The Problem

Getting rid of junk in Moorhead is harder than it looks

You search online, call the city, leave messages with a few haulers, and wait. One quotes a range, another never calls back. Meanwhile the pile in the garage stays put, and another weekend slips by.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Municipal pickup schedules can help, but they come with limits. Some items need special handling, pickups usually have to be requested ahead of time, and you still have to get everything to the curb yourself. That doesn't work if your junk is in a basement.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come out and look before they'll give you a number, then price by how much of the truck you fill. You may not know the real total until the job is done, and that makes it hard to plan around.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers look at condition, and that's fair. Stained upholstery, worn mattresses, and broken furniture often get turned away, and some places can't take large items at all. If you're left holding what they won't accept, you still have to find a way to get rid of it.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container means planning delivery and pickup, possibly getting a permit, and having a big bin in your driveway for days. Neighbors notice. On top of that, you still do all the lifting yourself. For one room of junk, it's far more than you need.

Pickup Options

Set it out front or leave it where it sits

Plenty of Moorhead homes have a driveway or detached garage, so curbside works well when your items are already outside and your Loaders can load them right there. For a treadmill in the basement or a back bedroom packed with boxes, choose full-service and your Loaders will carry everything out from inside.

Neighborhoods Served

Proudly serving Moorhead from the Red River to the rest of Clay County

Anyone who has driven across this flat country knows the wind has nothing to slow it down, which turns a loose mattress in a pickup bed into a kite with a bad attitude. Skip the dump run. Your Loaders lift, carry, and load it for you, and they genuinely like showing up for Moorhead neighbors.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items pile up fast in a Moorhead garage or basement, and where they end up matters as much as getting them out. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, favoring donation or recycling when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture and household items in good, clean condition may be donated when local options allow. Your Loader lifts, carries, and loads them, and sorts out what is suitable for a donation channel where available.

  • Tax-deductible receipt by request
  • Diverts waste from landfill
  • Free up your space and help a neighbor
See donation pickup
Visible Wear

Recycling

Items that are worn or damaged but still have reusable materials may be recycled when possible. Your Loader separates things like metal, wood, or cardboard so they can be diverted where local recycling is available.

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

Responsible Disposal

Heavily damaged, soiled, or contaminated bulky items, like a ruined sectional or a waterlogged mattress, are taken for responsible disposal. Your Loader handles the heavy loading and confirms details at booking.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Moorhead disposal rules most residents don't know

Putting a couch or old TV out with regular trash can bring a special pickup charge or break state law. Here is what Moorhead and Clay County require.

Rule 01

Glass bottles and jars stay out of blue totes

Moorhead's no-sort curbside recycling does not take glass, even though most other containers can go in the blue tote together. Several of the city's recycling drop sites have bins for glass, so jars cleared from a pantry or basement can still be recycled.

Rule 02

Minnesota bars major appliances from the garbage stream

State law prohibits putting major appliances such as refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers, water heaters, and air conditioners in mixed household garbage. Refrigerants, mercury switches, and other hazardous parts have to be removed before the metal can be recycled.

Rule 03

Yard waste goes curbside only during the warm months

Moorhead collects yard waste at the curb on your regular garbage day from early May to late September. Use biodegradable lawn bags or a garbage can no larger than 32 gallons, and plan fall leaf raking before collection stops for winter.

Rule 04

Furniture outside Clean Up Week is billed as a special pickup

Except during Clean Up Week, Moorhead treats furniture and other large household items as special pickups. These are arranged through Moorhead Sanitation, and the household is charged collection and disposal fees. Timing a cleanout around Clean Up Week can avoid those charges.

Rule 05

Old tube TVs and monitors are banned from Minnesota trash

Minnesota law prohibits putting anything that contains a cathode ray tube in household garbage, because the glass in these older televisions and computer monitors contains lead. They have to be recycled as electronics, not put in your garbage tote.

Rule 06

Garage chemicals belong at Clay County Household Hazardous Waste

Moorhead sends building and paint chemicals, garden pesticides and weed killers, automotive supplies, oil and oil filters, and fluorescent bulbs to Clay County Household Hazardous Waste instead of the garbage tote. Fluorescent bulbs contain mercury, which Minnesota keeps out of household trash.

Not unless it fits your regular trash service rules. Oversized items or piles left out without arranging pickup with your hauler or the city can be treated as illegal dumping. Check with Moorhead's solid waste office for current bulk item rules.

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

Sometimes, depending on Loader availability for your address. Enter your zip code during booking to see live same-day and next-day openings. Availability is usually tighter on weekends and around the end of the school year near the campuses.

Not for curbside or driveway pickups. Leave items outside with access notes. For items inside, someone should be present, or you can give entry instructions at booking so Loaders can reach everything.

Hazardous materials such as paint, solvents, batteries and chemicals generally can't go in household trash, and large appliances and electronics often have special disposal rules. Ask Clay County or your hauler about drop-off options for these items.

Loaders aim to donate usable items to local charities and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance. Items that can't be donated or recycled go to an appropriate disposal facility. Outcomes vary by item condition and what local organizations are accepting.

Choose your items online, pick a time window, and see your total before confirming. On pickup day your Loader arrives in the window, confirms the items, removes them, and handles loading and hauling. You don't need to move anything to a truck yourself.

Pricing model and booking flow. Many traditional haulers price by truckload and confirm the cost at an on-site estimate. LoadUp prices per item online and confirms your total before booking. For large cleanouts, a truckload hauler can sometimes be the better fit.
