What we do in Ione
Every service below is priced the same way: a fixed written number before anyone drives out.
Ione pricing
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 |
| Quarter load | A bedroom of furniture, or a modest garage corner. | $275 |
| Half load | A one-car garage, a living room, or a small shed. | $425 |
| Three-quarter load | A packed two-car garage or a large room plus yard debris. | $595 |
| Full trailer | A full trailer with side extensions — more than a national-brand 'full truck'. | $775 |

Ione travel fee: $155 per job. Ione is about 42 minutes from our Lodi yard, past our standard area, so full-service jobs here add one flat $155 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 Ione junk actually goes
Most of what leaves a Ione job goes to North County Landfill in Lodi, at a posted gate rate of $60.93 per ton as of 2026-01-01. North County Landfill is open seven days a week, which is why we can run Ione jobs on a Sunday when almost nobody else in this market will.
Hauling it yourself instead? The North County 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.
