Dump Trailer Drop-Off & Pickup in Elk Grove
Big, newer, and dense. Elk Grove produces high volumes of furniture, appliance and garage-cleanout work, plus rental turnover along the Laguna corridor.
Whatever Elk Grove throws at us — construction and demolition debris, remodel tear-out — cabinets, flooring, drywall, fixtures, roofing and siding and landscape and hardscape debris — 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. Text when you are done. Most pickups happen the same day.
We do not do the "starting at" quote over the phone, followed by a bigger number once the crew is already parked in your driveway and saying no feels awkward. That switch is common enough in this trade that it is the reason a lot of people put off calling anyone.
What we take
- Construction and demolition debris
- Remodel tear-out — cabinets, flooring, drywall, fixtures
- Roofing and siding
- Landscape and hardscape debris
- Cleanout and turnover debris
- General jobsite waste
What we can't
- Hazardous waste and contaminated soil
- Anything requiring a manifest we have not agreed to in advance
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.

What trailer drop-off & pickup costs in Elk Grove
$275 a day · $575 a week
A day is $275 with drop-off, pickup and the first ton of disposal. Extra days are $65; each ton past the first is $125. Elk Grove is 30 minutes out, 5 past our 25-minute free line, so delivery adds $13 at $2.50 a minute. That is the only line on a rental that changes by city.
The cost underneath every Elk Grove job is the gate. Elk Grove loads tip at Kiefer Landfill in Sloughhouse: $61.35 a ton, rate effective 2026-01-01, $45.00 minimum per visit. The lowest posted rate in either county is Foothill Sanitary Landfill in Linden, $40.64 a ton, but the county lists it as closed to the general public, so it is not a gate anyone can plan a load around.
Worked example: one day, one load, $288

Hauling 1 ton yourself from Elk Grove
| Kiefer Landfill, 1 ton | $61.35 $61.35 × 1 t |
| Gate fees, before your truck and fuel | $61.35 |
Kiefer Landfill is open Sundays, hours Mon-Fri 6:30a-4:30p; Sat-Sun 8:30a-4:30p.
The honest read: A one-ton load in your own truck costs less at the gate than our day rate. The day rate is for when the truck is the problem: no hitch, no bed big enough, or a crew that should be working instead of driving to the landfill.

Where your Elk Grove junk actually goes
Most of what leaves a Elk Grove 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 Elk Grove jobs on a Sunday when almost nobody else in this market will.
Hauling it yourself instead? Here are Kiefer Landfill 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.

Elk Grove questions
How fast can you get to Elk Grove?
Elk Grove is about 30 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 Elk Grove 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.
How much does trailer drop-off & pickup cost in Elk Grove?
$275 for a day with the first ton included, $288 for the worked example on this page. The disposal inside that price goes to Kiefer Landfill at $61.35 a ton (effective 2026-01-01). The cost section above has a worked example and what it costs to haul it yourself.
Can you drop it before my crew shows up?
Yes. Give us the address and where to set it, and we will place it before start of work. You do not need to be there.
Do you do swaps on a long job?
Yes — that is the most common contractor arrangement. Full trailer out, empty trailer in, $195 plus disposal on the load.
How quickly do you pick up?
Most same-day if you text before early afternoon. We have to be at the landfill gate before it closes, so late-afternoon requests roll to the next morning.
Do you invoice contractors?
Yes. Net-15 after the first job, net-30 for accounts running multiple properties.
Is there a permit needed?
On private property, driveway or jobsite, no. If it has to sit in the public right-of-way that is a city encroachment question and we will tell you before we drop.
