El Cerrito climbs from the bungalow blocks along San Pablo Ave up into the hillside streets below the Arlington (Mira Vista, St. Jerome's and the streets off Contra Costa Dr), where driveways are short, sloped and often stacked above the road. The residential work is 1920s–50s homes being remodeled, foundations and seismic work, ADUs, and defensible-space clearing on the parcels near Arlington Blvd that sit in the state's very high fire-hazard zone.
Along San Pablo Ave the city is adding apartments block by block, and the El Cerrito Plaza BART site is becoming 743 homes in phases, with the first 70 under construction since late 2025. We dispatch El Cerrito from Hayward up I-880 and I-580, about 35 minutes, on the same route as Berkeley, Albany and Richmond, and we place bins on private property: a driveway, side yard, jobsite or private lot.
Same-day delivery across El Cerrito, from the bungalow blocks along San Pablo Ave to Mira Vista and the hillside streets below the Arlington.
1920s–50s homes on the slope mean plaster, old framing and foundation concrete. A 10 or 20-yard on the driveway for the house, an inert bin for the concrete.
San Pablo Ave and the Plaza BART area are adding hundreds of homes. Jobsite bins on a swap schedule, concrete and dirt in inert bins with no weight limit.
Backyard units are common on El Cerrito lots. Phase the bins across demo, framing and finish.
Brush and limbs from defensible-space work go in a general bin as yard waste; narrow hill streets favor a 10 or 20-yard.
Sizes we actually send for the jobs we see most in El Cerrito. El Cerrito pricing by size is in the table at the top of this page; inert bins carry no weight limit.
| Project | Size we send | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Hillside kitchen or bath | 10 or 20-yard | The size that levels out safely on a short, sloped driveway. |
| Whole-house remodel | 20-yard, swapped | A 30 or 40 usually cannot turn in on the hill. |
| Foundation or seismic work | 10-yard inert + 20-yard general | Concrete in the inert bin with no weight limit; framing in the general bin. |
| Apartment or mixed-use jobsite (San Pablo Ave) | 30 or 40-yard on a swap schedule | Concrete and dirt in inert bins. |
| Fire-zone brush clearing | 10 or 20-yard | Yard waste in a general bin; keep soil and rock out. |
El Cerrito climbs from the flats along San Pablo Ave up into steep hillside streets toward the Arlington and the ridge. On the hill, driveways are short, sloped, and often stacked above the street, so a 10 or 20-yard bin places safely where a 40-yard can't turn or level out; tell us the grade when you book. Down in the flats, older bungalow lots have narrow driveways where a 20-yard is usually the practical maximum. We place bins on private property in El Cerrito, such as a driveway, side yard, jobsite or private lot, and never on the street.
El Cerrito follows the CALGreen 65% recycling requirement for new residential construction, additions or alterations of 1,000 square feet or more, residential projects of $50,000 or more (roof-only work excluded) and all non-residential work, with a Green Halo account and waste management plan opened at application. Separate inert and general bins make the number reachable, and we provide a weight receipt per load for the file.
Your El Cerrito load is weighed in and out of the facility; the receipt showing gross, tare and net weight is emailed after pickup along with photos. Questions about what goes in which bin? Call (510) 900-4664.
