LACEY, WA – November 4, 2026 – Clean Slate Hauling And Junk Removal Lacey, a junk removal service for Lacey and the surrounding Thurston County area, is sharing U.S. Census Bureau building permit data for the city, along with guidance for homeowners, landlords and contractors planning a cleanout or remodel.

Every number below is from the Census Bureau’s Building Permits Survey, which compiles the new homes and apartments that local permit offices approve each year. This release compares Lacey’s 2024 and 2025 annual entries.

New Housing Units Authorized in Lacey

Lacey’s permit office approved 630 new housing units in 2025, the survey shows, and most of them were in larger buildings: 602 units in 16 buildings with five or more units, along with 26 single-family homes and 2 units in a duplex.

In 2024, the city authorized 178 new housing units, including 137 units in buildings with five or more units and 37 single-family homes. The 2025 total was more than three times the 2024 figure.

Permit counts measure authorized new construction. They do not count remodels, move-outs or cleanouts in existing homes.

How Estimates and Pricing Work

Clean Slate gives junk removal quotes based on the type and volume of items being removed, and the price is given before any work begins. The company can do a quick on-site review when a job is hard to describe over the phone. For larger jobs, such as a full cleanout of a three-bedroom house, it says pricing depends on volume, access and the kinds of items involved rather than square footage.

Soft Strip, Light Demolition and Debris

People planning a remodel often ask about demolition. Clean Slate explains that a soft strip removes non-structural items such as cabinets, fixtures, flooring and interior materials, while total demolition removes the whole structure. The company’s work centers on soft strip and light demolition, such as taking down sheds, decks and small interior structures, followed by hauling. It does not do full building teardowns. Construction debris removal covers wood, drywall, flooring and other materials left after remodeling or repairs.

The company describes its Thurston County work as full-service junk removal.
