What Jake hauls
Most of what people need gone falls into a few groups. If you're not sure about something, text a photo and ask.
- Couches, recliners, dressers, beds and mattresses.
- TVs, old electronics and office furniture.
- Boxes, bags and mixed clutter from garages, sheds and storage units.
How pricing works
Jake prices by the cubic yard: how much of his 12 x 8 ft trailer your stuff takes up.
- Text a photo of what needs to go and your address, or call (209) 935-2866.
- You get the price before anything starts, and nothing happens until you say yes.
- Most jobs are scheduled within a week of your call.
Hauling it yourself? Here's where it goes
For a single item or a pickup load, you can take it yourself. These two transfer stations take household junk directly:
Gilton Resource Recovery, Modesto

When it makes sense to call Jake
When it's more than one pickup load, when it's upstairs or at the back of the garage, or when you'd rather not do the lifting. Jake and his crew carry it out and load the trailer. Anything that still works gets donated, and what can't be reused is recycled where possible.
When calling Jake is the wrong call
If it's one couch and your garbage company gives you free bulky pickups, use those first. Each town page below lists what your local service already covers.
