The Problem

Getting rid of junk here is harder than it looks

You search online, call the county, request a few hauler quotes, and wait. One calls back, one wants to visit first, and one never answers. Weeks later, the junk is still sitting in your garage.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

County bulk collection can work well if your address qualifies and your items fit the rules. Pickups usually have to be scheduled ahead, item limits apply, and some things get turned away. You still have to drag everything to the curb yourself.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers won't give you a firm number until someone comes out to look. Then the quote depends on how much of the truck your stuff fills, which is hard to guess. You end up booking without knowing what the final bill will be.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift stores and charities have to be choosy. Stained upholstery, worn mattresses, and anything broken or outdated often gets refused. Most also expect you to load and drop off items yourself, so the stuff they won't take is still yours to deal with.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off sounds simple until you're arranging delivery and pickup windows, checking whether your HOA or deed restrictions allow it, and watching it take over the driveway for days. For a single room of junk, that's a lot of hassle and a lot of unused space.

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 handle the heavy part

Your Loader works a sleeper sofa down an older home's narrow hallway or out of a packed garage. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Carrollwood after each job.

Pickup Options

Left at the curb or hauled out from inside

If your items are already sitting on the driveway or just outside the garage door of a single-family lot, curbside pickup keeps things simple. For furniture still inside a home or a rental between tenants, full-service means your Loaders carry it out for you, which also helps in deed-restricted communities where you may not want items sitting in view outside.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Carrollwood and north Tampa, from the Veterans Expressway to the Hillsborough River

Florida weather has a sense of humor: you plan to haul that old sectional on Saturday, and by three the sky opens up like clockwork. In Carrollwood, summer storms and soggy yards make junk piles a real headache. Your Loader lifts, carries, and loads it between downpours, and genuinely likes showing up for neighbors here.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky furniture, worn-out appliances, and yard debris pile up fast in Carrollwood homes, so where items end up matters. Your Loader sorts each pickup by condition, aiming to keep usable things out of landfills when possible.

Local Disposal Rules

The Carrollwood disposal rules most residents don't know

An unsorted load of brush and household junk can be treated as trash and charged disposal fees, so these rules for Carrollwood and unincorporated Hillsborough County matter.

Rule 01

Apartment and condo residents have different drop-off access

Most multifamily developments, including apartments, condos, and townhomes, use commercial dumpsters instead of County curbside collection. Residents can still drop off household hazardous waste, recycling, paint, and electronics with a photo ID, but bulky waste drop-off is limited to County Solid Waste customers.

Rule 02

Rechargeable batteries need taped terminals before drop-off

Hillsborough County asks residents to cover lithium-ion, Ni-Cd, and NiMH battery terminals with clear packing tape or bag each battery separately, and never to dismantle them. Single-use alkaline batteries are the exception and go in the garbage cart, not the recycling bin.

Rule 03

Spring leaf season raises the weekly yard waste limit

The usual curbside cap is 2 cubic yards of yard waste weekly, but in February, March, and April the County allows 3 cubic yards. Limbs must stay under 4 feet long and 6 inches in diameter, and no container may exceed 50 pounds.

Rule 04

Pool chemicals and pesticides go to hazardous waste collections

Pool chemicals, paint thinner, pesticides, and fluorescent lamps are household hazardous waste in Hillsborough County and belong at County HHW collections, never in curbside carts. Quantity limits apply per item type, and loads are checked to see if they are business waste.

Rule 05

Your free bulky waste allowance resets every October 1

County Solid Waste customers get 10 cubic yards of free bulky waste and appliance disposal at Community Collection Centers each year. A loaded pickup holds about 2 cubic yards, and once the allowance runs out, loads go to a transfer station at commercial disposal rates.

Rule 06

Electronics drop-off is capped at five items per month

Community Collection Centers take household electronics, including personal and laptop computers, monitors, LCD/flat screen TVs, printers, scanners, copiers, and telephones/cellphones, from any county resident with a photo ID. The County accepts only five electronic items per household each month.

Not without a plan. Carrollwood is unincorporated, so Hillsborough County Solid Waste handles it. Bulky items like sofas and appliances don't go out with weekly pickup and need a scheduled special curbside pickup. Unscheduled piles can be treated as illegal dumping.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Carrollwood starts at $80 for the first item, which includes the pickup fee, and curbside pickup takes $5 off. Each additional item is a flat add-on, and the exact total is confirmed before booking. Hillsborough County's special curbside pickup generally runs $30 to $50 per item.

Same-day slots are sometimes available, depending on Loader schedules in the Tampa area. Enter your address when booking to see live availability. For curbside pickups you don't need to be home. For in-home pickups, someone should be there or you can leave access notes.

Bulky items such as furniture, appliances and mattresses can't go in your gray cart or weekly pickup. They need a paid special pickup, or you can self-haul to a county facility. Yard waste is capped at 2 cubic yards a week, with limbs under 4 feet long and 6 inches thick.

Loaders aim to keep usable items out of the landfill. Depending on acceptance, they try to route furniture and household goods to local donation partners and recyclable materials to recyclers. Items that can't be donated or recycled go to an appropriate disposal facility.

You pick your items and a time window online, and the total is shown before you confirm. On pickup day, your Loader heads to your Carrollwood address and does the lifting and loading. You only point out what's going, and the price you booked is the price you pay.

The main difference is the pricing model. College Hunks prices by the truck space your items take and gives a free estimate before work starts. LoadUp prices per item online and confirms the total before booking. For a few items that can be simpler, but a full cleanout may suit truckload pricing.
