The Problem

Getting junk off your property shouldn't take all season

You call the county, look up the nearest convenience site, and message a few haulers. One quotes a visit next week, one never calls back. Meanwhile the pile in the shed hasn't moved since spring.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Out here there's no town truck coming by for bulk items. Prince Edward County runs drop-off convenience sites instead, so you still have to load the heavy stuff, haul it yourself, and check what that site takes before you go.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

A lot of haulers want to drive out first and give you an estimate in person, and that can take a while in a rural spot. Then the price depends on how much of the truck your load fills, so you won't know the cost until it's loaded.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers need things they can actually sell, so a stained mattress, a worn-out recliner, or a dresser missing drawers usually gets turned down. You could load it all up, drive into town, and end up bringing half of it home.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

For one cleared-out room or a few old appliances, a roll-off is more than you need. You'd have to set up delivery and pickup dates, find level ground the truck can reach, and then fill the whole thing by yourself before the rental runs out.

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

Left by the drive or carried out from inside

Curbside pickup keeps things simple when the broken riding mower or a pile of old fence rails is already waiting near the end of your gravel drive. When the load is still sitting in a tool shed, a detached garage, or a spare bedroom, choose full-service and your Loaders will carry it out for you.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Rice, from the Route 460 corridor across Prince Edward County

Out here, a junk run usually means borrowing a truck, wrestling a tarp, and giving up half a Saturday to reach a county disposal site. Your Loader skips all that, carrying everything out of the shed or basement and loading it up. Folks in Rice already have enough chores, and we like showing up for you.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Out in Rice, an old sofa, a worn-out freezer, or a shed full of scrap can sit for months because the nearest drop-off is a drive away. Your Loader sorts each item by condition, when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Furniture, tools, and household goods that are clean and still usable may be donated when local options allow. Your Loader sets them aside, but donation isn't guaranteed, and you shouldn't expect paperwork or tax documentation.

  • 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 damaged but not donatable, like scrap metal, bent fencing, or a dead appliance, may be recycled where available. Options near a small rural town can be limited, so recycling is never promised.

  • 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 items, such as a rotted mattress, water-ruined carpet, or a broken-down couch from a Rice cleanout, are carried out by your Loader and taken for disposal through county-level options.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Rice disposal rules most residents don't know

Dropping a couch beside a green box violates the county solid waste code, and these are the disposal rules that apply in Rice and throughout Prince Edward County.

Rule 01

Renovation debris skips the collection boxes entirely

Prince Edward County prohibits building materials of any type in collection boxes or at collection sites, so remodeling scraps must go straight to the sanitary landfill. The county's solid waste plan notes cinder blocks, asphalt, and brick get reused for landfill access roads.

Rule 02

Spring fires before 4 p.m. are off limits near woods

From February 15 through April 30, Virginia's 4 PM Burning Law bans open burning before 4 p.m. when the fire is within 300 feet of woodland, brushland, or fields of dry grass, a setting common around rural Rice.

Rule 03

The county landfill turns away hazardous waste

Prince Edward County code states plainly that hazardous waste shall not be accepted at the county sanitary landfill, and the county's solid waste plan also excludes medical and infectious waste. Those materials need a separate disposal route before any cleanout.

Rule 04

Green box sites are off limits for furniture and appliances

County code bars stoves, washing machines, refrigerators, bedsprings, mattresses, furniture, and other large bulky items from green box collection sites. Since no waste may sit on the ground there either, these items must go directly to the county sanitary landfill.

Rule 05

Bundle brush under four feet for collection boxes

Leaves, grass clippings, shrubs, and tree limbs are allowed in county collection boxes only when bagged or firmly tied in bundles no longer than four feet. The county burns brush and certain yard wastes at the landfill to reduce buried volume.

Rule 06

Old tires and scrap metal need a landfill trip

Tires, large metal objects, manure, and other waste that will not rot cannot be deposited in collection boxes or at collection sites anywhere in the county. Clearing a barn or shed of these items means taking them directly to the sanitary landfill.

Not unless a pickup is scheduled. Prince Edward County handles waste through its sanitary landfill at 130 Trashmore Road in Farmville, and unscheduled piles can be treated as illegal dumping. Call the county Waste Management office to confirm current rules.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Rice starts at $85, and curbside 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. Local haulers often charge by the load.

Sometimes, depending on crew availability around Farmville and Prince Edward County. Entering your address during booking shows the real open time slots. Rural routes can fill faster than city ones, so booking a day ahead is the safer plan.

Not for curbside pickups. Place items outside with any access notes and Loaders handle the rest. For items inside the home, someone should be present or you can leave access instructions when booking. Loaders typically send a heads-up before arriving.

Hazardous items like paint, chemicals, and batteries generally need special handling and are not normal landfill waste. The county landfill takes household waste, tires, and brush, but it's smart to call ahead about restricted or oversized items before hauling them yourself.

Loaders aim to donate usable items and recycle materials whenever options allow, then dispose of the rest properly. Outcomes depend on what local charities and recyclers around Farmville will accept, so donation and recycling are never guaranteed for every item.

Enter your items online to see pricing, then choose curbside or in-home pickup and a time slot. The total is confirmed before you book. On pickup day, Loaders arrive in the scheduled window, load everything, and haul it away.

LoadUp prices per item online and locks the total before anyone arrives. Many traditional haulers, including national names like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King, price by truckload and may need an on-site estimate. For a full property cleanout, an in-person quote can still make sense.
