Haul Smarter, Not Heavier
Spring and fall cleanups create volume fast. Load with the dump angle in mind and know what the facility accepts.
Materials Required
- Trailer reservation
- Gloves, eye protection, closed-toe shoes
- Tarp/rope if required
- Facility accepted-materials list
Step by Step
-
Book and confirm hitch readiness
Confirm pickup window, hitch class, and tow capacity empty and loaded.
-
Sort as you cut
Keep green waste separate from treated lumber, concrete, and trash when facilities require it.
-
Load low and balanced
Heavy items first, centered over the axle. Stay within height and weight limits.
-
Secure the load
Tarp when required or when material can blow out.
-
Dump carefully and return clean
Level ground for dumping; sweep the street; note damage.
San Diego Tips
- Call the facility for hours and prohibited items before you fill.
