The Problem

Getting rid of junk up here takes more than a truck

You search online, call the county's hauler, and leave messages with a few junk companies. One calls back, one never does, and weeks later the pile is still waiting by the woodshed.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Lompico has no city government, so there's no city bulk pickup program. Any county or hauler bulky item option usually has to be requested ahead of time, only takes certain items, and expects you to get everything out to the road yourself.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Lots of haulers want to drive up and look before they give you a number, and on winding mountain roads that can mean waiting days. Pricing by fractions of a truckload makes the final bill hard to predict until the job is already done.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift stores and charities have to be choosy. Stained upholstery, worn mattresses, and anything warped by damp forest air often gets turned away, and most of them won't take old lumber, broken appliances, or remodel scraps at all.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container needs a flat, open spot to sit on, and steep, wooded lots rarely have one. Add delivery windows, a narrow shared road, and neighbors driving around it, and that's a lot of trouble for one garage.

Local Haulers

Background-checked Loaders who are ready for the hillside

Your Loader hauls a dresser up a stepped hillside driveway or pulls it out of a crawlspace under the deck. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Lompico after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Left by the road or carried out from where it sits

If you can get old lumber or a broken water heater down to a flat spot near the road, choose curbside. For anything still sitting in a basement, a garage, or a former summer cabin up a steep path, choose full-service so your Loaders can carry it out, and mention any narrow road or tight turnaround when you book.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Lompico, from the Highway 9 turnoff in Felton up Lompico Road

Anyone who lives up here knows a dump run means a winding drive down the hill with a bed full of old lumber, then the same curves back home. It eats the whole day. Your Loaders do the lifting and carrying, and they genuinely like showing up for neighbors on these roads.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items from a garage, deck, or crawlspace need somewhere sensible to go, and Lompico has no city pickup program to lean on. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, favoring reuse when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture, tools, and household goods in good, clean condition may be donated when possible. Your Loader sets those items aside and loads them separately, though a specific recipient or outcome can't be promised.

  • Tax-deductible receipt by request
  • Diverts waste from landfill
  • Free up your space and help a neighbor
See donation pickup
Visible Wear

Recycling

Items that are worn or damaged but not fit for donation, such as scrap metal, old appliances, or lumber, may be recycled where available. Your Loader separates what can be reused as materials from true trash.

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

Responsible Disposal

Heavily damaged or contaminated bulky items, like soaked furniture or rotted decking, go to a licensed disposal site. Your Loader carries and loads them, and the exact site depends on current local options.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Lompico disposal rules most residents don't know

Illegal dumping in unincorporated Santa Cruz County now brings fines starting at $2,500, so Lompico residents should know these county rules before clearing out a home.

Rule 01

Storm-downed logs over 8 feet stay out of Ben Lomond

Inside Ben Lomond Transfer Station, lumber, yard waste, stumps, root balls, and logs are refused once they exceed 8 feet in length or 8 inches in diameter. Oversized wood can go to Buena Vista Landfill, and the county gives no discount for rain water weight.

Rule 02

Ben Lomond hazardous waste drop-off is closed until September 2027

The closure began August 21, 2026, for spill containment upgrades. Meanwhile, the county directs residents to Buena Vista Landfill or the City of Santa Cruz Resource Recovery Facility, and county drop-offs cap each visit at 15 gallons or 125 pounds.

Rule 03

Households can drop off up to 15 mattresses free

County disposal facilities accept mattresses and box springs from households free of charge, limited to 15 per trip per household. Mattresses coming from a retailer or business carry a per-piece fee instead, so the free allowance is meant for residential cleanouts.

Rule 04

Old treated wood needs its own sorted, declared load

California regulates treated wood waste separately from regular trash. Ben Lomond accepts home-generated treated wood Monday through Saturday, up to 500 pounds per day, but it must be pre-sorted, declared at the scale house, and hand unloaded. Loads over 50 pounds can trigger extra paperwork.

Rule 05

GreenWaste customers get three free bulky item pickups yearly

In unincorporated Santa Cruz County, GreenWaste customers are eligible for three bulky item pickups and four extra bin setouts per year at no additional cost. The county promotes the program for large items such as furniture and appliances to curb illegal dumping.

Rule 06

Ammonia refrigerators are refused at county disposal sites

County facilities take appliances with and without Freon, charging more for Freon units because the refrigerant must be recovered. Ammonia refrigerators are not accepted at all; the county refers owners of those units to County Environmental Health for proper handling.

Not unless it's a scheduled pickup. Unincorporated Santa Cruz County raised illegal dumping fines in July 2025 to $2,500 for a first offense, $5,000 for a second, and $10,000 after that. Items left out without an appointment can be treated as dumping.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Lompico starts at $75 for a single item, and curbside or driveway 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.

Often yes. GreenWaste customers in unincorporated Santa Cruz County get three bulky item pickups per year at no added cost. The free option is a good fit if you can wait for a scheduled date and your items meet GreenWaste's rules.

Not for curbside or driveway pickups, since items can be left out with access notes. For items inside a mountain home or cabin, someone should be there or you can leave entry instructions at booking. Same-day availability depends on your zip code and the schedule that day.

The county's Ben Lomond Transfer Station on Newell Creek Road is the closest drop-off. It charges per ton with a minimum fee, and loads with sortable recyclables can be charged extra. Hazardous items follow separate county household hazardous waste rules.

Loaders aim to keep usable items out of the landfill. Whenever options allow, furniture and household goods go to local donation partners, and recyclables like metal or e-waste go to recyclers. Items that can't be accepted are disposed of at the appropriate facility.

Pick your items and zip code online, choose a time window, and see your total before you confirm. On pickup day your Loader checks in before arriving, then carries out, loads, and hauls everything away. Narrow, wooded driveways are worth noting at booking.

Mostly the pricing model. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King usually price by truck space, with a final quote often given on site. LoadUp prices per item online and confirms the total before booking, which can suit small jobs. Large cleanouts may suit truckload pricing.
