The Problem

Getting rid of junk in Union shouldn't take all month

You check the city's trash rules, call a couple of haulers, and wait on callbacks that never come. One week turns into three, and the pile in the garage or barn is still sitting right where it was.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Inside city limits, the Monday trash route takes one bulky item per collection, and it has to be something two people can carry and under six feet long. Major appliances, tires, and contractor debris are excluded, and country addresses outside town aren't on the route at all.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Most haulers want to come look before they'll quote, which means taking time off to meet someone. Then the price is based on how much of the truck you fill, a number that can shift once loading starts and the pile looks bigger than it did on the phone.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Thrift stores and charities need things they can actually resell, so stained upholstery, broken bed frames, and worn-out recliners often get turned away. Even when something qualifies, you still have to load it, haul it there, and figure out what to do with everything they passed on.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A roll-off sits in your driveway for days, blocks the garage, and can tear up the lawn or gravel when it's dropped and pulled. You're also stuck doing all the lifting yourself, and for a basement or a single shed, most of that bin goes unused.

Vetted Loaders who show up ready for the heavy part

Your Loader carries a dead chest freezer up steep basement stairs or out of a cramped barn loft. Every Loader is background-checked and rated by real locals in Union after each job.

  • Local, vetted Loaders
  • Licensed & insured
Pickup Options

End of the driveway or right where it sits

Curbside is a good fit if the scrap lumber or old riding mower is already sitting by the road or at the top of your driveway. If the job means a long gravel drive, a back shed, or an upstairs bedroom in an older in-town home, choose full-service and your Loader will carry everything out from where it sits.

Neighborhoods Served

Serving Union, from Highway 50 to the last county road

Anyone with a long country driveway knows a pile behind the barn won't shrink on its own, and one pickup bed only goes so far. Your Loader handles the lifting, carrying, and hauling, from shed to basement stairs. Your Loaders genuinely enjoy showing up for Union's neighbors, and they're glad to take this one off your list.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Bulky items don't all end up in the same place, and that matters in a county seat like Union, where cleanouts range from tidy garages to worn-out outbuildings. Your Loader sorts each item by condition and local options.

Local Disposal Rules

The Union disposal rules most residents don't know

Putting the wrong item at the curb or in a landfill can bring rejected loads or state dumping violations. These Missouri rules apply in Union and throughout Franklin County.

Rule 01

Battery retailers must take back old lead-acid batteries

Lead-acid batteries from cars, trucks, boats, and riding mowers are banned from Missouri landfills. State law also requires retailers to accept a customer's used battery when a new one is purchased, which makes a battery swap the simplest legal exit from a Union garage.

Rule 02

Concrete and brick count as clean fill in Missouri

Missouri law classifies uncontaminated soil, rock, concrete, brick, and cinderblocks as clean fill rather than solid waste. Drywall, shingles, carpet, and painted lumber from a remodel do not qualify and must go to a permitted disposal facility.

Rule 03

Major appliances are kept out of Missouri landfills by law

Washers, dryers, water heaters, and other major appliances cannot go into Missouri landfills, including units ruined when the Bourbeuse River floods. Refrigerators, freezers, and air conditioners also need their refrigerant recovered under federal rules before scrapping.

Rule 04

Computer makers owe Missouri residents a free return option

Missouri requires manufacturers selling computers in the state to offer consumers free recovery of their own brand of desktop computers, laptops, and computer monitors. Televisions fall outside that law, so old tube TVs need a separate recycling outlet.

Rule 05

Leaves and brush have been banned from landfills since 1992

Missouri barred yard waste from landfills to save space, so leaves, grass clippings, and storm-downed limbs are handled apart from household trash. After spring storms or fall leaf drop, home composting or mulching handles smaller loads without any landfill trip.

Rule 06

Whole tires cannot be landfilled anywhere in Missouri

Missouri prohibits landfilling whole waste tires, and a fee collected on new tire sales funds the state's tire cleanup work. Tires left stacked behind a Union garage collect rainwater and can breed mosquitoes through the humid summer months.

The City of Union runs a scheduled yard waste and bulk item pickup alongside its Wednesday recycling and yard waste service. Dates change, so check the city's posted schedule first. Items set out off-schedule can be treated as illegal dumping.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Union starts at $75, 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.

Same-day pickup is sometimes available in Union, depending on Loader availability for your address. Enter your zip code during booking to see live time slots. Next-day and later dates are typically easier to get, especially on weekends.

Not for curbside or driveway pickups, since you can leave items out with access notes. For items inside your home, someone should be there or you can leave entry instructions when booking. Your Loader typically gives notice before arriving.

Yes, the Franklin County Transfer Station accepts household solid waste at about $55 per ton with a $10 minimum, and card payments are taken. It's often cheaper for a small load if you have a truck. Fees can change, so confirm before you go.

Loaders aim to donate usable items and recycle what they can, depending on what local charities and recyclers will accept. Items that can't be reused or recycled are taken to a proper disposal facility, so landfill is the last option, not the first.

Pick your items and zip code online, choose a time window, and see your total before you confirm. On pickup day your Loader arrives, carries the items out, and loads them, so you don't have to lift anything or haul a truck yourself.

The main difference is pricing. Traditional haulers usually price by truckload and often confirm the cost on-site, while LoadUp prices per item online and locks the total before booking. For a few items that can cost less, but large cleanouts may suit a truckload hauler.
