The Problem

Live Oak has junk options, just not easy ones

You check the city's website, call to ask what qualifies, request a few hauler quotes, and wait on callbacks that never come. Meanwhile, the junk stays parked in the garage for another month.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Bulk pickup through the city can work for a single item on the right week. But it usually comes with item limits, required scheduling, and rules about what can sit at the curb. Renovation debris, heavy loads, and tight move-out dates often fall outside it.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come out and look before they'll give you a number, then quote by the fraction of a truck. That makes the final cost hard to predict until the job is done, and you may have to take a weekday off just for the estimate.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers need items they can actually resell, so stained upholstery, worn mattresses, and older electronics often get turned away. Even items in good condition usually have to be dropped off by you, which means loading and driving them over yourself.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container takes up your driveway for days, may need permission from your HOA or the city, and depends on delivery and pickup windows. You still do all the lifting yourself. For clearing out one room or a garage corner, that's more than the job needs.

Pickup Options

Waiting at the curb or carried out from inside

If the old washer or bagged yard trimmings are already sitting on your driveway or at the curb, curbside is the simpler choice. If items are still in a back bedroom, the attic, or a backyard shed, choose full-service and your Loaders will carry everything out for you.

Serving Live Oak, from Loop 1604 to the I-35 corridor

Live Oak is named for its trees, and anyone with a driveway here knows what a windy week does to a yard full of limbs. Hauling that pile to the dump means a borrowed truck and a lost Saturday. Your Loaders lift it, load it, and haul it off, because Live Oak neighbors deserve their weekends back.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items pile up fast in a suburban Live Oak garage, and where they end up matters. Your Loader sorts each load by condition, favoring reuse and recycling when local options allow, and disposal only when needed.

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

  • Materials sorted and recovered
  • Diverted from landfill where possible

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Live Oak disposal rules most residents don't know

If you set out an item the city's program excludes, or miss the monthly window, it can sit at your curb for weeks. These rules apply to Live Oak residents in Bexar County.

Rule 01

Appliances still containing Freon are left out of bulk collection

Live Oak's bulk program accepts appliances with Freon removed but lists appliances containing Freon as not bulk waste. Federal refrigerant rules are the reason, so the refrigerant must be recovered by a certified technician before the unit goes to the curb.

Rule 02

Storm-downed limbs need cutting and tying before curbside pickup

Branches and tree trimmings can be no more than six inches in diameter, and they must be cut, tied, and bundled in four-foot lengths. Limbs from a windstorm cleanup need the same prep, and bagged leaves count toward the monthly limit.

Rule 03

Leftover paint and garage chemicals have a home pickup option

Live Oak residential customers can use the At Your Door Special Collection service through WM for paints, thinners, pesticides, motor oil, and household chemicals. It won't take ammunition, medicine, asbestos, leaking containers, or hazardous materials in containers larger than five gallons.

Rule 04

Furniture and mattresses go out for one monthly curbside window

Live Oak collects bulk items like furniture and mattresses during the first full week of each month, and items must be at the curb before that Monday. Each monthly set-out is capped at six cubic yards total, brush included.

Rule 05

Contractor debris stays the contractor's responsibility to remove

Live Oak doesn't allow construction or landscape maintenance debris at the curb when a third party such as a landscaper or tree trimmer created it. The contractor is responsible for hauling that material away, so put it in any work agreement.

Rule 06

Old TVs and monitors can leave from the front porch

Live Oak's At Your Door Special Collection service lists music players, TVs, DVD and CD players, VCRs, cell phones, microwaves, computers, and monitors among accepted items. That gives residents a front-porch option for e-waste instead of the regular trash cart.

Yes. The City of Live Oak runs curbside brush and bulk collection citywide, starting the first full week of each month. Items put out well before or after that window may not be collected, so check the city's garbage page for current limits.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Live Oak starts at $75, 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.

Often, yes. Same-day or next-day pickup is offered in Live Oak when you book before noon, depending on availability for your address. For curbside jobs you generally don't need to be home, and for indoor jobs you can leave access instructions.

Waste left outside the city's monthly bulk collection can count as illegal dumping. Texas law bars disposing of solid waste anywhere but an approved site, and penalties rise with volume. Hazardous items like paint, batteries, and motor oil also need special disposal.

Loaders aim to donate usable items to local charities and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance. Whatever can't be donated or recycled goes to a licensed disposal site. Outcomes vary by item condition and what local facilities will take.

Book online or by phone, pick your items and a time window, and see your total before confirming. On pickup day, Loaders arrive, load the items, and haul them away. You'll typically get a heads-up call or text before they arrive.

For a few items, per-item pricing is often cheaper and easier than renting a dumpster. For a full remodel or large cleanout over several days, a dumpster can make sense. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK price by truckload, usually after an estimate.
