Dumpster Rentals for Waste Hauling & Removal in San Diego, CA & Surrounding Areas
Debris Box makes it easy to get rid of trash, junk, waste and debris of all types. Offering waste hauling and commercial junk removal services in San Diego, as well as the areas of Alpine, Bonita, La Jolla and Lakeside in California, we help you keep your space clean. Rent A Dumpster – Fill it with Trash/Junk & We Will Pick It Up!
Rock, Concrete & Asphalt
These materials can be ground up and used as aggregate in concrete or as road base. We can legally haul up to 10 tons. These loads may not include trash, vegetation (including roots), plastic liner, wood, etc. The unwanted materials may result in a clean-up fee that may be more than the original agreed upon price; these materials may also result in the load being treated as a trash load which may double the recycle price.
Green Loads
Tree trimmings and yard waste are ground up and used as mulch.
Unacceptable items include:
- Trash,
- Root balls,
- Succulents (examples include ice plant, jade & cactus),
- Fibrous trees and plants because they don’t grind up well (examples include palm trees, coral tree, palm fronds & yucca)
- Trunks greater than 4 feet in length,
- Processed wood,
- Dirt
Wood Loads
Lumber may be recycled. Incidental nails and bolts are acceptable. Restrictions include:
- No paint, varnish, stain or other treatment of the lumber.
- No composite lumber such as plywood or fiberboard. The glue used in these products make them non-recyclable.
- No metal hardware such as hinges, elbows, bracket, etc.
Metal Loads
Metals can be recycled as long as they are free of trash. We charge a haul rate and refund or credit your account for the proceeds of the metal sale (supported by a copy of the recycler’s receipt). Mixed metals usually receive a lower price per ton than separated metals.
Sod Loads
Sod is the top layer of grass, roots and incidental dirt. Sod may be recycle if there is no trash.

Businesses throughout San Diego County routinely go through a process of modernization of technical and computer equipment. In order to meet the rigorous demands of a global marketplace, companies must continuously invest in faster computers, higher-resolution video monitors and other devices that can increase employee efficiency and overall performance. When companies modernize and upgrade equipment they must also remove out-dated equipment from their facilities. With California law strictly prohibiting the unlawful disposal of electrical waste, San Diego Electronics Recycling can offer the e-waste solution by providing reliable collection of electrical systems such as:
- scanners
- cellular phones
- video monitors
- lap tops
- CPUs
- hard drives
- computers
- servers
San Diego Electronics Recycling takes every precaution to carefully collect e-waste, and then utilizes the most basic principles of eco-friendly behaviors: reuse or recycle. After collecting e-waste from a business free of charge, San Diego Electronics Recycling will first try and find other businesses, charities or non-profit organizations that could simply reuse the collected electrical equipment. If the equipment is in poor shape and cannot be reused, San Diego Electronics Recycling will then proceed to safely recycle the potentially hazardous and toxic material and electrical components.
Collection of computers, servers and other business electrical devices is a free service offered exclusively to businesses throughout San Diego County and neighboring areas in Southern California.
With your help combined with the free collection services of San Diego Electrical Recycling, we can work together and contribute to making San Diego County clean and free of hazardous e-waste.
