The Problem

Getting junk out of a Newark house is harder than it sounds

You search online, call the city, leave messages with a few haulers and wait. One sends a vague quote and another never calls back. Weeks go by and the junk is still in the garage.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Newark's city bulk pickup program can work well for a single bulky item that fits its rules. Some items are left out, pickups have to be requested ahead of time, and the schedule is set by the city. That's a problem if your move-out date won't wait.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to look at the job in person before giving you a price, and then they quote by the fraction of a truckload. The final number often depends on their guess at the curb. You may not know what you owe until the truck is already full.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers need items they can resell, so stained upholstery, broken frames and worn-out appliances often get turned away. Even when they accept furniture, you still have to load it, drive it over and bring back anything they refuse.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container means booking a delivery window and a pickup window, and maybe checking whether you need a permit. It can also tie up your driveway for days and annoy the neighbors. On top of that, you still have to lift everything over the wall 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.

Background-checked Loaders you can trust inside your home

Your Loader handles the narrow, steep stairs of an older home's basement and carries every piece up and out. Each Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Newark after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Set it at the curb or leave it where it sits

If the item is already at the end of your driveway or beside a detached garage, curbside is the simple choice. For anything still in an attic or upstairs bedroom, choose full-service so your Loaders can carry it down and out for you.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Newark, on both sides of the Licking River

Newark already has one famously oversized object, the giant basket building, and it's staying put. Your old sectional and that basement workbench are another story. Your Loaders carry them up the stairs, load the truck, and haul them off, because folks in this town have earned a weekend that isn't spent wrestling furniture.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Where a couch, dresser or old mattress ends up matters as much as getting it out of the house. In Newark, your Loader sorts each item by condition, so donation or recycling comes first when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture, appliances and household goods that are clean and in good working shape may be set aside for donation when possible. Your Loader loads them separately, and acceptance depends on what local donation channels can take.

  • 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 not fit for donation may be recycled where available. Your Loader separates metal, cardboard and other recyclable materials when local options allow, and nothing is guaranteed for a given job.

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

Responsible Disposal

Bulky items that are heavily damaged, soiled or contaminated, like a collapsed sofa or waterlogged mattress, are hauled by your Loader for responsible disposal at an appropriate facility, since reuse is not realistic.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Newark disposal rules most residents don't know

Burning, burying, or dumping the wrong item can lead to a state violation or a criminal littering charge, so here is how disposal actually works in Newark and Licking County.

Rule 01

Remodel debris belongs at a licensed construction and demolition facility

Ohio regulates drywall, lumber, roofing, and other construction and demolition debris under its own licensing law, so it must go to a licensed facility or landfill. Clean brick, concrete, and stone have a separate clean hard fill pathway under state rules.

Rule 02

Old snow tires face a state limit on transport

Seasonal tire swaps leave many Newark garages stacked with worn sets. Ohio requires anyone hauling more than ten scrap tires at once to register as a scrap tire transporter, and tires can never be burned or dumped anywhere in the state.

Rule 03

No leaf or brush fires inside Newark city limits

Under Ohio EPA open burning rules, Newark sits in a restricted area where burning leaves, brush, and other yard waste is prohibited. Garbage, rubber, asphalt materials, and demolition debris cannot be burned anywhere in Ohio, inside or outside city limits.

Rule 04

Refrigerators and window units need refrigerant recovered before scrapping

Federal Clean Air Act rules that apply throughout Ohio require refrigerant in refrigerators, freezers, dehumidifiers, and air conditioners to be recovered before the appliance is scrapped. The final scrap processor must verify recovery, often through a signed statement.

Rule 05

Sofas left beside a dumpster can mean littering charges

Ohio's litter law prohibits leaving items on public property or on private property without the owner's permission. That covers furniture set beside a store's dumpster or along a rural Licking County road, and a violation is a criminal misdemeanor.

Rule 06

Bagged leaves cannot go to an Ohio landfill separately

Ohio has barred landfills from accepting source-separated yard waste since the early 1990s. A load made up only of leaves, grass clippings, or brush must go to a composting facility instead, keeping fall cleanup material out of landfill space.

Not unless your hauler or the city's collection rules allow that specific item. Items left out without an arranged pickup can count as illegal dumping. Check your trash hauler's bulk item policy first, since rules and fees vary by provider.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Newark starts at $75 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 charge, and your exact total is confirmed before booking.

Often, depending on the schedule that day. Booking earlier in the day improves your chances, and next-day slots are more common. Enter your Newark address during booking to see live availability. For curbside pickups, you usually don't need to be home.

Hazardous items like paint, solvents, chemicals, and batteries generally can't go in regular trash or on a haul-away truck. Licking County residents should contact the county's solid waste district for hazardous waste drop-off options and accepted materials before disposing of them.

Loaders aim to keep usable items out of the landfill. Whenever possible, they donate furniture and household goods to local charities, recycle metal and other accepted materials, and only send the rest to disposal. Outcomes depend on item condition and what facilities accept.

Book online, pick the items you want gone, choose a time window, and see your price before confirming. On pickup day, Loaders arrive, carry the junk out of your home, garage, or yard, and load it. You don't need to move anything yourself.

Mainly pricing model and booking flow. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King typically price by truck volume, often confirmed on-site. LoadUp prices per item online and confirms the total before booking. For large cleanouts, truckload pricing can be a better fit.
