What junk removal looks like in the hills of 94707
This ZIP covers about 1.8 square miles with a population density of roughly 7,224 people per square mile. That density means narrow streets and limited curb space, so the crew plans for parking and access on pickup day.
About 90 percent of homes here are single-family detached, and 95 percent were built before 1980. The median build year is 1938.
Older homes often have tight staircases, small doorways, and basements or attics that make hauling harder, which is why the crew handles stairs and protects walls and railings as part of every job.
With about 26 inches of rain a year and roughly 45 days of measurable precipitation, the ground stays wet for stretches. Yard debris and indoor clutter move on the same schedule here, because the weather never forces a pause.
