The Problem

Getting rid of stuff in Houma takes more than one call

You search online, call the parish, leave messages with a couple of haulers, and wait. One calls back with a vague quote, another never does. Weeks later, everything is still sitting in the carport.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Municipal pickup schedules work fine for a few bags or a worn-out chair you can drag to the street yourself. Many items need a request first and may be refused, and nobody carries anything out of your house. Pickup happens on the program's timeline, not yours.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to look at the job in person before giving you a number, then price it by how much of the truck it fills. You often won't know the real total until the truck is loaded, when saying no gets awkward.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

A thrift store wants furniture that's clean, whole, and sellable, and in Gulf Coast humidity a lot of stored pieces don't pass. Stained mattresses, broken appliances, and damaged cabinets get turned away, so you still have to figure out what to do with them.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container sits in your driveway for days, may need a permit if it goes on the street, and blocks neighbors' parking. Then you still have to lift every box, bed frame, and old grill into it yourself. That's a lot of hassle for one room.

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.

Pickup Options

Left at the driveway or carried out from inside

Curbside works when the broken washer or storm-tossed fencing is already out on the driveway or under the carport. Pick full-service when items are still inside the house or packed into a backyard shed, and your Loaders carry everything out from where it sits.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Houma, from Bayou Terrebonne to the Intracoastal

Houma gives you months of heavy, wet heat, and hurricane season keeps one eye on the Gulf. Nobody should be wrestling a swollen dresser or a soggy sofa out of the shed in that. Your Loader handles the lifting, and showing up for neighbors who look out for each other is the best part of the job.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items pile up fast in Houma, and where they end up matters as much as getting them out. Your Loader sorts each piece by condition, so usable things are set aside for donation and the rest is handled responsibly.

Local Disposal Rules

The Houma disposal rules most residents don't know

Let junk pile up on your lot and Terrebonne Parish can order a cleanup or a screening fence, or remove it and bill the owner. Here's what applies in Houma.

Rule 01

Your own home project debris is allowed, contractor remodeling debris is not

Curbside bulky pickup in Terrebonne Parish accepts home project debris but prohibits commercial construction and remodeling debris, remnants of land clearing or demolition, and concrete. Concrete goes to the Ashland residential drop-off, the only parish drop-off location that lists it.

Rule 02

Eviction cleanouts and vacant lots get no curbside bulky pickup

The parish lists sites of eviction, vacant lots, private streets, and commercial property as prohibited locations for curbside bulky debris collection. Landlords clearing a former tenant's belongings or owners cleaning up an empty lot need a different disposal route.

Rule 03

Mardi Gras Day cancels garbage pickup across the parish

Terrebonne Parish suspends garbage collection on only four holidays: New Year's Day, Mardi Gras Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Service resumes on the next scheduled collection day, and carts should go back out no earlier than 5 PM the evening before.

Rule 04

Keep hurricane debris separate from your regular household garbage

After Hurricane Ida, parish emergency officials required household garbage to be separated from storm debris and asked residents to keep debris piles away from fire hydrants and telephone pedestals. Storm debris handling follows Louisiana DEQ and FEMA guidelines so the parish can be reimbursed.

Rule 05

Tires are banned at the curb but drop-off sites take four

Tires are on the parish's prohibited list for curbside bulky collection, along with propane tanks and automotive parts. The Ashland, Schriever, and Montegut residential drop-off locations each accept tires with a limit of four, plus batteries and vegetative debris.

Rule 06

Piles over two cubic yards need a separate pickup request

Twice-weekly garbage service only takes bundled bulky waste within limits of 2 cubic yards, 6 feet, and 50 pounds. Larger loads of appliances, furniture, or bagged leaves must be reported to the Solid Waste Department, and requests can be tracked online.

Not unless it falls under a scheduled collection. Piles left out outside normal pickup can be treated as illegal dumping, and Terrebonne Parish sets its own rules. Check with the parish solid waste office for current bulk item guidelines before setting anything out.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Houma 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, and the exact total is confirmed before booking.

Sometimes. Same-day slots depend on Loader availability near your address, so enter your zip code during booking to see live openings. If today is full, next-day is often available. Booking earlier in the day improves your chances.

Not for curbside or driveway pickups. Leave the items out with any access notes. For indoor pickups, someone should be there or you can leave entry instructions at booking. Your Loader typically gives notice before arriving.

Large bulky items, construction debris, and hazardous materials like paint, chemicals, and batteries are commonly excluded from standard household collection. Terrebonne Parish sets the specific limits, so confirm with the parish before curbing anything unusual.

Loaders aim to donate usable items and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance at local facilities. Items that can't be reused or recycled go to the appropriate disposal site. Outcomes vary by item condition, and none are guaranteed.

Pick your items online, enter your Houma address, and choose a time window. You see the total before you confirm. On pickup day your Loader arrives, removes the items, and handles the loading, so you don't have to lift anything.

Mostly pricing and booking. Traditional haulers usually charge by truck volume and often confirm the price on site. LoadUp prices per item online and shows the total before booking. For a large cleanout, a truckload hauler may still be worth comparing.
