- Donation and recycling first; landfill last

Small city, strict debris rules
Santa Monica keeps a tight grip on construction and demolition waste: the city's ordinance requires C&D material to go to certified recyclers, not a mixed landfill. That matters for any job touching remodel leftovers, old fencing, or torn-out decking. The recyclable stuff gets sorted before it leaves your driveway.
Apartment turnover is the other constant. Rent-stabilized buildings north of Montana and studios near the college see steady move-outs, and building managers usually have zero tolerance for a pile staged in the lobby. We schedule around freight windows and carry everything out the same day it is quoted.
