Dump Trailer Drop-Off & Pickup in Sacramento
Sacramento housing runs from the pre-1940 bungalows of Curtis Park and East Sacramento — about one home in nine citywide predates 1940 — to North Natomas subdivisions built after the mid-1990s. City junk pickup gives each household two appointments a year, capped at a 4×4×9-foot pile. An estate or a full garage is usually bigger than that.
Appliances and e-waste are not taken in the city junk pickup and need a separate appointment.
After both appointments are used, the city offers a fee-paid special collection or a free dump coupon for self-haul to the Sacramento Recycling and Transfer Station.
About 212,000 homes. 11% built in 1939 or earlier, 7% in the 1940s, 12% in the 1950s; 23% since 2000. Pre-war core (Curtis Park, East Sacramento, Land Park); South Natomas 1950s-80s; North Natomas from the mid-1990s.
Whatever Sacramento 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.
There is no soft number on the phone that turns into a harder one once our crew is standing in front of your house. That trick is old and it is well known, and it is a big part of why people dread this call in the first place.
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.

Where your Sacramento junk actually goes
Most of what leaves a Sacramento job goes to North Area Recovery Station (NARS) in North Highlands, at a posted gate rate of $89.90 per ton as of 2026-01-01. North Area Recovery Station (NARS) is open seven days a week, which is why we can run Sacramento jobs on a Sunday when almost nobody else in this market will.
Hauling it yourself instead? What NARS charges and takes is laid out gate-side, with the effective date on every 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 $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.

Sacramento questions
How fast can you get to Sacramento?
Sacramento is about 45 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 Sacramento job go?
North Area Recovery Station (NARS) in North Highlands, currently $89.90 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 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.
