When junk keeps piling up, it turns into one more thing on your list. LoadUp makes it simple: book a pickup, see your price upfront, and let someone else haul it off.
You search for options, call the town hall, and request a few hauler quotes. One calls back, another wants to stop by next week, and the rest go quiet. Meanwhile, the garage stays full for another month.
Many rural Wisconsin towns don't run a regular bulk collection, so check before you count on one. Municipal pickup schedules that do exist usually have item limits, need advance requests, and expect you to drag everything to the road yourself. On a long or sloped driveway, that last part is hard.
Lots of haulers won't give you a number until someone comes out to look, and that visit has to fit their calendar. Then you get a price based on how much of the truck you fill, which is hard to guess ahead of time. You find out the real cost after it's loaded.
Thrift stores around La Crosse want clean, working items they can actually resell, and that's fair. Stained upholstery, broken appliances, and worn mattresses often get turned away. Most also want you to bring donations to them, which means loading and driving with no promise they'll take everything.
A roll-off makes sense for a full teardown, not for clearing out a basement corner or a shed. You still have to book the delivery and pickup, find level ground that can handle a heavy container, and do all the lifting yourself while it sits there for days.

Bringing a dresser up from a walkout basement and down a steep gravel driveway takes care. Your Loaders are background-checked and rated by real locals in Shelby after each job.
If you have already moved things to the end of a long rural driveway or the edge of the road, outdoor curbside pickup is the simpler fit. If items are still in a garage loft, a basement, or a shed out back on your acreage, choose full-service so your Loader can carry them out and load everything, where access allows.

Anyone in Shelby knows a sloped gravel driveway and a borrowed trailer make a poor pair, especially with a busted sofa from the shed. Skip the trip and the white knuckles. Your Loader looks things over, does the lifting and loading, and takes it all away, and honestly, your Loader loves showing up for folks around here.
Bulky furniture, worn appliances, and garage leftovers all need somewhere to go, and in Shelby that depends on the item and its condition. Your Loader sorts each piece toward reuse, recycling, or disposal when local options allow.
Furniture and household goods that are clean and in good condition may be donated when local options allow. Your Loader can set those pieces aside for reuse instead of sending them straight to disposal.
Items that are worn or damaged but not ready for donation may be recycled where available in the La Crosse area. What can be recycled depends on the item, such as metal appliances or electronics.
Heavily damaged, soiled, or broken bulky items are taken for proper disposal. Your Loader handles the lifting and loading, and the final destination depends on the item and what the La Crosse area allows.
Sorting wrong can mean a load turned away at Large Item Drop-Off or extra fees at the landfill. These rules apply in the Town of Shelby and La Crosse County.
As a state-certified e-waste collector, the Town of Shelby hosts a free January event for broken or obsolete electronic items, with a make-up day if it snows. The 2026 event also offered a dumpster for flattened cardboard.
Large Item Drop-Off does not accept construction or demolition materials over 20 pounds combined, including bricks, concrete, doors, lumber, sheetrock, shingles, and windows. The La Crosse County Landfill accepts demolition debris such as drywall, sinks, toilets, tubs, roofing, carpets, and flooring.
The La Crosse County Landfill accepts old lawnmowers only after the gas and oil are drained. The county's Household Hazardous Materials facility takes automotive fluids, and its services are free for La Crosse County residential users unless otherwise noted.
The Town of Shelby's Large Item Drop-Off at the Town Hall Annex parking lot is for items too big for weekly carts, like mattresses and box springs. Starting in 2026, you may be asked to show a driver's license to prove you live in Shelby.
The La Crosse County Landfill takes grass, leaves, and household plants in paper biodegradable bags only. Town of Shelby guidelines state that burning garbage or leaves is illegal and hazardous to the environment.
Shelby's Large Item Drop-Off puts air conditioners, dehumidifiers, freezers, fridges, and heat pumps into one per-item category covering anything with a compressor. At the county landfill, Freon items go into dedicated recycling containers, and appliances left in general waste areas draw an additional fee.

(678) 884-4738Not beyond normal weekly service. Shelby's refuse ordinance limits households to about one yard of trash per week, in cans of 32 gallons or less and 60 pounds or less. Bulky junk needs a Large Item drop-off day, a hauler, or the county landfill.
LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Shelby starts at $90, 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. Truckload haulers often charge about $75 to $375.
Same-day slots are sometimes open for Shelby addresses, but it depends on Loader availability that day. Enter your address during booking to see the live options. For curbside pickups you generally don't need to be home. For in-home pickups, someone should be there or you can leave access notes.
Hazardous materials such as paint, solvents, gasoline and oil are not accepted at the county's regular drop-off. They go to the La Crosse County Household Hazardous Waste site at 6500 Highway 16, phone 608-785-9999. Freon appliances, tires and brush also follow separate rules.
Loaders try to keep items out of the landfill by sorting on-site. Usable furniture and household goods may go to local donation partners, and recyclable materials go to recyclers when options allow. Anything that can't be donated or recycled is taken to an appropriate disposal facility, depending on acceptance.
You pick your items and a time window online and see the total price before you confirm. Your Loader usually gives a heads-up before arriving, then removes the items from the curb, driveway, garage or inside the home. Steep driveways are worth mentioning in your access notes.
Mainly in pricing and booking. Traditional haulers like 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King generally price by truckload, often after an estimate or on-site review. LoadUp prices per item online, so the total is set before the Loader arrives. For a full-house cleanout, a truckload quote may fit better.
Yes. The county's citizen drop-off at 6500 Highway 16 takes furniture, household waste, brush and yard waste for a fee, but not hazardous materials. Shelby's older posted rates were $120 per ton for garbage and construction waste, so confirm current fees. Doing it yourself costs less if you have a truck and the time.
