How Auburn junk removal pricing works

You pay for the space your load takes up, not for each item. Junk goes into our 15 cubic yard trailer, and most jobs use only part of it, so a few pieces aren't priced like a full trailer.

  • Half a 15-yard trailer $500; full 15-yard trailer $900. The price reflects how much space your junk fills.
  • $150 minimum. That is the smallest job we bill.
  • Loading and labor included. Nothing needs to be moved to the curb.
  • No item-specific surcharges. No add-on fees per appliance, mattress or piece of furniture.

We give you a price for your specific job first, and nothing is loaded until you have agreed to it.

Get your price by text

  1. Text 2 to 3 photos of the pile to (916) 878-0304: one wide shot, plus close-ups of any large items.
  2. Tell us where it is (garage, backyard, spare room) and where in Auburn you are.
  3. We give you a price for your load, based on the space it takes up, with the $150 minimum.
  4. Pick a time that works for you. We do all the loading.
  5. We haul it away and recycle what we reasonably can.

What we haul in Auburn

Auburn has a mix of historic houses near Old Town, hillside homes, and acreage with barns, sheds and outbuildings. Much of what we haul here is stuff that's built up over the years.

  • Shed, barn and outbuilding cleanouts: old tools, shelving, broken equipment and stored household items.
  • Yard and brush debris from foothill lots: branches, brush and clippings after a property cleanup. If you're clearing defensible space, we can take the cut material once it's piled.
  • Furniture and mattress removal from older homes, including tight stairways and narrow doorways.
  • Appliance removal: refrigerators, washers, dryers and dishwashers.
  • Estate and whole-house cleanouts, room by room.
  • Remodel debris: drywall, wood and flooring from updates to older Auburn homes.
  • Electronic waste: TVs, computers, monitors and printers.

Heavy items we haul in Auburn include mattresses, hot tubs, pianos and gun safes. For brush and defensible-space piles after you cut them, we can load the stacked material. Need the dumpster instead? Auburn dumpster rental.

What we cannot take

Paint, solvents, gasoline, hazardous waste, car batteries, railroad ties and telephone poles. Not sure about something in your pile? Call or text (916) 878-0304 before the appointment and we'll tell you.

Auburn disposal rules: what to do with hazardous items

Auburn's trash hauler is Recology Auburn Placer. Its Auburn Transfer Station is at 12305 Shale Ridge Road. The City of Auburn says some household hazardous waste is accepted there; call 530-885-3735 to confirm before you go.

Placer County residents can also drop off household hazardous waste for free at the Western Placer Waste Management Authority (WPWMA) facility, 3195 Athens Avenue in Lincoln. It's open daily 8am to 5pm, with a limit of 15 gallons or 125 pounds per visit.

We don't take paint, solvents, gasoline or car batteries, so set those aside for one of these drop-offs before your appointment.

Long driveways and hillside homes

Foothill properties often mean a long gravel driveway, a steep approach or a shed at the back of the lot. When you text photos, include one of the driveway or access path so we can plan. If a dumpster suits your project better, we also deliver dumpsters in Auburn.

See Auburn dumpster rental, our dumpster pricing, or the concrete and dirt dumpster for heavy material.

Hot tub removal in Auburn

Many Auburn hot tubs sit on raised decks or down a sloped back yard, so carrying them out is the hard part of the job. Have the power disconnected and the tub drained first. We then cut it into sections that fit through the gate and carry every piece out to the trailer. Tell us whether the tub is on a deck, on a slope or behind stairs. See hot tub removal for more.

Mattress and furniture pickup from older Auburn homes

Older houses near Old Town and downtown often have narrow stairways and small doorways. We carry out mattresses, box springs, dressers and couches from any room. Mattresses are priced as part of your load, with no extra fee. For more on mattresses, see our mattress disposal guide.

North Auburn, Christian Valley, Meadow Vista and Ophir

We haul junk from North Auburn off Bell Road and Highway 49, and from rural roads out toward Christian Valley, Meadow Vista and Ophir. If the job is big enough that you would rather load it yourself over a few days, rent a dumpster in Auburn instead.

Where we haul in and around Auburn

We also haul junk in nearby Newcastle, Penryn and Loomis, and down the hill in Rocklin and Roseville.

Same-day junk removal

Same-day junk removal may be available depending on the schedule. Call or text (916) 878-0304 to check availability.
