Alameda is an island city with an old housing stock: about 35 percent of its roughly 33,000 homes were built in 1939 or earlier, and nearly half went up between 1950 and 1989. Victorian-era Italianate, Stick and Queen Anne houses and the Craftsman bungalows that followed them fill streets in the East End, the Gold Coast and the West End, Fernside was sold as a subdivision in the 1920s, and Bay Farm Island filled in with townhomes and houses from the late 1960s on. The city's own housing plan says homes this age tend to need plumbing, roof and foundation work, and that is the steady work here, along with kitchens, baths and the clean-outs that come when a house changes hands.
Alameda is also adding homes. Since 2017 its neighborhoods have produced about 60 accessory dwelling units a year, and larger projects are planned or underway at Alameda Marina, Boatworks, Encinal Terminals and Alameda Point. Island streets are a mix of narrow Victorian-era lots and wider post-war driveways, so the right bin size depends on which side of town the job is on.
Bay Farm Island is its own world. The Casitas began going up in 1966, the Islandia townhomes in 1971 and the first Harbor Bay Isle homes in 1978, so the Bay Farm side is now in its first big round of roof, siding and kitchen replacements, often inside homeowner associations with their own rules about where a container can sit. Newer neighborhoods such as Bayport, Alameda Landing and Marina Shores are young enough that most jobs there are garage clean-outs and backyard work rather than tear-outs.
We deliver across the main island and Bay Farm Island, including:
A turn-of-the-century house gets a new kitchen and bath. Interior work is not an alteration under Alameda's preservation code, but any building built before 1942 cannot be demolished without a certificate of approval from the Historical Advisory Board, so settle the demolition scope before the bin arrives.
Older Alameda homes often need foundation work. Broken concrete and soil go in an inert bin with no weight limit, and Alameda wants 95% of concrete and asphalt recycled on projects that need a waste management plan.
Alameda neighborhoods have added about 60 accessory dwelling units a year since 2017. Converting a garage means clearing it first, then hauling drywall, framing and old fixtures; a 10 or 20-yard bin fits a typical conversion.
When a long-held house changes owners, the garage, attic and yard get cleared before work starts. Furniture, boxes and yard debris go in a general bin; paint, batteries and other hazardous waste stay out.
Townhomes and houses from the late 1960s and 1970s on Bay Farm Island are getting their first full remodels. Driveways are shorter and many sit inside associations, so a 10-yard or a carefully placed 20-yard is the usual call.
Front stairs, porches and siding on a Victorian take a beating from the bay air. Replacing rotted boards is repair work, but taking down a porch or a whole structure on a pre-1942 building needs Historical Advisory Board approval first.
Sizes we actually send for the jobs we see most in Alameda. Island prices for each size are listed in the table at the top of the page, and inert bins carry no weight cap.
| Project | Size we send | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Garage or attic clean-out | 10-yard | Furniture, boxes and old storage; general bins include weight by size. |
| Kitchen or bath remodel | 20-yard | Includes 2 tons; extra weight is $150 per ton in Alameda. |
| Re-roof | 20-yard | Shingles are dense, so watch the 2-ton allowance. |
| Whole-house remodel or ADU build | 30-yard | Projects Alameda values at $100,000 or more need a waste management plan and weight tickets. |
| Foundation, driveway or patio removal | 10-yard inert | Concrete, dirt, brick and asphalt only, no weight limit; Alameda wants 95% of concrete and asphalt recycled. |
| Bay Farm townhome kitchen or bath | 10-yard | Short shared driveways; check the association's container rules first. |
Every Alameda bin we deliver goes on private property, a driveway, jobsite or private lot, and none go on the street. Alameda's code requires a permit from the Street Superintendent for building materials or equipment left on a street or sidewalk longer than 24 hours, and a bin on private property stays clear of that rule. Tell us the driveway width and any overhead wires or trees when you book, and we will confirm the size fits before delivery.
Alameda requires a Waste Management Plan for any project the city values at $100,000 or more, filed through Alameda.WasteTracking.com before the building or demolition permit is issued. Covered projects must recycle 95% of concrete and asphalt and 65% of all other construction debris. Within 30 days of finishing, the applicant submits receipts and weight tickets showing actual weights, and the city can hold the final inspection or certificate of occupancy until that is done.
Every bin that leaves Alameda crosses the scale twice at the disposal facility, and the gross, tare and net weights reach your inbox after pickup along with photos of the load. Questions about what goes in which bin? Call (510) 900-4664.
Alameda bins dispatch from our yard at 22990 Clawiter Rd in Hayward and reach the island via I-880 in about 20 to 25 minutes, depending on traffic.
