The Problem

Burke has junk options, just not easy ones

You check the county website, call two haulers, and wait on a callback that never comes. Another quote needs someone to come look first. Weeks later, the garage still holds the same pile.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Fairfax County bulk pickup programs can help, but you usually have to request a pickup, wait for a slot, and get everything to the curb yourself. Some items are excluded, rules vary by hauler and HOA, and none of it helps with a basement full of heavy furniture.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to see the job before giving you a number, so you lose an afternoon waiting on an estimate. Then the price comes back as a fraction of a truckload, and you don't really know the final cost until the truck is already loaded.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift stores and charities have to be selective, and they should be. Stained upholstery, worn mattresses, and broken appliances usually get turned away. You still have to load and drive everything there yourself, and whatever they turn down comes right back home with you.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container sounds simple until you're dealing with delivery windows, HOA approval, and a driveway or shared parking space tied up for days. The neighbors notice. For one room of furniture or a garage corner, you end up paying for far more space than you need.

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

Left at the driveway or carried out from inside

Curbside fits when the old grill or bagged branches are already sitting on your driveway or beside the garage door. Full-service makes more sense for a dresser upstairs in a split-level or a treadmill in a townhome's lower level, since your Loaders carry it out from where it sits.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Burke, from Braddock Road to the Fairfax County Parkway and beyond

Burke runs on a commuter clock, with early VRE trains, the evening crawl toward the Beltway, and weekends already full of errands and yard work. An old sofa in the driveway shouldn't add a dump run to that. Your Loader does the lifting and carrying, because the people here have earned a Saturday back.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky furniture, worn mattresses, and old appliances pile up fast in Burke garages and basements, so where they end up matters. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, favoring donation or recycling when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Sofas, dressers, and other items in good, clean condition may be donated when possible and when local options allow. Your Loader sets aside what looks reusable and loads it separately.

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

Visible Wear

Recycling

Items that are worn or damaged but not fit for donation may be recycled where available, such as metal frames or appliances. Acceptance varies, so your Loader sorts what local options can take.

  • 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, like soaked mattresses or broken furniture, are taken for responsible disposal. Your Loader handles the lifting from your Burke home and keeps usable pieces out of the pile.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Burke disposal rules most residents don't know

Mishandled cleanout items can be left at the curb or turned away at county disposal sites, so here is what applies in Burke under Fairfax County rules.

Rule 01

County e-cycling stations cap drop-offs at ten large items

Fairfax County's e-cycling stations at the I-66 Transfer Station and I-95 Landfill Complex accept computers, televisions and monitors, and cell phones from residents only, with a ten large item limit per visit. Home-based businesses are excluded, and proof of residency may be required.

Rule 02

Storm-downed limbs and stumps fall outside yard waste rules

Fairfax County defines yard waste as routine maintenance material, so tree stumps, whole trees, large limbs, and cleanup from storm damage are excluded from county curbside yard waste collection. Bamboo and invasive plants are also refused, as are soil, mulch, and sod.

Rule 03

Nearly empty latex paint cans can dry out for trash

Fairfax County does not treat latex paint as household hazardous waste. Cans more than a quarter full can be recycled at the I-66 Transfer Station or I-95 Landfill Complex any day, while emptier cans should be left open to dry before going in household trash.

Rule 04

Refrigerators and dehumidifiers need their refrigerant removed first

The county charges a per-item fee for appliances that need refrigerant or capacitor removal, including refrigerators, freezers, humidifiers, dehumidifiers, water coolers, and air conditioners. Refrigerants are potent greenhouse gases, so they are captured onsite at the I-66 Transfer Station and I-95 Landfill Complex.

Rule 05

Old kerosene and transmission fluid go with motor oil

Garage cleanouts often turn up automotive fluids. Fairfax County accepts kerosene, automatic transmission fluid, and power steering fluid alongside motor oil at designated collection points at both county disposal sites, keeping these chemicals out of trash and the environment.

Rule 06

Plastic bags will get your yard waste left behind

Fairfax County's solid waste ordinance bans plastic bags for yard waste because shredded plastic ended up in finished compost. Use paper yard bags or rigid reusable containers, and keep brush under four feet. Plastic-bagged yard waste is also rejected at county disposal sites.

Only if your home gets county trash service and you schedule a special pickup first. Fairfax County includes 5 free special collections per fiscal year, limited to 2 cubic yards. Many Burke homes use private haulers or HOA contracts, so check which applies.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Burke starts at $85, with $5 off for curbside or driveway pickup. The first item includes the base pickup fee, each additional item is a flat add-on, and the exact total is confirmed before booking.

Same-day slots are sometimes open, depending on Loader availability near Burke and when you book. Next-day is more common. Enter your address during booking to see live openings. For curbside pickups you generally don't need to be home.

Regular curbside trash excludes household hazardous waste, scrap metal, refrigerant appliances, dirt, brick, and renovation debris. Bundles can't top 4 feet or 50 lbs. Hazardous waste is free for county residents at county drop-off sites.

Loaders aim to donate usable items and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance. Whatever can't be reused or recycled goes to a proper disposal facility. Outcomes vary by item condition, so nothing is guaranteed.

You pick your items online, get a price confirmed upfront, and choose a pickup window. A Loader arrives, removes the items, and hauls them away. You can point out items at the door or leave them at the curb with access notes.

The main difference is the pricing model. LoadUp prices per item online and confirms the total before booking. College HUNKS serves Burke with same-day and next-day junk removal, and truck-based haulers often quote by load or volume. For a few items, per-item pricing can fit better.
