The Problem

Getting rid of junk on the Range takes more than it should

You search online, call around about county options, leave messages with a couple of haulers, and maybe hear back from one. A few weeks later, the junk is still sitting in the garage.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Free municipal pickup schedules make sense for small towns, but they usually come with limits on bulky items, appliances, and electronics, plus advance sign-ups. In a small city like Aurora, you can't count on a program existing at all, and you still have to drag everything to the curb.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come look at the job before giving you a number, then charge by how much of the truck you fill. That means waiting days for a visit in a spread-out area, then a final bill that may not match the first quote.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers need things they can actually resell, so stained upholstery, worn-out appliances, and broken furniture often get turned away. That leaves you hauling some of the load back home, and in this corner of St. Louis County, the nearest drop-off can be a long drive away.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container makes sense for a full renovation, not a basement corner or one cluttered shed. You schedule the drop-off and pickup, find a spot on your lot or driveway that won't block anything, and still do all the lifting and loading yourself.

  • 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.

Background-checked Loaders who finish what they start

Steep basement stairs and a snowy path out to a detached garage are routine work for your Loaders, who are background-checked and rated by real locals in Aurora after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Set it by the driveway or leave it where it sits

If scrap lumber or an old dock section is already stacked at the end of your driveway, curbside is the simpler fit. When items are still down in a basement or out in a back shed on a wooded lot, full-service lets your Loaders carry everything out from where it sits.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Aurora, on the eastern edge of the Mesabi Iron Range

Winter up here runs long and the window for clearing out the shed or garage is short, so projects pile up right alongside the snow. Nobody wants to spend one good weekend hauling a load alone. Your Loaders like showing up for Aurora neighbors, and they take the lifting off your list.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items rarely fit in a trunk, so where they end up matters as much as getting them out. In Aurora, your Loader sorts each load by condition, favoring donation or recycling when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture, tools, and household goods that are clean and in working shape may be taken to a donation channel when local options allow. If you need documentation, contact the receiving organization directly.

  • 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 fit for donation may be separated for recycling where available. Metal, wood, and some appliances have options, though what's accepted varies by facility and item type.

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

Responsible Disposal

Heavily damaged, soiled, or broken bulky items that can't be reused or recycled go to an appropriate disposal site. Your Loader handles the lifting from garage, shed, or yard so nothing sits around.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Aurora disposal rules most residents don't know

A load with the wrong item can be turned away at the gate, costing you a second trip. Here is how disposal works in Aurora and St. Louis County.

Rule 01

Old tires are free to drop off, up to eight daily

St. Louis County accepts tires at the Aurora Transfer Station free of charge, with a limit of eight per day. Anyone clearing a garage stack of worn snow tires and summer sets should plan to split them across separate days.

Rule 02

Asbestos from older homes goes to only one county site

St. Louis County treats asbestos as a regulated waste, and the only county facility that takes it is the Regional Landfill east of Virginia. Suspect remodel materials should be kept out of demolition loads headed to the Aurora Transfer Station.

Rule 03

Aurora city garbage pickup requires the orange bags

Aurora residents must set out household garbage in the city's orange colored bags, sold in 13 gallon and 33 gallon sizes in bundles of ten at local stores. Aurora collection runs Mondays, while Town of White residents are collected Wednesdays.

Rule 04

Motor oil, antifreeze, and car batteries have free drop-off

The Aurora Transfer Station accepts motor oil, antifreeze, and auto batteries at no charge, plus drained oil filters up to six per trip. Garage and shop cleanouts can clear out these leftovers without putting them in household garbage bags.

Rule 05

Televisions and computer monitors are banned from Minnesota trash

Minnesota law requires televisions and computer monitors to be recycled, not thrown away. The Aurora Transfer Station is one of 11 St. Louis County electronics collection sites and charges a per-unit fee based on screen size. Electronics from businesses are not accepted.

Rule 06

Appliances are accepted free, but only two per trip

The Aurora Transfer Station takes appliances at no charge, capped at two per trip. Emptying a house of a freezer, washer, dryer, and stove means multiple runs, and county sites keep separate summer and winter hours that switch October 1 and April 15.

Not unless it is part of your regular trash service. Bulky items left at the curb without a scheduled pickup can be treated as illegal dumping. Check with Aurora City Hall or your trash hauler about bulk item rules, since details vary by provider.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Aurora starts at $95, and curbside or driveway pickup takes a flat $5 off. The first item includes the base pickup fee, and each additional item is a flat add-on charge. The exact total is confirmed before booking.

It depends on Loader availability in the Iron Range area that day. Enter your address during booking to see live options for same-day or next-day pickup. Aurora is a small city, so openings can differ from larger Twin Cities or Duluth-area markets.

Not for curbside or driveway pickups. Leave the items out with any access notes. For items inside your home, someone should be there, or you can leave access instructions at booking. Your Loader will typically message you before arriving.

Hazardous materials such as paint, solvents, chemicals, and fuel generally can't go in a normal junk load. In St. Louis County, these usually need a household hazardous waste drop-off. Confirm what qualifies with the county before disposal.

Loaders aim to donate usable items to local charities and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance. Items that can't be donated or recycled go to the appropriate disposal facility. Outcomes vary by item condition and what local facilities will take.

Pick your items online, enter your Aurora address, and choose an arrival window. The total is confirmed before you book. On pickup day, your Loader arrives, removes the items, and cleans up the area. Payment is handled after the job.

Mainly pricing and booking. Traditional haulers often price by truckload and may confirm the cost on site. LoadUp prices per item online, with the total confirmed before booking. For a large cleanout, a truckload hauler can sometimes be a better fit.
