A loveseat, a sleeper and a sectional can look similar in a photo. Match the shape and features so your online price covers what is actually going.
This example has three structural sections. The cushions do not add to the count.
A straight sofa or loveseat
Choose Standard sofa for fixed seats with no pull-out bed or reclining mechanism. One whole sofa is one item.
A sectional
Count its structural sections, not the loose cushions. Choose the piece count, then check for a sleeper or reclining feature. One sectional booking covers the configuration you select.
A pull-out bed or reclining seats
Choose Sleeper sofa or Reclining sofa for those mechanisms. A single reclining chair has its own Recliner choice. All sofa types also includes futons and sofas with a chaise.

Old furniture is named as a bulky item in the weekly trash pile, which runs once a week on the same day as garbage and recycling for active city garbage customers.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Active City of Tuscaloosa garbage collection customers inside the corporate city limits. The city states that residential customers are not charged for trash and recycling collection.
When & how
Put the furniture at the curb before 6 a.m. from Memorial Day through Labor Day and before 7 a.m. from Labor Day through Memorial Day. Trash may not be placed in the street, and when a city holiday interrupts the week, routes resume on the next scheduled work day.
Get it ready

Carts and the trash pile go out by 6 a.m. in summer and 7 a.m. in winter
Garbage, trash and recycling all come once a week on the same day. Carts and the trash pile have to be at the curb before 6 a.m. from Memorial Day through Labor Day and before 7 a.m. from Labor Day through Memorial Day, carts come out of the city right of way by 8 a.m. the following day, and trash may not be placed in the street. Keep everything more than 3 feet from other carts, recycling bins, trash piles, parked cars, mailboxes, fences and fire hydrants, with the 5 feet the city FAQ asks for around a trash pile, and out from under utility lines.
All garbage is bagged inside the cart, carts are not overfilled and no extra bags are left on the ground. In the trash pile, all leaves and small items have to be bagged, and loose glass is only collected when it is broken into small pieces and placed inside a box that is taped shut.

Do I need to wait at home for couch pickup?+
You do not need to be home when your booked sofa is outside and accessible. Add photos and pickup-location notes to your order so the right pieces are easy to identify. We send updates and completion photos. Confirm any building access restrictions with us before booking.
