Customers Say

Customers love the Load-It-Up Recycling Truck for its sturdy construction and interactive features that keep toddlers engaged for hours. Children ages 2-5 especially enjoy the figures and bins for imaginative play without batteries. However, many parents note the truck produces extremely loud mechanical noise when pushed across floors, making it disruptive in quiet settings.

Bought this toy truck for my 2 years old grandson as a birthday gift. He immediately played with it after opening his gift. Couldn't keep him from playing with it for a long time. Definitely recommend it

Lakeshore learning is more than wonderful

First things first, the truck is wonderful. Now to the other part: they sent a truck and I sent them a mean email because the truck my grandson received was inferior to what I ordered. Too long to go into, but it was 1000% my mistake and not theirs and they handled me so sweetly and courteously. Do business with this company over and over and over again. I will.

Durable Trash Truck

This is the most adorable and very durable Recycling Truck ever!!! Bought it for my 2 year old grandson who is infatuated with Trash Trucks. I love the bright colors and workable side door. Also, the characters and trash bins are an added bonus!!!

Difficult packaging

Three year old grandson likes it. The twist ties holding parts of the toy were next to impossible to get undone. Took forever and broke several nails in the process. I have bought many toys in my lifetime but this was by far the worst for getting out of the package.

Simple and well made

Such a well constructed toy that keeps my 3 year old interested. My family members always buy the most obnoxious, loud, battery- eating toys and I get triggered by noise so easily. For Christmas, I exclusively bought Lakeshore toys including this one. No batteries! No sirens! No music! Very well made! It makes regular plastic clicking and clacking sounds as the kid plays with it and I can handle that. I think the parents complaining about the noise of this truck might be used to quieter toys. I am used to louder one's and this does not bother me. Win.

Loves it!!

my son received this from his grandparents for his birthday. its a top toy in our house and we used it to help him to understand the big trucks that come to pick up the trash as well as the importance of taking his own trash and putting it in the trash can.

Very Loud!

I got this as a gift for my son a few years ago and he and my daughter both love playing with it but my husband and I have both banned them from playing with it when we’re in the same room with them because of how loud it is.

Unexpectedly loud noises

I am a long time fan of lakeshore for my kids. The toys are sturdy, classic and my kids really enjoy them. This recycling truck has been a hit with my 2 year old. However, I was unaware of the amount of noise the toy would make, as different parts move. One of the things I love about lakeshore is the toys are simple and battery free. This was an unfortunate experience for me, and I get overstimulated by noises as a mother to 3, as does my oldest child who is 8. Too late to return it. Really disappointed about the noises of this toy.
