Serving City Heights and the Nearby Streets
We run pickups the length of El Cajon Boulevard and University Avenue, block by block.
Junk Removal in City Heights
City Heights packs a lot of housing onto small lots - older bungalows next to low-rise apartment buildings, most of it built before anyone planned for two cars a household. That means parking near a job isn't a given the way it is in a lot of the county; it depends on the block. We work both sides of El Cajon Boulevard and University Avenue and everywhere between, from a single apartment clearout to a full bungalow.
City Heights sits inside our regular San Diego route - see Booking Junk Removal in San Diego for coverage further out. Junk Removal in San Diego
What Neighbors Ask Us to Haul
- Apartment and unit turnover cleanouts
- Old furniture and mattresses
- Appliances - fridges, stoves, window AC units
- Bulky curbside pickups
- Yard waste and brush
- Construction and remodel debris
Fire-season brush clearing drives bookings across the county, though in City Heights we see just as much demand from apartment turnover any time of year.
Access and Parking in City Heights
City Heights mixes older bungalows with low-rise apartment and condo buildings on compact lots, and on-site parking - carports, small lots - isn't guaranteed one space per unit. Streets off El Cajon Boulevard and University Avenue tend to run narrower than the main corridors.
Because parking varies so much block by block, we ask where the truck can actually sit before we lock in a window.
Same-Day Junk Removal in City Heights
City Heights sits dead center in our regular San Diego route, so crews are through often and open slots come up regularly. Because parking depends on the block, we usually confirm where the truck can actually sit before locking in a same-day window.
Apartments, Condos and HOAs in City Heights
City Heights changes building type block to block - a bungalow on one lot, a low-rise apartment or small condo building on the next. On-site parking, a carport or a handful of spaces, isn't guaranteed one spot per unit, so we ask which unit we're pulling from and where the truck can actually park before we commit to a window.
Where City Heights Loads Go
City Heights jobs head up to Miramar Landfill & Recycling Center on Convoy Street in Kearny Mesa, reached off SR-52.
Turnover mattresses get diverted into Miramar's free recycling program rather than the landfill pile, and paint cans go to a PaintCare drop-off instead of riding along on the load.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where do you park for a City Heights pickup?
It depends on the block - some buildings have a carport or small lot, others don't guarantee a space at all. We ask about parking when you book so the crew isn't circling off El Cajon Boulevard or University Avenue looking for a spot.
Do you clear out apartments between tenants?
Regularly. City Heights has a lot of turnover in its low-rise buildings, and we're often the last stop before a unit gets repainted and re-listed.
How does pricing work here?
By volume - measured by what actually fills the truck, not how long the job takes. Heavier items like old appliances or tile cost more because the landfill's fees are weight-based. You'll have the number before we load anything.
How is this different from the city's free bulky pickup?
San Diego's Get It Done program picks up bulky items curbside twice a year, up to six items by appointment. We're not that program - we come whenever you book, take more than six items, and clear things it won't, like a full garage or apartment worth of stuff.
Do you recycle or donate what you haul instead of dumping it?
When we can. Mattresses from apartment turnovers get pulled out for Miramar's free recycling program instead of going to the landfill, and paint cans go through the county's PaintCare drop-off rather than riding along with the rest of the load.
