The Problem

Getting rid of junk in Princeton takes longer than it should

You search online, call the city, leave a message for a hauler or two, and wait on callbacks that never come. Weeks later, the junk is still sitting in the garage, right where you left it.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Municipal pickup schedules can help, but they usually come with item limits, set collection dates, and rules on what qualifies. Appliances, building debris, and certain materials are often left out, and you still have to drag everything to the curb yourself.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come out and look before they quote, then price by how much of the truck you fill. You don't really know the total until the job is underway, and that guesswork makes it hard to plan.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers need items they can actually resell, so stained, broken, or worn pieces often get turned away. Even when something qualifies, you're the one loading it, hauling it over, and figuring out what to do with whatever they refuse.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container means booking a drop-off date and a pickup date, giving up driveway space, and possibly checking whether you need a permit. For a spare room or a few old appliances, it's a lot of hassle, and 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.

Loaders you can trust inside your home

Steep basement stairs and a tight turn at the landing are your Loader's job to navigate. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Princeton after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Left at the curb or carried out from inside

If an old treadmill or a pile of scrap lumber is already at the end of your driveway, curbside pickup keeps it simple. For things still in a detached garage, a basement, or a back bedroom, choose full-service and your Loader carries them out from where they sit.

Serving Princeton, from Courthouse Square to the edge of town

Between a shift at the Toyota plant and everything else a week holds, nobody wants to spend a rare free Saturday borrowing a truck for a dead chest freezer. Your Loader handles the lifting, loading, and hauling, and we love showing up for Princeton folks who'd rather spend that day on their own terms.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Big, bulky items are hard to move alone, and where they end up matters as much as getting them out. In Princeton, your Loader sorts each haul by condition, aiming to keep usable things out of the landfill.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture, appliances, and sporting goods in clean, working shape may be donated when local options allow. Your Loader can set these aside and take them along instead of mixing them with the rest of the load.

  • Tax-deductible receipt by request
  • Diverts waste from landfill
  • Free up your space and help a neighbor
See donation pickup
Visible Wear

Recycling

Items that are worn or damaged but not ready for donation, like bent metal frames or broken appliances, may be recycled where available. Your Loader hauls them away so you don't have to sort anything.

  • Materials sorted and recovered
  • Diverted from landfill where possible
  • Compliant with local waste regs
See common questions
Heavily Damaged

Responsible Disposal

Heavily damaged or soiled pieces, such as water-ruined furniture or rotted lumber, go to responsible disposal. Your Loader loads and hauls them off, and what's accepted can vary by item.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Princeton disposal rules most residents don't know

Bring a banned item to the wrong site and it gets turned away. These rules decide where each piece of a cleanout goes in Princeton and across Gibson County.

Rule 01

Remodel fixtures are welcome but building materials are not

The county's Large Trash and Compost Yard accepts bath vanities, counter tops, commodes, doors, windows, and carpet and carpet pad, yet it takes no construction materials. Drywall, lumber, insulation, roofing, vinyl siding, laminates, hardwood flooring and decking are all turned away.

Rule 02

Princeton bulk pickup runs on purchased tags

Princeton sells bulk item tags through the water billing department, and pickups are scheduled as needed after tagged items join the collection list. The city will not pick up tires or LP tanks, though the county compost yard takes both, charging for tires.

Rule 03

One Princeton site handles every county television and computer

The Recycle Center in Princeton is the only Gibson County site enabled to take e-waste, including televisions, computers and their accessories. Electronic accessories are free, while monitors and televisions carry a fee, and the compost yard sends all electronics there.

Rule 04

Downed limbs over six feet must be cut first

Princeton's Street Department will take addresses for limb pickup, but collection runs as time allows rather than on a set day. Limbs longer than 6 feet must be cut into smaller pieces, and the county compost yard also takes brush but refuses tree stumps.

Rule 05

County drop-off sites are free but closed to outsiders

Gibson County Solid Waste runs 11 transfer stations, and other than televisions, monitors and tires, trash and recycling services are free to county residents. The district does not accept trash from other counties or states, and businesses are asked not to use the sites.

Rule 06

Refrigerators skip the compost yard and go to the Recycle Center

The Large Trash and Compost Yard takes washers and dryers, stoves, water heaters and microwaves, but refrigerators and any appliances with Freon must go to the Recycle Center in Princeton instead. Lawnmowers are accepted at the yard only with the gas and oil removed.

Not as a general rule. Gibson County does not run a free curbside bulk pickup that I could confirm, and items left out without a hauler can count as illegal dumping. Check with the city and your trash provider for current bulk rules before setting anything out.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Princeton 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.

Often yes. Same-day or next-day pickup is offered in Princeton when you book before 2PM, depending on availability. For curbside jobs you generally don't need to be home. For in-home pickups, someone should be present or leave access instructions.

The Gibson County Solid Waste Princeton site and Recycle Center is at 771 Old US Hwy 41 N. Hours are Tuesday through Friday 10 am to 5:50 pm and Saturday 7 am to 2:50 pm. Fees vary by item, so confirm with the district before you load up.

Household hazardous waste like gasoline, car batteries, pesticides, and antifreeze needs special handling. Gibson County Solid Waste only accepts these items at its Spring and Fall HHW Days, so a hauler can't simply take them with other junk.

Loaders aim to donate items in good condition and try to recycle what they can, depending on acceptance. Items that can't be donated or recycled go to an appropriate disposal facility. Outcomes vary by item and local options at the time of pickup.

You book online, choose your item and pickup spot, and see the price before confirming. A Loader typically gives notice before arriving, then removes the items from the curb, driveway, or inside your home. No in-person estimate is needed beforehand.

The main difference is the pricing model. Traditional haulers often price by truckload and may confirm the price on site. LoadUp prices per item online and confirms the total before booking. For a large cleanout, a truckload quote can be a better fit.
