The Problem

Getting rid of big stuff around here takes work

You look up disposal rules, call around to see who serves your road, and leave messages with haulers who never call back. Meanwhile the pile in the shed stays put, and another weekend goes by.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

If your area offers a bulk pickup program, it can help, but most come with item limits, set collection dates, and a call ahead. Brush piles, renovation scraps, or anything out in a barn may not qualify, so you can end up waiting or hauling it yourself.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come out and look before they give you a price, and in a rural area that can mean waiting days for the visit. Pricing by the truckload leaves you guessing what fraction counts, and the final number can change once loading starts.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers take items they can resell, so stained mattresses, broken recliners, and worn-out appliances often get turned away. Many also expect you to drop things off yourself, and the nearest one that takes large pieces may be a long drive.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A dumpster makes sense for a full teardown, but clearing out one spare room or a carport doesn't need one. You have to work around delivery and pickup dates, find level ground for it, and still do all the lifting and tossing 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.

Pickup Options

Set it by the drive or have it carried out

Neighborhoods Served

Proudly serving Tenaha and the rest of Shelby County

After an East Texas storm, the pines drop whatever they please, and you're left with a yard full of limbs and a long drive to dispose of them in a truck you may not own. Your Loader does the lifting and hauling instead, and likes showing up for Tenaha neighbors who have plenty else to do.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Hauling away old furniture, appliances, or storm debris only helps if it ends up in the right place. In Tenaha, your Loader sorts each load by condition, so usable items are kept out of the landfill when possible.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household goods in good, clean condition may be donated when local options allow. Your Loader can set these aside for a donation channel, though choices around Shelby County may be limited.

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

Recycling

Items that are worn or damaged but not donatable, like metal frames or old appliances, may be recycled where available. Your Loader will take that route when local options make it possible.

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

Responsible Disposal

Heavily damaged or contaminated bulky items, such as soaked mattresses or broken-down sheds, go to a permitted disposal site. Your Loader handles the lifting and hauling, so you don't make the drive.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Tenaha disposal rules most residents don't know

Dumping a cleanout load in Texas can bring criminal charges that grow with the weight dumped. Here are the disposal rules that apply in Tenaha and across Shelby County.

Rule 01

Old motor oil from garage cleanouts cannot be dumped

Texas law prohibits dumping used oil onto the ground, into drainage systems, or down drains, where it can reach creeks and groundwater. The state registers public used oil collection centers, often auto parts stores, that accept oil from do-it-yourself changes.

Rule 02

Shelby County burn bans can halt brush pile burning

Texas lets the Shelby County Commissioners Court declare a burn ban for unincorporated areas when drought raises wildfire risk in the Piney Woods. During a ban, burning limbs, pine straw, and storm brush outdoors is generally prohibited, so piles need another disposal route.

Rule 03

Texas makes TV and computer makers take back old equipment

Under state recycling programs overseen by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, makers of computers and televisions sold in Texas must offer consumers free recycling for their brands. A manufacturer's take-back program is often the simplest route for an outdated TV or desktop.

Rule 04

Car batteries cannot go in Texas household trash

Texas law bars lead-acid batteries from municipal solid waste landfills because of the lead and acid inside. Stores that sell vehicle batteries are required to accept used ones, so an old battery from a garage cleanout has a ready return path.

Rule 05

Refrigerant must be recovered before fridges and AC units are scrapped

Federal Clean Air Act rules require refrigerant to be recovered before refrigerators, freezers, window air conditioners, and dehumidifiers are disposed of or scrapped. Knowingly venting it is illegal, and final scrap processors must verify that recovery was completed.

Rule 06

Treated lumber and shingles are off-limits for backyard fires

Even where Texas allows burning of household waste, state outdoor burning rules ban burning treated lumber, plastics, asphaltic materials such as roofing, and non-wood construction or demolition debris. Leftovers from a remodel have to go to an authorized disposal site instead.

I couldn't confirm a Tenaha bulk-pickup program, so don't assume the curb is a free drop-off. Dumping items on public or private property you don't own is illegal dumping in Texas. Ask Tenaha City Hall or your trash hauler about bulk rules first.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Tenaha starts at $75 for a single item, and curbside or outdoor pickup takes $5 off. The first item includes the base pickup fee, each additional item is a flat add-on, and the exact total is confirmed before booking.

Sometimes. Availability depends on Loader schedules near Tenaha, Timpson and the rest of Shelby County, so enter your address during booking to see open times. Outdoor pickups don't need you home. For indoor jobs, someone should be there or leave access notes.

Hazardous items like paint, chemicals, solvents, and automotive fluids generally can't go in household trash or a standard haul. Loaders can't take hazardous materials either. Check with Shelby County or your local landfill about household hazardous waste options.

Loaders aim to donate usable items and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance at nearby facilities in East Texas. Items that can't be donated or recycled are taken for proper disposal. Outcomes vary by item condition and what local partners accept.

Pick your items online, get an upfront price, and choose an arrival window. Your Loader typically calls or texts before arriving, then loads the items and hauls them away. You can also text a photo of your items to get a price.

The main difference is pricing and booking. Traditional haulers often price by truckload and may confirm the cost on site. LoadUp prices per item online, so the total is confirmed before booking. For a big cleanout, a full-truck quote may suit you better.

No, but self-hauling can be cheaper for small loads if you have a truck and can reach a Shelby County disposal site. I couldn't confirm current local fees or hours, so call ahead. A hauling service makes sense for heavy or bulky items.
