Hoarding Cleanup in Placerville
Placerville began as a mining camp on Hangtown Creek in 1848 and incorporated in 1854, where Highway 50 now crosses Highway 49. About 32% of its homes were built before 1960, and 14% in 1939 or earlier.
U.S. Route 50 crosses State Route 49 in Placerville, which incorporated in 1854.
The Methodist Episcopal Church at 1031 Thompson Way, built in 1851, is the oldest church building in El Dorado County.
About 5,074 homes. 16% built in the 1970s, 14% in 1939 or earlier, 13% in the 2000s, 13% in the 1980s; about 32% before 1960.
Whatever Placerville throws at us — full contents of a heavily accumulated property, spoiled food and rotted material, damaged furniture and flooring and animal waste and affected material (bid separately) — 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. Discreet, unmarked arrival available. We go at the pace the family can handle.
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
- Full contents of a heavily accumulated property
- Spoiled food and rotted material
- Damaged furniture and flooring
- Animal waste and affected material (bid separately)
- Documents — sorted and set aside, not dumped
What we can't
- Sharps and medical waste without a licensed partner — we bring one in
- Structural repair — we clear, we do not rebuild
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.
Hoarding Cleanup pricing in Placerville
$2,200 – $12,000
Fixed written price after a discreet walkthrough. Placerville properties sit toward the lower of that range on average, but square footage and how full the property is matter far more than which city it is in.
Placerville is in our Foothill Zone 4 travel zone, so the fixed bid includes the $385 travel fee as its own line. Nothing is added after the walkthrough number.
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.
Will the neighbors know?
Not from us. We can arrive in an unmarked vehicle, work with the garage door down, and stage loads out of sight. Say the word when you book.
My parent is still living there and does not want this.
Then we go at their pace, not ours. We have done multi-visit cleanouts where the first day is one room. Forcing it does not work and it damages the relationship. Tell us the situation honestly and we will build the plan around it.
There is a code enforcement deadline.
Tell us the date and the case number. We have worked against county abatement deadlines before and we will give you a completion package with dated photos that satisfies most inspectors.
How much does hoarding cleanup cost?
$2,200 to $12,000 depending on the property and the severity. It is priced from a walkthrough, fixed in writing, and we would rather overscope it and come in under than the reverse.
