"We hired Felipe to add rocks to the front of our yard that was being overtaken by weeds. All that I was looking for was to place weed barrier down and add a border around where the rocks would be laid. Felipe came to the house to assess the work and returned renderings the same day. The different design options he provided were impressive, even including an upgrade to the mailboxes. His quote was reasonable. Throughout the process Felipe was so kind asking lots of questions to make sure he understood what we wanted. He even provided different rock samples to choose from. He started on a Monday and finished that same Wednesday. We asked that he also do a similar rock layout on the side of the house for an additional reasonable charge. That work was completed the next day. The family is ecstatic with the results. Comparing the rendering with the final outcome, you can’t tell the difference. Look no further; Felipe is your guy! "

"Instate Moving Co. contacted me via text and set up the appointment, time & cost. He texted about one hour before appointment and said he was running 30 minutes late and would text again before arrival. Got here at the time he set and went to work. Finished and cleaned up. GREAT communications. Will use again if needed."

"I am super appreciative that I found Elias. He really stepped up when a simple project turned into something a lot more complicated. We had some windows that we needed to replace, but in the course of fixing that, we ended up replacing the asbestos siding to our house, which revealed wood-shingled siding that needed to be painstakingly replaced. Elias handled everything for me. He found the right people to help him, kept me informed, and the work is clean and well done. I would definitely use his services in the future. I have since returned to him for various other repairs involving plumbing, electrical, tile work, drywall, and carpentry. Thank you for your services, Elias!"

"Mauricio from Solid Ground Landscaping LLC is an incredible gardener, handyman, landscaper, etc. and there is pretty much nothing that he cannot do with amazing talent! He came very highly recommended and got to work the same day with a very hard working crew, punctual and ready to work and did above and beyond what I asked him to do. He knows how to do everything (handyman, electrician, plumbing, pavers, sprinklers, junk removal, cement and patio work, and so much more!) He is truly your Go To Guy! I truly value and respect our working relationship and his overall work ethic. He will not let you down! I can usually call him and he is often times available to work that same day! His prices are also very reasonable for the high quality of work he provides. No job. Is too small or too large for his company to take on! He is truly the best! "

FAQs for waste, junk, building materials and debris removal and hauling projects in Alameda, CA

To throw out stained, broken, or infested mattresses or couches, call a junk hauler or take it to your local landfill yourself. If it’s infested with pests, you might want to call a pest control specialist near you. If you have infested furniture, there's a good chance you have an infested home, too.

Tipping furniture removal services is not mandatory, but it is a thoughtful way to acknowledge their hard work and professionalism. If you're pleased with the service, consider tipping junk haulers 5% to 10% of the total cost or $10 to $20 per worker. This is especially appreciated when the job involves heavy lifting, navigating stairs, or handling bulky items. Tipping not only rewards the workers for a job well done but also fosters a positive working relationship.

If your furniture is in good condition, you have a few options:

  • Donate to charities: Organizations like Goodwill, Salvation Army, Habitat for Humanity, and GreenDrop often accept furniture donations and may offer free pickup services.

  • List online: You can list your items for free on local online marketplaces or community groups to find someone who needs them. Giving away your furniture not only helps you clear space but also benefits others in your community.

The cost to haul away junk depends on the haul’s size. A single item costs $60 to $150 to haul, with each additional item adding $20 to $40 to the total price. Hauling away a full truckload of trash or other junk will run $400 to $800.

Yes, some furniture retailers will haul away your old furniture when they deliver your new items. This service may be included in your purchase price or offered at a discounted rate. It's important to check with the store to see if they provide furniture removal and whether there are any requirements, such as a minimum purchase. Utilizing this service can save you time and effort in disposing of your old furniture.

In many cases, you can dispose of furniture in a dumpster, but regulations vary by location. Some areas prohibit items like mattresses or upholstered furniture due to environmental concerns. It's best to check with your local waste management authorities or dumpster rental company to understand what's allowed.
