The Problem

Lauderdale has junk options, just not easy ones

You search online, look into city pickup, request a few hauler quotes, and wait. One company never calls back, another wants to see it first. Meanwhile, the pile sits in the garage another weekend.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Bulky pickup here usually goes through your household trash service. You request it ahead, wait for the scheduled day, and drag everything to the curb yourself. Appliances, mattresses, and electronics can come with extra Minnesota handling rules, and from a third-floor walk-up, the curb is a long way down.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to send someone out for an in-person estimate before they name a price, then quote by fractions of a truckload. You won't know whether your pile counts as a quarter or a half until the truck is already sitting in your driveway.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

A sofa with a pet stain, a dresser missing a drawer, or a scuffed bookshelf can get turned away at the door. Donation centers need items they can resell, and even when they say yes, you still need a vehicle big enough to get it there.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

Renting one means checking whether your street or building allows it, booking drop-off and pickup dates, and giving up a parking spot on a tight residential block for days. On compact lots between Minneapolis and Saint Paul, that's a lot of steel for one room of clutter.

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.

Loaders your neighbors have already rated

A sleeper sofa wedged in a narrow apartment stairwell or a dresser behind basement steps is routine for your Loaders, who are background-checked and rated by real locals in Lauderdale after each job.

  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Set it at the curb or leave it right where it is

Curbside is the simpler fit if your junk is already out on the driveway or next to the garage of a single-family home. If a recliner is still inside a second-floor apartment or down in a basement, choose full-service, and your Loaders will carry it out to the truck for you.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Lauderdale, and the whole Twin Cities metro

Minnesota weather has opinions about your junk pile: January ice on the stairwell, a July heat wave in the garage, and a couch that was never going to fit in a hatchback anyway. Your Loaders lift it, carry it out, and clear it away, because neighbors in a city this small deserve a weekend that's actually theirs.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items are hard to handle alone, and in a compact city like Lauderdale, where many homes are apartments, knowing where a couch or mattress ends up matters. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, favoring donation or recycling when possible.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household goods in good, clean condition may be set aside for donation when possible. Your Loader lifts them out and, where local options allow, they can go to a new home instead of a landfill.

  • 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 fit for donation, such as scrap metal or old appliances, may be recycled when local options allow. Your Loader sorts them from the rest of the load.

  • Materials sorted and recovered
  • Diverted from landfill where possible
  • Compliant with local waste regs

Heavily Damaged

Responsible Disposal

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Lauderdale disposal rules most residents don't know

Putting a furnace, tube TV, or bag of leaves in the trash breaks Minnesota law. Here is what applies to cleanouts in Lauderdale and across Ramsey County.

Rule 01

Burning cleanout trash is illegal, even in a wood stove

Minnesota bans burning household garbage statewide, whether in a burn barrel, backyard fire pit, or indoor wood stove. On cold days that rules out feeding plastic packaging, painted or treated wood, or leftover trash into the fireplace, since the smoke releases toxic pollutants.

Rule 02

Old furnaces and water heaters count as major appliances

Minnesota's definition of major appliances goes beyond fridges and washers to include furnaces, water heaters, heat pumps, and air conditioners. State law keeps all of them out of household trash so refrigerants, capacitors, and mercury switches can be removed before recycling.

Rule 03

Fluorescent tubes and mercury thermostats stay out of the garbage

Minnesota prohibits placing mercury-containing lamps and thermostats in household trash, since a single broken tube can release mercury vapor. Basement shop lights and old dial thermostats removed during a heating upgrade both need to be recycled instead.

Rule 04

Plastic bags are off-limits for metro-area yard waste

In the Twin Cities metro, including Lauderdale, Minnesota law requires leaves, grass clippings, and garden waste to be set out in compostable bags or reusable containers, never mixed with trash. Ramsey County yard waste sites also accept brush and tree trimmings.

Rule 05

Ramsey County takes household chemicals free at collection sites

Garage and basement cleanouts often turn up pesticides, solvents, antifreeze, and oil-based products that should never go in household trash. Ramsey County residents can drop these off at county household hazardous waste sites at no charge with proof of residency.

Rule 06

Tube TVs and monitors are banned from Minnesota trash

State law prohibits placing electronics containing a cathode ray tube in household garbage, because the lead inside can leach into the environment. Bulky tube televisions and old computer monitors from basements need a dedicated electronics recycling route.

Not safely. I couldn't confirm a city-run bulk pickup in Lauderdale, so loose junk left outside may be treated as illegal dumping. Your trash hauler or city hall can confirm bulk rules. Ramsey County's recycling hotline is 651-633-3279.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Lauderdale 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. Availability depends on the schedule near Lauderdale that day, so enter your address at booking to see open times. For curbside pickups you don't need to be home. For indoor pickups, someone should be there or leave access instructions.

Ramsey County offers free household hazardous waste drop-off sites for residents, covering items like paint and oil. Call the 24/7 hotline at 651-633-3279 for locations and accepted items. These usually can't go in regular trash or a standard junk haul.

Loaders sort items and aim to donate usable pieces and recycle what they can, depending on what local charities and recyclers accept. Anything that can't be donated or recycled goes to a disposal facility. Outcomes vary by item and condition.

Pick your items and address online, choose a time window, and see your price before confirming. On pickup day, Loaders arrive, load the items, and clean up the area. Many residents near the U of M campus book for apartment move-outs.
