Who ordered the perfect weather we had for three quarters of September? We usually wake up September 1st with a little frost on our noses but not this September! We had a perfect 2 week stretch! So whoever it was, all of us at TASS truly appreciate it!
Do you know what isn’t perfect? Trying to support and make important decisions for our aging loved ones. It comes with many, many challenges especially when deciding whether to age in place or move to a senior community. Here at TASS, we’re committed to helping you support your loved ones in achieving a better quality of life every step of the way. We have a wealth of knowledge and would LOVE to share it with you!!
Please take a look at our website www.tassgroup.org to see if any of our TASS skilled professionals could have the answers you are looking for!
But without further ado, for our September 2025 newsletter, TASS is proud to share our member/business of the month, Kat Yannalfo from Sir Junk Garbage Removal!!
SIR JUNK is your local, full-service junk removal company based in Ramsey, NJ. We proudly serve Bergen County and the surrounding communities, helping homeowners, businesses, and property managers clear out unwanted items quickly and responsibly. Whether it’s a single bulky appliance or a full house clean-out, our licensed and insured team is ready to get the job done with professionalism and care.
As an independent company, we carry all the same insurance and state registrations as the big national franchises—but without the extra overhead. That means our customers enjoy safe, reliable junk removal at prices about 25% lower than the big guys. When you call 1-844-SIR-JUNK, you won’t be routed to a faraway call center. You’ll speak directly with a decision-maker who can answer your questions and schedule your service.
We specialize in helping seniors who are downsizing, relocating, or choosing to age in place. Our crew understands that these transitions can be overwhelming, and we work with patience, respect, and care to make the process easier for both seniors and their families. From moving and downsizing to storage clean-outs and commercial hauling, we’re here to make decluttering stress-free—while also partnering with local charities and recycling organizations to keep as much as possible out of landfills.
