Junk has a way of piling up until it's all you notice. Book a pickup with LoadUp, see your price upfront, and get your space back without lifting a thing.
You search online, call the county, and leave messages with haulers who either never call back or won't make the trip. Meanwhile the junk stays put, one more season deep in the garage.
Point Roberts is unincorporated, so it has no city government to run a free bulk pickup program. What you get depends on your own waste service, and bulky items, appliances, and anything hazardous usually aren't covered. You may end up making a run to drop it off yourself.
Many haulers want to look at the job in person before they'll give you a price, then charge by how much of the truck you fill. That's hard to plan around, especially if you're managing the property from somewhere else and can't be there to see the estimate.
Donation centers only take items they can resell. Stained upholstery, worn-out appliances, and anything broken or missing parts get turned away, and that's fair. You still have to load it, haul it there, and figure out what to do with whatever they won't take.
A dumpster makes sense for a full renovation, but not for clearing one room. You have to schedule the drop-off and pickup, find a spot for it on a quiet residential lot, and then do all the lifting and tossing yourself while it sits in the driveway.

Your Loader carries a sleeper sofa down a narrow cabin staircase or clears a packed detached garage. Your Loaders are background-checked and rated by real locals in Point Roberts after each job.
If your old washer is already in the carport or at the end of a gravel driveway, curbside pickup keeps things simple. If you're managing the property from out of town, or the pieces are still inside a cabin or basement, choose full-service and your Loaders will carry everything out for you.

In a place this far out on the peninsula, a dump run is rarely a quick errand: a couch in the truck bed, a border line to plan around, a day gone. Your Loaders are glad to do the lifting, carrying, and loading, because your neighbors here deserve a day that stays their own.
Where a couch, dresser, or old mattress ends up matters on a peninsula with limited local options. In Point Roberts, your Loader sorts each item by condition, favoring donation or recycling when local options allow.
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 so usable pieces have a chance at a second home.
Items that are worn or damaged but not fit for donation may be recycled where available, such as metal frames or wood pieces. Your Loader separates what can be reused from what cannot, when possible.
Heavily damaged, soiled, or contaminated bulky items go to responsible disposal. Your Loader carries them out and loads them, and because Point Roberts is geographically isolated, the final drop-off may be off the peninsula.
Point Roberts garbage cannot be disposed of in Canada, so hauling or sorting mistakes can cost extra trips and time. These rules apply in Point Roberts and Whatcom County.
The Point Roberts transfer station accepts green waste in the form of grass, brush, and leaves, and it must be compactable. The county has offered free drop-off days in late spring and summer. Outside those days, the standard per-pound fee applies.
In Washington, the Utilities and Transportation Commission regulates solid waste collection and issues the certificates that collection companies must hold. Whatcom County does not certify collection companies itself, and it does not provide collection services directly.
Point Roberts is surrounded by British Columbia, but the Canadian government will not allow the Point's garbage to be disposed of in Canada. Commercial garbage vehicles have to clear customs at two borders each way to carry waste to disposal sites near Bellingham.
Point Roberts Emergency Preparedness runs a Neighbors Helping Neighbors program. It has organized help for people who are physically unable to haul their garbage to the Johnson Road transfer station, which can matter for older or injured residents facing a cleanout.
Whatcom County Code 8.11 created a solid waste recycling and collection district that makes collection mandatory. The district covers every unincorporated area of the county except Diablo and Newhalem, so Point Roberts households are inside it.
Whatcom County owns the Johnson Road transfer station and leases it to a private operator. Residents bring their own solid waste there, and bulk waste is prepared there for shipping off the Point to disposal sites near Bellingham.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Point Roberts starts at $95 for a single item, and curbside or driveway pickup takes $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.

Yes, Cando Recycling & Disposal runs a transfer station in Point Roberts where residents can self-haul trash and recycling. Fees and hours can change, so call 360-945-2636 first. Self-hauling costs less if you have a truck and time, while a pickup saves the lifting.
It can. Point Roberts is only reachable by land through British Columbia, so hauling junk to a mainland facility means crossing the border twice. Keeping items on the peninsula, through the local transfer station or a pickup service, avoids that.
Loaders try to donate usable items and recycle materials whenever options allow, and avoid the landfill where they can. What gets donated or recycled depends on item condition and what facilities will accept. Anything left over is taken to an appropriate disposal site.
You pick your items online, see the price, and choose a time window. A Loader typically contacts you shortly before arriving, then carries the items out and hauls them away. The total is confirmed before booking, so you aren't quoted a new price in your driveway.
The main difference is the pricing model. Many traditional haulers charge by truckload and may estimate on site, while LoadUp prices per item online and confirms the total before booking. For a few items that can cost less, but a full-property cleanout may suit a truckload hauler.
