Flat prices in Decatur. Every item.
First item includes the pickup fee. Each additional item is a flat add-on. No hourly rates, no truck-volume math, no on-site estimates.
Mattress Removal
View →Mattress and box spring removal from a Decatur bedroom reset starts at $79 and pairs naturally with a yard-reset clear-out — useful when a move-in/move-out around Indian Hills, Burningtree, or Westmead happens the same week the back yard is being cleared. Standard mattress disposal does not fit the city cart; Dropcurb takes it from the curb same-day with the price locked before booking.
Couch Removal
View →Couch and sofa pickup in Decatur rides out same-day from the curb on the same booking as the yard-reset bulky pile — useful when the back-yard cleanup pulls in a sectional from the screened porch or a room-reset from the Albany Historic District at the same time. Decatur’s combined cart and loader truck are not built for upholstered furniture, and the once-weekly cart day rarely lines up with a yard-cleanup weekend. Dropcurb is curbside-only, $79 starting, with the total locked at checkout.
Furniture Removal
View →Need the dining set, coffee table, or dresser gone alongside the patio set, grill, and gazebo frame? One Dropcurb booking covers the full Decatur yard-and-room reset — outdoor sectional + bedroom set, patio set + dining set — with the total locked at checkout. Same curbside-only model, same $79 starting price, same-day pickup.
Appliance Recycling
View →Old fridges, washers, dryers, dishwashers, ranges, microwaves, and water heaters that surface during a Decatur garage-and-yard cleanout ride out same-day from the curb starting at $79, with the total locked at checkout. Decatur’s combined cart and loader truck are not the right channel for full-size appliances, and contractor and remodel-debris exclusions limit what the city will haul. Dropcurb takes refrigerators, freezers, and window ACs once the freon has been evacuated and the doors removed.
TV Removal
View →Old TVs, computer monitors, and small electronics ride out alongside the yard-reset haul — the city’s combined cart is not the right disposal channel for e-waste, and the Monthly Household Chemical Collection (second Saturday of each month) covers chemicals, not televisions. Dropcurb books the TV or monitor into the same same-day curbside flow as patio furniture and grills, starting at $79.
Construction Debris Removal
View →Same-day pickup for bagged/light construction debris from $109.
E-Waste Disposal
View →Same-day TV removal and electronics pickup starting at $99. Old TVs, monitors, computers, and e-waste recycled responsibly.
Exercise Equipment Removal
View →Treadmills, ellipticals, weight benches, stationary bikes, and home gyms cleared from a Decatur garage during a yard-and-shed reset are too heavy and too awkward for the cart and not on the loader-truck list. Dropcurb takes them same-day from the curb — you stage at the curb, we handle the load and disposal, with the total locked at checkout.
Bulk Junk Removal
View →For a multi-zone Decatur clear-out that pairs the back-yard pile with mattresses, furniture, appliances, and TVs on the same haul, one Dropcurb booking removes multiple curbside items with the total locked before checkout — useful for storm-cleanup weekends, estate cleanouts in the Old Decatur and Albany historic districts, and post-renovation room resets along the Beltline corridor.
Decatur's bulk pickup has limits — we don't
Decatur Solid Waste Department runs a once-weekly automated cart route ((256) 341-4740, 1802 Central Parkway SW; Mon–Fri 7:00 a.m.–4:30 p.m.) on a single combined cart stream — the city no longer separates green waste from household garbage at collection points, and “residents may mix all waste together in gray or green carts provided by the City, regardless of cart labels.” Up to two 95-gallon carts per single-family account; a third cart runs $10.07/month. Residential rate is $22.22/month (2026), with a $5/month alley fee on dwellings serviced via unpaved alleys per Ordinance 18-4329; commercial rate is $48.81/month for up to two carts. Carts at the curb by 6:00 a.m. on collection day, back by 7:00 p.m. A separate neighborhood loader truck handles oversized yard debris and bulky items in the same location as the cart, capped at limbs less than 12 ft long and less than 12 inches in diameter; 1–3 fence panels per pickup; shingles only from minor repairs; small wheelbarrow-full piles of brick or rock from the homeowner; leaves placed behind the curb during non-vacuum months. Contractor debris is excluded entirely (Section 19-9 — “All contractors are required by city ordinance to haul away their debris from work sites… The Solid Waste Department will not haul it.”). Cart bans: paints, solvents, flammables, ashes, dead animals, oils, medical waste, lumber, dirt, concrete, rocks. Fall leaf vacuum collection runs a Mon–Fri continuous clockwise route from late October or early November through January, line (256) 341-4743 — the city asks residents not to commingle limbs or other debris on leaf piles during vacuum season; bagged leaves expedite the route. The Decatur / Morgan County Regional Landfill scalehouse sits ~10 mi west of downtown at 500 Landfill Drive, Trinity, AL 35673 ((256) 341-4993), open Mon–Fri 6:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m. and Sat 7:00 a.m.–11:00 a.m. (hand-unload customers must enter 30 minutes before closing). Tipping for garbage, trash, wood materials, and C&D is $30/ton, with a $16.00 minimum on the first 740 lbs; passenger-tire $6/tire; state-approved asbestos $126/ton. Mulch loading runs Mon–Fri 8:30 a.m.–3:30 p.m. with no Saturday loading — free if you load yourself, $4/ton if landfill staff load. Annual spring and fall mulch giveaway at Wilson Morgan Park on Sandlin Road. Recycling-fee ordinance (effective Oct 1, 2021) charges $26/ton on recycling loads of 500 lbs and over, free under 500 lbs. Monthly Household Chemical Collection drop-off the second Saturday of each month (used motor oil, paint, household cleaners). Cash, Visa, Discover, MasterCard — checks no longer accepted. The river city — 57,938 residents (2020) on Wheeler Lake / the Tennessee River, ~53.4 inches of rain a year, with a heavy spring-storm corridor and a secondary November severe-weather peak — surfaces a steady curbside flow of weather-worn outdoor furniture, hollow play structures, gazebo frames, and storm-bent grills.

Does Decatur offer free bulk pickup?
Yes. Decatur Solid Waste Department runs once-weekly automated cart collection on a single combined stream — the city no longer separates green waste from household garbage at collection points, so yard waste, leaves, and trash all go in either the gray or the green 95-gallon cart (cart labels are now obsolete). A separate loader truck assigned to each neighborhood picks up oversized yard debris and bulky items in the same location as the cart, but loader pickup is capped: limbs must be cut to less than 12 ft long and less than 12 inches in diameter; only 1–3 fence panels are accepted (excessive fencing from contractor or homeowner repair will not be collected); shingles only from minor repairs; brick or rock only in small wheelbarrow-full piles. Lumber, dirt, concrete, and rocks are banned from the cart. Contractor debris is excluded from city service per Decatur Solid Waste Ordinance Section 19-9. Carts must be at the curb by 6:00 a.m. on collection day. Residential rate is $22.22/month (2026) plus $5/month alley fee on dwellings serviced via unpaved alleys per Ordinance 18-4329. Fall leaf vacuum collection runs a continuous Mon–Fri clockwise route from late October or early November through January at (256) 341-4743 — leaves only, no limbs or other debris on leaf piles. The city formally acknowledges loader-truck delays after storm events and at other times when large quantities of debris are generated. Phone: (256) 341-4740 (Solid Waste, 1802 Central Parkway SW; Mon–Fri 7:00 a.m.–4:30 p.m.).
