Getting Rid of Tenants Junk/Trash

Inherited tenant ended up moving out and leaving behind a pretty decent amount of junk/ furniture.

Any recommendations for junk removal services in Chicago?

Thank you

@Benjamin J Paoletti this happens all the time in the apartment world, and it is so frustrating as this costs real money and time. I personally use a junk company that is pretty reasonable whenever this happens. They show up with 2 guys and a large dump truck and they take it all out. They get the unit cleaned out, even using shovels, etc. 

I would not recommend wasting your time with FB marketplace or trying to call salvation army. This stuff has such low value that it is not worth your time trying to source a way to get rid of it.
