Junk has a way of piling up until it becomes one more thing on your list. LoadUp makes clearing it out easy, with quick pickup and a real price before you book.
You search online, call the township to ask about bulky items, and request a few hauler quotes. One calls back, another wants to visit first, and the rest go quiet. Weeks later, the junk is still there.
Township trash service can be a good fit for the odd bulky item, but there are usually limits on what goes out, how much, and when. Appliances, renovation debris, and big cleanouts often fall outside the rules, and you still have to drag everything to the curb.
Many haulers want to come out and look before they give you a number, then price by how much of the truck you fill. You may not know the final cost until the load is on board, which makes it hard to plan.
Donation centers need items they can actually resell, so stained upholstery, worn mattresses, and broken pieces often get turned away. Even good furniture has to be loaded, hauled, and dropped off by you during their hours, and whatever they turn down comes back home.
A roll-off container makes sense for a gut renovation, not for one spare room. Narrow driveways and street parking can mean a permit, the drop-off and pickup dates are set by someone else, and the neighbors look at it for days while you do all the lifting.

Your Loaders haul old dressers up steep, narrow basement stairs and ease them past tight doorways in older stone homes. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Cheltenham after each job.
If a worn patio set or a stack of boxes is already at the end of your driveway or beside a detached garage, curbside service keeps things simple. If a sleeper sofa is stuck in a finished basement or a bed frame is in a second-floor apartment, choose full-service so your Loaders can carry it out from wherever it sits.

Older homes here have plenty of character and very little patience for a sofa. Narrow basement stairs, tight attic hatches, and a hard turn at the landing make big pieces harder than they should be. Your Loaders carry them out so you don't have to, and they genuinely enjoy showing up for the people of Cheltenham.
Where a sofa, dresser, or box spring ends up matters as much as getting it out of the house. In Cheltenham, your Loader sorts items by condition, aiming to keep usable pieces in circulation when local options allow.
Furniture and household goods that are clean and in good shape may be set aside for donation, where available. Your Loader will check condition at pickup, though acceptance depends on what local organizations are currently taking.
Items that are worn or damaged but not donatable, such as metal bed frames or some electronics and appliances, may be recycled when possible. Your Loader sorts them out where local recycling options allow.
Heavily damaged, soiled, or contaminated bulky items, like water-ruined mattresses or broken sofas, are taken for responsible disposal. Your Loader loads them and hauls them to an appropriate Montgomery County area disposal site.
Missing the Thursday noon deadline for a Friday special collection can delay a cleanout by a week. These rules apply in Cheltenham Township, Montgomery County.
Refuse and recycling may not go to the curb more than 12 hours before collection, and empty containers must be brought back within 12 hours afterward. Setting out a garage cleanout at the curb days early breaks township rules.
Recycling is mandatory in Cheltenham, and the township encourages residents to drop off clean cardboard separately instead of using weekly single-stream bins. Processing cardboard costs much less. Boxes can go to the Waverly Road Compost Facility on weekdays or Saturdays.
Pennsylvania's Covered Device Recycling Act bans putting televisions, desktop and laptop computers, computer monitors, tablets and e-readers in household trash. Curbside collection will not take them, so these devices need a manufacturer-funded recycling program or an electronics recycler.
Since September 2025, Cheltenham Township has handled special refuse collections by Friday appointment. You schedule and pay in one online system. Requests are due by noon on the Thursday before collection, or the pickup waits for a later Friday.
Cheltenham sets a 60-pound weight limit for refuse containers. A full 50- to 96-gallon container can weigh more than 100 pounds, so dense cleanout loads are better split across lighter containers than packed into one oversized bin.
Residents can bring large furniture, appliances, metals and tires to the Public Works Facility on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., unless a holiday changes the schedule. Tires must be off the rim, and bulk drop-offs are not accepted Monday through Friday.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Cheltenham starts at $80, 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 charge, and the exact total is confirmed before booking.
Sometimes, depending on Loader availability near Elkins Park, Wyncote, Glenside and the rest of the township. Enter your address at booking to see live same-day and next-day times. For curbside pickups, you usually don't need to be home.
Hazardous items like paint, chemicals, and batteries usually need special handling, and Pennsylvania restricts some electronics from regular trash. Montgomery County runs household hazardous waste programs, so confirm current dates and accepted items with the county or township before disposal.
Loaders aim to donate usable items to local charities, recycle materials like metal and electronics whenever possible, and avoid landfill when options allow. Outcomes depend on item condition and what facilities accept, so nothing is guaranteed.
Choose your items and enter your Cheltenham address online, pick a time window, and review the total price before confirming. On pickup day, your Loader gives notice before arriving, then removes the items and loads them. Payment is handled after the job.
