How do I know my junk was not dumped in an alley?

Because you get the evidence: a photo of the load at the disposal facility, the facility name, and the weight ticket where one is issued. If that documentation is missing from your job record, the job is not closed.

Do you actually donate things, or is that just marketing?

We route resale-condition furniture and household goods to donation and reuse partners, and the partner name goes on your job record. We do not publish a donation percentage, because a number nobody can verify is worth nothing.

Why does the disposal facility matter to my price?

Facilities charge by the ton and add per-item fees for mattresses, tires and refrigerant appliances. Travel time to the nearest facility is also real cost. Both are inside your quoted range instead of hidden in a base rate.

What will you not take?

Liquid paint, solvents, fuel and oil, propane and pressurized cylinders, asbestos and regulated materials, medical and biohazard waste, and ammunition. We point you to the household hazardous waste program for your county instead.

Do you destroy data on electronics?

No. Electronics go to a licensed recycler, but you should wipe or remove drives yourself. We say this plainly rather than implying a service we do not provide.

Disposal proof

Photographed at the scale house. Every load.

Ask around locally about cheap dump runs and you will hear the same worry: nobody knows whether the load reached a facility or an alley. So we prove it instead of promising it.

What ends up on your job record

This is the artifact, not a slogan. It is the same documentation a property manager or an estate attorney can file.

Every completed job includes

A photo of the loaded truck at the disposal or transfer facility
The name of the facility the load was tipped at
The weight ticket where the facility issues one
The donation or reuse partner for anything diverted
The date, time and crew that completed the work

What we deliberately do not claim

No invented donation percentage — we name the partner instead
No recycling claim for material a facility does not actually accept
No carbon or landfill-diversion statistic we cannot document
No data-destruction service on electronics
No fabricated licensing or certification badges

How a load is separated before it is tipped

Diversion happens before the scale, not in a brochure. Each stream costs a different amount to process, which is why your quote is itemized the way it is.

Donation and reuse first

Furniture, appliances and household goods in resale condition are offered to a donation or reuse partner before anything else happens. The partner is named on your record.

Metal and electronics

Appliances, bed frames, exercise equipment and office fixtures are pulled for scrap. Electronics go to a licensed e-waste recycler on a separate stream.

Disposal last

What remains goes to a licensed transfer station or landfill and is weighed in. Mattresses, tires and refrigerant units are recorded separately because they carry their own fees.

Facilities we tip at

Which facility your load goes to depends on where the job is. Travel time to it is part of your price, so we name it up front.

Facility hours, accepted materials and per-ton rates are set by each operator and change. Your neighborhood page names the facility and the approximate drive for your specific block.

What we will not put in the truck

Liquid paint, stain and solvents. Gasoline, motor oil and antifreeze. Propane tanks and pressurized cylinders. Pesticides and pool chemicals. Asbestos, lead debris and other regulated materials. Medical, biohazard and sharps waste. Ammunition and explosives.

These are not upsell opportunities — they are material a transfer station will reject and we are not licensed to carry. Every county in our service area runs a household hazardous waste program, and the honest answer is to send you there.
