The Problem

Getting rid of junk on the North Coast takes work

You search online, call the county, leave messages with a couple of haulers, and wait. One calls back, another never does. Weeks slip by, and the junk is still in the garage, still in the way.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Free bulk pickup through the local garbage service can work for a few items, but you usually have to schedule ahead, and some items aren't accepted at all. You still have to drag everything to the curb yourself, which isn't realistic for a heavy load or a narrow driveway.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to see the job in person before giving you a number, and then price it by how much of the truck you fill. That leaves you guessing until the truck is loaded, with no clear sense of what you're paying for.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift stores and charities need items they can resell, so stained upholstery, broken appliances, and worn mattresses often get turned away. Even when something qualifies, you have to load it, drive it over, and figure out what to do with everything they turn down.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container makes sense for a full remodel, not for clearing out one room. You have to book the delivery and pickup, maybe get a permit for street placement, and live with a big bin taking up the driveway while you do all the lifting.

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.

Vetted Loaders who show up ready to work

Pickup Options

Set it at the curb or leave it where it sits

Curbside, or outdoor, pickup works well for the many single-story homes where you can roll an old washer or stack fence boards in the driveway or under the carport ahead of time. If the couch is still in a back room or boxes are buried in a spare bedroom, choose full-service and your Loaders will bring everything out from inside.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Crescent City, from Highway 101 down to the water

Out here, a quick dump run isn't quick. Anywhere bigger is a long, winding drive up or down the coast, and a loaded truck bed on those curves is nobody's idea of a Saturday. Your Loaders handle the lifting and the miles, because they genuinely like showing up for their North Coast neighbors.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items are tough to move alone, and in a remote spot like Crescent City, getting them to the right place takes planning. Your Loaders sort each item by condition, so donation or recycling happens when local options allow.

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household goods in clean, usable shape may be donated where available. Your Loader sets these pieces aside for that path when local options allow, though no outcome is guaranteed.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Crescent City disposal rules most residents don't know

Put the wrong material in the wrong pile and it can be turned away or spread invasive weed seeds countywide. Here is what applies in Crescent City and across Del Norte County.

Rule 01

Textiles are accepted separately only when clean, dry, and bagged

The Del Norte County Transfer Station takes separated textiles as a recyclable item, with shoes bagged separately. Crescent City has rainy winters, so clothing stored in a damp garage or carport may not meet the dry requirement.

Rule 02

Keep tansy and scotch broom out of the green waste

Noxious weeds go in the general waste area at the Del Norte County Transfer Station, not green waste, because recycled green material would spread their seeds. A county ordinance requires owners to control tansy ragwort, and it can be dropped off free.

Rule 03

Concrete without rebar gets a lower transfer station rate

Concrete under 18 inches with no steel is sorted as a separated inert material at a lower rate than mixed trash. Larger chunks, smaller than 4 by 6 feet, count as regular solid waste only if steel sticks out less than 3 inches.

Rule 04

Electronics, batteries, and fluorescent bulbs are banned from the trash

It is illegal to throw these items in the trash because household hazardous waste in a landfill threatens people and wildlife. Del Norte residents can take household hazardous waste only to the Del Norte County Transfer Station, which also accepts electronics.

Rule 05

Carpet must be clean and rolled for separate handling

The Del Norte County Transfer Station lists clean, rolled carpet as a special waste. Curbside bulky collection takes up to 1.5 yards of carpet or carpet padding, prepared in manageable sizes with the backing rolled out, which helps after winter storm leaks.

Rule 06

Two free curbside bulky pickups come after 90 days of service

Recology Del Norte cart customers, including multi-family households, get two free pickups per year. Apartment renters may need to schedule through their property manager. A refrigerator, freezer, or hide-a-bed couch counts as two items, and items over six feet long, liquids, dirt, and ashes are refused.

Generally no. Piles left on streets or sidewalks without an arranged pickup can be treated as illegal dumping in California, and fines can apply. Ask your trash hauler or the City of Crescent City about bulky item rules before setting anything out.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Crescent City starts at $75, and curbside or outdoor pickup takes a flat $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.

Sometimes, depending on Loader availability in Del Norte County that day. Enter your address during booking to see open times. Smaller coastal markets can have fewer slots, so booking a day or two ahead gives you more choice.

Not for curbside or outdoor pickups. Leave items in an accessible spot and add notes at booking. For items inside your home, someone should be present or you can provide access instructions. Your Loader sends a heads-up before arriving.

Hazardous materials such as paint, solvents, pesticides, batteries, and motor oil generally can't go in household trash anywhere in California. Local hazardous waste drop-off programs handle them, so confirm accepted items and hours with Del Norte County before hauling.

Loaders try to keep usable items out of the landfill by donating or recycling whenever options allow, depending on acceptance by local charities and facilities. Items that can't be reused or recycled go to the appropriate disposal facility.

Pick your items and address online, choose a time window, and see your total before confirming. On pickup day your Loader arrives, confirms the items, and carries them out and loads them. You don't need to haul anything to the curb unless you choose curbside pricing.

Mainly the pricing model. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King typically price by truck space, often confirmed on site. LoadUp prices per item online, with the total confirmed before booking. For a big cleanout, a truckload quote may suit you better.
