Junk piles up quietly, then one day it is in the way of everything. Book a pickup here in old Buttermilk Station, lock in a real price up front, and have it hauled off.
You call the sanitation department, then a couple of haulers. One quotes over the phone, one wants to see it first, one never calls back. Two weeks later, the pile has not moved.
The city runs bulk trash through the alley on a zone rotation, not on call. What you set out can sit while the route works its way around. Construction debris is excluded outright, and the program has paused between contractors, sending residents to the drop-off site themselves.
Most haulers working this far southwest want to see the pile in person before quoting. You wait for a window, then hear a price based on how much of a truck bed your load fills. That number can move once loading starts.
Resale shops in a town this size only take what they can sell that week. Torn upholstery, chipped particleboard, and appliances that no longer run get turned down at the door. Even accepted items still have to be loaded, driven over, and carried in.
A roll-off ties up your driveway for days and arrives on delivery and pickup windows you do not control. Putting one on the street raises permission questions and neighbor complaints. One room of junk leaves most of the container empty anyway.

No in-person charges
Most companies charge by truck space, and the price often changes on arrival. LoadUp charges by item, based on exactly what you're removing.

A washer wedged behind a deep freeze in a detached garage, or a sofa through a narrow doorway: your Loaders handle both. They are background-checked and rated by real locals in Altus after each job.
If the treadmill is already sitting out at the driveway or the alley, curbside keeps the booking simple. When it is still in a back bedroom, a floored attic, or a shed out on acreage, choose full service and your Loaders bring it out for you.

Altus clears 100 degrees better than two dozen days a year, and the hottest one always lands on the weekend you finally decided to empty the garage. A borrowed truck does not come with shade. Your Loaders do the lifting and the sweating instead, because folks here are worth beating the heat for.
Junk removal in Altus is less about the pickup itself and more about where things land afterward. Your Loaders sort each item by condition, looking for a reuse or recycling option when possible before anything heads to disposal.
Furniture and household goods that are still clean and structurally sound may be offered to a local resale or donation outlet, where available. No receipt comes with that, and no outlet is guaranteed to accept.
Items too worn to resell get a second look for salvageable metal, wood, or components when local options allow. Appliance shells and swing set frames are common candidates, though southwest Oklahoma outlets are limited.
Anything broken down, soaked, or contaminated goes to a licensed disposal site serving the Altus area. Your Loaders handle the load-out, so a couch or hot tub shell never sits in your yard.
Mishandled junk in Altus can mean a code citation or a city cleanup billed to the property owner. Here is what Altus currently requires.
The city has gone without a bulk trash contractor, suspending alley flatbed collection, and residents were directed to haul items to the city roll-off dumpsite. Even when running, alley service is not on-call and items can wait up to 60 days.
Altus residents may take up to 1,500 pounds of waste per month to the municipal landfill at no charge by showing a current city utility bill and photo identification. Tires and weight above that limit are charged.
The city roll-off dumpsite is for household bulk items only. Construction and demolition debris, commercial loads, and oversized loads must go to the municipal landfill instead, and hired contractors may not leave material in alleys or city containers.
Refrigerators, freezers, window air conditioners, and dehumidifiers hold refrigerant that federal law requires a certified technician to recover before the unit is landfilled or scrapped. Puncturing or crushing a sealed system to save a step is illegal.
Oklahoma's Computer Equipment Recovery Act requires manufacturers to fund no-cost recycling of residents' computers, laptops, and monitors, and the state environmental agency keeps a searchable list of drop-off sites and collection events, so these devices do not belong in household trash.
Altus code enforcement treats uncontained yard waste and accumulated debris as a public nuisance, issuing a notice with a deadline before the city abates the property and bills the owner. Statewide, deliberate dumping is a misdemeanor carrying a minimum $500 fine.

(678) 884-4738Right now, no. The City of Altus does not currently have a contractor for bulk alley pickup, so residents are asked to take items to the South Blain Street roll-off dumpsters instead. Alleys must stay passable for sanitation and emergency vehicles. Questions go to the Sanitation Department at 580-481-2251.
LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Altus starts at $80 for a single item, and choosing curbside pickup takes $5 off. The first item includes the base pickup fee, and each additional piece is a flat add-on, with your full total confirmed before you book.
Often yes. LoadUp offers same-day or next-day junk pickup across the Altus area when you book before noon. Enter your zip code during booking to see live availability for your address and lock in a time.
Yes. Altus residents can drop up to 1,500 pounds of household junk free each month at the city landfill off Highway 62 with a utility bill and ID, but tires must be kept separate and carry a fee, and anything over the 1,500 pound limit is charged by weight. The landfill sits roughly 8 miles west of town.
Loaders sort items when they can and aim to donate anything still usable, with recyclable materials routed to recyclers whenever options allow. The goal is to keep reusable goods out of Jackson County landfills, so only what cannot be donated or recycled heads to disposal.
For curbside pickups, no. Just place your junk by the curb and leave access notes, and your Loader handles the rest. For in-home or garage removals, someone should be present or provide entry instructions at booking. Your Loader typically calls ahead before arriving.
Pricing and booking. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and College Hunks charge by truckload and quote in person, so your price isn't set until the crew arrives. LoadUp prices per item online and locks the total before anyone shows up, so you can book the whole job without a walkthrough.
If you have a truck and a light load, self-hauling to the Altus landfill is hard to beat, since residents get up to 1,500 pounds free monthly with a utility bill and ID. LoadUp makes sense when items are too heavy or bulky to move, you lack a vehicle, or you want it gone without a trip west of town.
