Drouco has been serving Lowell, MA families for over 50 years, and storage unit cleanouts is one of the calls we get most often here. Lowell is a true mill city — the canals and downtown lofts, the triple-deckers of Centralville and the Acre, the older homes of Belvidere and Pawtucketville, all packed tight along the Merrimack. From the Highlands to Back Central to the streets around UMass Lowell, we know the dense blocks, the tight driveways, and the parking squeeze. Whether you're over in Belvidere or up in Pawtucketville, we know the route — and we've been doing this work for three generations.
We empty storage units across New England — single 5x10 lockers up to 10x30 climate-controlled units. Most go in one trip. We bring the truck to the unit door, load everything, sort what we can donate, and dispose of the rest properly. You don't need to be on-site if you can give us access.

Why Lowell calls us
Three generations, one phone number
Drouco Waste Removal has been a family-run waste removal business in southern New Hampshire for over 50 years — three generations of the same family showing up, working hard, and treating every job like the customer is our neighbor (because usually, they are). That's not a marketing line — it's how we've stayed in business this long.
No purple bags, no WM appointment — they just took it.
The Lowell disposal guide
Rather haul it yourself? Here's exactly how Lowell's town disposal works — the passes, the hours, the item rules. Or skip all of it and let us handle the run.
- AppliancesWhite goods (fridges, freezers, stoves, washers, dryers) are MA waste-ban items — not curbside; schedule a WM bulk pickup (fee).
- TVs & e-wasteElectronics are banned from curbside trash in Massachusetts — special disposal required.
- Brush & yard wasteYard waste collected seasonally by zone; check the Lowell DPW schedule.
- MattressesMattresses/box springs are MA waste-ban 'illegal' items at the curb (since 11/1/22) — special pickup only.
- Tricky itemsLowell is in Massachusetts, which means hard waste bans: mattresses and box springs are illegal at the curb, and white goods (fridges, freezers, stoves, washers, dryers) and electronics can't go out with normal trash either. Overflow trash needs $1-plus purple city bags (max five a week), and bulky pickups have to be scheduled and paid through Waste Management at 1-800-972-4545. Drouco handles the banned items, the heavy lifting, and the disposal in one trip.
FAQ
Questions Lowell homeowners ask
Can you empty a storage unit in Lowell the same day?
Most of the time, yes. Smaller units (5x10, 5x15) we knock out in an hour or two. Larger units may need a return trip with a second truck.
I'm not in Lowell — can you handle the cleanout without me?
Yes. Coordinate access with the facility, give us the gate code or office contact, and we'll handle everything. We'll send photos of the empty unit so you know it's done.
What if there's stuff in the unit I want to keep?
Flag anything to save before we start. We'll set those items aside or deliver them where you need them.
Do you work with auction-won units?
Yes — we work with several Lowell auction buyers who need fast cleanouts after a win. Quick turnaround, no judgment.
Do you sweep the unit out?
Yes. We leave it broom-swept and ready for the facility's final inspection.
