The Problem

Getting junk out of Ukiah shouldn't take a season

You search online, call around, and leave voicemails with a hauler or two who never call back. Somebody quotes you a vague range. Weeks go by, and the junk is still sitting in the garage.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

City bulk pickup programs and municipal pickup schedules can help, but they usually come with item limits, advance requests, and set collection windows. You still have to drag everything to the curb yourself, and some things, like hazardous materials, won't be accepted at all.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come out and look before they'll name a number. Then they price by how much of the truck you fill, and nobody can say exactly how much that is until the job's done. You're left guessing until the end.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift and donation drop-offs want clean, working items they can actually sell, and that makes sense. Stained upholstery, broken appliances, and worn mattresses often get turned away. You'd still have to get everything there yourself and figure out what to do with whatever they don't take.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container makes sense for a full teardown, not a spare bedroom or a cluttered shed. You'll have to plan delivery and pickup, maybe check permit rules, and give up your driveway for days while it sits there and the neighbors look at it.

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.

Pickup Options

Set out at the curb or hauled from where it sits

Curbside works when the old recliner or dead mower is already waiting at the street or in your driveway. If it is still inside an older valley bungalow, down basement steps, or deep in a backyard outbuilding, choose full-service and your Loaders bring it out from wherever it is stored.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Ukiah, from the 101 corridor to the rural edges

Ukiah summer afternoons don't do gentle, and wrestling an old sofa onto a borrowed truck in that heat is a rough way to spend a weekend. Your Loaders handle the heavy part while you stay in the shade. They like showing up for this town, from packed garages to backyard sheds.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items pile up fast in a valley town like Ukiah, and where they end up matters. Your Loader sorts each piece by condition, so donation, recycling, or disposal happens when local options allow.

Local Disposal Rules

The Ukiah disposal rules most residents don't know

A wet mattress or an unsorted debris load can turn a free drop-off into a paid one. These are the rules that shape a cleanout in Ukiah, Mendocino County.

Rule 01

Branches four inches or thicker stay out of the green cart

Ukiah's green-lid organics cart takes lawn clippings, leaves, branches under 4 inches in diameter, small unpainted wood pieces, and food scraps. Bagged material is not allowed, even in biodegradable bags, so larger limbs from brush clearing go to the transfer station as green waste.

Rule 02

Propane tanks need their valves removed before drop-off

The Ukiah Transfer Station takes propane tanks at no charge only with the valve removed. It also takes motor oil, oil filters, antifreeze, latex paint, and home generated sharps containers for free. Other household hazardous waste is handled by the Mendocino Solid Waste Management Authority.

Rule 03

Only clean, dry non-foam mattresses go free

At the Ukiah Transfer Station, clean and dry non-foam mattresses are accepted at no charge and must go in the mattress trailer. Foam mattresses and wet, stained, soiled, or damaged ones carry a fee, so keep stored mattresses out of winter rain.

Rule 04

California keeps electronics and batteries out of the trash

State law treats household batteries and electronic devices as universal waste, which can't go in household garbage. The Ukiah Transfer Station accepts televisions, computers, computer monitors, cell phones, printers, stereos, VCRs, car batteries, and household batteries at no charge.

Rule 05

Buckets, kiddie pools, and toys are recycled at no cost

The City of Ukiah lists rigid plastic, such as 5-gallon buckets, kiddie pools, toys, and laundry baskets, among the items recycled for free at the Ukiah Valley Transfer Station. Glass is accepted as well, but window panes are excluded.

Rule 06

Sorting debris loads earns a discount at the transfer station

The Ukiah Transfer Station charges for construction and demolition debris, but offers discounts for segregated C&D loads and for separated clean loads of wood and green waste. Treated wood is listed as its own fee category, so keep it apart from untreated lumber.

Not unless your trash hauler has set up a bulk pickup for it. Junk left at the curb or on a public street without an arrangement can be treated as illegal dumping. Check with your hauler or the City of Ukiah for current bulk rules.

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

Same-day slots are sometimes open, depending on Loader availability in the Ukiah Valley that day. Next-day and scheduled pickups are more reliable. Entering your address during booking shows the times open for your location.

Not for curbside or driveway pickups. You can leave the items outside with access notes. For items inside your home or garage, someone should be there, or you can leave entry instructions when you book. Your Loader will let you know before arriving.

Hazardous materials such as paint, solvents, pesticides, propane tanks and car batteries generally can't go in regular junk loads. Mendocino County residents usually need to take these to a household hazardous waste drop-off. Ask about any item you're unsure of before booking.

Loaders aim to donate usable items to local charities and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance. Items that can't be reused or recycled go to an appropriate disposal facility. Donation and recycling aren't guaranteed for every item.

You pick your items and your address online and choose a time window. You see the price before you confirm. On pickup day, your Loader arrives in that window, removes the items and takes them away. You don't need to haul anything to the curb if you'd rather not.

Pricing model and booking flow. Traditional haulers often charge by truckload and may give an estimate on site. LoadUp prices per item online, so the total is confirmed before booking. For a full-house cleanout, a truckload hauler may suit you better.
