When junk keeps piling up, it stops being a small chore and starts weighing on you. Book LoadUp for a quick pickup in Brewer, with the price shown before you commit.
You check the city website, call public works, leave voicemails for a couple of haulers, and wait on quotes that never come. Another weekend goes by, and the junk is still sitting in the garage.
Municipal pickup schedules make sense for the occasional bulky item. But you usually have to plan around set dates, follow item limits and prep rules, and get everything to the curb yourself. Some things may not qualify at all, which leaves you stuck with them.
Lots of haulers want to come look before they give you a number, so you lose an afternoon just getting a quote. Then the price depends on how full their truck gets, and you won't know what you actually owe until the job is done.
Giving things away feels good, as long as the item is clean, working, and something people want. Worn mattresses, scuffed furniture, and old appliances often get turned down, and you're still the one hauling them there and back again.
A roll-off sounds simple until you're arranging delivery, checking whether you need a permit, and watching it take over your driveway for days. For one cluttered basement or a single room, it's more container and more hassle than you need.

If the old recliner or a pile of yard debris from fall cleanup is already in your driveway, curbside (outdoor) service is a simple fit. If you have furniture in the basement or an upstairs bedroom of an older Brewer home, or a garage packed with winter storage, choose full-service and your Loaders will carry everything out for you.

Anyone who has lived through a Maine winter knows the garage turns into a storage locker for everything you swore you'd deal with by spring. Then the snow melts and the pile is still there. Your Loaders carry it out of basements, sheds, and garages, because Brewer neighbors have shoveled enough already.
Big, bulky items are hard to move alone, and what happens to them afterward matters just as much. In Brewer, your Loaders sort each item by condition, so donation, recycling, or disposal fits what you're clearing out.
Sofas, dressers, and other items in good, clean condition may be donated when possible. Your Loader sets them aside for that path, though donation depends on local options and no receipt is promised.
Items that are worn or damaged but not donatable may be recycled where available. Your Loaders separate materials like metal, wood, and cardboard so more can be reused when local options allow.
Heavily damaged or contaminated bulky items, like soaked mattresses or broken furniture, are disposed of responsibly. Your Loaders handle the lifting and loading, so you don't need to haul anything to a transfer station.
Prohibited items set out with Brewer's weekly trash are not picked up, so these rules for Brewer households in Penobscot County determine where each piece of a cleanout can go.
Check small camp stove and heater cylinders first, because the Brewer Landfill does not accept propane tanks smaller than 20 pounds. A 20-pound tank is accepted for $5 and larger tanks for $20, and non-resident vehicles are not permitted.
Regular curbside trash excludes brush, branches and leaves. Each spring Brewer collects brush, leaves and metals curbside, starting May 4 in 2026 and moving from the Eddington end toward Orrington. Lumber and building materials do not count as tree waste, and stumps are excluded.
Weekly curbside service covers properties with one to four dwelling units, at five bags per household weighing 40 pounds or less each. Extra bags need orange Brewer trash tags, sold at City Hall, Brewer Public Library, or online.
Maine's Department of Environmental Protection requires every municipality to collect and recycle universal waste. In Brewer that includes cathode ray tube TVs and monitors, computers and most other electronic equipment, and fluorescent light bulbs, accepted at the wastewater treatment plant from Brewer residents only.
Material from major repairs is barred from curbside trash. Brewer's construction and demolition debris landfill is limited to Brewer residents, opens the first and third Saturday of each month year-round, and every vehicle entering must carry a permit card issued at the gatehouse.
Brewer's curbside rules exclude mattresses, box springs, couches, chairs and carpets, and the spring clean-up does not take mattresses or furniture either. The Brewer Landfill accepts mattresses for a set fee, currently $15 for a mattress and box spring or a mattress alone.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Brewer starts at $80 for a single item, and curbside or driveway pickup takes $5 off. The first item includes the base pickup fee, and each additional item is a flat add-on charge. Your exact total is confirmed before booking.
Sometimes, depending on Loader availability in your area. Enter your address during booking to see the live time slots for Brewer, including same-day or next-day openings. Availability is tighter on weekends and at the end of the month.
For curbside or driveway pickups, no. Leave the items out with access notes. For items inside your home, someone should be there, or you can give access instructions when you book. Your Loader messages you before arriving.
Hazardous materials such as paint, solvents, batteries, and propane tanks usually can't go out with household trash. Large items, construction debris, and appliances often need a special drop-off or a paid hauler. Check with Brewer Public Works for current local limits.
Loaders try to keep usable items out of the landfill. Whenever possible they donate items in good shape to local charities and recycle what they can, depending on what facilities accept. Whatever can't be donated or recycled goes to an appropriate disposal facility.
You choose your items online, pick a time window, and see your price before you confirm. On pickup day, your Loader arrives, confirms the items, and removes and loads them. You don't need to haul anything to the curb unless you want the curbside discount.
The main difference is the pricing model. Many traditional haulers, including 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King, price by truck space and may confirm the final cost on site. LoadUp prices per item online and confirms the total before booking. For a full-truck cleanout, a truckload hauler can be a better fit.
