Deck & Fence Debris · Carmichael
Deck and Fence Removal in Carmichael
The new fence is up. The old one is lying along the side of the house in a heap of weathered boards and concrete-footed posts, and the County’s bulky crew won’t touch it because it’s treated wood. We will. Debris is $120 per cubic yard, and a big pile prices as half a truck at $431.
Big Lots Along the American River
Carmichael is home to 76,948 people, many on large lots along the American River, with a typical house built around 1972. Big lots mean long fence lines, backyard decks and sheds — all of which eventually get replaced.
Carmichael is unincorporated, so Sacramento County’s bulky rules apply, and those rules exclude treated wood such as fence posts and decking.

After the Contractor Leaves

Boards, joists and railings from a removed deck, loaded from the backyard — nothing has to be dragged out front.
Carmichael Debris FAQs
Why won’t the County take my old fence?
Sacramento County’s bulky program excludes treated wood, including fence posts and decking, so it has to go another way.
How much does it cost to haul an old deck in Carmichael?
Loose debris is $120 per cubic yard; most decks fit in a quarter truck at $241 or half a truck at $431.
Do you tear the deck out?
No. We haul the material once it’s been removed; the demolition is you or your contractor.
Can you load from the backyard?
Yes. The crew carries it through the side gate to the truck.
Old Fence Still Lying There?
One photo of the pile — the flat price comes right back.
