Furniture Removal in Herald
Herald is home to Rancho Seco, the SMUD nuclear plant that voters shut down in June 1989; its federal license was terminated in 2018. Around it is open county land off Highway 104 and Twin Cities Road, with fewer than 500 homes, most built in the 1970s and 1990s.
Arcohe Elementary, of the Arcohe Union Elementary district, is at 11755 Ivie Road, Herald.
Herald was developed in 1910 by the Central California Traction Company; the name joins the first names of Herbert Fleishhacker and Alden Anderson.
About 482 homes. 32% built in the 1970s, 26% in the 1990s. Wide margin on the median.
Whatever Herald throws at us — couches, loveseats and sectionals, mattresses and box springs, any size, dressers, armoires and wardrobes and dining tables and chairs — 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. We carry it down the stairs. You do not.
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.
What we take
- Couches, loveseats and sectionals
- Mattresses and box springs, any size
- Dressers, armoires and wardrobes
- Dining tables and chairs
- Recliners and sleeper sofas
- Desks and office furniture
- Pianos and organs (priced separately)
- Patio furniture
What we can't
- Furniture with active bed bug infestation — tell us up front, we can still take it but it has to be wrapped and priced differently
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 Herald junk actually goes
Most of what leaves a Herald 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 Herald 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.

Herald questions
How fast can you get to Herald?
Herald is about 25 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 Herald 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.
Do you serve unincorporated Herald?
Herald is unincorporated Sacramento 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.
How much to remove a couch?
$200 for a single couch at the curb or inside on the ground floor. Sectionals and anything coming down stairs are quoted from a photo before we book.
Do you take mattresses?
Yes, $45 each. California charges a recycling fee at purchase, but haulers still pay to dispose, and that is what the $45 covers.
Can you move furniture instead of removing it?
In-home moves, yes — $95 an hour with a two-man crew, one hour minimum. We are not a moving company for a whole house, but shifting a heavy piece between rooms is easy.
Will you donate it?
If it is clean and structurally sound, yes. We would rather donate than pay disposal on it.
