Where your Modesto junk actually goes
Most of what leaves a Modesto job goes to Gilton Resource Recovery in Modesto, at a posted gate rate of $82.50 per ton as of 2026-07-01. Gilton Resource Recovery is open seven days a week, which is why we can run Modesto jobs on a Sunday when almost nobody else in this market will.
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.
