The Problem

Getting junk out of Jenkins takes more than it should

You look up the county's bulky waste rules, leave a voicemail or two, and ask a few haulers for quotes. One comes out to look, another never calls back, and the pile is still sitting there weeks later.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

When there's a free municipal pickup schedule, it can save you a lot. But you usually have to request it ahead of time and wait for the next date, and many items aren't accepted. The bigger catch is that you still have to drag everything down to the road yourself, even off a steep hillside lot.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

A lot of haulers won't give you a number until someone comes out to look, and then the price depends on how full the truck gets. That's hard to judge ahead of time, so you agree to the job without really knowing what you'll pay.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donating makes sense for furniture and household goods that are in good shape. Thrift stores and charities turn down anything stained, broken, or worn out, and the closest drop-off may be a town or two away. You still have to load it, haul it there, and take back whatever they refuse.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container works for a full renovation, but it's a lot for one cleared-out room or an old shed. You have to schedule the drop-off and pickup, find a flat spot on a narrow road for it, and then do all the lifting yourself.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Set at the driveway or carried out from inside

If the old couch or scrap lumber is already sitting at the foot of your driveway or beside the road, curbside is the simpler route for your Loader. Choose full-service when items are stuck in a back bedroom, a crowded outbuilding, or up a steep yard, and your Loaders will carry them out from where they sit.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Jenkins, from town to the head of the hollow

Anyone who has tried to wrestle an oversized sofa down a steep driveway and onto a winding mountain road knows a pickup bed and a good attitude only go so far. Your Loaders handle the carrying, the loading, and the trip away, and they genuinely like showing up for the people of Jenkins.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Moving a heavy sofa, a stained mattress, or a water-damaged dresser out of a Jenkins home takes more than a truck. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, so reuse comes first when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household goods that are clean and still usable may be donated when possible. Your Loader sets those items aside and takes them toward donation where available, though nearby options can be limited.

  • 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 have recyclable parts, such as metal frames or old appliances, may be recycled when local options allow. Your Loader separates them from general debris during loading.

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

Heavily Damaged

Responsible Disposal

Heavily damaged, moldy, or soaked bulky items that can't be reused or recycled are taken for responsible disposal. Your Loader carries them out and loads them, whether they sit in a basement or on a steep driveway.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Jenkins disposal rules most residents don't know

Skipping required garbage service is a criminal violation with daily fines, so here is how disposal actually works for households in Jenkins and throughout Letcher County.

Rule 01

Old tires wait for Kentucky's free amnesty collections

Kentucky's Energy and Environment Cabinet holds waste tire amnesty events that rotate through the state's counties, and residents can drop off tires at no charge. Tires left outside collect rainwater and breed mosquitoes, so watch for the next Letcher County event.

Rule 02

Every household must carry county garbage service

Letcher County Ordinance No. 90-03 requires every household to sign up for the garbage pickup service in its magisterial district. Not signing up is a criminal violation, with a fine of $25 to $500 for each day it continues.

Rule 03

Brush burning hours shrink during Kentucky's fire hazard seasons

From February 15 through April 30 and from October 1 through December 15, Kentucky law bans outdoor burning between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. within 150 feet of woodland or brushland. That covers most wooded hollow properties around Jenkins.

Rule 04

Junk dumped near creeks becomes a county cleanup problem

Kentucky law prohibits open dumping. Letcher County Solid Waste runs the PRIDE program, which organizes volunteers to pick up garbage left beside roads and streams. In steep hollows, junk dumped near a creek bank can wash downstream when the water rises.

Rule 05

Extra household items go through a special pickup request

Letcher County Sanitation handles regular garbage collection and also picks up extra items. If a cleanout leaves you with more than your normal garbage, you can ask the county sanitation department for a special pickup. The department also takes dumpster requests.

Rule 06

Remodeling scraps like shingles cannot go in a burn pile

Kentucky's open burning rules limit home burning to natural plant material such as tree limbs and leaves. Shingles, treated or painted lumber, insulation, and other construction or demolition debris have to go to a permitted disposal facility instead.

Not unless it is part of your regular household trash service. Bulky items left outside without an arranged pickup can be treated as illegal dumping in Kentucky. Call Jenkins city hall to confirm what regular collection takes and whether bulk pickup is offered.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Jenkins starts at $85, 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. Traditional haulers usually price by truckload.

Same-day or next-day pickup is often available in Jenkins, but it depends on Loader schedules and your location in Letcher County. Enter your address at booking to see live availability. For curbside pickups you generally do not need to be home.

Hazardous materials like paint, chemicals, and fuel, plus large appliances and tires, are usually restricted from standard household trash and landfills. Rules vary by hauler and facility, so ask the city or your trash provider first. Loaders can handle many bulky items, but not hazardous waste.

Loaders aim to donate usable items and recycle materials whenever options allow, depending on acceptance by local charities and recyclers. Whatever can't be donated or recycled goes to an appropriate disposal facility. Outcomes vary by item condition and what nearby partners will take.

Book online, choose your items and a pickup window, and see your total before confirming. Loaders usually call or text before arriving, then remove the items and load them up. For in-home pickups, someone should be present or you can leave access instructions.

LoadUp prices per item online and confirms the total before anyone arrives. Truckload haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King often price by volume and may confirm the final cost on site. For a few items per-item pricing can be simpler, while a full cleanout may suit a truckload.
