The Problem

Getting rid of junk in San Ramon takes longer than it should

You look up the city's rules, leave a voicemail or two, and request hauler quotes that never come back. Some crews want to stop by first. Weeks go by, and the garage is still full.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

City bulk pickup programs work well when your items fit the rules. Pickups usually have to be scheduled ahead, some items are excluded or need special handling, and everything has to be staged at the curb. That's a tough ask on a sloped Canyon Lakes driveway or under HOA staging limits.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers won't quote you until someone comes out to look in person. Then the price depends on how much of the truck your load fills, which you won't know until loading is done. You end up committing to the job before you know what it will cost.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation sites need items they can resell, so stains, wobbly legs or missing parts often get turned away. Most won't take mattresses or worn upholstery, and you still have to load and drive everything there yourself. Whatever they refuse comes home with you.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A dumpster can make sense for a full remodel. For a spare room or one corner of the garage, though, it can mean a permit or HOA approval, waiting for delivery and pickup, and a big steel bin taking over your driveway for days while the neighbors look on.

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.

Vetted Loaders who respect your home

Your Loaders angle dressers down two-story staircases and through narrow side-yard gates. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in San Ramon after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders

Pickup Options

Leave it at the curb or have it carried out

If your items are already on the driveway, curbside is the simple fit, though some HOAs limit how long things can sit out front. For a treadmill in an upstairs bonus room or a garage packed to the rafters, choose full-service and your Loaders will carry everything out from where it sits.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving San Ramon, from the Iron Horse Trail to the foothills

After a week on the 680 commute, a weekend dump run with a loaded trunk is nobody's idea of a reset, and the garage keeps filling anyway. Your Loaders would rather do the lifting, loading and sweeping up so you get your Saturday back. They like showing up for the people who keep San Ramon running.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items pile up fast in San Ramon garages and side yards, so where they end up matters. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, aiming to keep reusable pieces out of landfills when local options allow.

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household goods in good, clean condition may be set aside for donation when possible and where local options allow. If you need a receipt, arrange the donation yourself.

  • 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 donatable, such as metal frames, scrap wood or small appliances, may be sorted by your Loader for recycling where available, though this is a goal, not a promise.

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

Responsible Disposal

Heavily damaged, soiled or broken bulky items that can't be reused or recycled go to responsible disposal. Your Loader handles the lifting and loading so nothing is left behind in your San Ramon garage or driveway.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The San Ramon disposal rules most residents don't know

Going over San Ramon's clean-up limits adds a fee, and putting items out too early breaks program rules. These specifics apply to San Ramon residents in Contra Costa County.

Rule 01

Artificial holiday trees skip the curbside tree collection

San Ramon's single-family holiday tree program does not accept artificial trees. They go in the garbage instead. You can put one in your garbage cart with the lid closed, or schedule it as a bulky item pickup under standard policies.

Rule 02

Heavy furniture and appliances face a 200-pound limit

Neighborhood Clean-Up Days happen three times a year. Each one accepts up to two large bulky items weighing 60 to 200 pounds each, within a 3 cubic yard set out. No single item over 200 pounds is collected, and extra volume carries a fee.

Rule 03

Apartment bulky pickups go through your complex manager

In San Ramon, bulky item cleanups at apartment and condo complexes must be arranged by the complex manager, and there is a fee for the service. Items go to an agreed pickup spot by 6:00 a.m. on the scheduled day, never more than 24 hours early.

Rule 04

Old tires are accepted only after rims come off

On single-family clean-up days, each set out can include up to four car or light truck tires, but the rims must be removed first. That lets residents clear a stack of old tires from the garage without a separate trip.

Rule 05

Toys with built-in batteries need hazardous waste collection

If a toy's batteries come out, recycle the batteries and put the toy out as a bulky item. Toys with built-in batteries go through the city's door-to-door household hazardous waste program with Clean Harbors, booked by appointment.

Rule 06

Reusable goods get pulled aside for donation, not landfill

Keep reusable items separate from trash on clean-up day and they go to a sorting and donation facility through a St. Vincent de Paul partnership. They must work, have all their parts, and be free of holes or stains. No receipts are given.

Not without a scheduled pickup. Residents can book bulky item collection through ACI of San Ramon at (925) 380-9480, and items set out with no appointment can be treated as illegal dumping. Confirm your pickup limits and any fees with ACI first.

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

Often, but it depends on Loader availability for your address and the time you book. Enter your San Ramon zip during booking to see live same-day and next-day slots. For curbside pickups you don't need to be home, and for in-home pickups someone should be there or leave access notes.

No. ACI of San Ramon offers residents a limited number of bulky item pickups per year, reportedly two, but hazardous items like paint, batteries and chemicals are handled separately. Those go to the Household Hazardous Waste facility in Martinez or a door-to-door program, so ask ACI what applies.

Loaders aim to keep usable items out of the landfill by donating them when local charities will accept them. They try to recycle metal, electronics and other materials where possible. Whatever can't be donated or recycled goes to an appropriate disposal facility.

Pick your items and zip code online, choose a time window, and see your total before you confirm. On pickup day your Loader arrives, removes the items, and handles the loading and hauling. You don't have to carry anything to the truck.

The main difference is the pricing model. Traditional haulers usually charge by truck volume, and the final price often depends on an on-site estimate. LoadUp prices per item online, so your total is confirmed before booking. For large cleanouts, a truckload hauler may suit you better.
