Thanks, Serge, for the quick, professional, and reasonably priced service. Will use you again - highly recommend!
Overview
The lockbox code arrives Tuesday, the appraiser is booked for Friday, and the house is still full of someone else's life. We clear it, sweep it and send the date-stamped photos your preservation report needs.
The asset manager emails a lockbox code and a deadline. Inside is whatever the last occupants could not fit in the car: the bedroom sets, the garage, a fridge with food in it, a yard nobody has mowed in months. Sacramento REO work is the same problem on repeat, from Elk Grove ranch homes to Midtown condos.

Built for Banks, Asset Managers, and Agents
Preservation timelines do not wait for a convenient week. We take trash-outs on short notice, often within 24 hours, document the work and leave the property broom-clean in the sense lenders mean it: every room emptied, floors swept, cabinets and closets cleared, garage and yard included. We scale to the job, from a one-bedroom condo to a full house on an acre.
What a Foreclosure Trash-Out Includes
- Removal of all abandoned furniture and personal property
- Interior debris, trash and food waste
- Garage, yard and exterior debris, including dumped items and old play structures
- Appliances and a few electronics
- Broom-clean sweep of the interior
- Date-stamped before-and-after photos and an itemized list on request
One thing to settle before we arrive: California requires a written notice to the former occupant and a holding period, 15 days (18 if the notice is mailed), before their personal property is disposed of. Your preservation checklist usually covers it; tell us where the property stands when you book.
How It Works: Four Simple Steps
- 1. Book online or text. Send the address, the lockbox details and photos if you have them. Same-day and weekend slots are usually open.
- 2. Get a price before we start. We quote from photos or a walkthrough, and the number is confirmed before the first item moves. No hourly meter.
- 3. We do the lifting. A two-person crew carries everything out, down the stairs and through the tight doorways, and sweeps behind itself.
- 4. We haul it off and send the photos. Usable furniture goes to a Sacramento-area charity when we can, metal and appliances to recyclers, the rest to the transfer station.
Documentation That Fits Your Reporting
Asset managers and preservation companies cannot take "it's done" on faith. We provide date-stamped before-and-after photos and an itemized summary of what left the property, formatted to drop into your report. If the property needs a lock change, a board-up referral or a second haul after the appraisal, we schedule around it so the listing does not stall.
High-Volume and Recurring REO Work
If you manage a portfolio, you should not have to re-explain your process on every address. We set the scope, the price schedule and the documentation format once, then run every turn the same way, with net 15 or net 30 invoicing for repeat accounts.
What Realtors and Investors Say
“I’m a realtor and have used them for any clients that need junk hauled away. I had a really steep basement in one to get appliances out of. Usually there are last-minute items that you have to add and they’re so accommodating.”
Clara Tucker, Google“Serge was excellent. He was timely, conscientious, and polite. So much so that we recommended him to our realtor to add to her resource list of businesses she works with.”
Mark and Elna Jones, Google“Serge with TCJ Hauling has hauled away piles of junk for me twice and both times responded rapidly and removed same day.”
Melanie Baranowski, GoogleWhat a Foreclosure Cleanout Costs
By truck space, like every job we do. A lightly furnished property starts around $250. A full house with a garage and yard is a full truck, $850 to $1,000. The number is confirmed before we start, and there is no dump fee added later.
Serving Sacramento County and Beyond
Trash-outs across Sacramento, West Sacramento, Elk Grove, Rancho Cordova, Citrus Heights, Folsom, Roseville and the surrounding communities, including the neighborhoods where REO inventory tends to cluster: Del Paso Heights, North Highlands, Valley Hi, Meadowview and South Sacramento.
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can you complete a foreclosure trash-out?
Most single-family trash-outs are done the same or next day, and we can usually mobilize within 24 hours in the Sacramento area. A full house with a garage and yard is one long day for the crew.
Do you provide documentation for asset managers?
Yes. Date-stamped before-and-after photos and an itemized summary of what was removed, formatted for preservation and reporting requirements.
Can you handle high-volume or recurring properties?
Yes. For realtors and asset managers with recurring REO inventory we set the scope, pricing and documentation once, so every turn runs the same way, with invoicing for repeat accounts.
What does a foreclosure cleanout cost?
Pricing is by volume. A lightly furnished property starts around $250; a full house is a full truck at $850 to $1,000. You get a firm, itemized quote before we start.
Do you handle exterior and yard debris too?
Yes. Abandoned properties often have as much outside as in: dumped items, tires, old play structures and the garage. All of it goes in the same trash-out.
Can you access the property if it's locked or vacant?
Yes, with a lockbox code or gate code from your team. Most REO clients share access details and receive photos when the work is finished, without meeting us there.

Serge was awesome to work with. I am very grateful I found his company. I contacted them on a Tuesday and by Wednesday the hot tub was gone. He was on time and worked hard. Left the area cleaned up and I’m so excited to have my backyard back!
