The Problem

Lacey has junk options, just not easy ones

You search online, call the county, and leave messages with a few haulers. One quotes a vague range, another never calls back. A week later, the pile in your garage hasn't moved an inch.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Free bulk pickup programs, where your service offers one, usually mean booking ahead, waiting for an open date, and dragging everything to the curb yourself. Item limits and exclusions vary by provider, so a heavy load or a tight move-out date often won't fit the schedule.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to see the job in person before they'll quote it, then price by how much of the truck you fill. You won't know the real number until the junk is already loaded, and by then saying no is awkward.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift stores and charities need things they can resell, so stained couches, scuffed dressers, and worn mattresses often get turned away. You'll still have to load and haul each piece there yourself, and whatever they decline comes home with you.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off sized for a full renovation is a lot of container for one spare room. You may need permission to park it on the street, it can sit on the driveway for days, and you still do all the lifting into it 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.

Background-checked Loaders, rated by the neighbors they help

Your Loader angles a recliner down a narrow split-level staircase or out of a second-floor walk-up. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Lacey after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Set it at the curb or leave it where it sits

If the old fridge or a stack of boxes is already in your driveway or open garage, curbside lets your Loader load it straight from there. For a sectional wedged in an upstairs bonus room or furniture in an apartment unit with shared stairwells, full-service means your Loaders carry it out from inside.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Lacey, from the Martin Way corridor out to Hawks Prairie

Hauling a sofa onto I-5 toward the JBLM backup is a great way to lose a Saturday, and Thurston County drizzle will soak whatever you left in the truck bed. Your Loader does the lifting, carrying, and loading instead, and your Loaders love showing up for Lacey neighbors who'd rather spend the weekend dry.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items pile up fast during a move or cleanout, and where they end up matters in Lacey. Your Loader sorts each piece by condition, steering what can be reused or recycled away from the landfill when possible.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household goods in good, clean condition may be set aside for donation when local options allow. Your Loader lifts and loads them separately, though acceptance depends on what nearby organizations can take.

  • 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 donatable, like metal frames or broken fixtures, may be recycled where available. Your Loader separates them during loading, but recycling options vary and cannot be guaranteed.

  • 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 contaminated bulky items, such as a water-ruined sofa or a collapsed shed panel, are hauled by your Loader for responsible disposal at a permitted facility serving the Lacey area.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Lacey disposal rules most residents don't know

A mixed load can be billed at regular garbage rates instead of composting rates, so these rules for Lacey and Thurston County are worth knowing before your first trip.

Rule 01

Tire drop-off is capped at five per vehicle daily

The Waste and Recovery Center limits tire recycling to five tires per vehicle per day, charges the garbage fee for them, and requires customers to unload tires into the designated area themselves. Clearing a bigger stack takes more than one trip.

Rule 02

Old TVs and monitors cost a garbage fee at county sites

Thurston County's HazoHouse does not accept CRTs, TVs, or monitors, and electronics left at county drop-off sites are disposed of as municipal solid waste for a fee. The county points residents toward the statewide E-Cycle Washington program instead.

Rule 03

Windstorm branches compost, but root balls and sod do not

Thurston County composts yard waste seven days a week at the Waste and Recovery Center, but noxious weeds, dirt, rocks, root balls, and sod are excluded. Loads mixing garbage with yard waste are charged the regular garbage rate.

Rule 04

Bulky curbside pickup in Lacey comes with an extra fee

Thurston County lists LeMay Pacific Disposal as the garbage service for Lacey, and LeMay picks up large, bulky items for an extra fee. The county also notes LeMay can place bins on site for larger cleanup jobs.

Rule 05

HazoHouse is free but rejects leaking or oversized containers

Thurston County residents can drop off household hazardous waste at HazoHouse at no charge, in containers of five gallons or smaller. Broken, leaking, or empty containers are refused, propane containers excepted, and asbestos and bloated or damaged batteries are not accepted.

Rule 06

Clean lumber scraps can ride along with yard waste

At the Waste and Recovery Center, wooden pallets, wood boxes, and lumber scraps are accepted for composting alongside yard waste, and nails are fine. Wood that is treated, painted, or stained does not qualify, so sort it out before you go.

Not without an arrangement with your hauler. Anything set out that isn't part of your regular garbage service or a scheduled pickup can count as illegal dumping. Ask your garbage provider about bulky item rules before setting anything out.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Lacey starts at $95, and curbside or driveway pickup takes a flat $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, depending on the schedule in your area. Entering your Lacey address during booking shows live availability. For curbside pickups you usually don't need to be home. For in-home jobs, someone should be present or leave access instructions.

Junk haulers generally can't take hazardous products like paint, solvents, or chemicals. Thurston County's HazoHouse, at 2420 Hogum Bay Road NE in Lacey, takes them free from county residents daily, 8 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. Call 360-867-2491 to confirm what's accepted.

Loaders aim to donate usable items and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance. Whatever can't be reused or recycled goes to an appropriate disposal facility. Donation and recycling aren't guaranteed for every item, but landfill is the last option.

Often yes, if you have a truck and the time. The Thurston County Waste and Recovery Center on Hogum Bay Road charges disposal fees, and Washington law requires loads to be covered and secured. Paid pickup makes sense when lifting, loading, or the drive is the real obstacle.

The main difference is how pricing works. College HUNKS offers free estimates, and traditional haulers typically price by truck space. LoadUp prices per item online, with the total confirmed before booking, so you know the cost before anyone arrives.
