Morgan Hill’s garbage, recycling and organics carts belong to the city’s franchise hauler, Recology South Valley, and we do not stand in for that service. What we do is the leftovers: bags that will not close under the lid, a side yard holding warped boards and a busted chair, a garage that quietly became the dumping ground, or whatever a tenant left in the unit.
You find these heaps on older lots near downtown, along streets off Dunne and Tennant, and on rural parcels outside the city limits. One trip clears it, with no contract attached. Anything that can be donated or recycled gets that treatment first.
Trash the cart will not take
- Overflow bags and boxes
Extra bags, flattened cartons and packaging that outgrew the bin.
- Garage and side-yard heaps
Stored scrap and odds and ends leaning on a fence.
- Broken furniture
Chairs, tables and mattresses too big or too damaged for the curb.
- Fencing and yard debris
Boards, brush and green waste beyond the organics cart.
- Electronics and appliances
Items that need special handling instead of the garbage.
- Remodel and move scraps
Small project leftovers. Ask about larger loads.
Where the trash ends up
Whatever is not donated or recycled goes to a landfill or transfer station. If you ever haul it yourself, the public options near Morgan Hill are the San Martin Transfer Station on Llagas Avenue, which accepts Recology vouchers, and Kirby Canyon Landfill off Highway 101. The Morgan Hill page describes both; check the facility sites for current hours and fees, since they change.
Paint, cleaners and batteries count as household hazardous waste and stay off our truck. Santa Clara County takes them at free appointment drop-offs. Furniture and housewares in decent shape deserve a donation stop first, and the donation guide shows where.

We clear trash from homes, rentals and rural lots across Morgan Hill, from older blocks near Monterey Road to Jackson Oaks and the neighborhoods off Dunne and Tennant. Outside the city we also reach Paradise Valley, Coyote Valley and San Martin.

Typical jobs we handle
- Post-holiday overflow
Gift boxes, wrapping and an old chair stack up beside the bins, and the cart stays full for another two weeks.
- Side-yard heap
Bags, broken boards and a rusted bike lean on the fence and need to leave in one trip.
- Left-behind rental trash
A tenant moved out and left bags and an unwanted dresser in the garage. The owner wants the space clear for the next renter.

Which bucket is your pile: garbage or big stuff?
Bucket one is garbage: bags and boxes beyond what the cart holds, clutter from a cleanup, branches and green waste. Call it trash hauling or garbage removal in Morgan Hill; either way we load it and go, and yard waste removal falls in this bucket.
Bucket two is bulky junk: furniture, appliances and mattresses. Those fit our Morgan Hill junk pickup page better. Pile has both? One photo and one quote covers it.
Trash removal questions
Does this replace my weekly garbage pickup?
No. Carts in Morgan Hill are Recology South Valley's job, and we do not compete with them. We take one-time loads and what the carts will not.
Why won't my cart take all of it?
Carts have size and weight limits and refuse furniture, appliances, hazardous items and loose debris. Recology can explain your cart's rules; we handle the rest.
Do my Recology vouchers cover this?
Single-family homes get two sets of vouchers a year for trips to the San Martin Transfer Station. If you have the truck and the time, use them. Call us when the load is heavy, bulky or still inside.
Can you take bagged household trash?
Yes, as part of a one-time haul-off. We do not run a standing route, so there are no recurring pickups.
What trash is off limits?
Hazardous waste such as paint, chemicals, oil and batteries. We point you to the county's program.
I live in an apartment complex. Who do I call?
The owner or manager schedules the complex's curbside bulky collections. If a resident's pile falls outside that, text us a photo.
Do I have to drag it to the curb?
No. We carry from the garage, the yard or inside the house, so just show us where.
