Overview
Yard waste removal in Sacramento for the pile the 96-gallon green bin cannot touch: a weekend of tree trimming, a dead hedge, a fallen limb, or the old fence that came down with it. We load it and haul it the same day most days.
The green bin holds 96 gallons, about one big bag of leaves and a few branches. One Saturday of pruning the orange tree and tearing out the overgrown hedge in Land Park produces ten times that, and the pile sits by the fence until someone rents a trailer. We are the trailer, plus the two people to load it. Text a photo, get a price, and the pile is gone, often the day you text.

What We Haul: Yard Waste Removal in Sacramento
Our yard debris removal Sacramento service is for bulk green waste and landscaping leftovers that curbside will not take: the volume, the branch size, or the material. We load whole truckloads, not a bag or two, so there is no trailer rental and no three trips to the transfer station. You point to the pile and we do the rest, for homeowners and for property managers maintaining dozens of rentals.
Green waste and vegetation, small amounts of soil and hardscape, and landscaping structures. Here is what rides in the truck:
- Tree branches and limbs, including storm drops too big for the bin
- Shrubs, hedges and bush trimmings
- Leaves, bagged or in loose piles
- Grass clippings, weeds and ground cover
- Dead plants and flowers
- Palm fronds
- Small stumps and root balls
- Dirt, topsoil and sod, small amounts alongside a load only; a full sod or fill removal needs a dump truck service
- Gravel, rock, broken concrete and pavers, small amounts only
- Flagstone and stepping stones
- Old fencing: wood, chain link or vinyl
- Rotting deck boards and old raised garden beds
- Landscape timbers and railroad ties
- Garden sheds and playhouses, small structures
- Broken garden furniture, patio umbrellas, planters and decor
Not sure about something? Text (916) 770-7619 and we tell you straight. Heavy fill like dirt, sod and rock goes in small amounts alongside a load, not by the truckload, because weight fills the truck long before volume does.
Why Sacramento's Seasons Mean Big Yard Waste
Sacramento never gets a break from yard debris, and each season has its own pile.
Spring. Garden renovations: old plants out, new beds in, trimmings stacked faster than the bin empties. Green waste removal is the spring call.
Summer. Triple-digit heat kills plants and pushes homeowners to prune back overgrowth for fire risk. Tree branch removal in Sacramento spikes in July and August.
Fall. The mature canopy in Curtis Park, East Sacramento and the Fab 40s drops a staggering volume of leaves from October through December. A 96-gallon bin is a rounding error on those streets.
Winter. Storms bring down branches, and wet loads are heavier and harder to move. We handle storm debris removal so you are not dragging soggy limbs to the curb.
Holiday Trees After the Holidays
In the City of Sacramento, on-street holiday tree pickup is part of the City’s Leaf Season service, which runs November through January. Residential customers who receive that service can put their tree in the street pile once it is cleaned of lights, tinsel, tree stands, nails and decorations.
Not everyone gets that service. The City says businesses and residents who live in apartments, on private streets or in gated communities should use one of its free drop-off events or find another legal disposal method, and that leaving a tree on City streets otherwise counts as illegal dumping. Drop-off locations and dates are posted on the City’s Holiday Tree Recycling page.
If on-street pickup isn’t an option for you and a drop-off trip doesn’t work, ask us about hauling your tree when you request a quote. For everything else we haul in these months, see fall & winter junk removal.
When the City Will Do It for Free
City of Sacramento residents with city trash service get free appointment-based bulky pickups, a few items at a time. The same appointment system collects loose yard-waste piles from the street in front of the house, kept out of bike lanes and away from storm drains. If you can wait for the date and the pile is modest, use it. We are for the rest: the hedge that came out this morning, the fence line that fell, the rental in Natomas that has to show on Friday, or an address outside city limits where there is no such program.

What Yard Waste Removal Costs in Sacramento
You pay for the share of the truck the pile fills, same tiers as every job:
| Load | Typical price | What that looks like |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum | $99 to $150 | A pickup bed of branches, or ten bags of leaves |
| Quarter truck | $180 to $280 | A hedge tear-out, or a fallen limb cut up |
| Half truck | $320 to $480 | A whole-yard fall cleanup, or a run of old fencing |
| Full truck | $850 to $1,000 | A full landscape renovation, stumps and all |
Three things move the number: weight (dirt, sod, concrete and stumps cost more to dump than leaves), access (a pile at the curb versus one down a hill in the back), and mixed material (green waste with concrete or fencing takes more handling). We quote before we load a single branch, with no hidden dump fees, and booking online takes $20 off.
