The Problem

Arvada gives you options. None of them are easy.

So you start calling. The city line points you to a list of what won't be taken, two haulers never call back, and the one that does wants to come look first. Three weeks later, the pile hasn't moved.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Nothing costs extra at the citywide drop-off Saturdays, but there are only a few each year, items are capped, and you load, drive, and unload every piece yourself. On-demand curbside bulk pickup is priced per item, arranged by phone ahead of time, and limited to households on cart service.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Most haulers won't give you a number until someone walks your garage, and even then the price depends on how much space your stuff takes up in their truck. Find one more thing on pickup day and the number moves again.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Secondhand shops resell what they accept, so they want clean, working, undamaged pieces. Anything stained, broken, or missing hardware stays yours. Scheduled donation trucks also book out, and many expect items already waiting at ground level, which is the part you were trying to avoid.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container means scheduling a drop, keeping it long enough to justify the rental, and filling it yourself, piece by piece. Narrow driveways on the older central blocks complicate placement, street spots can require a permit, and covenants in newer subdivisions rarely welcome one out front.

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.

Loaders who are vetted before they reach your door

Your Loaders handle the turn at the bottom of a basement stairwell and the low clearance of a detached garage. They are background-checked two-person teams, rated by real locals in Arvada after each job.

  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Find the service level that fits your situation

Curbside fits when everything is already sitting outside, at the street or the top of the driveway. Pick full service when a treadmill is still in an upstairs bonus room, or when covenant rules where you live make staging items out front a bad idea.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving every corner of Arvada, Sheridan to Indiana Street

Nobody wants to lash a sectional into a pickup bed and merge onto Wadsworth on a Saturday, and the G Line is definitely not taking your old treadmill downtown. Weekends here go fast enough already. Your Loaders handle the carry-out and the loading, then they are gone, because folks in this town are worth showing up for.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Most of what leaves an Arvada garage or basement still has life left in it. Your Loaders sort each item by condition on pickup day, separating what can be donated or recycled from what has to be thrown out.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Clean, working items get a second look first. When a nearby outlet is accepting that category, your Loaders offer usable furniture, lamps, and intact household goods for donation instead of loading them for disposal.

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

Recycling

Damaged items are not automatically trash. Your Loaders separate metal frames, mixed scrap, and electronics restricted from Colorado landfills for recycling when possible and when a nearby outlet accepts that material.

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

Responsible Disposal

Water-damaged sectionals, cracked hot tub surrounds, and remodel debris pulled from an Arvada basement have no resale or recycling path left. Those loads end up at a permitted transfer or landfill site serving the area.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Arvada disposal rules most residents don't know

Set out the wrong item in Arvada and it gets left behind, and lingering debris can draw a code violation notice. Here is what Arvada and Jefferson County require.

Rule 01

Curbside bulk pickup must be scheduled and prepaid

Arvada's city hauling program takes oversized items only by appointment and only after prepayment, with items at the curb by 7 am. Anything outside the accepted list, including tires, glass, and exercise equipment, stays behind.

Rule 02

Colorado bans electronics from every landfill statewide

The Electronic Recycling Jobs Act has kept televisions, monitors, computers, printers, tablets, and video gear out of Colorado landfills since 2013, and haulers may not knowingly collect them. Registered electronics recyclers and collection events are the legal route.

Rule 03

Freon appliances need certified refrigerant recovery first

Refrigerators, freezers, and air conditioners are excluded from Arvada's curbside bulk list because sealed refrigerant has to be recovered by a certified technician under federal rules before the remaining metal can be scrapped or landfilled.

Rule 04

Construction debris and dumpsters follow separate rules

Concrete, brick, dirt, rock, and remodeling debris are off the city bulk list entirely. Placing a dumpster or container in Arvada right-of-way requires a permit, a leak-proof container no larger than 40 yards, and no liquids, oils, or paint inside.

Rule 05

Leaves and branches go to different city programs

Arvada's fall leaf drop-off accepts loose leaves only, with no branches, woody brush, or stumps, and bags must be emptied onto the pile. Bundled limbs belong at the citywide bulky item events, where bundle size and count are capped.

Rule 06

Household chemicals belong at Rooney Road, not the curb

Paint, solvents, pesticides, motor oil, antifreeze, and batteries cannot ride along in Arvada trash carts. Jefferson County residents, including Arvada households on the Adams County side, use the Rooney Road facility in Golden, which operates by appointment only.

Only with a scheduled pickup. City waste customers can book on-demand curbside bulky pickup through Republic Services at 720-898-7575 for about $15 per item, prepaid, with items out by 7am. Unscheduled piles can draw code enforcement fines, which run $50 to $200 for repeat bin violations.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Arvada starts at $75 for a single item, and choosing curbside or driveway pickup takes $5 off. The first item covers the base pickup fee, and each additional piece of junk is a flat add-on, so your full total is confirmed before you book. Arvada's city bulk program charges about $15 per item.

Same-day pickup is often open across Arvada when you book early, from Olde Town to Candelas and Leyden Rock, and next-day covers the rest of Jefferson County. Enter your zip during booking to see live availability for your address and confirm the price upfront.

The city program skips a long list, including appliances with Freon, all electronics, tires, batteries, paint and chemicals, glass, and construction debris. Those need a private hauler or certified recycler. Arvada also runs two citywide bulky drop-off events a year, included in your trash fee, with proof of residency required.

Loaders sort when possible so items avoid the landfill. Usable furniture and goods go toward Colorado charities like ARC Thrift Stores, Goodwill, and Habitat for Humanity ReStore, while electronics route to certified e-waste recyclers whenever options allow. Donation and recycling depend on condition and acceptance.

Book online or by phone with an upfront price, then pick a date and time window. For curbside jobs you don't need to be home, just leave items out with access notes. For in-home pickups, someone should be present or provide entry instructions. Your Loader calls roughly 30 minutes before arrival.

Mainly the pricing and booking flow. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK, Junk King, and College Hunks charge by truckload and quote in person, so your price isn't set until the truck is in your driveway. LoadUp prices each item online and locks it in before anyone shows up, often less for one or two item jobs.
