The Problem

Getting rid of junk around here takes more than it should

You search online, call the county, leave messages with a few haulers, and wait. One never calls back, another wants to come look first. Weeks later, the junk is still sitting in the garage.

Free city pickup is great, when it works

Westwood is unincorporated, so there is no city-run bulk program. What you can use depends on your trash service, which may limit item types, sizes, or how often you can schedule pickup. Even then, you still have to drag everything to the curb yourself.

Traditional haulers play pricing games

Many haulers want to send someone out for an in-person estimate before giving you a price. Then the quote is based on how much of the truck your load fills, so you don't know what you'll actually pay until the crew is standing in your driveway.

Donation centers are picky (rightly)

Donation centers only take items they can resell, so anything stained, broken, or worn out gets turned away. Most don't take old appliances or scrap at all, and you still have to load everything and drive it over yourself.

Dumpster rental is overkill for one room

A dumpster makes sense for a full renovation, not for clearing one basement. You have to book the delivery, find level ground for it on a sloped lot, fill it with no help, and look at it in your yard until the hauler comes back for it.

  • 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.

Your Loaders do the lifting, carrying, and loading, and genuinely enjoy showing up for neighbors who would rather spend the weekend on the porch.

What Happens to Your Junk

Donation first, recycling second, landfill last

Local Disposal Rules

The Westwood disposal rules most residents don't know

Skipping required garbage service or burning the wrong pile can bring a violation notice, so here is how disposal works in Westwood and across Boyd County.

Rule 01

Old tires wait for state amnesty events or a recycler

Kentucky's Waste Tire Amnesty program, paid for by a fee on new tire sales, rotates through counties and lets residents drop off tires free. Between events, the state lists a tire recycler in Boyd County, and tire piles holding rainwater breed mosquitoes.

Rule 02

Every Boyd County household needs a garbage collection plan

Kentucky requires each county to run a universal collection program, and Boyd County enforces it by expecting households to use an authorized garbage service or show that waste reaches an approved facility. Because Westwood is unincorporated, county rules, not city ones, apply.

Rule 03

Brush burning hours shrink during Kentucky fire hazard seasons

From February 15 through April 30 and October 1 through December 15, Kentucky bars outdoor burning within 150 feet of woodland or brushland between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. Westwood yards backing onto wooded hillsides fall under that limit.

Rule 04

Refrigerant has to come out before a fridge is scrapped

Federal Clean Air Act rules require refrigerant in refrigerators, freezers, window air conditioners, and dehumidifiers to be recovered before final disposal. Scrap recyclers accepting these appliances must confirm the refrigerant was removed, so expect questions or a signed statement at drop-off.

Rule 05

Remodel debris has a local landfill outlet, but no free days

The Boyd County Sanitary Landfill accepts construction waste from individuals as well as crews, plus wood waste such as pallets and scrap lumber. The landfill does not currently offer free drop-off days, so plan on a disposal charge.

Rule 06

Selling scrap metal in Kentucky means showing photo ID

State law requires scrap metal recyclers to record each seller's identity, including a government-issued photo ID, before buying. The rule exists to discourage metal theft, so carry identification when taking old fencing, gutters, or appliance shells to a Boyd County scrap yard.

Not unless it fits your regular trash service. Westwood is unincorporated Boyd County, so rules depend on your hauler or county. Bulky piles left out can count as illegal dumping in Kentucky. Check with your provider before setting anything out.

LoadUp pricing for junk removal in Westwood starts at $85 for a single item, 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.

Sometimes. Availability depends on Loader schedules near Westwood and Ashland that day. Enter your address during booking to see open times, including same-day or next-day slots. Booking earlier in the day improves your odds.

Not for curbside or driveway pickups, since items can be left out with access notes. For items inside the home, someone should be there or you can leave entry instructions when booking. Hilly driveways are worth mentioning in your notes.

Hazardous materials are the usual limit, such as paint, chemicals, fuel, and asbestos. Large construction debris may also need a different service. If you're unsure about an item, ask before booking, and check Boyd County for local disposal options.

Loaders aim to keep usable items out of the landfill by donating them to local charities when options allow. They try to recycle what they can, such as metal and cardboard. Outcomes depend on what facilities accept, and the rest goes to proper disposal.

Choose your items online, enter your Westwood address, and pick a time window. You see the exact price before you confirm. On pickup day your Loader typically contacts you before arriving, then removes the items and hauls them away.

The main difference is the pricing model. Many traditional haulers price by truckload and may confirm a quote on site. LoadUp prices per item online and confirms the total before booking. For large cleanouts, a truckload hauler can be a better fit.
