What goes in the truck
Most remodel and repair debris is fine. A few materials need a call first, and some can't go in a regular load in California.
Goes in the truck
- Drywall, plaster and lath
- Lumber, plywood, trim, decks and fencing
- Shingles, felt and flashing
- Concrete, brick, block and tile pieces
- Flooring: carpet, pad, laminate, tile
- Cabinets, counters, doors, fixtures
- Packaging, pallets and cardboard
Call first
- Drywall, textures or vinyl tile from a home built before the 1980s
- Pressure-treated wood in large amounts
- Concrete with lots of soil, or big rock
- Full tile roofs
These change how the load is handled or where it can go.
Not in our loads
- Paint, solvents, adhesives and pesticides
- Material that tested positive for asbestos
- Batteries, fuel and propane tanks
- Fluorescent tubes and electronics
Household hazardous waste goes to county and city drop-off programs (San Diego County HHW).
Seven services, from the roof down to the slab
Construction debris removal covers mixed loads. If your pile is mostly one material, its own page explains how we handle it, what it weighs and where it goes.
Construction Debris Removal
Mixed piles from a remodel, repair or build: drywall, lumber, shingles, broken concrete, cabinets and packaging, loaded by the crew and hauled in one trip.
Roofing Debris Removal
Torn-off asphalt shingles, underlayment, flashing and old sheathing hauled after a re-roof or a storm repair.
Lumber Removal
Old framing, offcuts, torn-down decks, fence boards and pallets, including pressure-treated wood kept separate for the right facility.
Drywall Removal
Torn-out gypsum board, new-construction scraps and bagged sanding dust carried out of the house and hauled.
Flooring Removal
Carpet and pad, laminate, engineered wood, ceramic tile and sheet vinyl pulled up or already stacked, then hauled.
Concrete Removal
Patios, walkways, small pads and already-broken slab pieces broken into liftable chunks, loaded and taken to recycling.
Renovation Debris Cleanup
The cleanup at the end of a remodel: bagging small debris, clearing the rooms and driveway, and hauling the last load.
How a load is priced
We don't quote a flat rate without seeing the pile, because two loads that look the same can differ by a ton. Concrete runs about 145 to 150 pounds per cubic foot; drywall and lumber weigh a fraction of that for the same space.
Photos and a few details get you a price range on the first call. The final price is confirmed on site before anything is loaded.
- How muchThe share of the truck the pile fills, from a few items to a full load.
- How heavyConcrete, tile and roofing reach weight limits before the truck is full.
- How far we carry itDriveway edge, backyard, inside, upstairs or down a steep drive.
- How loose it isSmall pieces that need bagging or shoveling take longer than bulky ones.
| Material | Unit | Weight | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Concrete, normal weight | per cubic foot | 145–150 lb | FHWA |
| 4-inch slab, 10 × 10 ft | whole slab | ≈ 4,800–5,000 lb | from FHWA figure |
| Three-tab shingle tear-off | per square | ≈ 200 lb | IKO |
| Laminate shingle tear-off | per square | ≈ 240 lb | IKO |
| Premium shingle tear-off | per square | ≈ 300 lb | IKO |

Pala and the towns along SR-76 and I-15
Pala sits on State Route 76, with Pala Temecula Road running north to Temecula, about 10 miles away by straight line. Those roads shape our area: Pauma Valley and Valley Center to the east and south, Rainbow, Fallbrook and Bonsall toward I-15, and the I-15 corridor north into southwest Riverside County.
Each town page covers who issues permits there, the nearest disposal and recycling sites, and access notes for that area.

Questions people ask before they call
How fast can you come out?
It depends on the week's schedule and how far you are from our route. Call (951) 720-3745 and we'll give you the next open time. Our phones are answered Mon–Fri 8–6 · Sat 9–4.
Do I need to move the debris to the driveway?
No. The crew loads from wherever the debris is, including backyards, garages and inside the house. Long carries and stairs add time, so mention them.
Do you take one material, or mixed loads?
Both. Mixed remodel debris is the most common job. Single-material loads like concrete or shingles are priced mostly by weight.
What can't you take?
Paint, solvents and other household hazardous waste, batteries and fuel tanks, and any material that tested positive for asbestos. If you're unsure about something, ask before we load.
