The Junkiez provides same-day construction debris removal in La Jolla. Drywall, lumber, tile, concrete and remodel debris hauled off, with the recycling documentation your permit may require.

Remodel debris is heavy, and weight is what makes it different from every other job we do. A half truck of drywall and tile can outweigh a full truck of furniture, so this is the one category where we sometimes cap by weight rather than volume. We work with contractors on live sites and with homeowners who took on a bathroom themselves and now have a driveway full of it.

### Construction Debris in La Jolla

La Jolla is hillside and cliffside housing where the access matters more than the volume. Homes on Mount Soledad have steep switchback driveways, cliff-side properties may be reached by a long stairway from the street, and the Village has narrow streets with heavy parking pressure. Estate clear-outs are a large share of the work here.

We assess the approach before dispatch on Mount Soledad and Muirlands addresses — some driveways genuinely will not take a loaded box truck and we stage at the street instead. Village parking is difficult year-round; early mornings are considerably faster. UCSD nearby drives a student turnover cycle in June and September.

### What we take

- Drywall, plaster and lath

- Lumber, framing offcuts and plywood

- Tile, porcelain, stone and grout

- Concrete, brick, block and rubble

- Cabinetry, countertops and fixtures

- Roofing, shingles and underlayment

- Flooring, carpet, pad and underlay

- Windows, doors, trim and mouldings

- Metal, conduit, wiring and ducting

### The diversion paperwork your permit needs

Most Southern California jurisdictions require construction and demolition projects over a size threshold to divert a set percentage of debris — frequently 65% or more — from landfill, and to prove it before final sign-off. The City of Los Angeles requires C&D waste go to a certified processing facility. We deliver to certified facilities and can provide the weight tickets and diversion documentation. Ask for it at booking; retrofitting the paperwork after the fact is painful.

### Getting a price in La Jolla

We quote free on site, before anything is loaded, and the number does not change afterwards. Our rates are the same everywhere we work — there is no La Jolla surcharge, and stairs, long carries and disassembly are all included.

We cover all of La Jolla, including the Village, Bird Rock, La Jolla Shores, Mount Soledad and Muirlands.

## Frequently asked questions

**Do you provide C&D recycling documentation?**  
Yes — weight tickets and diversion documentation from certified facilities. Request it when booking.

**Can you take concrete and dirt?**  
Yes, in limited volumes. Dense material is capped by weight rather than volume, so tell us what you have.

**Do you handle asbestos or lead paint?**  
No. Those require a licensed abatement contractor. We will flag suspect material rather than move it.

**Is it cheaper than a dumpster rental?**  
For one-off loads, usually yes — no permit, no delivery fee, and no skip sitting on your street for a week. For long builds with continuous debris, a dumpster often wins.
