Junk piles up faster than anyone plans for, and on the Block it is never simple to move. Book a pickup with LoadUp, see your price upfront, and skip the heavy lifting entirely.
You start by checking what the town takes, then call around for someone with a truck. Two never call back, one quotes a date that keeps moving. Months pass, and the pile in the shed hasn't.
There is no town bulk pickup to request here. Bulky items go to the transfer station up Corn Neck Road, weighed on arrival, during hours that shift between the summer and winter schedules. You still have to lift it, load it, and drive it there yourself.
Paid haulers here want to see the job before quoting, which means scheduling a visit before you can schedule anything else. Then pricing comes by the truckload, so a half-empty load costs what a full one does, and the number can still move on pickup day.
Reuse options here are small, seasonal, and selective for good reason: salt air, damp sheds, and unheated winters leave plenty of furniture in condition nobody can resell. Anything declined is still yours, still in the room, with a second trip to arrange.
A container has to cross the water both ways, which is a lot of scheduling for one attic's worth of junk. Anything sitting in a public lane is a question for the town, and plenty of drives here are too narrow or too soft to hold one anyway.

No waiting on callbacksLocal Loaders arrive at your location, haul away the junk, and dispose of it responsibly when options allow.
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.

Your Loaders handle the awkward part: tight attic stairs, a basement bulkhead, a doorway too narrow for a dryer. Each is background checked and rated by real locals in New Shoreham after each job.
If the dresser is already sitting at the end of the drive, curbside keeps things simple and quick. Choose full service when items are still inside a house, basement, or outbuilding, or when you're arranging the whole thing remotely and nobody is there to drag anything out.

Out here nothing leaves on its own, which is how a dead chest freezer ends up spending a decade in a shed: moving it took more planning than anyone had. Your Loaders bring both the muscle and the plan, and they like showing up for people who look out for each other the way New Shoreham does.
Nothing thrown out in New Shoreham stays in New Shoreham, since the town's own landfill closed decades ago. Condition is what decides an item's path, and your Loaders sort by condition before anything is loaded.
Furniture that is clean, structurally sound, and free of odor can be set aside for donation where local options allow. Your Loader will know which reuse channels are actually operating that season.
A cracked bed frame or a dented filing cabinet is often worth more in parts than whole. Where outlets exist for metal, wood, or electronics, your Loader may separate those materials when possible.
Waterlogged sectionals and rusted-through appliances rarely have a second life. Your Loaders take them out as waste, which in New Shoreham usually means a transfer station drop, then onward to the mainland waste stream.
Guessing wrong here can mean a rejected load or a state solid waste penalty, so know what New Shoreham expects before anything leaves your property.
Town ordinance bars dumping refuse on roads or in the harbors, and all household waste must reach the transfer station. Rhode Island rules allow an administrative penalty of up to $5,000 for disposing of solid waste outside a licensed facility.
Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and dehumidifiers hold refrigerant that must be recovered before the metal can be scrapped. New Shoreham charges $50 per Freon-bearing appliance at the transfer station, versus $10 each for large appliances without refrigerant.
Rhode Island's Electronic Waste Prevention, Reuse and Recycling Act prohibits landfilling computers, monitors, laptops, tablets and televisions, and transfer stations must segregate them from trash. Manufacturer funding covers free recycling for households and K-12 schools, but not for businesses.
A recycling fee collected at purchase funds Rhode Island's mattress stewardship program, so intact, dry mattresses and box springs are taken free inside the transfer station building. Soaked, frozen, heavily soiled or bedbug-infested units get rejected and cost extra.
Every discarded item leaves Block Island by ferry, so the town charges construction and demolition debris, furniture, carpeting and other bulky waste by weight, around $0.17 per pound. Pulling out clean metal and cardboard first reduces the weighed portion.
Rhode Island law treats leaf and yard debris as compost feedstock rather than trash and counts seaweed as yard waste, with annual tonnage caps on what each town sends to the state facility. Christmas trees are accepted free locally.

(678) 884-4738No. Block Island has no municipal curbside bulk pickup, so residents haul items to the New Shoreham Transfer Station on West Beach Road, operated by Block Island Recycling Management. Leaving junk anywhere else counts as illegal dumping. Call 401-466-3210 for hours, generally 7am to 1:30pm, closed Thursdays and Sundays.
LoadUp pricing for junk removal in New Shoreham starts at $105, and curbside or driveway pickups take $5 off. The first item covers the base pickup fee, and each additional item is a flat add-on, with your total confirmed before booking. Hauling it yourself, the transfer station charges $340 per ton or $0.17 per pound for bulky waste.
Island logistics make same-day less common here than on the mainland, since everything ships off Block Island by ferry. Enter your New Shoreham zip during booking to see live dates for your address. Next-day and scheduled windows are often available, so planning a day or two ahead helps.
The transfer station charges $50 for appliances with Freon like fridges and AC units, and $10 for other large appliances. Household hazardous waste such as paint, gasoline and chemicals isn't accepted there, but RIRRC's free Eco-Depot handles those for Rhode Island residents. Loaders can take appliances with no tag required.
All Block Island waste moves through the transfer station and ferries to the Central Landfill in Johnston on the mainland. Loaders aim to donate usable items and recycle metal, clothing and cardboard whenever options allow, so less heads to the landfill. Clothing and textiles drop free at the station.
You book online or by phone with an upfront, per-item price locked before anyone arrives. On pickup day your Loaders call roughly 30 minutes ahead. For curbside pickups you don't need to be home if items are accessible. For in-home jobs, someone should be present or leave access notes at booking.
LoadUp prices each item online and confirms the total before anyone shows up. National haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and College Hunks quote by truckload after an in-person look, so your price isn't set until the crew is in your driveway. For a one or two item job, upfront per-item pricing is usually clearer.
