Around here, it’s always safety first. From the first moments on any project, safety is the number one priority for our clients, their property, and our team members.

Safety first always applies to the safety of our clients and their property. Our team members are trained in safety measures regarding lifting and transporting items to help our client avoid physical injury from doing it themselves. That’s why they call us here at McCoy’s Junk Removal! And although you may want to help us, there’s no need. It’s our job to clear away the junk you no longer want or need. One of the reasons to call McCoy’s Junk Removal to help haul away a heavy load is to prevent injury to yourself, your family or friends. Since we’re trained in the proper procedures, let us do the heavy work for you.

We are required to lift heavy objects, a task that could be hazardous to our physical safety if not done correctly. That’s where training in proper lifting techniques comes into play. We are prepared for heavy loads, we think about how best to lift and maneuver objects like pianos, sofas and refrigerators. We look ahead to the pathway to clear any obstacles, prepare for steps up or down, and know about proper body position. Lifting, carrying, and even setting down a heavy load can tax the body in different ways. Working smart is the best way to avoid physical injury from heavy loads.

Biohazards are any biological material that can cause a risk to human or animal health. Some of the biohazards we could potentially come into contact with at McCoy’s Junk Removal include blood and bodily fluids, human or animal waste, mold and fungus spores, and industrial chemicals. Biohazards can also include viruses, toxins or things like E.coli, HIV and tuberculosis. If we encounter a biohazard that we are not equipped to deal with, we may refuse the job. The safety of our workers is too important to us to expose them. We may need to recommend another professional to handle the job of cleaning or clearing a home or items that present a biohazard.
