The Problem

Townshend has no easy way to move junk out

You start by asking what the town will take, learn it is less than you hoped, call two haulers and hear back from one, then price a dumpster. Weeks pass and the pile has not moved.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

The town runs a transfer station, not a bulk pickup route, and it is open to residents only. Trash has to be in an official bag, and heavy debris and construction waste get turned away, so the sofa or the torn-out subfloor stays with you.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Most haulers want to see the load before quoting, which means a scheduled visit before any work happens. Then the number arrives as a fraction of a truck, and what counts as a quarter load gets decided in your driveway. Out this far, plenty never call back at all.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift shops and reuse operations take what they can sell, which rules out anything stained, torn, missing hardware, or stored in a damp basement all winter. They also expect you to deliver it during their hours, and nobody is coming for the rest.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off means a delivery truck needs room to turn around and firm ground to set down on, which a dirt drive in mud season may not offer. It sits there for days, you fill it yourself, and one room rarely justifies that.

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

Find the service level that fits your situation

Curbside works when everything is already staged outside, at the end of a long dirt driveway or beside the barn where your Loaders can reach it. Choose full service when the load is still sitting in an upstairs ell, a cellar, or a back outbuilding and needs to be walked out.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving all of Townshend, from Route 30 up the hill roads

Around here, getting rid of something big means loading the pickup yourself and making trip after trip, and in April your driveway turns to soup before you finish. A barn bay does not empty in one truckload. Your Loaders would rather make those trips for you, because Townshend folks have better uses for a Saturday.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

What happens to an old sofa or fridge depends on its condition, not just its size. Around Townshend, your Loaders sort items as they come out so usable pieces stay out of the waste stream when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture, tools, and household goods that are clean, dry, and structurally sound may be considered for donation where southern Vermont reuse options are accepting them. Wanting a receipt means donating it yourself first.

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

Visible Wear

Recycling

A broken washer, a bent metal bed frame, or a dead television is a different case: your Loaders can keep materials like scrap metal and electronics separate for recycling when Windham County facilities take them.

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

Responsible Disposal

Water-damaged mattresses, collapsed sofas, and hot tubs past saving go to a permitted transfer station or landfill under Vermont's disposal rules, rather than sitting another winter in a Townshend barn.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Townshend disposal rules most residents don't know

Vermont bans several common junk items from the trash outright, and illegal dumping draws fines, so Townshend and Windham County rules decide where your load goes.

Rule 01

Transfer station use requires a free town permit

The Townshend Transfer Station serves town residents only, and a permit must be displayed on every visit, including trips that are just for recycling. Permits are issued free by the Town Clerk, and commercial use is not allowed.

Rule 02

Construction debris cannot go to the town transfer station

Townshend's station turns away heavy debris, construction waste, and anything that will not fit in an official town bag. Renovation loads instead go to the Windham Solid Waste District facility in Brattleboro, where an access sticker or day pass applies.

Rule 03

State law bans recyclables and yard debris from trash

Vermont's Universal Recycling Law keeps listed recyclables, leaf and yard debris, clean wood, and food scraps out of the trash statewide. Attendants may inspect loads, and contaminated or unsorted material raises town costs and can be refused.

Rule 04

Electronics are banned from the trash across Vermont

Computers, monitors, televisions, printers, and computer peripherals cannot legally be thrown away because they carry lead and mercury. Vermont's E-Cycles program covers their recycling at no charge for households, charities, school districts, and businesses with ten or fewer employees.

Rule 05

Refrigerant appliances need recovery before they are scrapped

Under federal Clean Air Act rules, refrigerant in refrigerators, freezers, window air conditioners, and dehumidifiers must be recovered with certified equipment before the unit is crushed or shredded, and the final disposer must document that recovery.

Rule 06

Dumping or burning junk brings fines and cleanup orders

Vermont law makes each person responsible for their own waste, and dumping outside a certified facility can bring fines up to $500 and roadside cleanup duty. Burning trash is never legal, though brush burning may be allowed with local permission.

Townshend has no municipal curbside trash pickup, so there is nothing to set junk out for. Residents use the Townshend Transfer Station on Grafton Road (Route 35) or hire a private hauler. Trash must be in official bags, and the station will not take heavy debris or oversized items.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Townshend starts at $100, and curbside or driveway pickups take $5 off. The first item covers the base pickup fee for labor and hauling, and each added item is a flat add-on, so your full price is confirmed before you book.

It depends on your zip and how rural crews are routed that day, since Townshend sits out in the West River Valley. Next-day and scheduled pickups are the norm here, and you will see live date options when you enter your address during booking.

The Townshend Transfer Station only accepts trash in official bags and turns away heavy debris, construction waste, and anything too big to bag. Vermont law also keeps electronics and food scraps out of the trash. For a couch, mattress, or appliance, you will need the WSWMD facility in Brattleboro or a hauler.

Loaders sort items when they can and aim to keep usable goods out of the landfill. Furniture and housewares in clean, sellable shape may go to places like Experienced Goods in Brattleboro, which funds local hospice care. Electronics head to certified recyclers when options allow.

You get an upfront price online or by phone, pick a date, and confirm. On pickup day your Loaders call ahead, usually around 30 minutes out, then handle the lifting and loading. For curbside jobs you do not need to be home as long as the items are accessible.

1-800-GOT-JUNK prices most jobs by truck volume and gives an on-site estimate, so your final number lands once the crew arrives. LoadUp prices per item online and locks it in before pickup day. For single or two-item jobs, that upfront price is often lower.

Sometimes. The WSWMD transfer station in Brattleboro requires a $60 annual access sticker or a day pass, with trash at $30 for up to 275 pounds and bulky furniture priced per item. If you have a truck and time, DIY can win. For heavy or awkward loads, a hauler saves the trips.
