The Problem

Getting junk out of Dale takes more than a truck

You call the town office, then the county, then a couple of haulers. One quotes vaguely, one never calls back, and the pile in the shed waits another season while weekends keep slipping away.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Small towns like Dale may not run a regular bulk pickup at all, and where municipal pickup schedules exist, they often limit item types, require a call ahead, and still expect you to drag everything to the road yourself.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many independent haulers want to drive out and look before naming a price, then charge by how much of the truck you fill. You won't know the real total until the load is on, and by then it's hard to say no.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift and resale shops need items they can actually sell, so a worn recliner or a chipped dresser often gets turned away. Rural drop-off spots can also be a long drive, with limited hours and no help unloading.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off sits in your driveway for days, may tear up a soft gravel lane, and still leaves every heavy lift to you. For a single garage, basement, or spare room, that's a lot of steel for a modest pile.

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, rated, and ready for the heavy lifting

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Driveway grab or carried out from where it sits

If the old recliner or broken mower is already outside, at the end of a long gravel drive or beside a detached garage, curbside is the simpler fit. For anything still upstairs, down in the basement, or wedged in the back of a shed, choose full-service and your Loaders will carry it out for you.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Dale and the back roads down toward the Ohio River

Around here plenty of folks own a pickup, yet a full bed still costs you a Saturday of wrestling, strapping, and driving. Your Loader does the lifting, loading, and hauling instead, so the weekend stays yours. Dale is a town where neighbors pitch in, and showing up for you is the part we like best.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items pile up fast on rural properties, and knowing where they end up matters. In Dale, your Loader sorts each load by condition, so usable pieces and recyclable materials stay out of the landfill when local options allow.

Local Disposal Rules

The Dale disposal rules most residents don't know

Dumped junk in unincorporated Spencer County can lead to a law enforcement case report, so here is how disposal actually works for Dale residents and Spencer County households.

Rule 01

Tires have a year-round home outside the trash

Spencer County Solid Waste Management District accepts tires all year at its office and warehouse just east of the Chrisney Drop-Off Center. The district has also held June Tire Amnesty Days for county residents, with details typically posted in spring.

Rule 02

Worn-out books can be recycled at Dale's drop-off

Books that are outdated or in poor condition do not need to be trashed. Any Spencer County district drop-off center, including the one in Dale, takes them for recycling anytime the center is open.

Rule 03

Old TVs and computers count as problem waste here

Indiana law has kept televisions, computer monitors and computers out of household trash since 2011. Spencer County's solid waste district lists e-waste as problem waste, accepted Monday through Friday at the District Business Office in Chrisney.

Rule 04

Burning cleanout trash runs into a county ordinance

Spencer County adopted a burn ordinance aimed at the air pollution and fire hazards of outdoor burning and burning trash. Before lighting a burn barrel or brush pile after a cleanout, check what the ordinance allows in your area.

Rule 05

Chrisney is the county's only drop-off for large items

Of the seven Spencer County Solid Waste Management District drop-off centers, only Chrisney is set up to take large items, and only from residents. Inside town limits, Dale residents schedule old appliance and large item pickup through GFL Environmental instead.

Rule 06

Motor oil bottles stay out of the recycling cart

The district's recycling vendor rejects motor oil bottles even when they carry the HDPE #2 mark. Used motor oil itself, along with paint, household chemicals, pesticides and herbicides, is accepted as problem waste at the District Business Office on weekdays.

Not unless your trash hauler has told you it takes bulk items. Dale has residential garbage service, but standard pickup generally covers bagged household trash, not furniture or cleanouts. Call your hauler first, since junk left out uninvited can be treated as illegal dumping.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Dale starts at $80 for a single item, and curbside or driveway pickup takes $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.

Sometimes. Availability depends on how many Loaders are working Spencer County that day, and rural areas like Dale can have fewer open slots than larger cities. Enter your address when booking to see the real openings. Next-day is often easier to get.

No, not for curbside or driveway pickups. You can leave items out with access notes. For items inside a house, garage or barn, someone should be there, or you can give access instructions when you book. Your Loader messages you before arriving.

Paint, chemicals and similar items usually can't go in regular trash. The Spencer County Solid Waste Management District, at 918 E County Road 800 N in Chrisney, runs recycling and household hazardous waste programs. Call 812-362-7401 to confirm what it accepts and when.

Loaders try to donate usable items, recycle what can be recycled, and send the rest to proper disposal. What happens to each item depends on its condition and on what nearby donation centers and recyclers will accept. Nothing is guaranteed, but landfill is the last option.

Book online, pick your items and a time window, and see your total price before confirming. On pickup day your Loader contacts you ahead of arrival, then loads the items and hauls them away. You don't need to move anything yourself or be there for outdoor pickups.

Many traditional haulers, such as 1-800-GOT-JUNK, price by truckload and may confirm the cost on site. LoadUp prices per item online and locks in the total before booking. For a few items that is often simpler, while a full property cleanout can suit a truckload hauler.
