What to Expect

Full-service removal breakdown

Filing Cabinet disposal service details

Pricing for filing cabinet removal is based on the number of cabinets, their size and configuration, and where they are located on your property. A single two-drawer vertical cabinet is priced differently than a heavy four-drawer lateral unit or a set of multiple cabinets being cleared from a business or office space. Access factors like stairs or a tight hallway may also affect your total, and all of that is reflected in your upfront price before you confirm.

Please empty all drawers and remove any personal or sensitive documents before your Loaders arrive. Your Loaders are there to lift and haul the cabinet itself, not to handle, sort, or dispose of paperwork.

Filing cabinet types we pick up

LoadUp picks up all common filing cabinet styles and configurations found in home offices, businesses, and storage spaces.

  • Vertical filing cabinet
  • Lateral filing cabinet
  • Metal filing cabinet
  • Wood filing cabinet
  • Two-drawer filing cabinet
  • Four-drawer filing cabinet
  • Mobile pedestal file cabinet
  • Fire-resistant filing cabinet

Options & add-ons (clearly priced)

Your booking total is transparent from the start. Optional adjustments like stairs, additional cabinets, or other office furniture being added to the same pickup are clearly shown during checkout so your final price is accurate and surprise-free when your Loaders arrive.

Volume discounts

The more you remove, the more you save. Discounts apply in real time as items are added.

Flights of stairs

Stairs add time and labor, which is factored in upfront to keep pricing fair for everyone.

Item disassembly

For items that need to be taken apart, add disassembly to your booking during checkout.

Donation drop-off

Choose whether eligible items should be donated when possible during checkout.

Sustainability efforts

Your Loaders prioritize recycling metal filing cabinets and donating usable wood or composite units to local organizations whenever possible. Actual disposal outcomes depend on the cabinet's condition, local facility availability, and current donation demand in your area.

Filing cabinet pickup typically starts around $80, though your final price depends on the number of cabinets, their size and configuration, and the pickup type you choose. A single two-drawer vertical cabinet will be priced differently than a heavy four-drawer lateral unit or a set of multiple cabinets being cleared from a business. In-home pickup, where your Loaders carry the cabinet out from inside, may also factor into your total. Your upfront price is shown before you confirm, so there are no surprise charges when your Loaders arrive.

Yes, please empty all drawers and remove any personal or sensitive documents before your Loaders arrive. Your Loaders are there to lift and haul the cabinet itself, not to handle, sort, or dispose of paperwork. If drawers are still full of files, your Loaders will not be able to take the cabinet as part of the pickup.

Yes, your Loaders can carry heavy multi-drawer and lateral filing cabinets down stairs and through tight hallways or office spaces. If a cabinet is too bulky to move whole, your Loaders can disassemble it to get it out safely. Stairs and access factors are accounted for in your upfront price, so there are no additional charges added on the day of pickup.

No, your Loaders do not handle, sort, shred, or dispose of any documents or paperwork. This service covers the cabinet itself only. You will need to remove all files and personal documents from the drawers before your scheduled pickup.

Yes, you can add multiple filing cabinets or other office furniture items to the same pickup during checkout. Pricing adjusts based on the number and type of items being removed, and everything is shown upfront before you confirm your booking.

Your Loaders handle disposal based on what is locally available at the time of pickup. Metal filing cabinets may be recyclable when local options allow, and usable cabinets in good condition may be donated to local organizations where demand exists. Actual disposal outcomes depend on the cabinet's condition and what facilities are available in your area. LoadUp does not guarantee recycling or donation, and no donation receipt is provided.
