What to Expect
Full-service removal breakdown
Kiln disposal service details
Kiln removal pricing is based on the size and configuration of the unit, how many items are being removed, and the access required to reach it. A compact hobby kiln in an open garage will price differently than a large ceramic kiln in a basement or a multi-shelf studio unit that needs to be separated from its stand. Your upfront price reflects these factors before your Loaders arrive.
If your kiln is hardwired to a dedicated circuit, you will need to have it disconnected by a qualified electrician before pickup day. Plug-in electric kilns and gas kilns with disconnected supply lines are ready to go as-is.
Kilns and firing equipment we pick up
LoadUp accepts a wide range of pottery, ceramic, and hobby kilns along with common firing accessories.
- Electric pottery kiln
- Ceramic kiln
- Glass fusing kiln
- Hobby kiln
- Front-loading kiln
- Top-loading kiln
- Gas kiln
- Kiln with stand
- Kiln shelves and posts
Options & add-ons (clearly priced)
Your booking total is transparent from the start. Optional adjustments like stairs, stand separation, or additional firing accessories are clearly shown during checkout so your final price is accurate and surprise-free when your Loaders arrive.
Volume discounts
The more you remove, the more you save. Discounts apply in real time as items are added.
Flights of stairs
Stairs add time and labor, which is factored in upfront to keep pricing fair for everyone.
Item disassembly
For items that need to be taken apart, add disassembly to your booking during checkout.
Donation drop-off
Choose whether eligible items should be donated when possible during checkout.
Sustainability efforts
When local options allow, your Loaders prioritize donation or recycling for kilns that are still in working condition or have usable components. Disposal outcomes vary based on the kiln's condition, local facility availability, and demand for used firing equipment in your area.

Contact usKiln pickup typically starts around $205, though your final price depends on the size and type of kiln, how many items are being removed, and whether you book curbside or in-home pickup. A large ceramic kiln in a basement will price differently than a compact hobby kiln already sitting in an open garage. You see your exact price before you confirm, so there are no surprises when your Loaders arrive.
If your kiln plugs into a standard outlet, you just need to unplug it before your Loaders arrive. If it is hardwired to a dedicated circuit, you will need to have a qualified electrician disconnect it before pickup day. Your Loaders handle lifting and hauling only and do not perform any electrical work, so the kiln must be fully disconnected from its power supply before they can take it.
Yes. Your Loaders can pick up the kiln from wherever it sits on your property, including inside a studio, garage, or basement. You do not need to move it to the curb first. When you book in-home pickup, your Loaders navigate the space, do the lifting, and haul the kiln out for you.
It depends on the pickup type you book. If you book curbside pickup, you do not need to be home as long as the kiln is placed in an accessible outdoor location before your Loaders arrive. If you book in-home pickup, someone must be present to provide access to the space where the kiln is located.
Your Loaders make disposal decisions based on the kiln's condition and what options are locally available. When possible, a working kiln may be donated or its usable components directed toward recycling. Disposal outcomes vary depending on local facility availability and demand for used firing equipment, so a specific outcome cannot be guaranteed.
You can leave kiln shelves, posts, and similar accessories inside or alongside the kiln and your Loaders will take them. If you want accessories removed as part of the same pickup, include them when you book so your price reflects everything being hauled away. Disposal of ceramic and refractory accessories follows the same approach as the kiln itself, handled based on what local options allow.
