The Problem

Getting rid of junk in Dunkirk takes more than it should

You look up town and county rules, call a few haulers, and wait on quotes that sometimes never come back. Weeks go by, and the junk is still in the garage or the shed.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Free pickup is a city service, and a town like Dunkirk doesn't usually run its own program the way nearby cities do. Even where pickup exists, it covers a short list of items on a fixed schedule, and appliances, electronics, and renovation debris often aren't on it.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come out and look before they give you a number, and that can take a while when you live a long drive down a country road. Then the price depends on how much of the truck you fill, so you won't know the cost until the job is done.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift stores and charities have good reasons to be choosy. Scuffed dressers, worn recliners, and old electronics often get turned away, and you still have to load everything up and drive it into town yourself. Whatever they won't take comes back home with you.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container makes sense for a big teardown. For one cluttered room or a few loads from the barn, you're booking a delivery and a pickup, finding level ground for a heavy bin, and lifting every item over its walls yourself.

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.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Dunkirk, from the Yahara River to the last gravel driveway

Out here, an old chest freezer in the barn means a long gravel driveway, a borrowed trailer, and a Saturday gone before you reach a drop-off. Your Loader does the lifting and loading instead, from the garage, shed, or barn door. Dunkirk neighbors have plenty to look after, and your Loaders are glad to help.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items pile up fast on a large property, and where they end up matters as much as getting them out of the barn or garage. In Dunkirk, your Loader sorts each load by condition.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household goods that are clean and still in good shape may go to donation when possible and local options allow. Your Loader sets those items aside, though any paperwork is not something to count on.

  • 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 still have usable material, like old appliances, scrap metal, or electronics, can be taken to reuse or recycling options where available. Your Loader helps them get there.

  • Materials sorted and recovered
  • Diverted from landfill where possible
  • Compliant with local waste regs

  • No sorting or drop-off required on your end
  • Local disposal fees covered

Local Disposal Rules

The Dunkirk disposal rules most residents don't know

Dunkirk's recycling ordinance allows the town to inspect garbage and separated recyclables for compliance. Here is what applies to cleanouts in the Town of Dunkirk and across Dane County.

Rule 01

Brush goes to Stoughton's site, not the curb

Yard waste collection is not part of Dunkirk's curbside program, and brush and leaves are banned from garbage carts. Town residents can use the City of Stoughton Brush Site at no cost, which helps after storm cleanup or fall leaf season.

Rule 02

Old TVs and computers are banned from Wisconsin trash

Wisconsin law bars TVs, computers, printers, and cell phones from the trash, and Dunkirk garbage carts exclude electronics entirely. Dane County takes electronics for recycling through its Clean Sweep program so the valuable materials inside them can be recovered.

Rule 03

Junk piles and unlicensed vehicles must stay out of view

The Town of Dunkirk prohibits storing unlicensed vehicles, junk, or waste within public view, and the town constable enforces it. On rural lots where old equipment and debris can build up over the years, clearing it out keeps a property compliant.

Rule 04

Burning leftover construction debris is prohibited in Dunkirk

A rural burn pile may seem easy, but Dunkirk prohibits open burning of construction material, garbage, trash, or materials not readily combustible. Construction and demolition debris is also excluded from carts, though Dane County Landfill recycles clean asphalt shingles, nails, and tar paper.

Rule 05

Oversized items need a scheduled bulk pickup request first

Dunkirk has no set bulk day, and bulk pickup happens only by request. Anything that will not fit inside your garbage or recycling cart has to be called or emailed in to Johns Disposal, which schedules bulk collection regularly throughout the month.

Rule 06

Dane County Landfill recycles tires with or without rims

Old tires stacked in a barn or shed do not belong in a Dunkirk garbage cart, which is limited to household garbage only. The Dane County Landfill recycles tires on or off the rim, so there is no need to remove them from wheels first.

Not unless your hauler or the town has told you it will take it. Dunkirk is a rural town, and most residents use a private hauler or drop items off themselves. Check with the Town of Dunkirk before setting anything out, since items left without an arrangement can be treated as illegal dumping.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Dunkirk starts at $90, and pickup from the curb or driveway takes $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. Traditional haulers usually price by truckload.

Sometimes, depending on Loader availability for your address. Enter your address during booking to see the open time slots, which can include same-day or next-day. Rural addresses outside Stoughton may have fewer slots, so booking a day or two ahead gives you more choices.

Not for curbside or driveway pickups. You can leave items outside and add access notes at booking. For items inside your home, barn, or garage, someone should be there, or you can leave clear access instructions. Your Loader contacts you before arriving.

Hazardous items like paint, solvents, pesticides, and chemicals usually need special handling and can't go in regular trash or most junk loads. Dane County runs hazardous waste programs, so check current accepted items and hours with the county before bringing these to a drop-off.

Loaders aim to keep usable items out of the landfill. When options allow, they try to donate furniture and household goods to local charities and recycle metal and electronics, depending on acceptance. Items that can't be donated or recycled go to an appropriate disposal facility.

You book online, pick the items you want removed, enter your Dunkirk address, and choose a time window. You see the total before confirming. On pickup day your Loader arrives, removes the items from where you've marked, and handles the loading.

The main difference is the pricing model. Traditional haulers often price by truckload and may confirm the cost on site. LoadUp prices per item online and confirms your total before booking. For a big cleanout, a full-truck hauler may still be worth a quote.
