Rates

EDCO publishes no rates online — posted at the scale or by phone. Checked October 15, 2026.

C&D diversion credit: City/County-certified mixed C&D: 67% as of Oct 15, 2026.

Rules at the gate

• Weigh in, dump inside at the spotter's direction, weigh out and pay.
• Carpet only as a separate load, for a fee: dry, tack strip and nails out, pad rolled separately.
• Put the project address and permit number on the receipt.
• Use the EDCO/SANCO driveway closest to Bob Baker Toyota.

Heads up

• Trash, brick, roofing, insulation or yard waste in the load fails EDCO's CDI rules — send it to a transfer station.
• DTSC lists SANCO as a treated-wood transfer site even though CDI loads refuse it — call.

Tip: Good for clean remodel C&D (concrete, drywall, wood, metal, tile together); pull brick and roofing first.
