Junk has a way of piling up until it's one more thing on your list. Book a quick LoadUp pickup in Catheys Valley, see your price upfront, and get your space back.
You search for options, call the county, leave messages with haulers who never call back, and wait on a quote that never comes. Weeks later, the pile behind the shed hasn't moved.
Free scheduled bulk pickup is common in incorporated towns, but it isn't always offered in unincorporated communities like this one. Even where it exists, programs tend to limit item types and quantities, and hauling everything to a disposal site yourself means a long drive.
Many haulers want to walk the property before naming a price, and on a spread-out lot that can mean waiting days for someone to show. Then the quote comes in by fractions of a truckload, and the final number can shift once loading starts.
Thrift and donation sites only accept items in good, resellable shape, so a sun-faded patio set or a water-stained recliner from the barn usually gets turned away. Even usable pieces still need loading, a drive into town, and someone to unload them.
A roll-off container makes sense for a full teardown, but clearing out a spare room or one outbuilding rarely fills it. You still do all the lifting yourself, coordinate drop-off and pickup dates, and find level ground the delivery truck can actually reach.

Pulling a rusted woodstove out of a cramped detached shed takes care, and your Loaders do all the lifting. Each one is background-checked and rated by real locals in Catheys Valley after each job.
If you can get the load to the end of your driveway or beside the house, curbside pickup keeps things simple. When it's still in a back bedroom, a crawl space, or a workshop across the property, choose full-service and your Loaders will carry it out for you.

Out here, the trip to the dump can swallow a whole day, and that's before you've wrestled a pile of old barn lumber into the truck bed. Catheys Valley properties run long and the driveways run longer. Your Loaders do the lifting and loading, and they genuinely like showing up for neighbors like you.
Hauling a load out of Catheys Valley often means a long trip with a full truck, so where items end up matters. Your Loader sorts by condition, favoring donation or recycling when local options allow.
Furniture, tools, and household goods in good, clean shape may be set aside for donation when local options allow. Your Loader handles the lifting, and availability depends on what nearby organizations will accept.
Items that are worn or damaged but still have usable materials, like scrap metal or certain electronics, may be recycled where available. Acceptance varies, so recycling is never guaranteed for every item.
Heavily damaged, soiled, or broken bulky items that can't be donated or recycled are loaded by your Loader and taken to an appropriate disposal site. Mariposa County options are limited, so sites are confirmed locally.
Missing a narrow transfer station window or mixing recyclables at the wrong site can waste a trip, so here is what applies in Catheys Valley and Mariposa County.
California classifies items like batteries, fluorescent lamps, and electronic devices as universal waste that cannot go in the garbage. Mariposa County accepts u-waste in limited quantities at the landfill and the Don Pedro Transfer Station during regular hours, with minimal fees on some items.
State law requires homes in fire-prone foothill areas to maintain defensible space. Burning the resulting brush is subject to CAL FIRE permits and seasonal burn suspensions, burning household trash is banned statewide, and the county landfill site runs a compost facility.
The county's Hornitos Transfer Station opens only on the first and third Saturday mornings, and every county transfer station closes on holidays. Coulterville and Fish Camp are also Saturday-only, so missing a window can mean a longer drive to the landfill north of Mariposa.
Mariposa County has no vendor accepting co-mingled recyclables, so cardboard and chipboard like cereal boxes must be sorted at the Landfill and Recycling Center, though transfer stations take them mixed. Even a little wrong material can send a whole load to landfill.
In May 2024 the Mariposa County Board of Supervisors approved a fee schedule raising common disposal fees by 50 percent on July 1, 2024, and again on July 1, 2025, with further scheduled steps. Checking the current posted schedule before self-hauling avoids surprises.
Mariposa County lists the landfill and recycle center, NAPA Auto Parts, the Mariposa-Yosemite Airport, and Greeley Hill True Value as drop-off points for used oil and oil filters. California regulates used oil as hazardous waste, so it never belongs in the garbage.

(678) 884-4738No. Dumping junk on roadsides or private land without permission counts as illegal dumping under California law, and Mariposa County can cite it. The legal options are self-hauling to a county transfer station or landfill, or hiring a hauler.
LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Catheys Valley starts at $75, and curbside or outdoor pickup takes a flat $5 off. The first item includes the base pickup fee, each additional item is a flat add-on charge, and the exact total is confirmed before booking.
Sometimes, but it depends on Loader availability for your address and the time you book. Rural areas along Highway 140 can have fewer open slots, so entering your address during booking shows the real availability. Next-day is often easier to get.
The Don Pedro Transfer Station at 9729 Merced Falls Road is nearby, open Thursdays and Saturdays 9 am to 2 pm, phone 209-852-9692. Fees apply, and the hours are limited. Batteries and hazardous items go to the Mariposa County Landfill instead, at 209-966-5165.
Loaders aim to donate usable items and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance at local charities and recyclers. Whatever can't be reused or recycled is taken to an appropriate disposal facility. Outcomes vary by item condition.
Not for curbside or outdoor pickups. You can leave items in an accessible spot and add access notes at booking. For items inside the house or barn, someone should be there or you can leave clear access instructions. Gate codes are worth including on ranch properties.
The main differences are pricing and booking. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King usually price by truckload and may confirm the price on site. LoadUp prices per item online and confirms the total before booking. For big cleanouts, a truckload hauler can be a better fit.
