Appliance Removal in French Camp
French Camp is named for the Hudson's Bay Company trappers who camped here from about 1832 to 1845 — the end of their trail is state landmark No. 668. Today it is home to San Joaquin General Hospital and the county jail, and about 450 homes, mostly single-family.
San Joaquin General Hospital is at 500 W. Hospital Road, French Camp.
The San Joaquin County Sheriff's custody facility is at 7000 Michael Canlis Blvd., French Camp.
About 455 homes, mostly single-family. 25% built in the 2000s and 23% in the 1950s. Very wide margin on the median.
Whatever French Camp throws at us — refrigerators and freezers, washers and dryers, ranges, ovens and cooktops and dishwashers — the job runs the same way. You send a photo or a short description, we send back a fixed number, and if you say yes we show up in a tight window and do the lifting. Refrigerant recovered by a certified handler — not dumped in a field.
What we will not do is quote you a "starting at" price on the phone and then produce a real number once a two-man crew is standing in your driveway and it is awkward to say no. That is the industry's oldest move and it is the main reason people dread calling a junk hauler at all.
What we take

- Washers and dryers

What we can't

Nobody legitimate takes household hazardous waste on a junk run — it has to go through a county HHW event. We separate it out, stack it where you can find it, and tell you the nearest drop-off date instead of quietly leaving it in a corner.

Where your French Camp junk actually goes
Most of what leaves a French Camp job goes to Lovelace MRF & Transfer Station in Manteca, at a posted gate rate of $78.78 per ton as of 2026-01-01. Lovelace MRF & Transfer Station is open seven days a week, which is why we can run French Camp jobs on a Sunday when almost nobody else in this market will.
Hauling it yourself instead? Here are Lovelace MRF & Transfer Station hours and fees, plus what it turns away.
Before that, usable furniture and appliances go to donation, and metal, cardboard, e-waste and green waste get separated out. We keep the weight tickets on every load and we will hand them to you if you want to see them — that is not something most haulers offer and it is the fastest way to tell whether someone is actually disposing legally or dumping on a county road.
Why this matters to your price: gate rates across our service area range from $40.64 a ton at Foothill Sanitary Landfill to $107.76 at the most expensive transfer station in Lodi. Routing loads to the right gate is most of the difference between a hauler who can hold a price and one who surprises you at the end.

French Camp questions
How fast can you get to French Camp?
French Camp is about 28 minutes from our Lodi base, so it is inside our normal daily route rather than an out-of-area trip. That is the practical reason we can hold same-day and next-day slots here when a Sacramento-based company quoting the same job is adding an hour of windshield time each way.
Where does the debris from a French Camp job go?
Lovelace MRF & Transfer Station in Manteca, currently $78.78 per ton as of 2026-01-01. It is open seven days, which is why Sunday service is available in this area. Donation-quality items go to a receiving charity first, and metal, cardboard, e-waste and green waste are separated out. We keep the weight ticket on every load.
Do you serve unincorporated French Camp?
French Camp is unincorporated San Joaquin County, and yes — rural parcels, outbuildings, barns and deep lots are a large part of what we do out here. Long driveways and no curb access are not a problem; we bring the trailer to the pile.
Why is there a charge for refrigerators?
Refrigerant has to be recovered by a certified technician before the unit can be scrapped — that is federal law, not a made-up fee. $90 covers it. Anyone quoting you $0 on a fridge is either not recovering the refrigerant or making it up elsewhere.
Can you disconnect it?
Yes — water lines, dryer vents, and gas at the existing shutoff valve. We do not cut or cap gas lines; that is a plumber's job and we will say so.
Do you buy working appliances?
No, but if it works we will try to place it with a donation partner instead of scrapping it, which sometimes reduces your price.
What about a water heater?
$125, and we will shut off the water and gas at the valves. If it needs to be drained first, tell us and we will bring time for it.
