LoadUp

What it is
Full-service junk removal — home entry, dump fees out of pocket; jobs are guaranteed work not leads; pick service area by zip; typical job 1–3 large items; occasional assembly/installation. From their own driver pages: you sign up, discuss opportunities with them, complete a background check and provide insurance documentation, then sign a Loader agreement before you start. Work is junk removal, donation pickups, product assembly and moving labour. THE RULE THAT DECIDES WHETHER THIS FITS YOUR LIFE: EVERY JOB REQUIRES TWO PEOPLE — the primary Loader and a helper — and that is their stated requirement, not a suggestion; they give safety and speed as the reasons. A pickup truck alone is possible but they strongly encourage a trailer, because many jobs exceed a truck bed and would otherwise take multiple trips. Their own anti-lead claim, from their App Store listing: you get 'real jobs, PRE-PAID ~ not just leads'. Pay is listed upfront before you accept, you keep 100% of customer tips, there are no franchise fees, and payouts are weekly. You choose how many orders to take and can work around customer service windows rather than committing to a full day. A CORRECTION TO THE LINE ABOVE, from their own subscription pages: 'no franchise fees' does not mean no costs. Loader Points must be bought before you can accept any order, and monthly subscription tiers decide HOW EARLY you see orders at all — the top tier sees them forty-five minutes before someone paying nothing. Their 'pre-paid, not leads' claim is still their claim and still true of the jobs themselves; what it does not tell you is what it costs to reach the queue. Read the cost row before you decide

How you get paid
Per order, with the pay listed upfront before you accept, plus rating bonuses and 100% of customer tips
Requirements people miss
Home entry; dump fees out of pocket. AUTO INSURANCE IS MANDATORY, and general liability is optional but recommended — they say it qualifies you for more jobs; any workers' compensation or occupational accident cover must follow your own state's rules. A background check and a vehicle review come before approval. They recommend a vehicle under 15 years old, though older ones are accepted if mechanically sound — they assess on safety and suitability rather than model year. AND YOU NEED A SECOND PERSON: every job takes a Loader plus a helper; and you buy Loader Points before you can accept ANY order — that is a purchase, not a formality
Worker costs
READ THIS BEFORE THE EARNINGS TALK. Getting jobs here costs money before you earn any. LOADER POINTS ARE REQUIRED TO ACCEPT ANY ORDER AT ALL — you buy them, subscriber or not, and paid points expire after twelve months. On top of that, a monthly subscription does not buy access, it buys EARLIER access: their own tiers are PREMIER at $500 / month for the first fifteen minutes of every order, PREFERRED at $250 / month for the window after that, and ESSENTIAL at $75 / month after thirty minutes. WITHOUT A SUBSCRIPTION YOU WAIT FORTY-FIVE MINUTES, and you still need points — so the question is not whether you can see the work, it is what is left by the time you can. Loaders also cover the background check fee themselves, annually, though they say there are ways to reduce or remove it. None of that is a franchise fee, and their 'no franchise fees' line is true as far as it goes — it just is not the whole cost of working here

Every claim on this card, traced — 11 claims:

How you get in read from the company's own page
doors finale arc (owner directive 2026-08-14): their own drivers page
How you get paid read from the company's own page
debt-tranche2 (owner arc 2026-08-26): their own pages, fetched 2026-08-26: 'payouts typically range ... per order' with 'exact earnings before accepting any job and get paid weekly' — per-order with upfront pay confirmed in their words
Requirements people miss unproven — carried from an older research method and not yet re-read from a source
Inherited at the v8 migration from the record's evidence class (Verified-official). This claim does not yet say where IT came from; the record does.

Taking new people read from the company's own page
debt-paydown (owner arc 2026-08-26): RE-SOURCED FROM UNKNOWN: their own page, fetched this arc, carries an open application flow — the unknown resolved to taking-people on the source's own surface
Vehicle class read from the company's own page
requirements-campaign pass A (owner arc 2026-08-25): encoded from this record's own vehicle_text — 'truck or large vehicle — a pickup alone is possible'. The tier restates the recorded requirement on the filter's ladder; the prose stays the authority and renders unchanged.
Vehicle details unproven — carried from an older research method and not yet re-read from a source
Inherited at the v8 migration from the record's evidence class (Verified-official). This claim does not yet say where IT came from; the record does.
Vehicle needed read from the company's own page
vehicle-model-phase2 (owner arc 2026-08-25): restates this record's sourced vehicle_tier under the five-state model — its own words state a vehicle class with no no-vehicle lane and no bike/scooter option (see the vehicle_tier claim for the source)
What it is read from the company's own page
debt-paydown (owner arc 2026-08-26): the value's own internal citation names the provider surface it came from (a later arc wrote sourced content into a field whose claim level never flipped); that surface was fetched again this arc — the receipt is in the value and the fetch is dated 2026-08-26
