You do not need a whole house of junk. Select the bags, boxes and larger items you actually have. Your combined price is shown online.
You want to know it is handled.
When the next collection does not fit your plans, choose a Dropcurb pickup day. Updates keep you informed, and completion photos show when the booked items are gone.
A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.
Filled bags and boxes
Count each trash bag or filled household box. Books and media go by the box. Clothes, bedding and shoes go by the filled bag. Toys packed together have a Box of toys choice. Ask us about unusually heavy or oversized bags and boxes first.
Empty cardboard and containers
Empty cardboard is a different choice: choose single empty boxes or tied bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Compacted bales have their own weight-based choices and require loading-dock access. A Storage bin choice covers the empty bin itself; ask us to confirm the contents if they are going too.
Furniture and other larger items
Add the actual larger item alongside your bags and boxes, such as a sofa, chair or mattress. It has its own price and preparation. Keep construction materials and items needing special handling out of ordinary household bags.

The hauler runs a bulky item and e-waste pickup for household items that do not fit a cart but can be lifted by two people, with a maximum of five items per pickup and one free pickup each calendar quarter for a single-family home.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. One free bulky item pickup per calendar quarter for a single-family home under the city franchise, up to five household items per pickup. Multi-family properties receive free pickups each year equal to the number of units, and additional pickups carry an extra charge.
When & how
Call the hauler to schedule, up to seven days before the regular service day and no later than noon the day before, and describe the items that will be set out.
Get it ready
Set the items where the hauler directs on the service day and keep them where two people can lift them. Loose trash is not picked up, and automobile bodies and parts, spas, gazebos, wood, construction waste, hazardous waste and anything that cannot be handled safely by two people are refused.
Furniture is one of the hauler's named bulky item examples, so a couch leaves on the bulky pickup rather than in a cart as long as two people can lift it.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Furniture counts toward the one free bulky item pickup per calendar quarter for a single-family home, up to five household items per pickup, with an extra charge for additional pickups.
When & how
Book the pickup with the hauler up to seven days before the service day and no later than noon the day before, then set the piece out where the hauler directs.
Get it ready
Keep furniture out of the carts, which do not take bulky items, and keep lawn furniture out of them as well because it is on the container exclusion list. A piece that two people cannot lift safely is not collected on this route.
Appliances and water heaters are named bulky item examples, and the hauler's container rules state plainly that appliances are not cart material.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. An appliance counts toward the one free bulky item pickup per calendar quarter for a single-family home, up to five household items per pickup, with an extra charge for additional pickups.
When & how
Schedule the bulky pickup with the hauler rather than putting the appliance in a cart.
Get it ready
Keep the appliance out of every cart and out of the organics and recycling streams, and keep it light enough and shaped so two people can lift it safely. The published guide states no separate refrigerant rule, so ask the hauler about a unit that holds refrigerant when you book.
Call the hauler up to seven days before the service day and no later than noon the day before, and describe the items that will be set out. A pickup takes up to five household items, the first one each quarter is free for a single-family home, items have to be liftable by two people, and loose trash is not picked up.
Appliances, construction material, dirt, sand, stone and concrete, lawn furniture, tires, bulky items and hazardous waste are all excluded from the carts. Hazardous and universal waste cannot go in a cart, down a drain or on the curb, and must go through the county hazardous waste program instead.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.
