The Problem

Getting rid of junk in Merrill takes more than it should

You look up the city's pickup rules, call a hauler or two, and wait on callbacks that never come. A week later, the junk is still sitting in the garage, right where you left it.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Municipal pickup schedules can be a real help, but they usually come with item limits, a set collection window, and rules about what goes to the curb. Hauling heavy furniture out of a basement is still your job. Check with the City of Merrill for current details.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come look before they give you a number, and that means taking time off for a visit. Then the quote is based on a fraction of a truckload, so you won't really know the final cost until the work is done.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers have to be careful about what they accept, so stained upholstery, worn mattresses, and broken appliances often get turned away. You still have to load everything up and drive it over yourself, and some of it may come right back home.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A rented dumpster can take up your driveway for days, may need a permit if it sits on the street, and has to be scheduled for both drop-off and pickup. You still do all the lifting, and the neighbors get to look at it the whole time.

Pickup Options

Set it out front or leave it where it sits

If your items are already in the driveway or next to a detached garage, curbside pickup is the simpler choice. If you have a sleeper sofa in the basement or a dresser upstairs in an older home, choose full-service, and your Loaders will carry it out from where it sits.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Merrill, on both sides of the Prairie River

Anyone in Merrill knows the drill: the snow finally melts, the garage is still full, and the only pickup you can borrow is already spoken for. Old couches and busted freezers don't care about your calendar or the weather. Your Loaders carry it out so you don't have to, and they like showing up for folks here.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items are hard to move and harder to place, so what happens after pickup matters in Merrill. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, aiming to keep usable pieces in circulation and out of the trash when possible.

Local Disposal Rules

The Merrill disposal rules most residents don't know

Mixing appliances, tires, or yard waste into one load can bring fines and the full garbage rate at the county landfill. These rules apply in Merrill and Lincoln County.

Rule 01

Merrill's one large item pickup takes the winter off

Each tax parcel gets one scheduled large item pickup per year through the Merrill Street Department, collected from April 15 to November 1. It covers sofas, mattresses, box springs, chairs, windows, screens, tables, and rolls of carpet.

Rule 02

Wood stove ashes must be fully cold before disposal

The Lincoln County landfill accepts cold ashes as ordinary garbage but lists warm ashes among materials that are not garbage. During heating season, let stove and fireplace ashes cool completely before they go out with household trash.

Rule 03

TVs and computer gear are left out of city bulk collection

Merrill's large item pickup excludes TVs, DVD players, VCRs, computer monitors, computer hard drives, printers, and other computer related equipment. The city has instead promoted electronics recycling events at the Merrill Fairgrounds for residents clearing out old devices.

Rule 04

Pine needles need their own clear bag at the curb

Merrill collects clear bags of compost, clear bags of pine needles, and bundles of brush curbside on your garbage day, but pine needles must be bagged separately from compost. City ordinance also bans putting leaves or grass clippings in street gutters.

Rule 05

Refrigerators and freezers count as CFC appliances at the landfill

Merrill's large item pickup does not take stoves, refrigerators, freezers, microwaves, dehumidifiers, washers, or driers. At the Lincoln County landfill, air conditioners, freezers, refrigerators, and dehumidifiers are classed as CFC appliances, with a per-appliance surcharge if mixed with other waste.

Rule 06

Remodeling debris is sorted by material at the county site

Demolition and construction material is excluded from Merrill's large item pickup. Lincoln County operates a construction and demolition site plus a separate clean wood and brush area, while drywall, treated wood, painted wood, and insulation are charged as garbage.

Not outside your cart. Merrill's automated collection only takes material inside the city-provided carts, and anything placed beside them is not collected. The city does offer one large item pickup per tax parcel per year, scheduled through the City Garage at (715) 536-4222.

Large item pickups are collected from April 15th to November 1st, and you get one per tax parcel per year. You schedule it by calling the Merrill City Garage at (715) 536-4222. Outside that window, or for extra loads, you need another option.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Merrill starts at $90, 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, with the exact total confirmed before booking.

Yes. The Lincoln County Landfill at N4750 Landfill Lane in Merrill lists a 2026 garbage rate of $20 minimum, about $78 a ton. State law requires sorting appliances, tires, batteries, oil and compost from regular waste. Call 715-536-9636 to confirm hours and fees.

Same-day and next-day pickup are offered in Merrill when availability allows. Open slots depend on the day and your address, so you see what is available when you enter your details at booking. Curbside pickups generally do not require you to be home.

Loaders aim to donate and recycle as much as possible, depending on what local charities and recyclers will accept. Usable furniture and goods are routed toward donation when options allow. Items that cannot be reused or recycled are taken to a proper disposal facility.

You book online, choose your items and a pickup time, and see the total before confirming. On pickup day your Loader arrives, hauls the items from inside or outside your home, and takes them away. You do not need to rent a truck or make a landfill trip.

Yes. The city option is free but limited to one large item pickup per parcel each year, in season, and it needs a scheduled call to the City Garage. LoadUp prices per item upfront and can come outside that season. If you only have one big item, the city pickup may be enough.
