Yard Waste · Guatay, CA

Yard Waste in Guatay, CA.

Yard Waste for Guatay homes, done by an insured San Diego County crew. One big palm frond doesn't fit in the green bin. Neither does the pile from a weekend of trimming, a sod tear-out, or a tree drop.

Guatay: Guatay is a tiny mountain community on SR-79 between Julian and I-8 at 3,500 feet - cabin and small-home cleanouts scheduled 48+ hours out and bundled with Pine Valley, Descanso, and Julian-area routing.

Mountain yard waste is heavy on pine, oak, and manzanita. Defensible-space clearings are the most common project, urgent around fire-season deadlines. We prioritize these jobs.

Can't I just put it in the green bin?

If it fits, sure. The problem is palm fronds (too long), large branches (too thick), sod (too heavy), and volume that would take six weeks of weekly pickups. We're the answer when the green bin isn't enough.

Do you take logs from a tree drop?

Yes. If you want to keep the logs for firewood, we'll leave them stacked. If not, we haul. Rounds over 18" get split for charity firewood programs when possible.
