Foreclosure & REO Trash-Outs in Auburn
Gold was found in the Auburn Ravine in May 1848, and Auburn has been the Placer County seat since 1851. It is one of the older towns we serve: about 32% of its homes were built before 1960, and 14% in 1939 or earlier.
Auburn sits about 800 vertical feet above the confluence of the North Fork and Middle Fork of the American River.
Recology Auburn Placer has served as Auburn's solid waste hauler under a franchise agreement dated August 10, 1999, as amended and extended.
About 6,446 homes. 21% built in the 1980s, 15% in the 1990s, 12% in the 1970s, 12% in the 1950s; about 32% before 1960, including 14% built in 1939 or earlier.
Whatever Auburn throws at us — all interior debris and abandoned personal property, appliances left behind, carpet, padding and damaged flooring and exterior debris, yard waste and overgrowth 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. Photo-documented to servicer standard. Net-30 available for volume accounts.
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
- All interior debris and abandoned personal property
- Appliances left behind
- Carpet, padding and damaged flooring
- Exterior debris, yard waste and overgrowth debris
- Garage and outbuilding contents
- Abandoned vehicles coordinated separately
What we can't
- We do not remove anything before the legal hold period is satisfied — tell us the date and we work to it
- Hazardous waste is bid separately with a licensed handler
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.
Foreclosure & REO Trash-Outs pricing in Auburn
$650 – $2,400
Per property. Line-itemed bid, same business day. Auburn 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.
Auburn 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 Auburn junk actually goes
Most of what leaves a Auburn job goes to Western Placer Waste Management Authority in Lincoln, at a posted gate rate of $109.25 per ton as of 2025-07-01. Western Placer Waste Management Authority is open seven days a week, which is why we can run Auburn 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 $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.

Auburn questions
Is there a travel fee for Auburn?
Yes, and it is a flat $385. Auburn is about 80 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 Auburn job go?
Western Placer Waste Management Authority in Lincoln, currently $109.25 per ton as of 2025-07-01. 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 do volume?
Yes. We price volume accounts on a per-property schedule rather than bidding each one, which is faster for both of us. Net-30 available once we have run a few together.
What does the photo documentation look like?
Timestamped before, during and after sets, room by room and elevation by elevation, delivered as a single PDF the day the job closes. Formatted to drop straight into a servicer portal.
How fast can you turn a property?
Standard turn is 48 hours from bid acceptance. Most single-family trash-outs are a one-day job.
Do you handle the personal property hold period?
We follow whatever the notice period requires and will inventory and store rather than dispose if you need us to. Tell us which one applies and we document to that standard.
