Hauling and cleanouts in Hillcrest

Hillcrest and the surrounding Uptown neighborhoods are dense with apartments, condos and older homes on steep canyon streets. Most jobs involve stairs, elevators or long carries, and parking is limited, so we confirm loading spots ahead of time.

We pick up furniture and mattresses from apartments, clear condos before a sale, and haul out storage from Mission Hills homes during remodels and moves.

Hillcrest is part of the City of San Diego. See junk removal in San Diego for citywide details.
