The Problem

Bothell has options for junk, just not easy ones

You search online, call the hauler on your bill, and request a few quotes. One company never calls back, another wants to stop by first. Two weekends later, the junk is still sitting in the garage.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Bulky item collection through your garbage hauler can work, but it usually has to be scheduled ahead, may be limited by item type, and depends on which side of the county line you live on. You still have to drag everything to the curb yourself.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to send someone out for an estimate before they'll commit to a price. Then the quote is based on how much of the truck you fill, so you don't really know the final number until the job is already loaded.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift stores and charities have to resell what they accept, so stained upholstery, scuffed particleboard, and older electronics often get turned away. That leaves you hauling the rejects back home and still looking for somewhere to take them.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container takes up your driveway for days, may need street-use approval if it sits on the road, and can upset an HOA or the neighbors. For a single basement or spare room, you end up paying for space you never use and loading it yourself.

Background-checked Loaders who arrive ready to lift

Your Loaders angle dressers down steep split-level staircases and work around parked cars in narrow townhome garages. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Bothell after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Set it at the curb or leave it where it sits

If an old patio set or leftover fence boards are already stacked on a Maywood Hills driveway, curbside service keeps the visit quick. For upstairs apartments, basement storage, or complexes with shared parking and building access rules, full-service lets your Loaders carry everything out from inside, so check any property requirements before you book.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Bothell, on both sides of the King and Snohomish County line

Let's be honest, strapping a dresser to a roof rack and merging onto I-405 near the SR 522 interchange is nobody's idea of a Saturday. Rain and traffic already take enough of your weekend. Your Loader handles the lifting and loading, and LoadUp loves showing up for the neighbors who make Bothell feel like home.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items rarely leave a home or office in one neat category, which is why where they end up matters in Bothell. Your Loader sorts each piece by condition, so usable things have a chance at a second life.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

When a piece is clean and in good shape, your Loader sets it aside for donation, where available. Local donation options vary by address and change over time, so nothing is promised.

  • 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 ready for donation may be recycled when local options allow. Your Loader separates materials like metal or wood when possible, since recycling access differs across King and Snohomish Counties.

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

Responsible Disposal

Heavily damaged, soiled, or broken bulky items go to responsible disposal. Your Loader loads them onto the truck, and they are taken to an appropriate disposal site, which depends on your address and current local rules.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Bothell disposal rules most residents don't know

Rolling into a King County transfer station with an untarped load adds a $25 fee before disposal even starts, so learn how these Bothell and King County rules work.

Rule 01

Old carpet counts as construction debris in King County

King County classifies carpet and carpet padding as construction and demolition material, so every C&D restriction applies. C&D loads arriving in vehicles with mechanized dump beds or dump trailers are refused at county facilities and must go to a county-designated C&D facility.

Rule 02

Two free bulky item pickups come with Recology service

Under the city contract that began July 1, 2025, Bothell residential Recology customers may request up to two curbside bulky item collections per calendar year at no extra cost, covering items like sofas, mattresses, and large appliances that will not fit in carts.

Rule 03

Storm branches cannot ride along with household garbage

Since 2018, yard waste such as branches, prunings, and leaves has been banned from garbage disposal at the Shoreline transfer station, and mixed loads pay the garbage rate. Bothell's contract also includes one annual pickup of three 32-gallon equivalents of extra yard waste.

Rule 04

Wet mattresses get turned away from transfer station recycling

King County charges a $30 handling fee for every mattress, futon, and box spring, recycled or not, with a limit of six pieces per customer per day. Shoreline will not recycle wet mattresses, so keep them covered through Bothell's rainy months.

Rule 05

Bothell recycling vouchers must be redeemed by November 30

City residents can receive two Recycling Voucher Program vouchers per household each year, while supplies last, for recyclables taken to the Shoreline Recycling and Transfer Station. Requests close November 1, businesses are not eligible, and residents must haul the items themselves.

Rule 06

Refrigerators and air conditioners are barred from the trash

King County will not accept refrigerators, freezers, water coolers, or air conditioners for disposal because their CFC refrigerants are regulated under the federal Clean Air Act. These units must be emptied and recycled or reused so refrigerants are safely removed.

Yes, through Recology King County. Bothell residential customers can request up to two free curbside bulky items per calendar year, such as appliances or couches. Request it by form or call 425-453-0220. Items left out without a request risk being treated as illegal dumping.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Bothell starts at $95, and curbside or driveway pickup takes $5 off. The first item includes the base pickup fee and each additional item is a flat add-on charge, with the exact total confirmed before booking.

Same-day or next-day pickup is often possible, but it depends on Loader availability for your address and time. Enter your Bothell address during booking to see live openings. For curbside pickups you generally don't need to be home if you leave access notes.

Recology's bulky service covers furniture, mattresses and large appliances for a fee after the free pickups, such as $46.63 for a sofa or chair in 2026. Fluorescent bulbs, batteries and used oil go through its separate Special Item Recycling program instead.

Loaders aim to donate usable items and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance, and try to avoid the landfill. Items that can't be reused or recycled go to an appropriate disposal facility. Outcomes vary by item condition and local options.

Yes, and it can be the cheaper route for a small load if you have a truck. King County transfer stations charge a minimum garbage fee of about $40.25, plus a per-ton rate for heavier loads. You do the lifting and driving, so it costs time and effort.

The main differences are pricing model and booking flow. Many traditional haulers price by truck volume, often with an estimate on arrival, while LoadUp prices per item online with the total confirmed before booking. For a large cleanout, a volume-based quote may suit you better.
