly limit, and Republic takes part of it or none of it. The other is a 55+ villa cleanout.

The houses here, and what they do to a job

One of the oldest inner-ring suburbs in north Broward. Paradise Gardens is over 1,000 single-story 55+ homes, Oriole Gardens is 55+ condo complexes, and Holiday Springs Village is six villages around the former Carolina Club golf course. That means terrazzo floors, carports instead of garages, and fifty-year-old sheds full of lawn equipment.

What Margate bulk pickup will and will not take

The rules, as Margate publishes them

Republic Services collects bulk and yard waste once a week in Margate, on the garbage day opposite your recycling day, and the two must be in separate piles. Bulk and yard waste together are limited to three cubic yards, which the city describes as roughly three standard washing machines side by side and which is among the smallest caps in Broward. Anything too large for the cart or heavier than 150 pounds is handled as bulk. It takes carpet, furniture, mattresses, fixtures such as sinks and toilets, lumber from incidental home repairs, glass in sealed labelled boxes, and white goods once the freon is removed. It refuses electronics, tires, lawnmowers and construction debris. Piles go out no earlier than three days ahead, must be at the curb by 7 a.m., and have to sit at least three feet clear of mailboxes, cars, trees, carts and fences and never under low branches or wires.

Where the free pickup runs out

Three cubic yards disappears fast, and bulk and yard waste share it. Trim the hedges the same week you replace a sofa and you are over. The refusal list reads like an inventory of a 1970s Margate garage: the mower, the tires and the old TV.

Margate junk removal questions

What actually fits in three cubic yards?

About three washing machines side by side, and that has to cover bulk and yard waste together. A sofa plus a box spring is most of a week, so a room of furniture becomes a three-week project at the curb. Furniture and mattress removal takes the lot in one visit.

Margate will not take my lawnmower or my old TV. Will you?

Yes to both. The mower rides with us, and the TV goes to a permitted electronics recycler rather than the landfill. The handling that comes with the TV is on the quote before we load.
