The Problem

Getting rid of junk out here takes more than a plan

You look up county options, call a few haulers, and wait on callbacks that never come. One wants to see the job first, another never answers. Meanwhile the pile in the garage stays right where it was.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Coloma has no city government, so there's no city bulk pickup program here. County or hauler-based options may exist, but they vary, often limit what they take, and usually need advance scheduling. You may still end up dragging heavy items to the road yourself.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to drive out for an in-person estimate before they give you a number, and on a rural property that can mean days of waiting. Then the price depends on how much of the truck you fill, so you don't really know the cost until they show up.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers have good reason to turn down worn, stained, or broken items, and many won't take mattresses, older appliances, or anything bulky. Even when they will, you usually still have to load it up and drive it down the hill yourself.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A dumpster makes sense for a full teardown, not for clearing a shed or one spare room. You'll have to find space for it on a narrow or sloped driveway, work around delivery and pickup dates, and do all the lifting and loading yourself.

Pickup Options

Left by the road or lifted from where it sits

Curbside, or outdoor, pickup fits when the old recliner or bagged yard waste is already waiting at the end of your gravel driveway or beside the shed. If the items are still inside, or you are managing the property from out of town, choose full-service and your Loaders will carry everything out from rooms, garages, and outbuildings.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Coloma, and the communities along Highway 49

Hauling an old sofa up a steep, winding grade is nobody's idea of a relaxed Saturday, and Coloma has no city pickup schedule to wait on. Your Loaders handle the lifting, carrying, and loading, gravel driveways included, and they genuinely enjoy showing up for the neighbors who keep this quiet corner of El Dorado County running.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items pile up fast on rural foothill properties, and getting them out of Coloma responsibly takes some planning. Your Loader sorts each load by condition, favoring donation or recycling when local options allow before disposal.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture, appliances, and household goods in good, clean condition may be donated when possible and when local options allow. Availability in the foothills can vary, so donation is never guaranteed for any item.

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

Items that are worn or damaged but not fit for donation may be recycled where available, such as metal frames or certain appliances. Recycling options in a rural area can be limited.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Coloma disposal rules most residents don't know

Mishandled debris in fire country can mean enforcement action or a dangerous blaze. These rules apply to cleanouts in Coloma and throughout El Dorado County.

Rule 01

Hauling ten or more old tires requires state registration

CalRecycle requires anyone transporting ten or more waste tires at a time to hold a waste tire hauler registration. Residents clearing out a barn or ranch property can haul up to nine tires per trip themselves to an accepting facility.

Rule 02

Brush piles near your home can violate defensible space law

Much of the land around Coloma is a State Responsibility Area, where California law requires 100 feet of defensible space around structures. Brush, dead branches, and stacked debris near a home can lead to an inspection violation, so cleared vegetation should leave the property.

Rule 03

State law caps how much hazardous waste you can haul

California limits residents to transporting 15 gallons or 125 pounds of household hazardous waste per trip to a collection site. El Dorado County collections follow these limits and ask that chemicals stay in their original, labeled containers without mixing.

Rule 04

Burning household trash is illegal even on rural acreage

California air quality rules prohibit burning household garbage, plastics, treated wood, and furniture, including in backyard burn barrels. Residential burning is limited to dry natural vegetation from the property, on permissive burn days and with any required permits.

Rule 05

Old fence posts and decking are regulated treated wood waste

Pressure-treated lumber from decks, fences, and landscape timbers is classified in California as treated wood waste. It cannot be burned, chipped into mulch, or placed in regular recycling, and must go to a facility approved to accept it.

Rule 06

Refrigerators and freezers need refrigerant removed before scrapping

Under California law, major appliances containing refrigerants, mercury switches, or PCB capacitors must have those materials removed by a certified appliance recycler before the unit is crushed, shredded, or landfilled. Scrap metal recyclers generally cannot accept an appliance until that removal is complete.

No. Coloma is unincorporated, so there is no city bulk pickup, and junk left on a roadside or public land can be treated as illegal dumping under California law. Check with your El Dorado County trash hauler about bulky item service, or haul it to a county transfer station.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Coloma starts at $75, and curbside or outdoor pickup takes a flat $5 off. The first item includes the base pickup fee, and each additional item is a flat add-on charge. Your exact total is confirmed before booking.

Sometimes. Availability depends on Loader schedules in the Placerville and Auburn corridor, so enter your address at booking to see open times. Rural foothill addresses may have fewer slots, so booking a day or two ahead is the safer bet.

Not for curbside or driveway pickups. Leave the items outside with any access notes. For in-home pickups, someone should be there or you can leave access instructions at booking. Loaders usually send a heads-up before they arrive.

Household hazardous waste like paint, solvents, pesticides, and batteries can't go in regular trash or a standard junk load. El Dorado County runs household hazardous waste drop-off at its transfer facilities, and residents can use it free of charge. Call ahead to confirm hours.

Loaders aim to keep usable items out of the landfill by donating them to local charities when options allow. Recyclable materials go to recycling facilities depending on acceptance. Whatever can't be donated or recycled goes to an appropriate disposal facility.

You pick your items and a time window online, see the total upfront, and confirm. On pickup day, Loaders arrive in your window, load everything from the spot you chose, and you pay the confirmed price. Nothing is estimated at your door.

The main difference is the pricing model. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King generally price by truckload, often confirmed on site. LoadUp prices per item online, locked in before booking. A full truckload of mixed junk can still suit a truckload hauler better.
