The Problem

Getting rid of junk in Asbury takes longer than it should

You look up pickup rules, call around to find out who actually handles your street, and ask a few haulers for quotes. One calls back, one never does. Weeks later, the junk is still sitting in the garage.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Asbury is its own city, separate from Dubuque, so Dubuque's city programs don't automatically cover you. When there is a free pickup option, it usually means calling ahead, working around a set schedule, and getting everything to the curb yourself. Some items get turned away.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to see the job before they'll give you a number, so you take time off for an estimate. Then the price depends on how much of the truck you fill, which is hard to guess ahead of time.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers need items they can resell, so anything stained, broken, or worn out may not be accepted. Even good pieces can get refused when space is tight, and you still have to load them, haul them over, and take back whatever they turn down.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A dumpster makes sense for a full remodel. For a basement corner or a few bulky pieces, you're booking delivery and pickup, checking for permits or HOA rules, and leaving a big steel bin in the driveway for days, while you still do all the lifting.

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 it out front or have it carried out

If the old treadmill or patio set is already in your garage or on the driveway, curbside pickup is the simpler fit. For anything still in a finished basement or upstairs bedroom, choose full-service and your Loaders will carry it out from where it sits.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Asbury, along Highway 20 and across the Dubuque area

Anyone who has driven these rolling Iowa roads with an old sectional strapped to a trailer knows the weather has opinions. Ice in January, storms in July, mud in April. Your Loaders would rather do the lifting while you stay inside, because the people of Asbury already have plenty to shovel.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items rarely end up in the same place, and that's true for every cleanout in Asbury. Your Loaders sort what they remove by condition, so usable pieces and worn-out ones each take a sensible path.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture, sports gear, and household goods that are clean and still working may be donated when possible. Your Loaders set those pieces aside and route them to donation channels where available.

  • Tax-deductible receipt by request
  • Diverts waste from landfill
  • Free up your space and help a neighbor

Visible Wear

Recycling

Items that are too worn to donate but still have recyclable parts, like metal frames or old electronics, may be diverted for recycling when local options allow. Your Loaders separate them during loading.

  • Materials sorted and recovered
  • Diverted from landfill where possible
  • Compliant with local waste regs

Heavily Damaged

Responsible Disposal

Heavily damaged or soiled bulky items, such as broken sofas or water-ruined furniture, are taken for responsible disposal. Your Loaders handle the lifting, so you don't have to haul anything yourself.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Asbury disposal rules most residents don't know

Banned items get rejected at the landfill and untagged bulky pieces may not be collected, so these rules matter for cleanouts in Asbury and throughout Dubuque County.

Rule 01

Major appliances must be stripped of refrigerants before landfill disposal

Iowa law bans landfilling major appliances until a permitted demanufacturing facility removes refrigerants, mercury-containing components and PCB capacitors. The rule keeps ozone-depleting chemicals and toxic metals out of the ground, so old refrigerators and freezers need a demanufacturing route first.

Rule 02

Spring curbside cleanup requires tags on bulky household items

During Asbury's spring garbage pickup, regular items go at no charge, but water heaters, appliances, bicycles, weight benches and treadmills, furniture, mattresses and gas grills each need a large item tag purchased at City Hall before setout.

Rule 03

Used motor oil from mowers and snowblowers is landfill-banned

Iowa prohibits disposing of used oil in landfills. Draining a lawn mower before winter storage or changing snowblower oil produces waste oil that belongs at a used oil collection point, never in the garbage cart, a storm drain or the ground.

Rule 04

Propane tanks stay out of the city's spring pickup

Asbury prohibits propane tanks at its spring curbside collection, even though gas grills themselves are accepted with a large item tag. Pressurized cylinders are a fire hazard inside collection trucks, so detach the tank before setting a grill out.

Rule 05

Car batteries are banned from Iowa landfills but retailers take them

Iowa prohibits lead-acid batteries in landfills, and retailers who sell them are required to accept used ones back. After a hard Iowa winter finishes off a car, truck or tractor battery, the store selling the replacement is a legal outlet.

Rule 06

Whole tires cannot go in the trash anywhere in Iowa

Iowa bans whole waste tires from landfills, so tires stacked in a garage or barn need a recycling or processing route instead. Tires left outdoors also collect rainwater, creating mosquito breeding spots through warm Iowa summers.

Not unless your hauler's bulk pickup rules allow it. I couldn't confirm a city-run bulk pickup program for Asbury. Items left out without a scheduled pickup can be treated as illegal dumping, so check with city hall or your trash hauler first.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Asbury starts at $85 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, and the exact total is confirmed before booking.

Often, yes, depending on Loader availability in the Dubuque area. Same-day and next-day slots are offered when open, and entering your address during booking shows what's available. Booking earlier in the day improves your odds of a same-day slot.

Paint, solvents, pesticides, and similar household chemicals generally can't go in regular trash or a junk load. The Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste Agency runs a household hazardous waste program for them. Confirm accepted items with the agency before dropping off.

Loaders aim to donate usable items to local charities and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance. Anything that can't be reused or recycled goes to a licensed disposal site. Outcomes vary by item condition and what local partners will take.

Choose your items online, enter your Asbury address, and pick a time window. You see the total before confirming. On pickup day, Loaders arrive, load the items, and haul them away. For curbside pickups you don't need to be home.

The difference is pricing and booking. Traditional haulers often price by truckload and may confirm the final cost on site. LoadUp prices per item online and confirms the total before booking. For a full-truck cleanout, a truckload hauler can be a better fit.
