What We Take

We’ll remove pretty much everything except hazardous waste.  You need it gone?  We’ll get it done.

Furniture Removal

Furniture comes in all sorts of shapes and sizes, and we take it all.  From armoires, to desks, to tables, to entertainment centers, nothing is too big or too small.

Cardboard Removal

Did you just move in and find yourself with stacks and stacks of cardboard boxes? Have you gone on an online shopping spree and don’t know where to put it all? Give us a call.

Residential Junk Removal

Is junk piling up in the garage, side yard, or attic? Residential junk removal is our bread and butter, and we love servicing the residents of the Greater Sacramento Area.

Electronics require special handling for proper disposal. Whether you have an old tv, radio, or computer monitor, we’ll make sure it gets to the right place.

Appliance Removal

Do you have an old appliance that’s ready to retire? Do you have a new one coming and you need to make space? Old appliances are our specialty.

Exercise Equipment

Mattresses and box springs are a pain to get rid of. They’re bulky, and they require special handling. If you have one to get rid of, call us today.

Mattress Removal

Mattresses and box springs are a pain to get rid of. They’re bulky, and they require special handling. If you have one to get rid of, call us today.

Sports Equipment

Old Grill

Rusted grills are more common than not. Reclaim your backyard and have that old barbeque hauled away and recycled properly by an Eco-Friendly Junk Removal company.

Office Junk

Oversized Bulky Items

There’s never been an oversized, bulky item we couldn’t safely haul away. Pianos? Entertainment centers? No problem.

I needed assistance removing items from an Assisted Living Facility apartment. I chose American River Hauling because of all the good reviews. Those good reviews turned out to be correct. Highly professional but kind and thoughtful. Their estimate was very reasonable and given up front. I will call them again if needed and share my good experience with family and friends.
I contacted American River Hauling and Junk Removal at 7:17am, they showed up at 9am, and had my junk cleared out by 9:30am! The service was incredible, will definitely use them again next time we need something moved!

Highly recommend this company. I use them anytime I have a junk removal in their service area and they’re so great I ask them quite often if they’ll go out of their normal range just because I trust their services more than finding someone new. Can’t recommend them enough!!!

This company is truly an area gem. I called with a job and got a haul scheduled with no fuss. The staff was very careful and efficient while taking the designated items. They confirmed the items and clarified with me if needed. Everyone I interacted with for this haul job was professional, courteous, and positive. If I ever need another job done, I will be contacting American River Hauling and Junk Removal. Thank you!

I would recommend American River to everyone I know that needs hauling service. Nick and his partner arrived on time and pickup a very heavy dresser. The rate was very reasonable as I needed the dresser removed asap. Thank you,

Junk Removal companies may do a variety of different things with your items after they’ve picked it up.

  1. Take it to the landfill
  2. Recycle items
  3. Re-home items
  4. Repurpose items

 

At American River Hauling and Junk Removal llc, we began the “Landfill-Last” movement where we do everything we reasonably can to make sure that our landfills don’t get filled with items that don’t need to be there.  Make sure to give your local junk removal company a call to see if they adopt practices like us, or if you need to keep calling around to find someone who does!

  • Home Maintenance Items: paint, propane, paint thinner, kerosene
  • Backyard Items: fertilizer, pool chemicals, pesticides, rat and rodent poisons

  • Car / Truck Items: gasoline, brake fluid, motor oil, radiator cleaner, antifreeze
  • Items Containing Mercury: Fluorescent bulbs, thermometers, thermostats
  • Other Items: explosives, ammunition, medical waste, asbestos

Junk Removal companies don’t typically take hazardous items because of the following reasons:

  1. Cost of permitting required to handle/transport hazardous items legally and safely.
  2. The potential risk of mislabeled or unlabeled chemicals.
  3. Disposing of chemicals as a business costs money, while it’s typically free for residents in many cities/counties.

If you find a junk removal company that is willing to haul hazardous waste, be sure to check and see if they are licensed and permitted to do so.
