Quick answer
What can San Diego Junk Removal take?
Almost anything that isn’t hazardous and that two people can lift and load: furniture, mattresses, appliances, electronics, exercise equipment, hot tubs, yard waste, construction debris and more. We typically can’t take car fluids, biohazardous materials, pesticides and herbicides, wet paint, pressurized containers or asbestos. Not sure about an item? Call (619) 777-5533.
