Junk has a way of piling up until it's one more thing on the list. Book LoadUp, see your price upfront, and get it picked up fast, right from your Mendota Heights home.
You search the city website, call your trash hauler, and request a few quotes. One company never calls back, another wants to stop by first. Weeks go by, and the junk is still sitting in the garage.
Here, trash service runs through private haulers, not a city truck. That means any bulk pickup depends on your hauler's rules, which can include item limits, extra charges, and scheduling ahead. You still have to drag everything to the curb yourself.
A lot of haulers won't give you a number until someone walks through your basement. After that, the price depends on how much of the truck your stuff fills, so you won't know what you're paying until the job is already half done.
Thrift stores and charities need things they can resell, so stains, broken frames, missing parts, and old mattresses usually get turned away. Even if they take your good pieces, you're the one loading the car and finding a spot for everything they won't accept.
A roll-off container sits in your driveway for days, scuffs the pavement, and makes the neighbors wonder what's going on. You still carry every load out and toss it in yourself, and the delivery and pickup have to fit the rental company's schedule.

Most Mendota Heights homes are established single-family houses with driveways, so if your old grill or bagged yard debris is already outside, curbside keeps things simple. For a treadmill in the basement or years of stored boxes on garage shelves, full-service has your Loaders carry everything out from inside.

Minnesota winters turn the garage and basement into a holding pen for everything you will deal with in spring, and then the thaw arrives and the pile is still there. Your Loaders do the lifting, from the stairs to the truck. They like showing up for Mendota Heights neighbors who just want the garage back.
Big, bulky items rarely end up in the same place, which is why where things go after pickup matters in Mendota Heights. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, favoring donation or recycling when local options allow.
Furniture, housewares, and sporting goods in good, clean condition may be taken by your Loader to a donation channel when local options allow. Availability varies, and no paperwork or receipt is promised.
Items that are worn or damaged but not donatable, like metal frames or old electronics, may be set aside by your Loader for recycling where available. Acceptance varies by facility and changes over time.
Heavily damaged or soiled bulky items, such as broken furniture or ruined carpet, are loaded by your Loader and taken for responsible disposal at an appropriate local facility, since not everything can be reused.
If an item goes to the wrong place, you can get turned away at a drop-off or end up sending debris into local waters. These are the rules in Mendota Heights and Dakota County.
Dakota County residents can drop off unwanted ammunition at The Recycling Zone in Eagan. Local recycling guidance asks residents not to bring it to their police department. The same facility takes paint, automotive oil, chemicals, cleaners and fertilizers for free.
Mendota Heights requires trash and recycling containers to be hidden from the street and from neighboring properties outside collection times. You can set carts out after 6 p.m. the night before pickup, at the end of the driveway about three feet behind the curb.
Minnesota law keeps major appliances out of household trash. The Recycling Zone also does not accept appliances, including dehumidifiers, microwaves and water heaters. Your local options are a retailer take-back when you buy a new unit, or an appliance recycler that charges its own fees.
Every storm drain in Mendota Heights leads to a nearby lake or river. During fall yard cleanup, the city asks residents to keep leaves off paved surfaces and out of the storm drains near their homes to protect local surface waters.
Minnesota does not allow waste tires to be disposed of in landfills. The Recycling Zone in Eagan accepts tires for a fee that varies by tire size, so getting rid of worn sets means planning a separate trip.
At The Recycling Zone, televisions and monitors cost $10 each to recycle. Laptops, tablets, desktop printers and stereos are free. Small household electronics are also free, including the small heaters and portable fans people clear out as the seasons change.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Mendota Heights starts at $95 for a single item, 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. Your exact total is confirmed before booking.
Often, depending on the day's schedule. Same-day and next-day slots open up in many areas, but availability changes with demand. Enter your address during booking to see the live options for Mendota Heights, including Friendly Hills and Ivy Falls.
Not for curbside or driveway pickups. You can leave items out and add access notes at booking. For items inside the home, someone should be there, or you can give entry instructions ahead of time. Your Loader sends a heads-up before arriving.
Hazardous items such as paint, solvents, pesticides, and batteries generally can't go in household trash or a standard junk load. Dakota County runs household hazardous waste programs for residents, so check the county's current drop-off rules and hours first. Large or bulky items often need a separately arranged pickup.
Loaders aim to donate usable items to local charities and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance. Items that can't be reused or recycled go to the appropriate disposal facility. Outcomes vary by item condition, so donation or recycling can't be guaranteed for every load.
You pick your items and a time slot online, and see your total before you confirm. On pickup day, your Loader arrives in the scheduled window, removes the items from where you've pointed, and hauls them away. You don't need to move anything yourself.
The main difference is pricing and booking. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King typically price by truckload, often confirmed with an estimate on site. LoadUp prices per item online with the total shown before booking. For a full garage cleanout, a truckload hauler can be the better fit.
