The Problem

Getting rid of junk in Van shouldn't take all month

You look up the city's pickup rules, leave a voicemail or two, and ask a few haulers for quotes. Some call back, some never do. Meanwhile, the junk is still sitting in the garage, week after week.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

City bulk pickup programs in a small town usually come with fine print: limits on size or quantity, items they won't take like tires or appliances that still hold refrigerant, and a set schedule you have to fit around. If you need it gone sooner, or there's more than a curb's worth, you're stuck.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Lots of haulers want to come out and look before they'll name a price. Then the quote is based on how much of the truck your load fills, which is hard to guess ahead of time. You only find out the real cost once everything is already loaded.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift stores and charities have to be choosy about what they can actually resell. Stained upholstery, broken appliances, and worn-out outdoor furniture usually get turned away. Even when something qualifies, you're the one loading it, driving it over, and hauling home whatever they won't accept.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container is made for a full renovation, not a cleared-out spare room or a few pieces of old patio furniture. You have to book the delivery and pickup, find a level spot where it won't tear up the yard or block the driveway, and still do every bit of the lifting 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.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Van, TX, all along the I-20 corridor

In Van, everybody knows a guy with a truck, and that guy is tired of being asked. When the barn, the shed, or the back lot holds a broken treadmill and a stack of old fence boards, your Loader does the lifting and loading. Giving neighbors their space back is what your Loaders like best.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Big, bulky items are hard to move without a truck, and where they end up matters as much as getting them out. In Van, your Loader sorts each load by condition, favoring reuse when local options allow.

Local Disposal Rules

The Van disposal rules most residents don't know

If you miss Van's Tuesday call-in deadline, your bulky items go uncollected on Friday. These rules apply to homes in Van and across Van Zandt County.

Rule 01

Brush pile burns depend on county burn ban status

The Van Zandt County Commissioners Court often orders burn bans during dry spells, and not just in summer. Bans were issued in October 2024 and twice in early 2026. Check the county's current status before lighting a brush pile.

Rule 02

Old TVs and computers have a free return option

Texas law requires companies that make computer equipment and televisions sold in the state to offer consumers free recycling for their own brand. Desktop computers, laptops, computer monitors and TVs can often go back through a manufacturer program.

Rule 03

Oversized items must be called in by Tuesday

Van's trash day is Friday. Anything that won't fit in your trash can must be called in by Tuesday of that week. A separate truck collects bulk items on Friday, and the truck that empties cans leaves unscheduled items behind.

Rule 04

Refrigerant must be recovered before appliances are scrapped

Refrigerators, freezers and window air conditioners hold refrigerant. Federal rules require a certified technician to recover it before the appliance is scrapped or landfilled. Venting refrigerant is prohibited, so ask any scrap outlet about removal first.

Rule 05

Illegal dumping penalties grow with the size of the load

Under the Texas Litter Abatement Act, penalties for illegal dumping rise with the weight or volume dumped. They range from a Class C misdemeanor for small amounts to a state jail felony for large loads or dumping for a commercial purpose.

Rule 06

Remodeling debris can never go in a backyard fire

Texas outdoor burning rules ban burning electrical insulation, treated lumber, plastics, rubber, asphalt materials and non-wood construction or demolition debris. This applies even when burning is otherwise allowed. Remodel debris from a Van home belongs at a permitted disposal site.

Not without arranging it first. Van's trash service is contracted to Republic Services, and bulky items generally need a scheduled bulk pickup rather than being set out on their own. Call the Sanitation Department at 903-986-5324 to confirm what is accepted and when.

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

Same-day and next-day slots are often available in Van, depending on Loader availability for your address. Enter your zip code during booking to see live openings. For curbside pickups you usually don't need to be home, and you can leave access notes.

Large furniture, appliances, and construction debris usually fall outside normal weekly collection in Van. Hazardous items like paint, chemicals, and batteries are typically restricted too. Ask Republic Services at 903-986-5324 what they accept, or ask a Loader whether your load qualifies.

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.

You book online, choose your items and a time window, and see your price before you confirm. On pickup day, your Loader typically calls or texts before arriving, then lifts, loads, and hauls the items away. You don't need to move anything yourself.

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, with the total locked in before anyone arrives. For a load that fills a truck, a truckload hauler can be the better fit.
