A North Hollywood family business

Since 2019

“This team did an outstanding job!”

Who we are

Ricardo Diaz started Legacy Junk Removal in 2019, working out of North Hollywood. The yard is still on Victory Blvd. A family business: Ricardo works alongside his dad and his brother, with a crew customers know by name: Brian, Carlos and Rene.

Most of our work comes from the same few miles: the east and central San Fernando Valley, Burbank and the neighborhoods just over the hill. Staying close is how we can answer the phone, send a price from a photo, and often show up the same day.

You'll see our trucks and trailers around the Valley: black, yellow, and hard to miss.

How we work, in customers' words

  • Picks up the phone

    “Got a call back from Ricardo immediately after placing online request.” Stacy O.

  • Texts before arriving

    “They gave me a 2 hr service window and texted me 20 min before their arrival.” Janet S.

  • Sweeps up

    “They even finished by sweeping up the remaining debris.” Steve H.

  • Charges what they quoted

    “No hidden fees or overages.” Michelle M.

What happens to your stuff

We donate items that are in fair shape so they get a second life, and recycle what we can. When your items are donated, you'll get a donation receipt from the drop-off location within 14 business days. The rest is hauled away for disposal.

We can't promise that any particular item will be donated. Charities turn down a lot of furniture, and some things break on the way out. If donation matters to you, tell us before we load, and we'll be straight with you about what's likely.

We're a paid service

If you live in the City of Los Angeles and can wait, LA Sanitation picks up bulky items for free. Burbank, Glendale and Pasadena run their own programs. We're for when you want it gone now, carried out for you, or it's more than the city will take. See how our pricing works.
