The Problem

Lithia has junk options, just not easy ones

You search online, call the county about bulk pickup, and request a few hauler quotes. One calls back, another never does, and the HOA rules need a second read. Weeks later, the junk still sits in your garage.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Lithia is unincorporated, so bulk collection depends on Hillsborough County schedules and sometimes your HOA. You usually have to request it ahead of time, item limits can apply, and some things may not qualify. Your stuff still has to get to the curb, and you're the one carrying it.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to see the job in person before they'll quote it, which means waiting around for a visit. Pricing by the fraction of a truckload makes the final number hard to guess, and it can change once the crew starts loading.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift stores and charities usually take only clean items in good condition, and many won't accept worn mattresses, broken furniture, or older appliances. Even when they say yes, you often have to haul everything over yourself, and whatever they turn down comes back home with you.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container means booking delivery and pickup windows, finding room on the driveway, and checking whether your HOA or CDD lets you have one at all. For a single garage corner or spare room, that's a lot of steel sitting out front for days.

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.

Local Haulers

Vetted Loaders who show up ready to lift

A packed garage or a narrow side gate to the backyard can slow any haul, but your Loaders handle the carry. Each Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Lithia after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Driveway-ready or carried out from where it sits

On a larger lot where yard debris or an old play set is already out by the driveway, curbside (outdoor) pickup keeps it simple; just know some HOA communities set their own rules about items left outside. Full-service fits when a dresser sits upstairs or the garage is packed wall to wall, since your Loaders carry everything out from wherever it sits.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Lithia, from the Alafia River to FishHawk Ranch

Lithia lots run big, and so do the piles that build up on them: fallen limbs, a retired trampoline, a garage that stopped being a garage. Summer thunderstorms rarely help the timing. Your Loader does the lifting and hauling, and honestly, they like showing up for neighbors who take pride in their corner of Hillsborough County.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items pile up fast in Lithia, from garage clutter to backyard play sets, and where they end up matters. Your Loader sorts each load by condition, steering items toward donation, recycling, or disposal when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household goods in good, clean condition may be donated where available. Your Loader can set aside usable pieces for a donation channel, though acceptance depends on what local organizations are able to 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 ready for donation may be recycled when possible. Your Loader can separate materials like metal or wood, though what gets recycled depends on local options and item condition.

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

Heavily Damaged

Responsible Disposal

Heavily damaged, soiled, or broken bulky items go through responsible disposal. Your Loader hauls them away from your Lithia home, and they are handled at an appropriate Hillsborough County area disposal site.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Lithia disposal rules most residents don't know

Go past the County's yearly drop-off allowance and you pay commercial disposal charges instead, so here is how disposal works in Lithia under Hillsborough County's unincorporated-area rules.

Rule 01

Self-hauled yard waste is covered up to two tons yearly

Curbside yard waste goes out once a week in a bag, box, or container you supply. Bigger loads of limbs and fronds can be self-hauled to the Northwest or South County yard waste facilities, up to two tons yearly, where free mulch is available too.

Rule 02

Tires beyond twelve a year go to Southeast County Landfill

Hillsborough County Solid Waste customers can drop off up to 12 tires per year at Community Collection Centers as part of their annual assessment. Any tires past that limit must be taken to the Southeast County Landfill, where a tipping fee applies.

Rule 03

Leftover paint and electronics need only a photo ID

Any Hillsborough County resident can bring limited quantities of paint and household electronics to the five Community Collection Centers with a photo ID, no tax bill required. Closed-toe shoes are mandatory at every center, so leave the flip-flops at home.

Rule 04

Twenty moving boxes count as one bulky pickup item

Lithia residents can request a special curbside pickup for items too large for the gray cart, and the County counts 20 cardboard boxes as a single item. The request must be scheduled before anything is placed at the curb. Each item is billed separately.

Rule 05

Household chemicals have their own Saturday collection schedule

Household hazardous waste is classed as non-collectible, so it stays out of curbside carts. Beyond the Community Collection Centers, the County runs collection events the first three Saturdays of each month at rotating locations, accepting limited quantities.

Rule 06

Bulky drop-offs are capped at ten cubic yards yearly

County customers get 10 cubic yards of bulky waste and appliance disposal per year at Community Collection Centers, roughly five loaded pickup trucks. Items must be unloaded by hand, dump trailers are not allowed, and you need photo ID plus your property tax bill.

Yes, but only by request. Lithia is unincorporated, so Hillsborough County Solid Waste handles bulky items like sofas, mattresses and appliances that won't fit in the gray cart. Special pickups generally run $30 to $50 depending on size and type. Call (813) 272-5680 to schedule.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Lithia starts at $80, and curbside or driveway pickup takes a flat $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. County special pickups are cheaper at about $30 to $50 per item.

Same-day slots are sometimes open in the Lithia area, depending on Loader availability in your zip code. Enter your address during booking to see live options. For outdoor pickups, you generally don't need to be home. For in-home pickups, someone should be there or leave access notes.

The Southeast County Landfill at 15960 C.R. 672 in Lithia accepts bulky household waste and construction debris for a fee. It's often the cheapest route if you own a truck and can load heavy items yourself. Hauling it away is the better fit if you can't lift or transport it.

Household hazardous waste like paint, solvents, pesticides, cleaners and certain batteries can't go in your cart or a bulky pickup. Hillsborough County runs separate household hazardous waste collection for these. Alkaline batteries are the exception and can go in the garbage.

Loaders aim to donate usable items to local charities and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance. Whatever can't be reused or recycled goes to licensed disposal sites. Donation and recycling outcomes vary by item condition and what facilities will accept.

You select your items online and get an upfront price before confirming. Pick a pickup window, and your Loader will notify you before arriving. On pickup day they load everything, and the price you were quoted is the price you pay.

The main difference is the pricing model. Traditional haulers typically charge by truckload and may confirm the price on site. LoadUp prices per item online, with the total confirmed before booking. For large cleanouts, a truckload-based hauler can sometimes be a better fit.
