Junk removal in Vista & North County.
Let the burro haul it.
Send a couple photos of the pile so I can confirm what's there and get you on the schedule. No call centers, no middlemen — and you get the firm number from me at the curb, before anything moves.

I look at the photos, confirm what's there, and get back to you with the days that work.

I haul it
I show up in your window, give you the firm price before I touch anything, load it, and sweep up. Gone.
No mystery — priced by how much fills the trailer.
Everything's priced by how much room your stuff takes up in my dump trailer. A quarter of it, half, three-quarters, or packed full — that fraction is the price, and if it takes less room, you pay less. Your photos tell me which fraction you're in; I confirm it with you on-site, in writing, before I lift a thing. Labor, loading, hauling and the dump and recycle fees are already inside it.
Just a few items
a chair, a small appliance
The couch on the curb, the fridge in the garage, the treadmill nobody runs on.
Quarter trailer
a small room's worth
A washer and a dryer, a mattress, and the few boxes stacked next to them.
Half trailer
a bedroom or a garage corner
A bedroom emptied out — mattress, box spring, frame, dresser, nightstands.
Three-quarter trailer
most of a single-car garage
A single-car garage cleared to the walls — shelving, bikes, paint-free clutter and all.
Full trailer
major cleanout
A living room and a dining room emptied, or a garage packed front to back.

The figures land on this page the day my price sheet is armed — I don't post a list I'd have to walk back. Until then the honest number comes from looking at your pile, and you get it from me in person, before anything moves. Send a couple photos and I'll get you on the schedule.
North County is my AO
Based in Vista, rolling daily through the core zone — and out to Escondido and Fallbrook for the bigger jobs.
A Marine's standard,
applied to your junk pile.
I'm Bruce — Marine Corps veteran, North County local. I show up when I say I will, quote what it actually costs, and leave the place cleaner than I found it. That's the business model.
Read the storyBefore / After
Real photos from real hauls land here after my first jobs — no stock photos, no staging. Book an early job and you're helping build this wall.

One truck, or the big guys
The owner. Not a switchboard.
Usually a call center.
The same people who quoted you.
Whoever's on the schedule.
A range by text, before we roll.
Often once the truck's already in your driveway.
No franchise fees, no national ad budget.
Franchise royalties and advertising.
No knock on the big guys — they move a lot of junk. But if you'd rather deal with one person from first text to final sweep, that's what I am.
Watch a garage disappear.
@junkburro
Same handle everywhere. I post the before-and-afters — the pile on the way in, the bare floor on the way out — plus whatever turns up in a cleanout, because something always does. If you want to see how I work before you send me photos, it's all right there.
You get your firm price from me in person, before anything moves — labor, loading, hauling and dump fees already inside it.
Nothing gets added after: no fuel fee, no dump surcharge, no surprise on the invoice. And if the pile turns out bigger than the photos showed, you hear that number before I touch anything. Send me home if you don't like it. No fee, no hard feelings.
What I grab
If it isn't hazardous, odds are it's going in the trailer. Furniture to full cleanouts — here are the usual suspects:
- Furniture
couches, mattresses, dressers, desks
- Appliances
washers, dryers, stoves, water heaters
- Yard debris
branches, brush, fencing, sod
- Garage & storage junk
boxes, shelving, tools, misc.
- Construction debris
drywall, lumber, tile, cabinets
- Estate & rental cleanouts
whole-room or whole-home clear-outs
- Electronics (e-waste)
TVs, monitors, computers — recycled properly
- Hot tubs & sheds
old sheds cleared out, and hot tubs that are already disconnected and disassembled
- Exercise equipment
treadmills, weight sets, ellipticals
Just one or two things?
That's a real job too — a single couch, the fridge nobody defrosted, the desk that never fit. Past a couple of pieces it starts measuring by the trailer fractions up top: a washer, a dryer and a few boxes is quarter-trailer territory. Send a photo either way and I'll tell you which one you're in before we pick a day — then you get the firm number at the curb.
Donate & recycle first
Usable furniture and goods get a second life through local donation before anything heads to the dump, and e-waste — TVs, monitors, electronics — is recycled properly instead of landfilled. It's the right way to do it, and it's already baked into your price.
