Whatever Placerville throws at us — drywall, lumber and framing scrap, cabinets, countertops and fixtures, flooring, tile, carpet and padding and roofing and siding — 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. Scheduled service or on-call. Weight tickets on every load.
You will not get a phone estimate that grows once a truck is sitting in your driveway. That is the standard move in this industry, and it is exactly why most people put off calling anyone until the pile gets unbearable.

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.
Construction & Demolition Debris Removal prices in Placerville
Most junk removal companies in this market will not put a price on their website. We will. You get the exact number in writing before anyone touches anything, and it does not move unless the pile does.
| Load size | About | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum load | Up to 1/8 of the trailer: a couch and a chair, a few boxes, or a small curbside pile. One fee item on its own (a mattress, an appliance) is also the minimum. | $200 |

| Three-quarter load | A packed two-car garage or a large room plus yard debris. | $595 |

Placerville travel fee: $385 per job. Placerville is about 84 minutes from our Lodi yard, past our standard area, so full-service jobs here add one flat $385 travel fee to the prices above. It covers the extra drive time and fuel for a two-person crew coming from Lodi. It is never discounted and never added after the fact. Every travel zone and fee.
Senior and veteran pricing is 10% off and applied automatically — you should not have to ask for it twice.
Where your Placerville junk actually goes
Most of what leaves a Placerville job goes to Kiefer Landfill in Sloughhouse, at a posted gate rate of $61.35 per ton as of 2026-01-01. Kiefer Landfill is open seven days a week, which is why we can run Placerville jobs on a Sunday when almost nobody else in this market will.
Hauling it yourself instead? The Kiefer Landfill rules for self-haulers cover hours, payment and every posted fee.
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 $109.25 at Western Placer Waste Management Authority. 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.

Placerville questions
Is there a travel fee for Placerville?
Yes, and it is a flat $385. Placerville is about 84 minutes from our Lodi yard, which puts it in Foothill Zone 4. The fee is added once per job on top of the published load price, it is on the written quote before you say yes, and it is not discounted or marked up. Dump trailer rental is not offered this far out.
Where does the debris from a Placerville job go?
Kiefer Landfill in Sloughhouse, currently $61.35 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.
Can you park a trailer on my jobsite for the whole build?
Yes, and that is the cheapest way to do it on a long remodel. $575 a week plus disposal, with swaps at $195 plus the load.
Do you handle heavy material like concrete and tile?
Yes, on a weight tier rather than a volume price — $95 per ton over the first ton. Concrete is dense enough that a half-full trailer is a full legal load, so it has to be priced that way.
Can you clean up before an inspection?
That is most of what this service is. Give us the inspection date and we will be there the day before.
Do you provide weight tickets for diversion reporting?
Yes. If your permit requires a construction waste management plan with diversion percentages, tell us at the start and we will route loads to a facility that reports it and give you the documentation.
