The Problem

Getting rid of junk in Ettrick takes more than it should

You check the county website, call a couple of haulers, and wait on quotes that never come back. Meanwhile the old furniture still sits in the garage, and another weekend slips by with nothing hauled away.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Since Ettrick is unincorporated, there is no city program, so you're left with Chesterfield County services and their own schedules and rules. Some items are restricted or need special handling, and you still have to drag everything out yourself, which rarely matches your timeline.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come out and see the job before quoting, then price it by fractions of a truckload that are hard to judge. What you're told on the phone can change once the truck is parked in your driveway.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers need items in good, resellable condition, so a stained mattress or a couch with a broken frame usually gets turned away. Even items they do accept often have to be dropped off by you, which means loading and driving them over yourself.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A dumpster makes sense for a full renovation, not a garage cleanout. You coordinate delivery and pickup, maybe check placement rules, and end up with a big steel box in your driveway for days on a quiet residential street where neighbors notice.

Pickup Options

Set it out front or leave it where it sits

If the old mower or worn dresser is already at the end of your driveway, curbside pickup lets your Loader grab it and go. For a cluttered backyard shed, an upstairs room in a rental, or anything you would rather not drag outside yourself, choose full-service and your Loader carries it out from inside or out back.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Ettrick, on the Chesterfield side of the Appomattox

In Ettrick, there is always a neighbor with a truck, and a couch waiting on the porch while you work up the nerve to ask. Skip the favor and the dump run. Your Loader lifts it, carries it out, and loads it, because showing up for a community this close-knit is the best part of the job.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items rarely end up in the same place, and that matters in a quiet residential community like Ettrick. Your Loader sorts each load by condition, so usable pieces and worn-out ones can follow different paths when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household goods that are clean and in good shape may be set aside by your Loader for donation when possible. Availability depends on local options, so donation is a possible outcome and not a promise.

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

Visible Wear

Recycling

Items that are damaged but still have usable materials, like metal frames or some appliances, may be separated for recycling where available. Your Loader handles the lifting and sorting, and outcomes depend on what local facilities accept.

  • 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 items are loaded by your Loader and taken for responsible disposal at an appropriate facility. The exact destination varies by load and by what local sites accept.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Ettrick disposal rules most residents don't know

If you show up without proof of residency or with a refused item, you'll be turned away from the gate. These rules apply to Ettrick residents in Chesterfield County.

Rule 01

Tire disposal is capped at five per visit

The county convenience centers take up to five tires per visit and don't accept oversized tires at all. If you're clearing a bigger stack from a shed, carport or backyard, you'll need to plan several separate trips.

Rule 02

Proof of Chesterfield residency is checked at the gate

Ettrick sits right along the Petersburg and Colonial Heights lines, but the Northern and Southern Area Convenience Centers are only for Chesterfield County residents. Bring identification or proof of county residency, because you may be asked for it before you unload.

Rule 03

Tree stumps are refused even after storm cleanup

Tropical storm remnants often bring down trees near the Appomattox River, but tree stumps are on the not-accepted list at both county convenience centers. Before you head out, check the county Storm Information page for weather-related closings.

Rule 04

Oil-based paint only goes to special collection events

The convenience centers only take oil-based paint at special collection events. Cans from a garage or basement cleanout have to wait for a county household chemical collection day. You can still drop off used motor oil, antifreeze and gasoline at the centers.

Rule 05

Microwaves have one county drop-off point near Ettrick

Microwaves can be recycled at the Southern Area Convenience Center in Chester, which is the county site closest to Ettrick, or at regional electronics events. Securis also holds an electronics recycling event in Richmond on the first Saturday of each month.

Rule 06

Freon appliances are charged separately from other appliances

Appliances that contain Freon, like refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners, have a different fee than stoves, washing machines and water heaters. Chesterfield's fees change July 1, 2026. Clean, reusable metal can go in the separate scrap metal bin.

Not unless it's part of your hauler's scheduled bulk collection. Ettrick is unincorporated, so Chesterfield County rules apply, and items left out without a pickup arranged can be treated as illegal dumping. Check your trash provider's bulk schedule first.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Ettrick starts at $85, and curbside pickup takes a flat $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. Truckload haulers usually quote after seeing the job.

Often, depending on the schedule that day. Enter your address at booking to see the live slots for Ettrick. For curbside pickups you don't need to be home. For in-home pickups, someone should be there or you can leave access instructions.

Yes. Chesterfield residents can use the Southern Area Convenience Center at 6700 Landfill Drive in Chester, open daily 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Bring ID showing county residency. Household hazardous waste is accepted free in its original labeled container, but fees apply for other loads.

Loaders aim to keep usable items out of the landfill by donating them depending on acceptance, and they try to recycle materials whenever possible. Items that can't be donated or recycled go to an appropriate disposal facility. Outcomes vary by item condition and what local partners will take.

Pick your items and time online, then see your price before you confirm. On pickup day, your Loader heads to your address, and you're told when they're on the way. They carry the items out and load them, so you don't have to lift anything.

The main difference is the pricing model. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King generally price by truck space, often with an on-site estimate. LoadUp prices per item online and confirms the total before booking. For a big cleanout, a truckload quote may suit you better.

It can be, if you have a truck and the time. The Chesterfield convenience centers charge fees for most loads and require proof of county residency. Hiring a service costs more but covers loading, hauling and disposal, which matters if you have heavy items or no vehicle.
