The Problem

Davenport has junk options, just not good ones

You search online, call the city, wait on hold, and request a few hauler quotes. One calls back, two never do. Meanwhile, weeks slip by and the junk sits right where it was, still taking up space.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

City bulk pickup programs work well for a single couch at the curb. The catch is that you usually have to schedule ahead, follow item rules, and haul everything to the curb yourself. Some items aren't accepted, and big cleanouts rarely fit the limits.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come out and see your stuff before they'll give you a price, so you take time off just to get an estimate. Then the quote is by fractions of a truckload, and you won't know the real total until the truck is already loaded.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers have to be choosy, and they should be. Stained upholstery, worn mattresses, and broken appliances often get turned away. Even when they take your items, you still have to load them up and drive them over yourself.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off sounds simple until you're arranging delivery windows, checking whether you need a permit for street placement, and taking up your driveway for a week. You still do all the lifting, and neighbors may start tossing their own junk in.

What sets us apart

Your price is locked before pickup day

Most companies charge by truck space, and the price often changes on arrival. LoadUp charges by item, based on exactly what you're removing.

  • 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.
  • No-obligation quotes. Big job or full cleanout? Text a photo for a guaranteed price first.

Loaders who treat your home like a neighbor would

Your Loaders carry heavy pieces up steep, narrow basement stairs and around the tight corners of a packed detached garage. Each is background-checked and rated by real locals in Davenport after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Set it out front or have it carried out

If the old recliner is already on your driveway or at the foot of your front steps, curbside is the simpler fit. On Davenport's hillier blocks, where homes can sit above long flights of steps and upstairs duplex units are common, full-service lets your Loaders carry everything out from wherever it sits.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Davenport, from the I-80 corridor down to the river

Nobody plans a mattress run for a July afternoon when the Iowa humidity feels like wet laundry, or a January morning when the wind chill bites your knuckles. Weather like that makes a dump trip worse. Your Loaders handle the lifting and loading, and they genuinely like showing up for Davenport neighbors, whatever the forecast says.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items rarely end up in the same place, and in Davenport the right destination depends on condition. Your Loader sorts what they can for donation or recycling when possible, and the rest is disposed of responsibly.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household goods in good, clean condition may be donated when possible and when local options allow. Your Loader will try to set aside items that still have useful life.

  • Tax-deductible receipt by request
  • Diverts waste from landfill
  • Free up your space and help a neighbor
See donation pickup
Visible Wear

Recycling

Items that are worn or damaged but not donatable may be recycled where available. Your Loader will try to separate metal, cardboard, and other reusable materials from what can't be reused.

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

Responsible Disposal

Heavily damaged, soiled, or broken bulky pieces like ruined mattresses or collapsed sofas go to an appropriate local disposal site. Your Loader handles the lifting and loading, so you don't have to.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Davenport disposal rules most residents don't know

Illegal dumping in Davenport can bring fines from hundreds to several thousand dollars, and these rules show how Davenport and Scott County expect household junk handled instead.

Rule 01

Indoor furniture left in the yard counts as accumulated debris

Ordinance 8.14 treats non-outdoor furniture sitting in a yard as accumulated debris. Couches and similar bulky waste go out every other week on your recycling day, set out no earlier than 7 p.m. the night before and by 6:30 a.m.

Rule 02

Small electronics are not picked up at the curb

City curbside e-waste collection is limited to large items such as TVs set outside the garbage cart. Calculators, game systems, DVD players and VCRs are recyclable, but residents must take them directly to the Waste Commission of Scott County's Electronics Recovery Facility.

Rule 03

Apartment buildings over three units fall outside city curbside service

Davenport's curbside service, including bulky waste pickup, covers single-family homes through three-plexes. Larger apartment buildings and businesses without city garbage collection are directed to the Scott Area Landfill, run by the Waste Commission of Scott County, for disposal.

Rule 04

Curbside yard waste pauses in winter, but the compost site doesn't

Davenport collects yard waste curbside weekly only from the first full week of April through the first full week of January. The Compost Facility accepts yard waste year-round, and logs or limbs over 6 inches in diameter can be dropped off there free.

Rule 05

Overflow garbage bags need a sticker and four feet of space

Extra bags beside the cart must carry a garbage sticker facing the street, be no larger than 33 gallons or heavier than 50 pounds, and sit at least 4 feet from the cart so the truck's robotic arm can reach it.

Rule 06

Big move-out piles can go through a special excess waste call

Residents who are moving or decluttering can request a Special Call for Service that allows up to 5 cubic yards of waste, about 80 33-gallon bags or one large pickup truck load, collected for a set city fee.

Not without checking your hauler's rules first. Bulky items set out with no arrangement can be treated as illegal dumping, and Davenport's regular trash service is not a cleanout service. Confirm large-item handling with the City of Davenport or your trash hauler before setting anything out.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Davenport starts at $85 for a single item, and curbside or driveway pickup takes $5 off. The first item includes the base pickup fee and each additional item is a flat add-on, with the exact total confirmed before booking.

Often, yes. Same-day or next-day pickup is offered when you book before 2PM, depending on Loader availability for your address. Enter your address during booking to see live openings. Curbside pickups don't require anyone to be home, but in-home jobs need access.

Scott County residents can use the Waste Commission's Regional Collection Center at 5650 Carey Ave in Davenport for household hazardous materials and electronics. The Scott Area Landfill also takes single electronics, motor oil and car batteries. Paint, chemicals and similar items should not go in a junk load.

Loaders aim to donate usable items and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance, and try to avoid the landfill. Items that can't be donated or recycled go to an appropriate disposal facility, such as the Scott Area Landfill. Outcomes vary by item and condition.

You describe your items and location online, pick curbside or in-home pickup, and see your price before you confirm. On pickup day, Loaders arrive in your window, load the items and haul them away. Large cleanouts of a garage or basement may need an on-site estimate.

Sometimes. If you have a truck and a small load, the landfill on County Road Y-48 south of Highway 61 can cost less, though you handle the lifting, loading, and fees. For heavy or bulky items, or if you lack a vehicle, a hauler saves time and effort.
