Storm Debris Removal in Sacramento

Downed branches, broken fencing, soaked yard debris and water-damaged belongings — we load it and haul it away.

Sacramento’s winter storms bring down branches, knock over fences and leave yards covered in wet, heavy debris. Wet conditions make that cleanup heavier and harder. Our crew does the loading and hauls the debris away, so you don’t have to stack soggy branches at the curb or make trips to the dump.

What we haul after a storm

Our storm debris service is about removal: material that is already down and needs to go. We commonly haul:

  • Tree branches and limbs that have already come down
  • Leaves, shrubs, hedge trimmings and other soaked yard debris
  • Old or broken fencing — wood, chain link and vinyl
  • Broken garden furniture, planters, patio umbrellas and décor
  • Rotting deck boards, landscape timbers and old raised garden beds
  • Water-damaged belongings from the garage — ruined boxes and furniture that sat too close to the floor

Hauling, not tree work

We are a junk and debris hauling company. If a tree or large limb is still standing, hung up in another tree, or resting on a roof, a car or a structure, call a tree service first. Stay well away from downed power lines and report them to your utility.

Once the material is down and safe to move, we can load it and take it away. Tell us what you have when you book, and send photos, so we can confirm what we can take.

How it works

  • Send photos or describe the debris. Use the booking form or call us.
  • Get an upfront price. We price by how much of the truck the load fills and confirm the number before any work starts. See our pricing guide for how that works.
  • We load everything. Our crew does the lifting and carrying.
  • We haul it away and sweep up. Green waste is composted and recycled whenever possible.

City of Sacramento pickup options for yard debris

If you are a City of Sacramento residential customer, the City has its own options. During Leaf Season (November through January), customers on public streets with a curb and gutter can pile excess yard waste in the street, as long as piles stay within five cubic yards and limbs are cut to 3 feet or less and no more than 4 inches thick. From February through October, the two free household junk pickup appointments accept yard waste within the same limb limits, kept separate from other junk. Sources: City Leaf Season and City Household Junk Pickup.

A hauler is the better fit when the debris doesn’t fit those limits, you don’t want to cut and stack it at the street, it’s mixed with other junk, or your property isn’t on City service.

For HOAs and property managers

Storms rarely hit just one property. We work with landscapers and property managers on yard waste hauling across multiple properties, including recurring and multi-property pickups. See commercial junk removal for how we work with businesses.

Related winter cleanups

Storm damage often shows up in the garage too. Our garage cleanout service clears out water-damaged boxes and belongings, and our yard waste removal covers regular yard debris all year. For everything we haul in these months, see fall & winter junk removal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you cut up fallen trees?
This service is for hauling debris that is already down and safe to move. If a tree or limb still needs cutting, or is resting on a roof, vehicle or power line, call a tree service or your utility first. Tell us what you have when you book and we will confirm what we can take.
Can you haul wet, heavy storm debris?
Yes. Soaked branches, leaves and yard debris are exactly what makes storm cleanup hard to do yourself. Our crew does all the loading.
How is storm debris removal priced?
Like our other hauling, by how much of the truck the load fills. We confirm an upfront price before we start. Photos help us give you an accurate quote.
Will the City of Sacramento pick up storm debris?
City residential customers can put yard waste within the City’s size limits in the street during Leaf Season (November through January) or out for a household junk appointment from February through October. Check the City’s Leaf Season and Household Junk Pickup pages for the current rules.
