The Problem

Getting rid of junk in Hunter takes more than a plan

You start by searching online and calling the county to find out what they'll actually pick up. Then you leave messages for haulers, and a few never call back. Weeks go by, and the junk is still sitting in the garage.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Hunter is unincorporated, so there's no town crew coming down your road on a set bulk day. County drop-off sites can help, but you have to get the items there yourself, follow their hours and rules about what's accepted, and make more than one trip if the load is big.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Some haulers won't give you a price until someone drives out to look at the job. Others charge by how much of the truck you fill, so you don't know the real cost until everything is loaded and you're standing in the driveway.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Charities need things they can resell, so stained couches, worn mattresses, and broken appliances usually get turned away. Even the good pieces are on you to load up and drive over, and whatever they decline comes back home with you.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off box is made for big renovation jobs, not a cluttered spare room or one packed shed. You'll be working around delivery and pickup dates, a heavy container sitting on your driveway or lawn, and doing all the lifting and loading yourself.

Pickup Options

Set it by the drive or leave it where it sits

If the old mower or recliner is already at the edge of your driveway, curbside is the simple fit. Choose full-service when your Loaders need to carry items out of a back bedroom, cellar, or detached outbuilding, which is common on the roomier lots around the Elizabethton area.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Hunter and the Elizabethton side of the Tri-Cities

Hauling a recliner down a two-lane back road in a borrowed pickup, then wrestling it back out again, is nobody's idea of a Saturday. Out here, a dump run eats half a day. Your Loaders like showing up for neighbors here, so they handle the lifting from the barn, shed, or porch and you keep your weekend.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items from a garage, barn, or estate cleanout need a plan for where they end up, and that matters in an unincorporated community like Hunter. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, favoring reuse when local options allow.

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household items in good, clean condition may be set aside by your Loader for donation when local options allow. Donation is never guaranteed, and you should not expect a receipt.

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

Heavily Damaged

  • No logistics or transport to handle
  • No sorting or drop-off required on your end
  • Local disposal fees covered

Local Disposal Rules

The Hunter disposal rules most residents don't know

A trailer loaded with the wrong materials gets turned away at the gate. Hunter is unincorporated, so Carter County Solid Waste rules decide where each item goes.

Rule 01

Yard brush is a landfill-only item in Carter County

Neither the Roan Mountain nor the Little Milligan convenience center accepts brush. The county landfill takes brush only when it is clean wood, so storm limbs mixed with lumber, wire, or trash do not count as brush.

Rule 02

Convenience center trash fees are cash only and size-based

Carter County's convenience centers take household trash only in bags. The fee is charged per bag, with a higher rate for bags over 40 gallons, and the centers accept cash only. Both rural centers have limited weekly hours and close on county holidays.

Rule 03

Leftover paint must be fully dried before the landfill takes it

The Carter County Landfill accepts paint only when the containers have been opened and the paint inside has dried. Half-used cans from a garage or basement cleanout need time with the lids off before they can go to the landfill.

Rule 04

Old refrigerators and water heaters count as recyclable scrap metal

The Carter County Recycling Center takes stoves, dishwashers, refrigerators, A/C units, washers, dryers, microwaves, and water heaters as scrap metal. It is open on weekdays only, so you can't drop off an appliance replaced on a Saturday until Monday.

Rule 05

Remodel debris is barred from both rural convenience centers

The Roan Mountain center refuses bathtubs, showers, flooring, roofing, carpet, sheet rock, and cinder block. Little Milligan refuses construction and demolition materials. The county landfill's demolition area has had long closures after a fire, so confirm it is open before loading.

Rule 06

Used cooking oil has a free drop-off with one catch

Carter County Solid Waste accepts used cooking oil free of charge, but it must not be mixed with motor oil or other oils. You can take used motor oil and antifreeze separately to the county recycling center.

Generally no. Hunter is unincorporated, so there is no city bulk pickup. Carter County residents usually haul extra items to a county convenience center or hire someone. Dumping on roadsides or private land is illegal in Tennessee. Confirm accepted items with Carter County.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Hunter 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. Availability depends on the schedule near Hunter and Elizabethton that day, so same-day slots aren't guaranteed. Entering your address during booking shows the live options. Curbside items don't require anyone to be home, but indoor pickups need access.

Hazardous items like paint, chemicals, batteries, and tires are typically restricted at convenience centers and landfills. Large furniture and appliances may also have limits. Carter County has had landfill disruptions before, so check current hours and accepted items first.

Loaders aim to keep items out of the landfill. Usable furniture and household goods may be donated depending on acceptance, recyclable materials are recycled when options allow, and the rest goes to an appropriate disposal facility. Outcomes vary by item and condition.

Enter your address, choose the items, and see a price online before you commit. Pick a time window and a Loader arrives to remove the items. Whether you leave them outside or have them taken from inside, the quoted total is confirmed before booking.

Often yes, if you have a truck, can lift the items, and a convenience center near Hunter accepts them. Self-hauling costs your time, fuel, and any fees. Paying for removal makes sense for heavy items, tight schedules, or when you have no trailer.

The main difference is the pricing model. Traditional haulers often price by truckload and may confirm the cost on site. LoadUp prices per item online, with the first item including the base fee and each additional item a flat add-on, confirmed before booking.
