Junk Removal in Jamestown, CA
Jamestown is three miles south of Sonora on Highways 49 and 108, a short drive from our Sonora base.
We haul junk, clean out houses and garages, and pick up yard and storm debris in Jamestown. A few items usually run $200 to $400, and a 16-foot trailer piled high is typically $700 to $1,000, with dump fees included. Estimates usually happen the same day or the next. Household loads go to the Cal Sierra Transfer Station in East Sonora, and the hazardous waste we cannot take can go to the county's own drop-off right here in Jamestown.
Jamestown, and what goes where
Jamestown was founded in 1848 and is home to Railtown 1897 State Historic Park, a working steam-era railroad that has appeared in more than 200 films. The Jamestown area had 3,478 people in the 2020 Census.
Jamestown is also where Tuolumne County runs its household hazardous waste program. The Jamestown Household Hazardous Waste Facility at 17855 High School Road opens on the third Wednesday of each month, 9 AM to 1 PM. Hazardous waste drop-off is by appointment (call the county at (209) 533-5588), and county residents can drop off mattresses and e-waste there for free.
That matters on a cleanout. Old paint, pesticides and fuel are things we cannot haul, so we set them aside and point you to the Jamestown facility. A mattress you would rather drop off yourself can go there too, instead of paying the per-mattress fee at Cal Sierra.
Curbside trash in Jamestown is Cal Sierra Disposal (WM). The cart takes regular trash; furniture, appliances and whole cleanouts are what we haul.
