Haul-away and disposal in Beach Haven West

Beach Haven West homeowners ask about haul-away and disposal more than you'd think.

What homeowners tend to describe

• More volume than a car-load of trips to the recycling centre would clear
• Debris left after your own pruning, a project, or a blow
• A pile you raked yourself with no way to move it

Why this comes up in Beach Haven West

Here's what makes Beach Haven West particular: sparse canopy on the lots themselves, but the wind carries leaves in off the mainland and they collect against fences, bulkheads and under raised houses.

Single-storey ranches and raised post-Sandy rebuilds on compact lagoon lots, most with a bulkhead and little room behind the house.

Getting the work done in Beach Haven West

Narrow streets and tight lots. A truck often cannot get past the driveway, so material is carried rather than driven out — the main thing that moves the price up here.

Any permit for this runs through Stafford Township. State registration has to be current before one is issued.

What actually happens on site

Loaded and taken away, whether a crew cleared it or you did. Leaves, bags, brush, cuttings and whatever else the collection would not take goes on the truck in one visit and to the county facility on Haywood Road, which is where it is composted rather than landfilled. Charged on volume, which is why an oak-heavy lot costs more to haul than it does to clear.

$100 – $300 — typical range, not a quote. What your home needs can only be settled by a registered contractor who comes out and looks at it.

The right answer depends on your specific property, which is why someone has to come out and look.
