The Problem

Craftsbury has junk options, just no easy ones

So you start asking around. Two haulers never call back, a third wants to look at it first, the Saturday drop-off window closes before you can borrow a truck, and the junk sits through another month.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

No town truck is coming for a mattress here, and there is no bulk pickup day to sign up for. The Saturday drop-off window is set up mostly for household trash and recycling, so the couch and the old dryer stay your problem, and your vehicle's.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Independent haulers price by the truckload, and the number only arrives after someone drives out, walks the pile, and does the math in front of you. You end up negotiating in your own driveway, and saying no means starting the calls over.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Reuse shops take what they can resell, which rules out anything torn, stained, water damaged, or missing hardware. Options for bulky items thin out fast in this part of Vermont, open hours are short, and you still have to deliver the good half yourself.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off needs firm level ground, a clear approach for the delivery truck, and a week of your dooryard. You still carry every piece out yourself, you pay for empty space when the job is one room, and soft spring ground does not help.

  • Per-item, predictable. First item includes the pickup fee. Every add-on is flat, no truck math, no hourly rates.
  • Locked means locked. The price at booking is what you pay. No adjustments, no surprises.

Background-checked Loaders who show up and do the work

Your Loaders handle the parts you would rather not, like a sleeper sofa down narrow farmhouse stairs or a treadmill wedged in a low-ceilinged basement. Every Loader is background checked and rated by real locals in Craftsbury after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Pick the service level that matches your load

If everything is already outside at the end of a gravel drive or stacked by the garage, curbside keeps it simple and your Loaders take it from where it sits. Choose full service when the mattress is still upstairs, the freezer is in a back shed, or the doorways and stair turns make carrying it out a two-person job.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving every road in Craftsbury, on and off Route 14

Around here, hauling your own is just what you do, right up until the load is a sleeper sofa, a chest freezer, and no truck bed long enough. Then the snow arrives and shortens the list of days that works. Your Loaders like showing up for people who handle most of it themselves and call when the math stops working.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Getting a mattress or an old dryer out of a Craftsbury house is only half the job. Where it ends up next depends on condition, so your Loaders sort for reuse, recycling, or disposal when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture, bicycles, and kitchen items still in clean, usable shape get set aside by your Loaders for a reuse or thrift option when one nearby is accepting them, without paperwork or confirmation.

  • Tax-deductible receipt by request
  • Diverts waste from landfill
  • Free up your space and help a neighbor

Visible Wear

Recycling

A torn recliner or a dead television is not donation material, but parts of it may still be recyclable. Your Loaders separate scrap metal and covered electronics for recycling where available.

  • Materials sorted and recovered
  • Diverted from landfill where possible
  • Compliant with local waste regs
See common questions
Heavily Damaged

Responsible Disposal

Waterlogged sofas, crushed hot tub shells, and mattresses past reuse are taken by your Loaders to a permitted transfer station or landfill accepting that material where available, under Vermont handling rules.

  • No logistics or transport to handle
  • No sorting or drop-off required on your end
  • Local disposal fees covered

Local Disposal Rules

The Craftsbury disposal rules most residents don't know

Burning or dumping banned material in Vermont brings fines and license penalties, so check which Craftsbury and Orleans County disposal rules apply before a cleanout starts.

Rule 01

Vermont bans recyclables, yard debris and food scraps

Act 148 makes it illegal to put mandated recyclables, leaf and yard debris, clean wood, and food scraps in the trash, which is why the Craftsbury drop-off collects recycling and food scraps alongside bagged trash.

Rule 02

Illegal dumping and burning carry fines up to $500

State and municipal officials can penalize anyone who burns household trash or dumps it in roadside ditches, swamps or open land. Violators face fines up to $500 and roadside cleanup work, with added license penalties for nonpayment.

Rule 03

Electronics recycle free statewide under Vermont E-Cycles

Electronics have been banned from Vermont landfills since 2011, but the E-Cycles program makes recycling free for households, charities, schools and small businesses with ten or fewer employees. Computers, monitors, televisions, printers and peripherals all qualify.

Rule 04

Leave the refrigerant sealed in cooling appliances

Appliances are landfill banned across Vermont, and the regional district asks that refrigerant stay sealed inside refrigerators, freezers, dehumidifiers and air conditioners so trained handlers can recover it during processing. Removing refrigerator doors first is requested for safety.

Rule 05

Clean wood and bulky debris need larger district sites

Clean wood scrap has been banned from Vermont landfills since 2016, and the Craftsbury drop-off is set up for bagged trash, recycling and organics. Loose bulky waste and most construction and demolition debris go to larger district stations.

Rule 06

Batteries can no longer go in household trash

Since July 2024, single-use and rechargeable batteries are illegal to landfill in Vermont, and collection is free statewide. Bag or tape the terminals on lithium, button cell and larger batteries first, because damaged cells start fires.

No, Craftsbury has no municipal curbside bulk pickup. Residents self-haul to the LRSWMD drop-off station at 40 Creek Road, open Saturdays 9am to 1pm, or hire a hauler. Leaving items out without a plan risks an illegal dumping violation, and Vermont sets no minimum amount for banned materials.

LoadUp junk removal in Craftsbury starts at $100, with $5 off when items sit at the curb or driveway. The first item covers the base pickup fee, and each additional item is a flat add-on, so your full total is confirmed before you book. For comparison, the LRSWMD station charges $5 per 30-gallon trash bag and $45 per mattress.

Same-day service can be limited this far into rural Orleans County, but next-day and scheduled pickups are usually open across the area. Enter your Craftsbury zip code during booking to see live dates for your address. Booking earlier in the day improves your odds of the soonest slot.

The Craftsbury drop-off on Creek Road takes bagged trash, recycling, and food scraps but not bulky loads. Large junk and construction debris go to the LRSWMD stations in Johnson, Stowe, or Worcester, and mattresses are accepted only at Johnson and Stowe at $45 each. A pickup service saves the drive if you can't haul it yourself.

Loaders try to keep usable items out of the landfill whenever possible, steering good furniture toward donation and local reuse channels like Front Porch Forum or Orleans County FreeCycle, and sending metal, electronics, and other materials to recyclers when options allow. It matters here since Vermont has just one operating landfill, in Coventry.

You pick your items online or by phone, get an upfront quote, and choose a pickup date. On pickup day your Loaders text ahead, usually about 30 minutes out, then handle all the lifting and loading. For curbside pickups you don't need to be home, just leave the junk accessible with any access notes.

Casella mainly runs subscription trash and recycling routes, not one-off item hauling, and 1-800-GOT-JUNK prices by truckload after an in-person look. LoadUp prices each item online and locks the total before anyone arrives, which helps in a rural town where sending a truck out just for an estimate isn't quick or cheap.

Household hazardous waste isn't part of a standard junk pickup and can't go in the trash under Vermont law. LRSWMD hosts free household hazardous waste collections each spring and fall for member towns, including Craftsbury. Call the district at 802-888-7317 for the next event date and the accepted items list.
