Debris removal on Pauma Valley ranches and groves
State Route 76 runs the length of Pauma Valley through citrus and avocado groves. A typical call is a ranch outbuilding coming down, a fence line being replaced, or a house remodel at the end of a grove road.
The headquarters of the Pauma Band and the La Jolla Band are in the valley. If your parcel is tribal land, the permit path may differ from County rules, so check with the tribe or your contractor before assuming the County C&D permit applies.

Access and estimate notes for Pauma Valley
Grove roads are often unpaved and narrow, with irrigation lines close to the edge. Point out risers and drip lines when you describe the route to the pile.
Clean, untreated wood from old fencing or pallets can sometimes go to composting instead of a landfill. Pressure-treated posts and boards can't; they go to an approved landfill under California's treated wood rules.
If your project holds a County Debris Management Permit, the County limits who may haul its C&D debris to approved collectors. Check that list, and tell us about the permit when you call, so the debris goes the way your permit requires.
