How fast can you get to San Marcos for yard waste?

What does yard waste cost in San Marcos?

How does San Marcos's climate affect this service?
San Marcos junk removal runs heavy on full-truck garage cleanouts in the master-planned tract communities, university-area apartment turnover near CSUSM, and pre-listing prep on the established stock around Discovery Lake and San Elijo Hills.. Inland yard waste piles build fast, avocado, eucalyptus, and citrus trimmings, plus sod tear-outs from drought-tolerant conversions.
Can't I just put it in the green bin?
If it fits, sure. The problem is palm fronds (too long), large branches (too thick), sod (too heavy), and volume that would take six weeks of weekly pickups. We're the answer when the green bin isn't enough.
Do you take logs from a tree drop?
Yes. If you want to keep the logs for firewood, we'll leave them stacked. If not, the pros haul. Rounds over 18" get split for charity firewood programs when possible.
