The Problem

Getting junk out of Wilmington takes more than it should

You search online, call around about bulk rules, leave messages with a couple of haulers, and wait. One calls back, one never does. A few weekends slip by, and the junk is still parked in the garage.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Municipal pickup schedules can help, but they usually come with item limits, a request you have to make ahead of time, and a wait for the next pickup date. Your heavy stuff still has to get to the curb, and some items won't qualify at all.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

A lot of haulers want to see the pile in person before they'll give you a number, then price it by how much of the truck it fills. You don't know the real total until they're standing in your driveway, and by then it's hard to say no.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift and donation drop-offs need goods they can actually resell, so stained mattresses, worn couches, and broken furniture get turned down. Even when something qualifies, you still have to load it, drive it there, and hope they're accepting that week.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off makes sense for a gut remodel. For one cluttered room it's a lot: you schedule the drop-off and the pickup, check whether you need a permit, give up your driveway for days, and still do all the lifting yourself.

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.

Vetted Loaders who show up ready to work

Steep basement stairs or a crowded barn loft call for care, and your Loaders lift and carry through both. Each is background-checked and rated by real locals in Wilmington after each job.

Pickup Options

Set it at the curb or leave it where it sits

Curbside fits when your items are already out by the street or staged on the driveway, which is handy for in-town homes that sit close to the road. Full-service makes more sense on a rural Clinton County lot with a long gravel lane, or when a dresser is still upstairs in a rental, because your Loaders bring it out from inside.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Wilmington, from Main Street to the Clinton County back roads

In a town where everyone knows someone with a pickup, you still end up calling in favors to move an old sectional out of a basement. Your Loader lifts it, carries it up the stairs, and clears the space, so your Saturday stays yours. Showing up for Wilmington neighbors is the part your Loaders like best.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items pile up fast in a county-seat city like Wilmington, and where they end up matters as much as getting them out. Your Loader sorts each piece by condition, so usable things go on and the rest is handled responsibly.

  • Tax-deductible receipt by request
  • Diverts waste from landfill
  • Free up your space and help a neighbor

Local Disposal Rules

The Wilmington disposal rules most residents don't know

Trash left beside a toter without a scheduled bulk pickup will not be collected, so know these rules before you clean out a home in Wilmington, Clinton County.

Rule 01

Freon appliances can't go to the curb or the landfill

Wilmington bans appliances containing Freon from roadside collection and from the City of Wilmington Landfill. Clinton County's recycling resources send residents to specialty recyclers for appliances that local curbside and drop-off programs will not take.

Rule 02

Three bulk pickups a year won't cover a move-out

Wilmington's bulk item service covers three items per year and is not meant for moves or property cleanups. Any more items add a charge to the utility bill, and large volumes must be hauled to the Wilmington Landfill by the owner or tenant.

Rule 03

Hot embers are banned from carts and the city landfill

Wilmington does not allow hot embers in roadside trash collection or at the City of Wilmington Landfill under any circumstances. This matters most during Ohio's heating season, when residents clean out fireplaces and wood stoves and should wait until the material is completely cold.

Rule 04

Yard waste goes only in paper bags sold by the city

Leaves, prunings, grass clippings, and weeds collected at the roadside must go in paper yard waste bags bought from the City of Wilmington. Residents can also bring loads with no other trash mixed in to the city's Ohio EPA regulated Class IV composting site.

Rule 05

Mattresses and couches must be sealed in plastic first

Mattresses, box springs, couches, and other upholstered furniture are picked up through bulk pickup only if they are wrapped in plastic and sealed. A mattress and box spring set counts as just one bulk item toward the yearly limit.

Rule 06

Remodeling debris has to stay out of the trash toter

Lumber, shingles, plywood, drywall, windows, toilets, bathtubs, fencing, dirt and rocks, concrete, and bricks cannot go in trash carts for regular collection. Instead, residents can drop these materials off at the City of Wilmington Landfill during regular business hours.

Only regular household trash that is bagged or in a container and set out by 12:00 am on your pickup day. Large piles of junk are not standard trash. Check the City of Wilmington's trash pickup regulations before setting out bulky loads.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Wilmington starts at $75, 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, with the exact total confirmed before booking.

Sometimes, depending on Loader availability for your address. Enter your Wilmington zip code during booking to see live open time slots. Next-day and later dates are usually easier to get, especially on weekends.

Not for curbside or driveway pickups. Leave the items out and add access notes at booking. For items inside your home, someone should be there, or you can give entry instructions ahead of time.

Household hazardous waste like paint, chemicals, and similar products generally can't go in regular trash. The Clinton County Solid Waste Management District and the city's Stormwater Department have run hazardous waste collection events for county residents. Yard waste has its own drop-off at the city compost site.

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

Pick your items and your Wilmington address online, choose a time window, and see your price before you confirm. On pickup day, your Loader gives you a heads-up before arriving, then carries out and loads the items for you.

Pricing model and booking flow. Many traditional haulers price by truckload and confirm the final price on site after an estimate. LoadUp prices per item online, so the total is confirmed before anyone shows up. For big cleanouts, a truckload hauler may suit you better.
