How it works
- 1Post it. One to four photos, the street address, your mobile number. Say if it's at the curb now or give a pickup window.
- 2A hauler claims it. Haulers near Lawrence get an alert and see a rough map area — never your address. When one claims it you get a text with their name, rating and ETA.
- 3You confirm, they come. Tap "It's still here" in the text. That unlocks your address to that one hauler. They pick it up, you get a text, you rate them.
What haulers take
- Washers, dryers, dishwashers, stoves
- Fridges, freezers, window ACs and dehumidifiers (the cooling gas has to be pulled first — the hauler knows)
- Water heaters, boilers, radiators
- Grills (propane tank off), bikes, exercise equipment
- Copper pipe, wire, brass fixtures, aluminum siding or gutters
- Lawn mowers, snow blowers, tools, car parts
- Filing cabinets, metal shelving, bed frames, patio furniture
Mostly-metal items only. Couches, mattresses, TVs and plastic aren't scrap — a hauler won't come for those.
Questions people in Lawrence ask
- Is it really free?
- Yes. The hauler earns from selling the metal at a scrap yard. There is no charge to you and no payment to the hauler — the post says so and both sides agree to it.
- Who shows up?
- A local scrap hauler who uses Scraplift. You see their first name and rating before you confirm, and only one hauler gets your address.
- How does the hauler get my address?
- They don't, until you say so. Haulers see a rough area on a map. When one claims your post you get a text — tap "It's still here" and the exact address unlocks for that one hauler only.
- Do I need an account or an app?
- No. Post from your phone's browser with a photo, the address and your mobile number. Texts keep you updated; a link in each text shows the status.
- What if nobody comes?
- Posts stay live for 48 hours. If nobody claims it you get a text with a one-tap repost. Most posts in Lawrence get claimed within a few hours.
- What about my old fridge or AC?
- Post it. Scrap yards require the refrigerant to be recovered first, so some haulers skip these and some handle it — the hauler sees the warning before they claim.
