About Independence

Independence has newer, larger homes than most inner-ring suburbs, with many built in the 1970s-1990s. Larger homes mean more storage space -- and more accumulated items when it's time to move or downsize.

The median home age in Independence is approximately 40 years, which directly influences the types of junk removal jobs we handle here. Older homes tend to have more accumulated items in basements, attics, and garages -- while newer homes generate more construction debris and moving-related junk.
