The reality is most South Carolina residents have tons of junk lying around that they don't need. Unfortunately, most of us don't have the time or patience to get rid of these items in an efficient, eco-friendly way. That's where Labor Bros junk removal swoops in to save the day.

What Are the Most Common Junk Removal Items?
Here at Labor Bros, we've hauled away an incredible amount of junk since we opened our doors. Whether it's the hundreds of unsightly, heavy mattresses or old, unusable TVs, our crew has hauled some serious junk over the years. For each truckload of junk that we remove from a home or business, we work hard to donate applicable items and recycle others, to give back to the community and keep it clean.
When it comes to junk removal in Wilmette, IL, here are some of the most common items we remove:
Mattresses
Even the best mattresses will need to be replaced with enough time. Over the years, your mattress will begin to break down, causing you more pain than pleasure when your head hits the pillow. When your quality of sleep is affected, so too is your day-to-day life and wellbeing. To make matters worse, your old mattress is a haven for dead skin cells, hair, and even bugs. When it gets to this point, it's time to get rid of your mattress. Unfortunately, that can be easier said than done, especially if you're working 40 hours a week and must balance a family too. Luckily, the Labor Bros can remove your old mattress quicker than it takes you to snooze on a Sunday afternoon.
Labor Bros Pro Tip: Mattress parts like steel springs, wooden frames, and coils can often be donated or recycled. Our team is happy to handle this part of the junk removal process, so you don't have to!
Refrigerators
If you plan on upgrading your kitchen, chances are you will need to update your old fridge too. Refrigerators are notorious for being big, clunky, hazardous appliances to remove. Most folks don't want to deal with the lengthy process of removing the appliance and disposing of it safely. That's where the Labor Bros come in! Whether you have a regular-sized fridge at your home or several large chest freezers at your business, the Labor Bros are here to haul them away today.
Labor Bros Pro Tip: Remember, many refrigerators and freezers have harmful chemicals that need to be disposed of properly. The Labor Bros always take these hazards into account, so you don't risk your health. Once these materials have been dealt with, our junk removal experts will either donate your unwanted fridge or haul it to the appropriate recycling facility.
Flat Screen TVs
With new technology and features debuting every other day, it's no surprise that we haul away old TVs every day. Whether you're moving to a new home or just want a new TV, we can remove your old flat screen quickly and safely. Our customers choose the Labor Bros for their TV removal not just because we're fast and effective, but because many modern TVs contain hazardous materials. Once our team removes your old TV from your home or business, we'll make sure your TV is disposed of in an eco-friendly manner.

Here are just a few of the most common general labor jobs we complete for homeowners in South Carolina:

When you want it done right, it's time to call the Labor Bros. Our team will not only remove the junk from your garage - we'll clean your garage afterward, so it looks and feels like it was brand new.
Yard Debris Cleanup:
Cleaning up your yard debris can be a real pain in the butt. You need the right clothes to protect your legs and arms, gloves for your hands, possibly a back brace, and a lot of patience. After you're done, you're bound to need a shower and a long break. With all that in mind, it's no wonder why so many South Carolina residents call the Labor Bros for yard debris removal! Our general labor techs have cleaned up dozens if not hundreds of yards, and they can help you too.

CHICAGO — Six of the top 10 best middle schools in Illinois are part of Chicago Public Schools, according to a new analysis by U.S. News & World Report.
The 2025 best middle schools rankings includes more than 2,500 in Illinois and scores them based on state assessment scores and publicly available data from the U.S. Department of Education.
Scores were analyzed in the context of socioeconomic demographics, and student-teacher ratios were used as a tiebreaker when schools scored equally.
LaMont Jones, U.S. News' managing editor for education, said research shows that students' academic performance in early grades can be major indication of their success at the secondary and postsecondary levels.
"The 2025 Best Elementary and Middle Schools rankings offer parents a way to evaluate how schools are providing a high-quality education and preparing students for future success," Jones said in a release. "The data empowers families and communities to advocate for their children's education."

Park district officials' proposed tax increase to fund parks and recreation center upgrades failed after 62 percent voted no.

|Updated Wed, Nov 6, 2024 at 11:47 am CT
KENILWORTH, IL — Kenilworth voters rejected a proposed property tax increase aimed at funding parks and recreation improvements, according to unofficial results from the Cook County Clerk's Office.
With 100 percent of precincts reporting, 762 voters opposed the measure, while 462 voters supported it, a margin of 62 percent to 38 percent.
The referendum, if passed, would have raised an additional $492,000 per year for the park district to fund projects including a new community recreation center and upgrades to Townley Field.
The Kenilworth Park District board asked voters to approve a 0.132 percent increase in its limiting rate, raising it from 0.189 percent to 0.321 percent—an increase of more than 69 percent.
If approved, the tax hike would cost homeowners about $40 per $100,000 of their property’s market value — approximately $800 annually for a $2 million home.

According to the referendum text, funds raised would be used “for the purpose of building, equipping and operating a new community recreation center, acquiring and improving land for trail use, maintaining, improving and protecting park facilities, parks and athletic fields and for other park purposes.”
Park district officials had highlighted plans for a new recreation center to replace the aging Village House, as well as upgrades to Townley Field.
The proposed improvements included creating a safe, dedicated route for the Green Bay Bike Trail adjacent to Townley Field, addressing longstanding safety concerns around bicyclists navigating nearby streets and school grounds.
In a letter to residents ahead of the vote, Park District President John Hart outlined efforts with village, school and park officials to secure land from Union Pacific Railroad for the new trail alignment.
With the referendum’s failure, plans for the trail realignment and other improvements are now uncertain.
“We’re working on a potential easement that would allow us to build this portion of the trail as envisioned,” Hart wrote, adding that plans for Townley Field improvements will “hold this land with hopes that we can go forward with a realigned Green Bay Trail in the future.”
District officials had noted its efficient use of funds, pointing out that it receives just 2.5 percent of local tax revenue—less than neighboring districts, which average around 4 percent.
“We have achieved a lot for our community while continuing to honor our community’s commitment to fiscal responsibility,” park district officials said in a brochure about the referendum. “But while we are doing everything we can to serve our community members, we continue to fall short and our residents deserve better.”
Ahead of the vote, park district staff emphasized that community surveys have showed strong support for enhanced facilities, including a new recreation center and improved bike trail safety.
More than 70 percent of respondents favored expanded funding, with many expressing specific interest in the bike trail realignment and updated indoor facilities for year-round programs.
Proposed upgrades to Townley Field would include modern ADA-compliant restroom facilities, a commercial irrigation system and energy-efficient LED lighting. A new recreation center would also provide a year-round facility for basketball, pickleball, sports clinics, community events and group rentals.
District officials have suggested improvements funded by the higher taxes would not only enhance recreational opportunities for local families but could also boost property values in the village by making the area more attractive to potential residents.
