The Problem

Getting junk out of a Drexel Hill basement is harder than it looks

You check the township website, call a few haulers, and wait on callbacks that never come. One quote arrives vague, another wants a site visit next week. Meanwhile the pile in your basement hasn't moved.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Township bulk collection can be a good deal if your items qualify and your timing lines up. But rules on what's accepted, how to request a pickup, and how often it runs can change. And you still have to get everything out to the curb yourself.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers won't quote until someone comes out to look, and their truckload pricing is hard to judge ahead of time. Then you hope the final number matches what you heard, and that the crew actually shows up when they said they would.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers need items they can actually resell, so stained upholstery, worn mattresses, and broken furniture usually get turned away. Even the good pieces still need loading and driving over, and whatever gets rejected comes back home with you.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container takes up your driveway or street frontage for days, may need a township permit, and depends on the delivery schedule. On a row of tightly spaced twins, that's a lot of disruption to empty out one spare room.

Vetted Loaders for older Upper Darby Township homes

Narrow, steep basement stairs in older homes mean your Loaders carry heavy items up and out carefully. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Drexel Hill after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders

Pickup Options

Set it at the curb or leave it where it sits

If the old grill and stacked boxes are already at the end of your driveway, curbside pickup keeps things simple. For a twin home's attic or a detached garage packed with decades of tools, full-service lets your Loaders carry everything out from inside.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Drexel Hill and all of Upper Darby Township

Nobody is getting a box spring onto a SEPTA bus bound for 69th Street, and a full basement does not empty itself between commutes into Philadelphia. Your Loaders handle the lifting, carrying, and loading, so your weekend stays yours. Showing up for neighbors here is the part of the job they like best.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Decades of basement and attic belongings rarely end up in one condition, which is why where items go after pickup matters in Drexel Hill. Your Loaders sort by condition, so usable pieces may be donated and the rest handled responsibly.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household goods that are clean and in good shape may be donated when possible and where available. Your Loaders set those pieces aside, though a donation outcome is never guaranteed.

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

Visible Wear

Recycling

Items that are worn or damaged but not suited for donation may be recycled when local options allow. Metal frames, some appliances, and electronics can have special handling needs, so availability varies.

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

Responsible Disposal

Bulky items that are heavily damaged, soiled, or contaminated are disposed of responsibly once reuse and recycling are ruled out. Your Loaders carry them out and load them for proper disposal.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Drexel Hill disposal rules most residents don't know

If you put out the wrong item, it stays at your curb, or worse, you break Pennsylvania law. These rules apply to Drexel Hill homes in Upper Darby Township, Delaware County.

Rule 01

Move-out and home sale cleanouts are excluded from township pickup

Upper Darby Township will not collect residential cleanouts tied to selling a property or the end of a rental lease. Regular collection is meant for routine household trash. Clearing out a whole house before a closing or move-out needs a different way to get rid of it.

Rule 02

Pennsylvania bans TVs and computers from household trash

Pennsylvania's Covered Device Recycling Act bans putting televisions, desktop computers, laptops, computer monitors, computer peripherals like keyboards and printers, and e-readers in regular trash. These devices have to go to a recycling program so their materials stay out of landfills.

Rule 03

Rainwater counts toward the 40-pound trash can limit

Upper Darby Township limits each trash can to 40 pounds, can and contents combined, and rainwater that collects during heavy storms counts too. The township suggests punching drainage holes in the bottom of the can. Each household pickup is capped at 200 pounds total.

Rule 04

Furnaces, boilers, and oil tanks stay off the curb

Upper Darby Township's bulk program does not take furnaces, boilers, oil tanks, gas tanks, or metal drums. If you replace an aging heating system before a Delaware County winter, you'll need to plan a separate way to get rid of the old equipment.

Rule 05

Refrigerators and air conditioners require a paid bulk request

Large metal appliances go through the township's bulk pickup program for $20 per item. These include refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers, washers, dryers, and hot water heaters. You request a pickup from the Department of Public Works on the township's online form.

Rule 06

Bricks, concrete, and dirt are not township collection items

Upper Darby Township will not take dirt, rocks, concrete, or bricks. It also refuses residential contractor and landscape contractor materials or debris of any kind. Leftovers from tearing out a patio, regrading a yard, or renovating fall outside township collection.

Not unless it's regular trash set out under Upper Darby Township's collection rules. Drexel Hill is served by the Township, so extra bulky junk left at the curb without arranging pickup can be treated as illegal dumping. Call the Township to confirm what your hauler takes.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Drexel Hill starts at $80, and curbside pickup takes $5 off. The first item includes the base pickup fee, each additional item is a flat add-on, and the exact total is confirmed before booking. Traditional haulers usually charge by truckload.

Same-day pickup is sometimes available depending on the schedule in your area. Enter your address during booking to see real-time openings. Curbside items don't need anyone home, and for indoor pickups you can leave access instructions if you won't be there.

The Township's paid bulk pickup is $20 per item and covers metal household items like washers, dryers, refrigerators, filing cabinets and metal shelving. Hazardous and construction materials are excluded. Delaware County's Solid Waste Authority, (610) 892-9627, handles hazardous waste events.

Loaders aim to donate usable items to local charities and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance. Items that can't be reused or recycled go to licensed disposal sites. Outcomes vary by item condition and what local facilities will take.

Get a price online or by texting a photo of your items, then pick an arrival window. The price is confirmed before booking. On pickup day your Loader typically calls ahead, then removes the items and hauls them away.

For a single metal appliance or filing cabinet, yes. The Township's $20 per item fee is hard to beat. A private service makes more sense for furniture, mixed loads, items the Township excludes, or when you need removal from inside your home.
