When junk piles up, it stops being a small chore and starts taking over your week. Book LoadUp, see your price upfront, and get a quick pickup without lifting a thing.
You look up the rules, call the city, and request quotes from a few haulers. One wants to come out first, another never calls back. Weeks go by, and the junk is still in the garage.
City bulk pickup programs can work well for a few items at the curb. But they usually limit what they'll take, need you to request a pickup ahead of time, and leave the lifting to you. That doesn't help with a basement full of stuff.
Lots of haulers want to come look before they give you a number. Then the price depends on how much of the truck your load fills, and you often don't know what that means until everything is already on board.
Donating gently used goods is a great idea, and some items may be donated where available. But donation centers turn away stained mattresses, broken appliances, and worn-out pieces. Whatever they won't take is still yours to deal with.
A roll-off sounds simple until you're scheduling delivery and pickup, checking whether you need a permit, and watching it take up your driveway for days. Your neighbors notice. And you still have to carry every load out and toss it in yourself.

Strapping a mattress to the roof and creeping down Ringgold Road from one stoplight to the next is a rough way to spend a Saturday, and a dump run only adds to it. Your Loader handles the lifting and loading at your door, and showing up for East Ridge neighbors is the good part of the job.
Bulky items rarely end up in one place, and what happens after pickup depends on their condition. In East Ridge, your Loader sorts each load by condition so donation and recycling are used when local options allow.
Furniture and household goods in clean, usable shape may be donated where available. Your Loader carries them out and loads them separately, so good items have a chance at a second home.
Items that are worn or damaged but still have recyclable parts, like metal-framed appliances or old electronics, may be recycled when possible. Acceptance depends on local options and the item's condition.
Heavily damaged or contaminated pieces, such as a soaked mattress or broken sectional, go to a licensed disposal site. Your Loader handles the lifting and loading at your East Ridge property.
Trash bags set beside the cart and oversized limbs simply stay at the curb, so here is what East Ridge, in Hamilton County, requires before anything gets collected.
Logs and branches larger than six inches in diameter must be cut into 18 inch sections for brush collection, and the city states nothing larger will be accepted. After storms, downed trees need cutting to size before the pile qualifies.
East Ridge will not collect construction materials from any resident, so leftovers from a remodel or repair project cannot be left at the curb. They must be taken to the city's Yale Street drop-off location instead.
Recycling cans are free, but residents sign up through the city's Recycling Program Form to receive one. Pickup is every other week, with the schedule now including fifth Fridays, and participants are expected to follow the city's updated accepted items list.
The city points large bulk items, including furniture and metal items such as stoves, fridges, and water heaters, to its Yale Street drop-off center. Residents can also bring large items to the local brush disposal and mulch pit for a small fee.
East Ridge runs its Leaf Vac service from December through February, and leaves are not collected on the same day or in the same manner as brush. Leaves must be kept separate from brush rather than raked into one pile.
Household trash must fit inside the 96 gallon City-issued cart, and no bags outside the can will be picked up. Households that regularly overflow can add an extra cart for $60 per year, paid in advance at City Hall.

Large items, construction debris, and hazardous materials like paint, chemicals, and batteries generally fall outside standard household collection. Hamilton County residents typically use county disposal or hazardous waste programs for those. Check current acceptance rules with East Ridge Public Works.
Loaders aim to keep usable items out of the landfill. Depending on acceptance, good items go to local Chattanooga-area donation partners, and recyclable materials go to recyclers whenever possible. Anything that can't be donated or recycled is taken to an appropriate disposal facility.
You enter your address and select the items online, then pick a time window. The price is shown before you confirm. On pickup day your Loader arrives, removes the items, and handles the loading, so you don't have to lift anything.
