Midtown jobs we handle
Furniture out of walk-up apartments and old Victorians split into units, plus the odd office downtown. Beds, loveseats, futons, dining sets and desks, carried down the stairs by our crew.
Midtown pricing
One small item starts at $74 and a standard pickup at $149. Mention the stairs so the quote covers them. You pay after it's down and hauled. Fuel is included, and our neighbors never see a travel surcharge.

Midtown and Downtown

Right down the street.

Midtown is where we're based, and it shapes how we work here.

Discard is based right here in Midtown, so a job here is usually a few blocks' drive for us. Since early 2024 we've finished 20 jobs in 95811 and 38 in 95814, which takes in Downtown and the west side of Midtown.

Midtown jobs are their own thing. A lot of people live in older houses that were split into apartments, or in walk-ups with no elevator, so most of the work is carrying things down a flight or two. Parking is usually on the street or in the alley, and we plan the truck around that. If there's a driveway, a loading zone or a back gate we can use, tell us when you book and we'll come in that way.

Most of what we haul here is furniture from people moving in, moving out or downsizing. Beds and box springs, loveseats, futons, dining sets, desks. We also get the odd one-off, like old lumber from a skate ramp or a commercial fridge.

Downtown has more office work. We've cleared out cubicles, desks and whole offices, usually after a walk-through first so the quote is right.

City pickup vs. Discard

The city pickup vs. a crew that carries.

Midtown and Downtown get the City of Sacramento's household junk pickup. Here's the catch.

  • The city's rules: two pickups a year, only between February and October, and the pile has to fit in about 4 by 4 by 9 feet.
  • It has to be at the curb, which is a lot to ask when you're on the second floor and your block is all street parking.
  • We carry it: we go up the stairs, bring it down, and haul it off, any month of the year and often the same day.

Single items start at $74. Standard pickups start at $149. Your price covers the labor, the haul, the dump fees and a quick sweep afterward.

Where it goes

Where Midtown junk ends up.

We sort it on the truck. About 45% of everything we haul is donated or recycled.

  • Usable furniture gets donated when someone can take it.
  • Mattresses and box springs go to Bye Bye Mattress for recycling.
  • Office electronics and TVs are recycled as e-waste, and fridges and metal go to scrap recycling.
  • The rest goes to the North Area Recovery Station in North Highlands.
  • Paint and chemicals we can't take.
Transparent pricing

The price you see is the price you pay.

"I’ve used discard junk twice now, I met the owner a few years ago when I was walking my dog in midtown, they are very flexible and accommodating when scheduling, pricing is very fair and they get the job done quickly. I will continue to use them for any future needs."

"I had a great experience with this company. Their pricing was reasonable, and I really appreciated that the quote was upfront with no surprises. They also sent reminders before arrival to make sure I was ready, which made the process smooth and stress-free. Communication was excellent throughout — they were responsive, respectful, and professional. On top of that, the service was very quick and efficient. Overall, they made the whole experience easy and convenient. I would definitely recommend them to others and would absolutely use their service again in the future!"
