The Problem

In Farmington, the easy options run out fast

You read the collection rules, call to ask what actually counts, then start gathering quotes. Two haulers answer, one never calls back, and the pile you meant to handle in March is still sitting there in June.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

City bulk pickup programs currently cap you at two large items on your regular service day, and upholstered pieces have to be bagged or wrapped in plastic before anyone touches them. Confirm current rules with the city. Either way, getting it to the curb is still your job.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Most local outfits want to walk the basement before quoting, which means scheduling a visit just to learn a number. Then the number moves, because you're buying fractions of a truck bed and the final call happens after everything is already loaded.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Resale shops have standards, and they should: no stains, no tears, nothing that smells like a basement. Acceptance policies shift month to month, too. Even when a couch qualifies, most places won't climb your stairs to get it, so the load-out is still on you.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off means a container parked in your driveway for days, permit questions if it sits in the street, and a delivery window plus a pickup window to coordinate. On the older, tighter lots around here, it also blocks the only parking you have.

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.

Background-checked Loaders you can count on

A box spring that has to turn twice on a narrow basement stairwell takes practice. Your Loaders are background-checked and rated by real locals in Farmington after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Pick the service level that matches your situation

If everything is already sitting in the driveway or at the street, curbside keeps it simple and your Loaders just load up and go. Choose full-service when the couch is still in a finished basement or a detached garage, which is common in the city's older postwar homes, and your Loaders carry it out from wherever it sits.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving all of Farmington, every street inside the Hills

Saturday mornings in this town belong to the farmers market, not to borrowing somebody's pickup and wrestling a sleeper sofa up a 1950s basement stairwell. Snow, slush, or August humidity, none of it makes that trip easier. Your Loaders do the carrying and the loading, and they genuinely like showing up for people here.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Most of what leaves a Farmington basement or garage still has somewhere better to go than a landfill. Your Loaders sort each piece by condition on pickup day, then route it toward donation, recycling, or disposal.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture, working exercise equipment, and household goods that are clean and structurally sound may head toward a local resale or donation outlet when the item qualifies and a nearby option is accepting.

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

Visible Wear

Recycling

Items too worn to reuse often get broken down for materials instead. Metal bed frames, appliance shells, and electronics can go to recycling channels where available, depending on condition and what processors take.

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

Responsible Disposal

Anything soaked, moldy, or structurally broken goes to a licensed transfer station or landfill serving this part of Michigan. Appliances holding refrigerants get handled separately, since state rules apply before the unit is scrapped.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Farmington disposal rules most residents don't know

Set out the wrong load in Farmington and it gets tagged and left at the curb; these Oakland County and Michigan rules decide what moves.

Rule 01

Two bulk items per collection day is the limit

The city allows each household two bulk items on its regular service day, with all other trash inside the cart plus up to five extra bags. Anything beyond that requires a separately arranged special pickup through the city's hauler.

Rule 02

Upholstered furniture and mattresses must be wrapped before collection

Under guidelines in effect since July 2024, upholstered items and mattresses must be bagged or wrapped in plastic to be collected. Crews leave unwrapped ones behind, so mattress bags from a home improvement store solve it before set-out day.

Rule 03

Construction debris passes only in small, cut down pieces

Drywall, plywood, windows and similar remodeling debris ride along with regular trash only when pieces stay under four feet long and under 60 pounds. Contractor sized quantities are refused, and construction materials are handled as a separate special pickup.

Rule 04

State law keeps yard waste out of Michigan landfills

Because state law bars yard clippings from landfills, Farmington runs a separate seasonal collection beginning the first full week of April. Use kraft paper bags or a decaled 32 to 35 gallon container under 60 pounds; plastic bags are rejected.

Rule 05

Refrigerant must be recovered before an appliance is scrapped

Federal Clean Air Act rules enforced in Michigan require a certified technician to recover Freon from refrigerators, freezers, window air conditioners and dehumidifiers before disposal. Refrigerator and freezer doors also come off so the unit cannot trap a child.

Rule 06

Electronics and chemicals route through RRRASOC, not the cart

Farmington belongs to the Southwest Oakland County recycling authority, whose household hazardous waste events accept televisions, computers and other e-waste with proof of residency. Residents may also drop hazardous material at its Livonia processing partner free year round.

Farmington contracts with Waste Management for Thursday curbside collection, and each household can set out two bulk items per week on its service day. Upholstered pieces must be bagged or wrapped in plastic, and everything needs to be at the curb by 7 AM. Anything beyond that limit needs another option.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Farmington starts at $80, and leaving items at the curb or driveway takes $5 off. The first item includes the base pickup fee, and each additional item is a flat add-on charge, so your full total is confirmed upfront before you book.

Same-day is often open in Farmington when you book early in the day, and next-day covers the wider Oakland County area. Enter your zip during booking to see live availability. For curbside jobs you do not need to be home, just leave items out with access notes.

Farmington's weekly bulk pickup covers furniture and large items, but fridges and freezers need Freon removed first, and paints, chemicals, and electronics stay out of the curbside stream. RRRASOC runs household hazardous waste drop-offs for Southwest Oakland County, and Loaders can haul appliances with no tag needed.

Loaders sort when possible so usable furniture and household goods can head to local charities, and metal, appliances, and electronics go to certified recyclers when options allow. Farmington partners with RRRASOC on recycling, and the aim is to keep reusable items out of the landfill whenever possible.

Pick your items online or by phone, get an upfront price, and choose a pickup window. Your Loader typically calls about 30 minutes before arrival. For curbside jobs you can leave items out with notes, and for in-home pickups someone should be there or provide access instructions at booking.

Pricing and booking flow. Companies like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Two Men and a Junk Truck usually quote by truckload after an in-person look, so your price firms up once the truck arrives. LoadUp prices per item online and locks it in before anyone shows up.
