The Problem

Getting rid of junk out here takes more than a phone call

You search online, call the county, leave messages with a couple of haulers, and wait. One never calls back, another can't come out for weeks. Meanwhile the junk sits in the barn another season.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Municipal pickup schedules, where they exist, usually come with limits on size, item type, and how often you can set things out. Appliances, tires, and construction debris are often excluded, and requests can take weeks to come around.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to drive out and look before quoting, which can mean a long wait for an appointment. Then the price depends on how much of the truck you fill, and the final number might not match what you heard first.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers need items they can resell, so stained couches, worn mattresses, and broken appliances usually get turned away. You still have to load everything up and drive it there yourself, and anything they reject rides home with you.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container makes sense for a full teardown, not a cleared-out spare room. You'll plan around delivery and pickup windows, give up part of your driveway or pasture, and do all the heavy lifting into it yourself.

What sets us apart

Your price is locked before pickup day

Most companies charge by truck space, and the price often changes on arrival. LoadUp charges by item, based on exactly what you're removing.

  • Per-item, predictable. First item includes the pickup fee. Every add-on is flat, no truck math, no hourly rates.
  • Locked means locked. The price at booking is what you pay. No adjustments, no surprises.
  • No-obligation quotes. Big job or full cleanout? Text a photo for a guaranteed price first.

Vetted Loaders who treat your property with care

A cast-iron stove tucked at the back of a detached barn or a dresser coming down narrow farmhouse steps takes patience. Your Loaders are background-checked and rated by real locals in Chico after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Left by the gate or carried out from where it sits

Curbside (outdoor) pickup works when your load is already outside, like old fencing stacked by the gate or a worn recliner at the end of a long driveway. If items are still inside a back bedroom, shed, or weekend cabin near Lake Bridgeport, choose full-service and your Loaders will bring them out for you, as long as the spot is reachable.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Chico, from the Highway 101 corridor to the ranch roads beyond

Out here, getting rid of an old sofa usually means finding a truck, cinching down straps, and driving miles of open road with the Texas wind trying to take it back. Your Loader lifts, carries, and loads it from the barn, porch, or shed instead. LoadUp and your Loaders genuinely like showing up for Chico neighbors.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Out past the Highway 101 corridor, a mixed load of old furniture, fencing scraps, and storm debris needs sorting. In Chico, your Loader decides each item's path by its condition, aiming to keep usable things out of landfills.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture, appliances, and household goods in clean, usable shape may be donated when possible. Your Loader sets these aside, though local donation options vary, and you should not expect paperwork or a tax receipt.

  • Tax-deductible receipt by request
  • Diverts waste from landfill
  • Free up your space and help a neighbor
See donation pickup
Visible Wear

Recycling

Items too worn to donate, like scrap metal, bent fencing wire, or broken appliances, may be recycled where available. Your Loader separates them when local options allow, since acceptance varies by item and location.

  • Materials sorted and recovered
  • Diverted from landfill where possible
  • Compliant with local waste regs
See common questions
Heavily Damaged

Responsible Disposal

Mattresses, rotted furniture, and heavily damaged bulky items that can't be reused go to an appropriate disposal site. Your Loader lifts and loads them, so nothing gets dumped on ranchland or near the lake.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Chico disposal rules most residents don't know

A burn pile during a burn ban or a sofa left on a county road can lead to criminal charges, so here is what applies in Chico and Wise County.

Rule 01

Dumping a couch on a county road is a crime

Under the Texas Litter Abatement Act, the penalty depends on weight. Dumping anything from five to 500 pounds is a Class B misdemeanor. Heavier loads rise to Class A, and 1,000 pounds or more becomes a state jail felony.

Rule 02

Log any brush burn with the Wise County Fire Marshal

Wise County often adopts 90-day burn bans in dry weather. Breaking one is a Class C misdemeanor with a fine of up to $500. Even when burning is allowed, the county asks residents to log each burn to avoid unneeded fire responses.

Rule 03

Old computers qualify for free manufacturer recycling under Texas law

Texas requires computer makers to offer consumers free recycling of their own brand of desktops, laptops, and monitors. TV makers must also run take-back programs. Checking the brand's program first can keep bulky screens out of the landfill.

Rule 04

Car and mower batteries are banned from household trash

Texas law bans putting lead-acid batteries in regular garbage or burning them. Stores that sell these batteries must take back used ones, so an old truck, tractor, or riding mower battery can be dropped off when you buy a replacement.

Rule 05

Hail-damaged shingles and remodel scraps can never go on a burn pile

Texas outdoor burning rules ban burning asphalt materials, treated lumber, plastics, electrical insulation, and non-wood construction or demolition debris. After a North Texas hailstorm, torn-off roofing and drywall must go to a permitted disposal site, even from rural land.

Rule 06

Nearly empty paint cans can be dried out and trashed

The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality says a paint can less than one-quarter full can be opened and left in a well-ventilated spot until the paint dries, usually within a few days. Once dry, the can may go in regular trash.

Don't assume you can. Chico is a small rural city, and I couldn't confirm a curbside bulk pickup program here. Dumping items on roadsides or ranchland is illegal dumping under Texas law. Call Chico City Hall to ask about trash service and bulk rules.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Chico starts at $75 for a single item, 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.

It depends on Loader availability near Chico, which is more limited than in big metros. Enter your address during booking to see live openings. For curbside pickups you don't need to be home, and in-home jobs need someone present or access instructions.

Hazardous items like paint, chemicals, oil, and batteries generally can't go in household trash or be hauled as ordinary junk. Large items may also need a landfill or transfer station trip. Check with Chico City Hall or Wise County for current drop-off options and fees.

Loaders aim to donate usable items and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance at nearby facilities. Whatever can't be reused or recycled goes to an appropriate disposal facility. Outcomes vary by item condition and what local options accept.

Pick your items online, enter your Chico address, and choose an available time window. You see the total before you confirm. On pickup day, your Loader arrives, removes the items from where you've pointed them out, and handles the loading and hauling.

Pricing model and booking flow. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King usually price by truckload and often confirm cost on-site. LoadUp prices per item online with the total shown before booking. A full truckload cleanout may suit a truck-based hauler better.

Service coverage depends on your exact address, so enter it during booking to confirm availability. Rural properties near Lake Bridgeport may sit at the edge of service areas. Items placed near a driveway or gate for pickup are easiest to handle.
