When junk piles up, it gets old fast. In Shawnee, LoadUp gets it gone with a quick pickup and a real price shown before you book.
You look up the city's bulk rules, call a couple of haulers, and wait on quotes that never come back. Meanwhile, the junk stays put in the garage, and another weekend goes by.
City bulk pickup programs can help, but they usually have limits on what they take, how much you can set out, and when. You often have to request a pickup ahead of time and still drag everything to the curb yourself.
Many local haulers want to see the job in person before giving you a number, then price by how much of the truck you fill. You don't know the final cost until the truck is loaded and the job is done.
Donation centers only take items in good, resellable condition, and that's fair. A worn recliner, a stained mattress, or a broken dresser usually gets turned away, and you still have to load and drive everything there yourself.
A dumpster takes up your driveway for days, may need permission from your HOA or the city, and depends on delivery and pickup schedules. For one room of stuff, you're paying for space you won't use and still doing all the lifting.

Carrying an old treadmill up a narrow basement staircase takes planning, and your Loaders lift and maneuver it with care. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Shawnee after each job.
If everything is already stacked in your driveway or near the street, curbside pickup is the simpler choice. For a basement full of boxes or a dresser on the upper floor of a split-level, choose full-service and your Loaders will carry it out from where it sits.

Kansas weather has opinions, and so do the big trees in Shawnee yards. One spring storm and suddenly there are limbs in the driveway, a basement full of things you meant to sort, and no truck to haul it. Your Loaders lift, carry, and load it, and they genuinely enjoy showing up for neighbors here.
In an established suburb like Shawnee, big items pile up fast in garages and basements. Your Loader sorts each one by condition, so reusable pieces can be donated, recycled, or disposed of responsibly, when local options allow.
Furniture, appliances, and household goods in good, clean condition may be set aside for donation when local options allow. Your Loader lifts and loads them separately, so usable pieces have a chance at a second home.
Items that are worn or damaged but not donatable may be recycled where available, such as scrap metal or other reusable materials. Your Loader sorts what can be separated, though acceptance varies by item type.
Heavily damaged, soiled, or broken bulky items that cannot be reused or recycled are taken for responsible disposal. Your Loader carries them out of your Shawnee home, so you never have to make a dump run.
Prohibited items set out for bulky pickup stay at the curb, and yard waste swept into gutters violates city code. Here is what applies in Shawnee, Johnson County.
Push lawnmowers make Shawnee's accepted list for the annual curbside bulky pickup only when they hold no fuel or oil. Running the engine dry and draining the oil beforehand avoids a rejected item, and riding mowers do not appear on the accepted list.
City rules make residential recycling unlimited, so flattened boxes that overflow the recycling container can be set out alongside it at no extra charge. Every licensed trash company must collect recycling either weekly or every two weeks.
Shawnee requires licensed trash companies to offer one free bulky item pickup each calendar year. Beyond that, the city's landfill voucher, mailed with February's All Things Hometown newsletter, covers one free carload, truckload, or trailer up to 5 by 10 feet with proof of residency.
Wind and ice storms bring down limbs, and the city has opened a temporary branch drop-off site afterward for residents with proof of residency. Pushing branches, leaves, or grass clippings into streets, gutters, or creeks is illegal under city code because it clogs storm drains.
Construction materials, glass panels, and latex or oil-based paint are prohibited from Shawnee's curbside bulky pickup. Old carpet is the exception: rolls up to 4 feet long and weighing under 50 pounds are accepted, so cutting it down makes it eligible.
Shawnee's annual bulky pickup accepts most appliances, but refrigerators are specifically excluded. Taking one to the Johnson County Landfill with the city's voucher still costs extra, because appliances containing freon carry a separate fee even on a free drop-off.

Shawnee's bulky pickup excludes construction materials, glass panels, latex or oil-based paint, tires and automotive batteries. Carpet rolls must be under 4 feet long and 50 pounds. Refrigerators are also excluded. For items like these, check with your hauler or use a private service.
Yes. The city mails a Landfill Voucher in its February All Things Hometown newsletter. Residents show it with proof of residency for one free drop-off of a carload, truckload or trailer. It's a good free option if you can haul the load yourself.
Loaders aim to keep usable items out of the landfill. Whenever possible they donate items that are in good condition and recycle materials such as metal or electronics, depending on what local facilities will accept. Anything that can't be donated or recycled goes to an appropriate disposal facility.
You book online, choose your items and a time window, and see the total price before confirming. On pickup day your Loader typically calls or texts ahead of arrival, then carries the items out and loads them, so you don't have to lift anything.
The main difference is the pricing model. Truckload haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK? usually price by the volume of the load, often confirmed on site. LoadUp prices per item online, with the total confirmed before booking. For large cleanouts, a truckload rate may fit better.
