Dominic does yard debris removal in Reno and across the Reno-Tahoe area, hauling off what's left behind after a big day of yard work. Text a photo to (775) 316-7470 to get the pile priced. The pile sits outside, by the back fence or down the side yard, and it's usually a mix of green waste and yard junk that spent years out in the weather.

When the tree is still standing, the job is small tree removal instead. When a whole lot is overgrown and the brush still has to come off the ground, that's land clearing. If it's already cut, raked or pulled and you just want it gone, that's this job.

He owns Reno Tahoe Junk Removal, in business since 2023, and holds 5.0 stars across 22 reviews on Google. His own line is "No job too big or too small." Three bags of leaves by the gate get the same answer as a corner of the lot buried in brush. He answers the phone any time, day or night, so you can send the photo as soon as the last bag is tied.

From the full list of what goes on the truck: yard waste, trees and land.

What usually ends up in a yard debris pile?

Cut branches, brush and bagged leaves make up most of it. After that it's whatever the yard work turned up. Pulled shrubs with the root balls still on. Old sod rolled up along the fence. Rotted boards from a raised bed, a cracked planter, a stack of broken pavers. A lot of piles also carry junk that spent years outside, like a rusted patio set, a dead mower or a hose reel that finally quit.

Maybe you just finished a big cleanup, or the yard at your rental went wild between tenants. Either way, the cutting and raking are already done, and the only thing left is getting the pile off the property.

Where does the brush and yard waste go once it's hauled?

Usable yard junk goes to Goodwill, metal goes to a scrap yard to be recycled, and the real trash from the job goes to the Stead landfill or the Carson City landfill.

A patio table that still stands, or garden tools with some life left in them, are the usable part. The rusted chairs, the old wheelbarrow tub and the bent posts are the metal. If the garden shed has leftover paint in it, that goes to Greymar for disposal. You don't have to split anything into piles before he gets there. For anything beyond brush and clippings, the full rundown of what he takes has it.

How much does yard debris removal cost in Reno?

Jobs start at $80. Past that, the price comes from how much room the pile takes on the truck. Dominic hauls with a silver Ford pickup towing a black Texas Pride dump trailer, 16 feet by 7 feet with 4 foot sides, and loose branches leave a lot of air between them, so brush fills that space faster than most loads. Brush that's been cut short and stacked tight takes less room than branches thrown in a heap.

You send a photo of the pile and get a quote for the whole job. Take it from a few steps back so the whole pile shows, the part behind the shed included. Loading, hauling and disposal are inside that number, and dump fees never show up as a separate charge. The quote holds unless the job turns out bigger than the photo showed. For a big yard that won't fit in one shot, he can come out and quote it in person. You can pay with cash, credit or debit card, Venmo, Zelle or check.

Do you have to drag the branches out to the street first?

No. Leave the pile in the back corner or along the side of the house. He loads it from there, so nobody drags thorny limbs through the garage.

Before loading, he walks you through the pile and the work. When the last branch is on the trailer, he cleans up the spot where it sat and does a final walkthrough with you. If you manage the rental, you can send the photos and set the day the same way.

Does he haul yard debris from the lake or out in the valleys?

Yes. He drives up to 75 miles for a job, so a yard at the lake in Incline Village or out in Fallon is in range. Gardnerville, Dayton and Washoe Valley are covered too. The towns he hauls from has the rest.

Timing matters on a weekend yard project. If you're cutting back the yard over a weekend, plan the pickup for Saturday or the start of the week. A pile stacked on Sunday afternoon goes out Monday at the earliest, since he's closed Sunday.

“Dom is professional and honest. He hauled all our tree branches and more for a reasonable price. His fees are more than fair - got the job done way under another quote. Left the area completely clean, too.”

“Dominic’s service was top tier. Within an hour of calling him, he was at my house and ready to haul off the multitudes of junk including the rusty spool of wire left by previous owners, saving our puppy from an inevitable tetanus shot. They can’t be beat on price and they also provide services like snow removal and holiday light decorating. My husband is already looking in to their Christmas lights service. You can’t go wrong hiring these efficient professionals.”
