The Problem

Getting junk out of Medford takes more than it should

You look up what the city allows, call the county, and leave messages with a couple of haulers. One calls back days later, another never does. Meanwhile, the junk is still sitting in the garage.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Small towns don't always run a regular bulk pickup, and the ones that do usually set limits. Appliances, mattresses, and electronics often need special handling, items have to be dragged to the curb, and you work on their schedule. It helps, but it won't fit every cleanout.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come out and look before they'll give you a number, which means another day waiting at home. Then the quote is based on a fraction of a truckload, so you can't really tell what you'll owe until the work is done.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift stores and charities want clean, working items they can resell, and they have every reason to be choosy. Worn furniture, stained mattresses, and broken appliances usually get turned away, so you're still loading up the truck and driving home with half of it.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container makes sense for a full teardown, not for clearing out a spare room or one corner of a shed. You still have to set up delivery and pickup, give up driveway space for days, and do all the lifting and tossing 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 by the driveway or leave it where it sits

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Medford, from the Straight River to the I-35 corridor

Around here, a worn-out recliner or a busted sofa usually means borrowing a trailer, bracing against a Minnesota winter wind, and making the drive up to Owatonna more than once. Nobody needs that. Your Loaders do the lifting from the garage, barn, or basement, and they genuinely like showing up for neighbors in a town like Medford.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Out in Medford, a worn recliner or an old chest freezer can sit in a shed for years because moving it is the hard part. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, so reuse comes first when possible.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture, tools, and household goods in clean, usable shape may be donated when local options allow. Your Loader sets those items aside, though donation is never guaranteed and depends on what nearby outlets will accept.

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

Visible Wear

Recycling

Items that are damaged but still have usable parts, like metal frames or appliances, may be recycled where available. Minnesota rules limit some categories, so your Loader sorts what can be recycled and what can't.

  • Materials sorted and recovered
  • Diverted from landfill where possible
  • Compliant with local waste regs
See common questions
Heavily Damaged

Responsible Disposal

Heavily damaged or soiled bulky items, such as a water-ruined sofa or a broken mattress, go to proper disposal. Your Loader handles the lifting and loading so nothing is left in your garage or barn.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Medford disposal rules most residents don't know

Tossing a refrigerator, tube TV, or old tires in the garbage breaks Minnesota disposal bans. These are the rules that apply to households in Medford and Steele County.

Rule 01

Worn-out tires cannot be tossed or buried in Minnesota

State law bans disposing of waste tires in the land, so they cannot go in household garbage headed to a landfill. Tires stacked behind a garage can also hold water and breed mosquitoes once the weather warms, so recycling them matters.

Rule 02

Leaves and brush must stay out of the trash cart

Minnesota law prohibits putting yard waste in household garbage or landfills. Medford residents may use the Owatonna Yard Waste Compost Site instead. That helps after spring snowmelt uncovers a season of fallen branches and matted leaves.

Rule 03

Medford households choose their own private trash service

Garbage service in Medford is handled by private providers, and residents pick the one that fits their needs. Because there is no single city program, whether a couch, mattress, or other bulky item gets collected depends on each provider's terms.

Rule 04

Freezers, water heaters, and furnaces are banned from Minnesota landfills

Minnesota requires major appliances, such as refrigerators, freezers, clothes washers and dryers, hot water heaters, furnaces, and dehumidifiers, to be recycled instead of landfilled. Refrigerants and other hazardous parts must be removed before the metal is processed.

Rule 05

Burning old lumber or shingles in a burn barrel is illegal

Minnesota prohibits open burning of household garbage and building materials, including treated or painted wood, shingles, and plastics. For rural Steele County properties, remodeling and demolition debris needs to go to a permitted facility rather than a backyard fire.

Rule 06

Old tube TVs and monitors cannot go in the garbage

Minnesota has banned products containing cathode-ray tubes, such as older televisions and computer monitors, from household trash because the glass contains lead. Steele County Environmental Services coordinates residential recycling for Medford households and is the place to ask about electronics drop-off options.

Not unless your hauler or the city has approved it. Medford is a small city, so trash service is usually through a private hauler, and bulky junk set out without arrangement can be treated as illegal dumping. Call City Hall to confirm current rules.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Medford starts at $95 for a single item, 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 Loader schedules near the I-35 corridor and Owatonna, and you can see open times by entering your address when booking. Curbside items don't require anyone to be home, while indoor pickups need access arranged.

Hazardous items like paint, solvents, batteries, and chemicals generally can't go in household trash in Minnesota. Many items also need special handling, such as appliances with refrigerant or electronics. Check with Steele County Solid Waste for accepted drop-off items and fees.

Loaders aim to donate usable items to local charities and recycle materials like metal or cardboard whenever possible, depending on acceptance. Whatever can't be reused or recycled goes to an appropriate disposal facility, and outcomes vary by item and condition.

You select your items online, see the price, and pick an arrival window. A Loader usually calls or texts before arriving, then removes the items from where they sit, such as a garage, driveway, or curb. Payment is handled after the job is done.

Driving it yourself can be cheaper if you have a truck and only a few loads, since you pay just disposal fees. A hauler makes sense for heavy or bulky items, or when you lack time or a vehicle. Compare the cost of your time and gas.

Pricing model and booking. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King typically price by truckload, often with an estimate on arrival. LoadUp prices per item online, so you see the total before booking. Truckload pricing can suit very large cleanouts.
