The Problem

Getting rid of junk in Evansville shouldn't take weeks

You search online, call the city's line, leave voicemails for a few haulers, and wait. One sends a vague quote, another never calls back. Meanwhile the pile in the garage hasn't moved an inch.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Evansville's bulk pickup can save you money, but it usually comes with item limits, a request you have to schedule ahead, and exclusions for things like certain appliances or renovation debris. You still have to drag everything to the curb yourself, which is a real problem for a sofa on the second floor.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many local haulers want to see the job in person before quoting, then price by fractions of a truckload you can't really picture. The number you hear on the phone can change once they arrive, so you don't know the real cost until the truck is already in your driveway.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift stores and charities have good reasons to turn things down. Stained mattresses, worn recliners, and older electronics often get refused at the dock. And you still need a vehicle big enough to get there, plus a plan for whatever they won't accept.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A dumpster makes sense for a gut renovation, but not for clearing out one spare room. On tight older streets near downtown, a roll-off can block the curb or need a street permit, and you have to book delivery and pickup around someone else's schedule.

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.

Background-checked Loaders who handle the tricky carry-outs

Your Loader works a dresser up a steep, narrow cellar stairway and out a tight back door. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Evansville after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Set it out front or leave it where it sits

If the old grill or patio set is already sitting on the driveway of a newer east-side home, curbside (outdoor) pickup lets your Loader load it straight from there. For a sleeper sofa in an upstairs unit of an older converted house, choose full-service, and your Loaders will carry it out from the room it's in.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Evansville, north and south of the Lloyd Expressway

Wrestling a sofa into a borrowed pickup during an Ohio Valley July, with humidity hanging on you like a wet towel, is nobody's idea of a free Saturday. Your Loader does the lifting, carrying, and loading instead, and everyone at LoadUp genuinely likes showing up for Evansville neighbors who'd rather spend the weekend in the shade.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items rarely end up in one place, and Evansville homes produce everything from worn sofas to broken appliances. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, so reusable pieces have a chance at a second life and less goes to waste.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household goods that are clean and in good shape may be set aside for donation when local options allow. Your Loader handles the lifting and loading, and acceptance depends on current needs.

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

Visible Wear

Recycling

Items that are worn or damaged but not fit for donation, like old metal frames or appliances, may be recycled where available. Your Loader separates them during loading so reusable materials have a chance.

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

Heavily Damaged

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Evansville disposal rules most residents don't know

Put out an item that doesn't qualify, or try during fall leaf season, and it stays at your curb. These rules apply in Evansville and Vanderburgh County.

Rule 01

Gasoline and pool chemicals wait for Tox-Away Day

The Vanderburgh County Solid Waste District's Tox-Away Day, held in spring and fall, takes gasoline, oil-based paint, pesticides, pool chemicals, propane canisters, and fire extinguishers from county households for free. Latex paint, appliances, and electronics are not accepted.

Rule 02

A mattress and box spring count as one pickup

Evansville's free heavy trash service takes one item per pickup, except pairs such as a mattress and box spring or a table and chairs. Pickups can run every two weeks but pause from November through mid-December for leaf collection.

Rule 03

Bulk cardboard can still go to Laubscher Meadows landfill

The Solid Waste District no longer runs its monthly Saturday recycling drop-offs. Laubscher Meadows landfill still accepts cardboard, newspaper, #1 through #7 plastics, metal food cans, and aluminum cans for free during normal business hours.

Rule 04

Refrigerators and freezers need a certified refrigerant tag first

A refrigerator or freezer qualifies for Evansville heavy trash pickup only after its refrigerants are removed and the unit is tagged by a certified professional, per the City's safety guidelines. Stoves, washers, dryers, microwaves, and water heaters are accepted without that step.

Rule 05

Swing sets and oversized items need a separate pickup

Heavy trash items must be light enough for two people to lift and small enough to fit inside a standard collection truck. Anything larger, like a swing set, needs its own special pickup, and the utility suggests getting a removal quote.

Rule 06

TVs and computers are barred from heavy trash pickup

Heavy trash collection excludes TVs, computers, and computer parts or accessories because they may contain heavy metals like mercury, lead, and hexavalent chromium. The county's electronics recycling program serves households only and does not accept copy machines or microwaves.

Not unless it fits your regular trash service rules. Bulk piles left out with no scheduled pickup can be treated as illegal dumping. Rules and schedules vary by hauler and address, so confirm with your trash provider before setting anything out.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Evansville starts at $80, 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 charge, and the exact total is confirmed before booking. Truckload haulers usually quote by volume.

Often, depending on Loader availability for your address and the time you book. Enter your address during booking to see live openings for same-day or upcoming days. Availability can vary by day, so earlier booking gives you more time slots.

Not for curbside or driveway pickups, as long as the items are accessible and you leave any notes. For items inside your home, someone should be present or you can give access instructions when booking. Your Loader typically notifies you before arriving.

Hazardous items like paint, chemicals, batteries, and some electronics are generally not accepted in standard household trash. Large or restricted items may also need special handling. Check with Vanderburgh County's solid waste district about local drop-off options for hazardous materials.

Loaders aim to donate usable items to local charities and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance. Items that can't be reused or recycled go to an appropriate disposal facility. Outcomes depend on condition and what local partners will take.

You pick your items and address online, choose a time window, and see your exact price before confirming. On pickup day, your Loader arrives, confirms the items, removes them, and handles loading. You don't need to move anything to a truck yourself.

The main difference is pricing and booking. Traditional haulers often price by truckload and may confirm cost on site. LoadUp prices per item online, with the total confirmed before booking. For large cleanouts, a truckload hauler can sometimes be the better fit.
