The Problem

Getting rid of junk out here takes more than it should

You look up the county's rules, call a couple of haulers, wait on callbacks that never come, and try to book a pickup window that works. Weeks go by, and the junk is still in the garage.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Three Lakes is unincorporated, so there's no city bulk pickup to call. Any bulky-item service usually goes through a private hauler account, with its own limits on what it takes and when it comes. You still have to drag everything out to the road yourself.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to see the job in person before they'll give you a number, and that can mean waiting days for someone to drive out. Then the price is based on a vague share of the truck, so you don't know the real cost until loading is over.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift stores turn away stained upholstery, worn mattresses, and anything with broken parts, and they're right to. Even items they do want usually have to be dropped off by you, which means a truck, a helper, and a drive into town.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A dumpster only makes sense for a full renovation. For a cluttered shed or one spare room, you're booking delivery and pickup dates, finding level ground on a gravel or sloped driveway, and still lifting every heavy piece over the side 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.

Pickup Options

Set it out yourself or leave it where it is

Curbside fits when you can get items to the end of your driveway yourself, though on long, sloped, or shared gravel drives that trip adds up fast. Full-service makes more sense for a basement sectional or a packed garage, since your Loaders carry everything out from inside the house.

Serving Three Lakes, from Highway 9 out to the Cascade foothills

Let's be honest, a dump run from a long, sloped gravel driveway is a rough way to spend a Saturday, especially when October rain turns the last stretch to mud and the load shifts in the truck bed. Your Loader does the lifting, carrying, and loading, and genuinely likes showing up for neighbors out here.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items pile up fast on rural lots, and where they end up matters as much as how they leave. In Three Lakes, your Loader sorts each load by condition, favoring donation or recycling when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Clean, usable furniture, household goods, and gear may be set aside for donation when local options allow. Your Loader keeps these pieces separate from damaged items during loading so they stay in good shape.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Three Lakes disposal rules most residents don't know

A misjudged dump run can mean a refrigerator that gets turned away or a surcharge for an untarped load, so here is how disposal works in Three Lakes and unincorporated Snohomish County.

Rule 01

TVs, computers, and monitors need an electronics recycler instead

Snohomish County solid waste facilities do not accept TVs, computers, or monitors and refer residents to electronic recyclers. Smaller electronics without embedded batteries, such as printers, vacuums, and air fryers, can go in as regular garbage.

Rule 02

Uncovered loads now trigger a higher surcharge at county facilities

Every load arriving at a Snohomish County solid waste facility must be covered with a tarp or net and secured with rope, bungee cords, netting, or straps. Starting in 2026, the unsecured load fee rose to $20 or $25, depending on vehicle type.

Rule 03

County transfer stations no longer take yard waste or clean wood

Snohomish County no longer accepts yard debris or clean wood at any county solid waste facility. Where offered in unincorporated areas, curbside yard debris collection is a separate, optional subscription, picked up at least twice monthly March through October and monthly November through February.

Rule 04

Household hazardous waste drop-off is free for unincorporated residents

County code sets no service fee for household hazardous waste from residents of unincorporated Snohomish County. The county's Haz Waste Station takes household drop-offs Wednesday through Saturday, and loads over 40 gallons require an appointment.

Rule 05

County drop box sites cap each load at five cubic yards

At Snohomish County drop box sites, garbage is billed by volume rather than weight, and each customer may bring a maximum of five cubic yards per load. Estimate volume by multiplying length, width, and height in feet, then dividing by 27.

Rule 06

Refrigerators and anything containing Freon are refused at county sites

Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, heat pumps, water coolers, dehumidifiers, and Freon cylinders are not accepted at Snohomish County solid waste facilities. Other appliances that are at least 85 percent metal are taken as recycling, which carries no charge.

Not unless it is part of your regular garbage service. Three Lakes is unincorporated Snohomish County, so there is no city bulk pickup program. Dumping unwanted items on roadsides or public land is illegal dumping, which the county cleans up through its Litter Wranglers program.

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

Yes, and it is often the cheapest route if you have a truck. Cathcart Way Recycling & Transfer Station in Snohomish charges by weight, with a $20 minimum for loads up to 360 lbs and $105 per ton above that (2024 schedule). Fees may change.

For curbside or outdoor pickups, usually not, since you can leave items out with access notes. For in-home pickups, someone should be there or you can leave access instructions at booking. Availability varies by address, so check your zip during booking.

Hazardous materials like paint, chemicals, and fuel generally can't go in regular trash or standard junk loads. Transfer stations also set load limits, and Cathcart Way only accepts vehicles that unload mechanically. Check with Snohomish County Solid Waste before hauling restricted items.

Loaders try to donate usable items and recycle materials whenever options allow, depending on acceptance by local charities and recyclers. Whatever can't be donated or recycled is taken to an appropriate disposal facility. Outcomes are never guaranteed for any specific item.

Enter your items and address online to see a real-time price, or text a photo of your items for a quote. Pick a time, and your Loader handles the heavy lifting on pickup day. The total is confirmed before anyone arrives.

The main difference is the pricing model. Traditional haulers typically charge by truck volume and often confirm the price on site. LoadUp prices per item online, with the total confirmed before booking. For a large full-property cleanout, a truckload hauler may suit you better.
