Does Rigo come to you?

Rigo travels up to about 50 miles from Burbank. Construction debris from unincorporated areas of LA County must go through the county's franchise haulers, so those jobs are household junk only.

BurbankHome base

Rigo's home base. From Magnolia Park bungalows to the hillside streets above the Media District, most Burbank jobs are a short drive away — which is why same-day is often possible. Many Burbank garages open onto alleys, so the truck backs right up to the door. The city's own bulky-item pickup is a good option when you can wait; when you need it gone today, or it's something the city won't take, text Rigo.

Glendale, La Crescenta & Montrose≈ 6 mi

Hillside homes with long stairs and steep driveways are common here. Send a photo of the path from the item to the street, so the price already includes the carrying.

San Fernando Valley≈ 10 mi

North Hollywood, Studio City, Sherman Oaks, Van Nuys, Sun Valley, Panorama City: flat streets, ranch houses and big backyards full of brush. Rigo's first Yelp review came from a customer in Panorama City who needed heavy items hauled out of a yard. Inside the City of Los Angeles, construction debris has its own hauling rules, so for remodel debris tell Rigo the address first.

Pasadena, Altadena & the foothills≈ 11 mi

Craftsman homes, detached garages and big trees. Garage cleanouts and yard waste are the most common jobs here. Burned material and ash from wildfires need certified hazardous-materials crews, so Rigo can't haul fire debris.

Where do my things go?

What's still usable is donated when possible; metal, cardboard, wood, concrete, mattresses and green waste go to recycling; the rest goes to permitted landfills and transfer stations.
