Junk has a way of piling up until dealing with it feels like a chore of its own. Book LoadUp for a quick pickup and see your real price before you commit.
You look up the village's options, call around, and ask a few haulers for quotes. One calls back, one wants to visit first, and one never replies. Weeks go by, and the junk is still in the garage.
Municipal pickup schedules can handle a lot, but they usually limit what goes out, how much, and when. Appliances, renovation debris, or a full basement cleanout may not count. Even when an item qualifies, someone still has to drag it to the curb.
A lot of haulers won't give you a number until someone comes out to look. After that, the price depends on how much of the truck you fill, so you can't be sure what you'll pay until the old dresser and boxes are already loaded.
Donation centers want items they can resell, so stained upholstery, scratched tables, and outdated electronics often get turned away. They can also refuse an item because of its size or a safety concern. Plus, you still have to load it and drive it there.
A dumpster makes sense for a whole-house gut job. For an old recliner and a few bags of yard debris, it's a lot: you have to schedule delivery and pickup, you might need a permit, and a big steel bin can sit in your driveway for days while neighbors watch.

A packed basement with a narrow stairwell or a detached garage stacked to the rafters is routine work for your Loaders. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Sunnyside after each job.
If the old patio set or a broken grill is already out on your driveway, curbside pickup keeps things simple. Choose full-service when a dresser is stuck upstairs or Chain O'Lakes summer gear is packed deep in a shed, and your Loaders will carry it out for you.

Around here, lake season makes weekends precious, and nobody wants to spend one wrestling a rusted grill or a busted patio set into a borrowed truck. Your Loaders carry it out of the garage, shed, or yard and load it up themselves, because Sunnyside neighbors deserve a Saturday spent on the porch instead.
Bulky items rarely fit in a regular trash bin, so what happens after pickup matters in Sunnyside. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, and when local options allow, usable pieces stay out of the landfill.
Furniture, appliances, and sporting goods that are clean and in working shape may be set aside for donation when possible and local options allow. Availability varies, so donation is never guaranteed.
Items that are worn or damaged but not fit for reuse, such as old electronics or metal-framed pieces, may be taken to recycling where available. Your Loader separates them from the rest of the load.
Heavily damaged or contaminated bulky items, like soaked mattresses or broken construction debris, go to an appropriate disposal site. Your Loader handles the lifting and loading so you never haul it yourself.
Miss a once-a-year county collection or throw out a landfill-banned item, and you end up storing it or breaking state law. These rules apply in Sunnyside and across McHenry County.
Illinois has banned white goods, meaning large appliances, from landfills since July 1, 1994, unless the regulated white good components are removed first. That means a dead basement freezer or washer can't go out with ordinary garbage.
The McHenry County Department of Health says latex paint is not a hazardous waste and points residents to latex paint recycling locations. Its free one-day collection with Illinois EPA takes oil-based paints, thinners, antifreeze, and pesticides. It refuses suspected commercial or agricultural materials.
Starting January 1, 2026, Illinois law requires all household batteries, including alkaline, primary, and rechargeable types, to be recycled. They can't go in regular trash or curbside recycling. A statewide program now provides free drop-off locations.
Some township specialized recycling in McHenry County runs only April through October. Nunda Township's permanent daily drop-off stays open all year. It accepts cardboard, newspaper, magazines, glass bottles and jars, and metal cans, which helps when a cold-weather cleanout fills the garage with boxes.
Illinois bans out-of-service mercury-switch thermostats from landfills. The law also prohibits mixing them with any other solid waste headed to a landfill. If a remodel turns up an older thermostat, it has to be recycled separately instead of going in the garbage.
Illinois' Electronic Products Recycling and Reuse Act bans many electronic products from landfills. McHenry County's recycling events accept electronics, but fees apply and residents must register ahead of time. Many local small-electronics drop-offs take no TVs or monitors.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Sunnyside starts at $80 for the first item, which includes the pickup fee. Each additional item is a flat add-on charge, and the exact total is confirmed before booking. Curbside or driveway pickup takes $5 off the base price.
Same-day pickup is sometimes available, depending on Loader schedules in the McHenry and Johnsburg area. Enter your address when booking to see live availability for your date. Next-day and scheduled slots are usually easier to get.
For curbside or driveway pickups, no. Leave the items out with access notes. For items inside the home, someone should be present, or you can leave access instructions when booking. You also get a heads-up before the Loader arrives.
Items like paint, chemicals, batteries, and other hazardous materials generally can't go in regular trash or junk loads. Take them to a household hazardous waste collection program instead. Ask your hauler or the county about current drop-off options and dates.
Loaders aim to keep usable items out of the landfill whenever possible. Furniture and household goods may go to local donation centers, and recyclable materials go to recyclers, depending on acceptance. Anything that can't be donated or recycled is taken to an appropriate disposal facility.
