The Problem

Getting rid of junk in St. Cloud shouldn't take weeks

You look up the city's rules, figure out which county you're actually in, call a couple of haulers, and wait for callbacks that never come. Meanwhile the junk keeps sitting in the garage, week after week.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Free city pickup works well for some households, but city bulk pickup programs usually limit what they'll take, need a request ahead of time, and run on their own schedule. If you're facing a move-out deadline or a full basement, that schedule rarely matches yours.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come out for an in-person estimate before they'll give you a number, then charge by how much of the truck you fill. You often don't know the real cost until the junk is already loaded and it's too late to compare.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers have to be careful about what they accept, so stained upholstery, worn mattresses, and anything broken or missing parts often get turned away. You still have to haul it there yourself, and you might end up hauling it back home.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A dumpster makes sense for a full remodel, not for clearing out one room. You have to find space for it on a narrow driveway, check whether you need a permit, work around the delivery window, and hope the neighbors don't start filling it too.

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.

Vetted Loaders who show up ready to lift

Steep basement stairs and tight landings slow down many cleanouts, so your Loader takes them carefully. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in St. Cloud after each job.

Pickup Options

Set it outside or have it carried out for you

If the old dresser is already in your driveway or beside a detached garage, curbside keeps things simple. For an upstairs bedroom set or anything still inside, choose full-service and your Loader carries it out from where it sits.

Serving St. Cloud, on both banks of the Mississippi

Nobody wants to wrestle a sleeper sofa out of a basement while a January wind chill does its worst, and a borrowed pickup rarely starts happily at ten below. Your Loader does the lifting, carrying, and hauling, and honestly, we like showing up for St. Cloud folks who've earned a warm Saturday.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Local Disposal Rules

The St. Cloud disposal rules most residents don't know

Putting a state-banned item in household trash can break Minnesota law. These are the disposal rules that apply to cleanouts in Saint Cloud and across Stearns County.

Rule 01

Old furnaces and water heaters count as major appliances

Minnesota law counts furnaces, water heaters, dehumidifiers and air conditioners as major appliances, along with refrigerators and clothes washers. All of them are banned from household trash. Units that hold refrigerant must have it removed by a certified technician before recycling.

Rule 02

Burn barrels and backyard fires are off limits for trash

Minnesota bans burning household garbage everywhere in the state, including in burn barrels, fire pits, wood stoves and outdoor boilers. Boxes, packaging and old furniture from a winter cleanout have to be collected or hauled away, not burned, even on rural Stearns County land.

Rule 03

Mercury thermostats and fluorescent bulbs need hazardous waste drop-off

Minnesota bans products that contain mercury, such as older dial thermostats and fluorescent tubes and bulbs, from the trash. Stearns County residents can take them to county household hazardous waste collection instead. This keeps mercury from escaping when glass breaks in a garbage truck.

Rule 04

Fall leaves and brush stay out of the garbage cart

Minnesota bans yard waste from household trash, so leaves, grass clippings and brush must be composted or taken to a yard waste site. Clearing them before the first snowfall avoids frozen piles that are much harder to bag and move in spring.

Rule 05

Swapped-out snow tires cannot go in the trash

Minnesota bans putting waste tires in household garbage or dumping them on land. When you switch tires for the season, take the old set to a tire retailer or a permitted tire collection site so the tires can be processed and recycled.

Rule 06

TVs, computer monitors, and laptops are banned from trash

Minnesota's electronics law bars households from putting televisions, computer monitors and laptops in the garbage, because older screens can contain lead. The same law makes manufacturers pay for collection programs, which support electronics recycling across the state.

Not unless your trash hauler has agreed to take it. Bulky items set out without arrangements can be treated as illegal dumping. Ask your hauler or the city about large-item rules for your address first, since policies vary by provider.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in St. Cloud starts at $95 for a single item, and curbside pickup takes $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, depending on the schedule that day and your address. Entering your zip during booking shows live availability, including same-day and next-day slots. Booking earlier in the day generally gives you more time options.

Stearns County runs a Household Hazardous Waste Facility in Waite Park that serves all county residents. It takes electronics Monday through Saturday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:15 p.m., with card-only screen fees. Hazardous materials generally can't go with a junk hauler.

Loaders aim to donate usable items to local charities and recycle what they can, depending on acceptance. Whatever can't be donated or recycled goes to licensed disposal sites. Outcomes vary by item condition and what local partners will take.

You pick your items and a time window online, and see the total before you confirm. On pickup day, your Loader usually calls ahead and then lifts, loads, and hauls the items away. Curbside jobs don't require you to be home, but indoor pickups need access.

Pricing model. 1-800-GOT-JUNK prices by truck volume for two or more items, with a free on-site estimate, and offers single-item pricing for one item. LoadUp prices per item online, with the total confirmed before booking, so no one has to estimate the load on site.
