The Problem

Getting junk out of a Taylor home is harder than it looks

You check the borough website, leave a voicemail, and request a few hauler quotes. One calls back, one wants to visit first, one never answers. Two weekends later, the junk is still in the basement.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Municipal pickup schedules help with the basics, but bulky loads often come with item limits, advance requests, and set collection days. Appliances, renovation debris, and anything stuck downstairs may not qualify, and nobody carries it to the curb for you.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to come out and look before they give you a number, then charge by how much of the truck you fill. You often find out the real cost only after everything is loaded, and by then it's hard to say no.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Usable items may find a new home when local options allow, but donation centers turn away worn, stained, or broken pieces. They also won't climb your stairs to get anything. What they reject is still yours to deal with.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off can mean permit questions, delivery windows, and a big steel box blocking your driveway or a narrow street for days. You still do all the lifting yourself, and you pay for space a one-room cleanout never fills.

Steady hands for the heaviest part of the job

Narrow basement stairs in an older home can turn a dresser into a puzzle, and your Loaders work it out. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Taylor after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

Set it at the curb or leave it where it sits

If the old treadmill or recliner is already in your driveway or by the street, curbside pickup keeps things simple. For pieces still upstairs in an older two-story house or tucked in the back of a detached garage, choose full-service and your Loaders will carry everything out from inside.

Neighborhoods Served

Proudly serving Taylor and neighbors across Lackawanna County

Let's be honest, hauling an old dresser up and down hilly streets in a Northeastern Pennsylvania winter is nobody's idea of a good time. Snow, slush, and tight stairwells make it worse. Your Loaders do the lifting, carrying, and loading, because the folks of Taylor have shoveled enough and deserve a break from heavy things.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items rarely belong in one place after they leave your property, so where they end up matters in Taylor. Your Loader sorts each load by condition, favoring donation or recycling when local options allow.

Gently Used

Donation Pickup

Usable items in clean, good condition may be donated when local options allow. Your Loader handles the lifting and loading, but you should not expect any donation paperwork from the job.

  • Tax-deductible receipt by request
  • Diverts waste from landfill
  • Free up your space and help a neighbor

Visible Wear

Recycling

Items that are worn or damaged but still have recyclable parts, like metal frames or older exercise equipment, may be recycled where available. Your Loader separates what can be diverted when possible.

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

Heavily Damaged

Responsible Disposal

Heavily damaged, soiled, or broken bulky items that can't be donated or recycled go to an appropriate disposal site. Your Loader carries them out and loads them so you don't have to.

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

Local Disposal Rules

The Taylor disposal rules most residents don't know

Bagging leaves in plastic or dumping junk can mean a skipped pickup or a quality of life ticket. These rules apply in Taylor Borough, Lackawanna County.

Rule 01

Mixing recyclables into trash can leave your bags behind

Recycling is mandatory for every Taylor residence, and the borough reserves the right not to collect trash that contains recyclables. Cardboard has its own pickup stream, and residents are asked to break it down and bundle it before setting it out.

Rule 02

Pennsylvania bans TVs and computers from household trash

Under the state's Covered Device Recycling Act, televisions, desktop and laptop computers, computer monitors, tablets, e-readers and computer peripherals cannot go out with municipal trash. Manufacturers must fund recycling programs, so look for manufacturer take-back options before a cleanout.

Rule 03

Junk from outside Taylor cannot go to your curb

Borough code bars setting out refuse or recyclables generated outside Taylor's limits for borough collection, or hauling it into town for that purpose. Putting anything at the curb also counts as consent for the borough to open and inspect it.

Rule 04

Fall leaves need to be out before yard waste season ends

Taylor collects leaves, grass clippings, small branches and garden waste on Mondays from April until a final pickup in late November, set for November 23 in 2026. Plastic bags are prohibited, so use paper compost bags or open-top 32 to 38 gallon containers.

Rule 05

Garage chemicals go to one county event each year

Lackawanna County holds an annual household hazardous waste collection at Montage Mountain for preregistered county residents. It accepts oil-based paint, gasoline, kerosene, propane tanks, fire extinguishers and fluorescent lightbulbs, but not latex paint. The 2026 event is set for October 31.

Rule 06

Taylor's code presumes ownership of illegally dumped junk

Taylor's property maintenance code includes an ownership presumption for illegal dumping and illegal hauling of waste, trash and recyclables, enforced through the borough's quality of life ticket system. Public litter cans are also limited to small handheld trash, not household waste.

Only what your regular trash service accepts. Taylor partners with WM for residential waste, and bulky items typically need to be arranged with the hauler, not just set out. Confirm bulk rules with WM or the borough first, since unapproved piles can draw fines.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Taylor starts at $80, and curbside or driveway pickup takes a flat $5 off. The first item includes the base pickup fee, and each additional item is a flat add-on charge, with the exact total confirmed before booking.

Often yes. Booking before noon generally opens up same-day or next-day pickup in the Taylor area, depending on crew availability. Enter your address during booking to see the real openings. For curbside jobs, you usually do not need to be home.

A private hauler is the usual fallback. Regular WM service in Taylor generally covers bagged household trash, not furniture, construction debris or hazardous materials. Loaders can haul many bulky items, though paint, chemicals and similar hazardous items are typically not accepted.

Loaders try to keep usable items out of the landfill. Whenever possible they route furniture and household goods to donation partners and recyclables to recycling facilities. Acceptance varies by item and condition, so donation or recycling is not guaranteed for every load.

You pick your items and a time slot online, see the total upfront, and book. A Loader typically calls or texts before arriving, then removes the items, whether they are inside or out at the curb. You pay after the job is done.

The main difference is pricing. 1-800-GOT-JUNK has a Scranton location that serves nearby towns and typically quotes by the volume of the load. LoadUp prices per item online and confirms your total before booking, which can suit small jobs better.

For regular bagged household trash, yes. Your existing WM service is the cheaper choice for that. Private junk removal makes more sense when you have bulky items, a cleanout, or something that needs to go on a specific day.
