The Problem

Getting rid of junk in Gates shouldn't take weeks

You look up the town's pickup rules, call to ask what qualifies, request a few hauler quotes, and hear back from maybe one. Meanwhile, the pile in the garage hasn't moved since last month.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Municipal pickup schedules can work if your items qualify and your timing lines up. Many programs limit what they accept, require you to request a spot ahead of time, and expect everything at the road by a set day. You still have to carry it there yourself.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come out for an in-person estimate before they'll give you a number, then price by how much of the truck you fill. You often don't know the final cost until the crew is standing in your driveway.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers need items they can actually resell, so stained upholstery, worn appliances, and broken pieces often get turned away. Even when something qualifies, you're usually the one loading it, driving it over, and hoping they have space that day.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container means booking drop-off and pickup dates, possibly checking whether you need a permit, and losing your driveway for days. For a single room or a few bulky pieces, that's a lot of steel, waiting, and side-eye from the neighbors.

  1. Get your instant price

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.

Serving Gates and the greater Rochester area

Lake-effect snow has strong opinions about your weekend, and hauling an old dresser down an icy driveway should not be part of the plan. Your Loader does the lifting, carrying, and loading, from basement stairs to garage corners, in whatever Western New York weather shows up. Your Loaders genuinely enjoy showing up for Gates neighbors.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items can be hard to move alone, and where they end up matters as much as getting them out. In Gates, your Loader sorts each load by condition, favoring donation or recycling when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household goods that are clean and in good shape may be set aside by your Loader for donation, when local options allow. Availability varies, so donation is never guaranteed for any item.

  • 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 not donatable may be recycled where available. Your Loader separates materials like metal or wood when possible, though Monroe County and state rules can limit what is accepted.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Gates disposal rules most residents don't know

Putting banned items at the curb or burning debris can bring a state violation, so here is how disposal actually works in Gates and across Monroe County.

Rule 01

Cordless snow blower batteries cannot go in the trash

New York's rechargeable battery law bans rechargeable batteries from household garbage. That includes the lithium-ion packs from cordless snow blowers, leaf blowers and drills. Stores that sell these batteries must take them back for free.

Rule 02

Old TVs and computers are banned from the trash

Since 2015, New York has barred residents from putting covered electronics in the trash. These include televisions, computers, computer monitors, printers and video game consoles. Manufacturers must fund free recycling, and Monroe County's ecopark accepts electronics from residents.

Rule 03

Brush burning is off the table in Gates

New York's open burning rule allows residential brush fires only in towns with fewer than 20,000 people, and Gates is well above that. Burning trash, old furniture or treated lumber is banned everywhere in the state, no matter the town's size.

Rule 04

Refrigerant must be removed before appliances are scrapped

Under the federal Clean Air Act, refrigerant must be properly recovered from refrigerators, freezers, dehumidifiers and window air conditioners before disposal. Venting it is illegal. That's why scrap facilities often ask for proof that the refrigerant was removed.

Rule 05

Garage chemicals need an ecopark appointment

Monroe County residents can bring household hazardous waste like oil-based paint, pesticides, pool chemicals and solvents to the county's ecopark. You need to book an appointment to drop them off. This keeps these materials out of curbside trash and storm drains.

Rule 06

Tire shops must take back your worn tires

Under New York's waste tire law, stores that sell new tires must accept the same number of used tires from a customer when they buy. That makes the seasonal switch to or from winter tires a good time to get rid of worn ones.

Only what your regular trash hauler's rules allow. I couldn't confirm a Gates bulk pickup schedule, so call the Town of Gates before setting anything out. Items left outside without approval can be cited as illegal dumping.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Gates starts at $90, 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.

Often, yes. Booking before noon can open same-day or next-day slots, depending on your address and crew availability. Enter your zip during booking to see live times. For curbside pickups you don't need to be home, but indoor pickups need access.

Monroe County's ecopark takes household hazardous waste, but an appointment is required. Electronics, appliances and tires don't need one. Regular household garbage, carpet and construction debris are not accepted there, so those need a hauler or a curbside plan.

Loaders aim to donate items in good condition and try to recycle what can't be donated, depending on acceptance. Items that can't be reused or recycled go to an appropriate disposal facility. Donation and recycling outcomes can't be guaranteed for every item.

Pick your items online, choose a time window, and see your total before you confirm. Your Loader typically sends a heads-up before arriving, then removes the items and loads them. You don't have to haul anything to the curb if you book indoor pickup.
