The Problem

Getting rid of junk in Pocatello takes longer than it should

You look up the rules, call the city, leave messages with a couple of haulers, and wait for callbacks that never come. A few weekends go by, and the junk is still sitting in the garage.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

City bulk pickup programs can work if your schedule fits theirs. Most have item limits, and appliances, tires, or hazardous materials often need separate handling. You also usually have to request a pickup ahead of time and get everything to the curb yourself, which is hard without a second pair of hands.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to see the job in person before they'll quote it, so you lose an afternoon just to get a number. Then the price depends on how full the truck gets, and you might not find out what you owe until the work is done.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Local thrift and donation shops need items they can resell, so anything stained, broken, or worn out usually gets turned down. Even good pieces mean loading them up and driving them over yourself, and you may still have a pile of stuff nobody will take.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off container makes sense for a full remodel. For one spare room, it's a lot: you have to book delivery and pickup, it may need a permit if it sits on the street, it takes over your driveway for days, and you still do all the lifting.

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 out front or leave it where it sits

Curbside is the simpler choice if the item is already in your driveway or near the street. For a treadmill parked in the basement or a workbench at the back of a detached garage, choose full-service, and your Loader will carry it out for you.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Pocatello, all along the Portneuf River

Pocatello is a town built on hills, and anyone who has walked a dresser down a sloped driveway knows gravity only helps in one direction. Skip the borrowed truck and the second trip. Your Loader does the lifting, carrying, and loading, and we genuinely like showing up for the neighbors who make this place feel like home.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items pile up fast in Pocatello garages, basements, and sheds, and where they end up matters. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, favoring donation or recycling when local options allow before disposal.

Donation Pickup

Items in good, clean condition may be set aside for donation when local options allow. Your Loader handles the lifting and loading, but donation is not guaranteed and no receipt is promised.

  • 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 materials, like metal frames or some appliances, may be recycled where available. Your Loader loads them, and acceptance depends on local recycling options.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Pocatello disposal rules most residents don't know

In Pocatello and across Bannock County, a contaminated yard waste cart can turn a routine collection into a paid extra pickup, so these rules are worth knowing first.

Rule 01

Big cleanouts and remodels can use a city dumpster rental

Pocatello's Sanitation Department rents dumpsters to homeowners, business owners, and contractors for cleanup projects. It is a city-run option when renovation debris or a full garage cleanout simply will not fit in the weekly curbside garbage cart.

Rule 02

Fall leaves need paper bags during a short November window

For 2026, Pocatello collects curbside leaves from November 2 through November 28. Leaves must be in paper compostable bags, sold at local hardware and grocery stores, and set out by 7 a.m. on your regular garbage day. They become compost at the Bannock County Landfill.

Rule 03

Old electronics can go to a free city drop-off bin

Pocatello Sanitation Services takes consumer electronics free of charge in a gray electronics bin, including laptops, printers, scanners, cell phones, hard drives, and LCDs (flat monitor screens and TVs). Older tube-style sets do not appear on the posted accepted list.

Rule 04

Paint, pesticides, and motor oil stay out of every cart

The city asks residents to properly dispose of unwanted oil, paint, pesticides, and herbicides, and any container that once held them is barred from the recycling cart. Household hazardous waste can be dropped off free at the Bannock County Landfill.

Rule 05

Curbside recycling only starts when someone asks for it

Recycling is included with residential garbage service in Pocatello but stays off until the customer opts in, and for rentals the owner or property manager must request it. Cardboard boxes are accepted, but never bag recyclables, since plastic bags plug sorting machines.

Rule 06

Glass containers belong at drop-off bins, not the blue cart

Pocatello's blue cart takes certain papers, plastics, and metals, but glass is handled separately through drop-off bins located throughout the city. Clearing out a pantry, basement, or bar cart means sorting glass containers out before anything goes curbside.

Not safely. Pocatello's curbside carts are for regular household trash, and I couldn't confirm a free bulk pickup schedule. Call the city Sanitation Department at 208-234-6192 before setting large items out, since unapproved piles can be treated as illegal dumping.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Pocatello starts at $80, 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.

Often, yes. Same-day and next-day slots are offered in Pocatello when availability allows, and entering your address at booking shows what's open. For curbside pickups you don't need to be home. For in-home pickups, someone should be there or leave access instructions.

Sometimes. Bannock County charges $37 per ton for household waste and $29 per ton for construction waste at the Fort Hall Mine Landfill, so a small load can be cheap. You still need a truck and time to load it, and a fridge-type unit costs $20 extra.

Loaders aim to keep usable items out of the landfill. Depending on acceptance, furniture and household goods may go to local donation centers such as Deseret Industries on Roosevelt Avenue, and recyclables go to recyclers. Whatever can't be reused or recycled is disposed of properly.

Household hazardous waste like paint, chemicals, and solvents shouldn't go in regular trash. Bannock County takes it at the Fort Hall Mine Landfill on the first Saturday of each month, April through October. Ask any hauler about their restricted items before booking.

You pick your items and enter your Pocatello address online, then choose a time slot and see your total upfront. A Loader typically calls or texts before arriving, picks up the items, and hauls them away. No in-person estimate is needed.

The main difference is the pricing model. Traditional haulers generally charge by truckload and often confirm the price after seeing the pile. LoadUp prices per item online and locks the total before booking. A full truckload cleanout may still suit a big hauler better.
