Alpharetta's municipal pickup covers the basics, but it won't touch half of what ends up in your garage after a renovation or a move. Between Fulton County rules and limited scheduling windows, clearing junk from a suburban home here takes more planning than most residents expect. This page walks through every option.
Most Alpharetta residents end up googling, calling, getting quoted, and often ghosted. A week later the junk is still sitting there. The options exist. They just don't work together.
Alpharetta's city pickup program takes furniture and bagged junk curbside, but service can run several days out and typically excludes mattresses, Freon appliances, and construction debris. If your item doesn't qualify, you find out after the truck doesn't take it.
In-person estimates. Truck-load pricing. Final bills 30% above the quote. The hauler model is built for the hauler, not for someone with one couch and a Tuesday.
Local donation centers do amazing work: clean, current, fully-functional items only. Nobody's taking your 2009 sectional with the cat damage.
Permits, scheduling, neighbor side-eye. Dumpsters make sense for renovations, not for clearing out a basement on a Saturday afternoon.

No waiting on callbacksLocal Loaders arrive at your location, haul away the junk, and dispose of it responsibly when options allow.
No in-person charges
Most companies charge by truck space, and the price often changes on arrival. LoadUp charges by item, based on exactly what you're removing.
Fulton County's bulk pickup service handles a reasonable range of items on a scheduled basis, but it draws hard lines at construction debris, appliances with refrigerants, and electronics. LoadUp fills that gap — same-day or next-day, with upfront pricing and no curb-sorting required.

LoadUp proudly serves Alpharetta with local Loaders who know the area and show up ready to help. Wherever you are in the city, we help residents reclaim their space with same-day pickup.
Items are often bulky and hard to move alone, which is why junk removal is a top request. LoadUp routes each item to donation or disposal based on condition, keeping as much as possible out of landfills.
Items in clean, structurally solid condition are routed to local charity partners: Habitat ReStore, shelter-program partners, and verified resellers.
Items with stains or damage that can't be donated still have value. Frames, metal, and other materials can be recovered through certified recycling facilities.
Broken, soiled, or biohazard-affected items are disposed of through proper waste channels in Alpharetta: no illegal dumping, no curbside abandonment, always fully compliant.
Ignore these and your junk sits at the curb until code enforcement notices. Here is what actually applies in Alpharetta and Fulton County.
Fulton County does not allow residents to simply leave oversized junk at the curb on regular collection day. You need to call ahead and schedule a bulk pickup, and slots can fill up weeks out during peak moving season.
Refrigerators, window AC units, and dehumidifiers contain refrigerants regulated by the EPA. Venting Freon is illegal. Any appliance with a sealed refrigerant system must be drained by a certified technician before disposal.
Computers, monitors, and televisions cannot go in the regular trash in Georgia. Fulton County directs residents to designated drop-off events or certified e-waste recyclers. Leaving electronics curbside will get your pickup skipped entirely.
Drywall, lumber, tile, and other renovation waste from your Windward or Avalon-area remodel will not be touched by the regular hauler. You need a private service or a rented dumpster for any project-generated debris.
These items are difficult to compact and often carry bed bug concerns. Fulton County's bulk program may accept them wrapped in plastic, but unwrapped mattresses left curbside are frequently rejected and can draw code violations.
Alpharetta's yard waste collection runs on a separate schedule from bulk trash. Mixing branches, leaves, or grass clippings with household junk will result in neither pile being collected. Keep them separated at the curb by at least three feet.

(678) 884-4738Not without a scheduled pickup. Alpharetta follows Fulton County disposal rules, and items left curbside without authorization can be cited as illegal dumping. Your regular trash hauler may offer bulk pickup on a scheduled basis, but most limit the number of items per collection cycle. For larger loads, a junk removal service is the faster path.
Through LoadUp, single-item pickups typically start around $69-$150 depending on the item. Full cleanouts for garages or homes start around $349. Traditional truckload haulers in the Alpharetta area usually quote $200-$600 depending on volume. Your regular waste hauler's bulk pickup may be included in your service, but it's limited to a few items at a time.
Yes, same-day availability is offered in most Alpharetta zip codes when you book before noon. Next-day pickup is available across the area including Windward, Avalon, and North Point. Enter your zip code during booking to confirm live availability for your specific address.
Refrigerators, freezers, and window AC units contain refrigerants that must be properly evacuated before disposal under federal law. Most curbside haulers won't take them without a certified Freon removal tag. LoadUp handles the refrigerant recovery as part of the pickup — no tag needed on your end.
Items are sorted after pickup. Furniture and household goods in usable condition are routed to local donation partners, including Habitat for Humanity ReStore and Goodwill locations in north Fulton County. Electronics go to certified e-waste recyclers. Materials that can't be donated or recycled are taken to the appropriate disposal facility.
For curbside jobs, no — just leave your junk in the designated spot and add access notes when you book. For indoor or garage cleanouts, someone should be present or you can provide entry instructions ahead of time. Your Loader will call about 30 minutes before arriving at your Alpharetta address.
The biggest difference is pricing transparency. 1-800-GOT-JUNK and Junk King charge by truckload and typically require an in-person estimate before confirming a price. LoadUp prices per item online with the cost locked before anyone arrives. For one- or two-item jobs common in Alpharetta neighborhoods, that usually means a lower total cost.
Yes. Full-property cleanouts are available across Alpharetta, from Downtown Alpharetta condos to larger homes in Brookshade or Glen Abbey. You can book online with photos or a description of the space, get an upfront quote, and schedule a crew. Multi-room jobs are typically completed in a single visit depending on volume.
