Junk has a way of piling up until it's one more thing on the list. Book LoadUp in Dexter, see your price upfront, and get a quick pickup from local Loaders.
You search online, call around about pickup rules, leave messages with a couple of haulers, and wait on callbacks that never come. Weeks slip by, and the old couch and dead freezer are still out in the garage.
City and county pickup schedules can be a real help, but they usually limit what goes out, when it goes out, and how much of it they'll take. Many of them also expect you to carry heavy pieces out to the road yourself. That's a lot to ask with a full shed or an estate cleanout.
Plenty of haulers want to come out and look before they'll give you a number. Then the price is based on how much of the truck your stuff fills, and you're guessing at that until the load is on. You end up agreeing to a cost you can't check ahead of time.
Donation centers need things they can actually resell, so stained mattresses, broken recliners, and older appliances often get turned away. Many also leave the loading and the drive to you. If your load is part keepers and part junk, you still need a plan for the rest.
A dumpster makes sense for a roof tear-off. For a bedroom set or a few appliances, you're stuck with delivery windows, a big box sitting on your driveway or lawn for days, and whatever your neighbors decide to toss in. On top of that, you still have to lift and load everything yourself.

Around Dexter, planting and harvest keep everybody busy, and a free Saturday for a dump run is hard to come by, especially without a truck or trailer. Your Loaders lift, carry, and load the old couch, the garage overflow, or the storm limbs, and they like showing up for folks here.
Big items like couches, mattresses, and old appliances are hard to move alone, so where they end up matters in Dexter. Your Loader sorts each load by condition, favoring donation or recycling when local options allow.
Furniture and household goods in good, clean condition may be donated when local options allow. Your Loader can set those items aside for a donation drop, though any paperwork is not something to count on.
Items that are worn or damaged but still have usable materials, like metal frames or appliances, may be recycled where available. Availability near Dexter can be limited, so recycling is a goal, not a promise.
Heavily damaged, soiled, or broken bulky items that can't be donated or recycled are taken for responsible disposal. Your Loader lifts and loads them from the garage, shed, or yard, then hauls them away.
Leaving junk on property without the owner's consent is unlawful, and bulky items need a paid tag before collection under these rules for Dexter in Stoddard County.
Couches, chairs, mattresses and TVs that will not fit within regular pickup limits each need a red tag. Normal bulk pickup allows two items. The city's 2026 spring cleanup ran every Friday in April and allowed four items if residents called ahead by Thursday.
City code makes it unlawful to bring garbage, trash or refuse into Dexter to dump on any property, even if the owner agrees. It is also unlawful to leave junk on someone else's property inside the city without their consent.
The city keeps recycling trailers at several spots within city limits for drop-off. They take corrugated cardboard, newspapers, magazines, aluminum cans, glass, and plastic bottles and jugs. Each bin is marked with the material it accepts.
Dexter counts refrigerators, stoves, washers, dryers, air conditioners and hot water heaters as major appliances. Each one needs its own blue tag attached before collection. Blue tags cost $10 at City Hall or Harps Grocery Store, and counterfeit tags are unlawful.
Under Dexter's solid waste code, landlords are responsible for removing trash left by tenants, including bulk items. Furniture and other large pieces from a move-out go to the normal trash pickup spot. Clearing out a vacated rental is the owner's job.
With a red tag, regular yard waste like leaves, sticks and branches is picked up on the second and fourth Friday of each month. Bigger piles, such as cleanup after a spring storm, count as bulk yard waste. That needs a green tag, and the Street Department decides when to collect it.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Dexter starts at $75, and curbside or outdoor pickup takes $5 off. The first item includes the base pickup fee, and each additional item is a flat add-on charge. The exact total is confirmed before booking.
Sometimes, depending on Loader availability in the Dexter area. Enter your address when booking to see the open time slots. For curbside pickups you usually don't need to be home, and for indoor pickups someone should be present or leave access instructions.
Hazardous items such as paint, chemicals, batteries, and motor oil usually can't go in household trash or a hauler's load. Large bulky items may also be refused by your trash provider. Check with Dexter City Hall or Stoddard County for local drop-off options.
Loaders try to donate usable items to local charities and recycle what they can, depending on what facilities in the area will accept. Items that can't be donated or recycled go to the appropriate disposal facility. Outcomes vary by item and condition.
You pick your items and a time slot online, and you see the total before you confirm. On pickup day your Loader arrives in the scheduled window, and you point out what goes. The Loader then carries it out and loads it, and no heavy lifting is needed from you.
LoadUp prices per item online, so the total is locked before booking. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK or Junk King often price by truckload and may confirm the price on-site. Truckload pricing can suit very large cleanouts, while per-item pricing usually suits smaller jobs.
