Sherman Oaks is over the hill in the Valley, and the city plans it with Studio City, Toluca Lake and Cahuenga Pass in one community plan area. The crew covers Sherman Oaks. Text a photo to (626) 590-3118.
The flats and the hillside streets are two different jobs. The Van Nuys Sherman Oaks Recreation Center sits on Huston Street, and the blocks around it are level, while the houses climbing toward the ridge can mean stairs down to the road. Stairs are the thing the photo has to show.
A self haul is awkward from here. The city transfer station will not take hazardous materials, liquids or construction debris, and at the hazardous waste drop offs you are asked for the address the waste came from. The remodel pile is the part of that the team takes, and construction debris removal covers it off one photo. The city keeps no active landfill inside its limits, so household waste runs out to a transfer station, and that station does take bulky items from residents as well as from permitted haulers. It is a long drive with a loaded trailer and a wait at the far end. One photo and Precise Junk Removal does the driving.
How Bulky Item Pickup works
- Bulky items are collected on your regular trash day, and you have to let the city know at least one business day before your normal collection.
- A bulky item is anything non-hazardous you want to get rid of that is too large to fit in your black trash bin.
- Think about donating before you schedule a pickup.
- Furniture such as couches, tables and chairs is taken.
- Mattresses and box springs are taken.
- Carpet is taken, rolled and tied.
- Automotive parts and used oil are not picked up at the curb.
- Construction materials such as concrete, bricks and dirt are not picked up at the curb.
- Paints, solvents and chemicals are not picked up at the curb.

“Angel and Cecilia really came through for me when I was in a bind. I needed help getting a heavy leather couch out to the curb for the city's bulky item pickup. They showed up on time and were friendly. I'm so grateful for their help and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Precise Junk Removal.”
“I had a great experience with Precise Junk Removal. Angel was very professional, timely and offered a reasonable price. I wouldn't hesitate to use their service again.”

We needed to quickly get rid of trash following a move out, and Angel was at our house within an hour to provide a quote. He was very reasonable with pricing (text truncated by Google's "More" link on the limited view)”
