One dresser or a few pieces from different rooms, gone from the curb. Choose what goes, see the exact total and book by 2pm for same-day pickup. You don’t need to be home.
The desk you no longer use. The dresser that doesn’t fit the new layout. The chairs left over after a move. Choose the pieces you’re done with and give them a pickup day, without arranging a quote visit.
Different pieces. One clear total.

Ready to have them gone?
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, or choose a future date at checkout. You arrange the move outside before pickup.
Know when they’ve been collected.
Get a text when your hauler is on the way and photos when the pickup is done. With everything outside and accessible, you don’t need to stay home.
You don’t need to guess how much space your furniture fills in a truck. Match each piece to the catalog, then add its quantity. Your total updates as you go.
Tables and chairs
Choose the table, then add each chair separately. Coffee tables, side tables and dining tables have their own options. A large or substantially heavy table has a different choice.
Dressers and mirrors
Match the dresser’s overall size. Add a separate dresser mirror as its own item if it is leaving too. Empty drawers and keep the belongings you want before moving the dresser outside.
Desks and bookshelves
Choose by construction, not height alone. A basic desk is different from a heavy desk with a substantial body. A tall, lightweight bookcase can still be a standard bookshelf. Empty it first.

A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.

A couch leaves on the curbside bulky pickup. The hauler's Chico brochure lists furniture among the individual large items an account can put out, and the county landfill takes furniture as municipal solid waste for a household that hauls its own load.
City cost & eligibility
The bulky allowance is part of the residential rate rather than a free extra. The city rate schedule effective July 1, 2026 prices an additional bulky collection at $73.81 for the first cubic yard and $20.13 for each further cubic yard on the same trip, so confirm what remains of the account's two pickups a year when the pickup is booked.
When & how
Call Waste Management at (530) 893-4777 at least 48 hours before the usual collection day and name the pieces when the appointment is made. Collection is not run on New Year's Day, Independence Day, Thanksgiving or Christmas.
Get it ready
Have the piece curbside by 5 a.m. on the collection day. A bulky pickup combines four cubic yards of loose material with three individual large items, so keep the loose pile inside that limit and leave tires, construction debris, medical waste and household hazardous waste out of it.
A bulky pickup is booked by phone and confirmed by the allowance
Waste Management runs the city's bulky collection, so the route is a phone call rather than an online request: (530) 893-4777, at least 48 hours before the usual collection day, with the items named when the appointment is made. Everything has to be curbside by 5 a.m. on the collection day. The account's annual allowance is what decides whether the pickup is included or billed, and the city rate schedule effective July 1, 2026 prices further collections, further cubic yards and an item containing Freon separately.
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.
Waste Management under the City of Chico residential franchise, with Butte County solid waste facilities and the Butte Regional Household Hazardous Waste Facility
Book the curbside bulky pickup
A household inside the city limits with an active residential account and a couch, mattress, appliance, television or other large item that will not fit in a cart.
Cost & conditions
The hauler's Chico brochure gives each residential account up to two bulky pickups a year as part of the monthly rate, and the city rate schedule effective July 1, 2026 prices a further collection at $73.81 for the first cubic yard with $20.13 per further cubic yard and $59.06 for an item containing Freon. Confirm what remains of the allowance when the pickup is booked.
Arrange it
Call Waste Management at (530) 893-4777 at least 48 hours before the usual collection day, name the items, and have everything curbside by 5 a.m.
Up to two pickups a year per account, each with four cubic yards of loose material and three individual large items, and tires, construction debris, medical waste and household hazardous waste are refused.
A household with furniture or household goods that are still usable and worth passing on.
Cost & conditions
A donation carries no disposal charge, but the store decides what it can take and when, so confirm the item and the drop-off hours before loading the vehicle.
Arrange it
Take the item to a store on the county's reuse list, such as The Arc Store at 2030 Park Avenue or the Salvation Army Thrift Stores at 700 Broadway.
The county lists these stores for household items rather than for every material, so a stained mattress, a broken appliance or a television needs another route.
County landfill for household loads, furniture, carpet and construction material
Neal Road Recycling and Waste Facility
1023 Neal Road, Paradise, CA 95969
The county's dumping guidelines list municipal solid waste that includes furniture, carpet, textiles, glass, porcelain and ceramics, yard trimmings, wood waste, sheetrock and drywall, and dirt, concrete, asphalt, construction rebar and rocks with recycling on site, plus non-asbestos roofing and shingles. Tires are taken as a special waste, and car batteries, refrigerators and fluorescent tubes are accepted as hazardous waste with the scale house explaining the procedure. The county's materials directory also names this site for mattresses, box springs, major appliances, unpainted wood and carpet.
Liquid paints including latex and other water-based paint, freon gas, air-conditioning refrigerant, antifreeze, used motor oil and lubricating oil, gasoline, compressed gases, pool chemicals, pesticides, ammunition, explosives, radioactive material and friable asbestos are refused. Payment is cash, local checks or credit cards only, with no debit cards and no third-party checks, and the site cannot take fire debris that has not been screened for hazardous waste, so ask at the scale house when a load is unusual.
Every day from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., closed on Easter, the Fourth of July, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New Year's Day, with Christmas Eve open from 7 a.m. to noon.
The county publishes a fee schedule for the facility rather than rates on the page, and the charge depends on the material and the weight of the load, so confirm the amount at the scale before a first trip.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Furniture removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Chico.
How much does furniture removal cost in Chico?+
Choose the type and size of each piece to see its price. For example, a medium dresser is $79 as the first item or $29 as an additional item. Your total starts with the highest first-item price in your selection, then uses the additional-item price for every other item. Review the complete total and any applicable tax before payment.
Can I get same-day furniture pickup in Chico?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup and choose from the dates shown at checkout. Arrange to have the furniture outside according to your confirmation. You receive a text when your hauler is on the way and photos after collection.
Will you remove furniture from inside my apartment?+
Dropcurb starts outside. You arrange indoor carrying, including any interior stairs or elevator trip. We load and take away the furniture from an accessible outdoor location. Check your building’s rules and plan the route out before booking.
Can you take several different furniture items in one pickup?+
Yes. Add each piece and its quantity to one booking. A dining table and four chairs are five items; a separate mirror is not included with a dresser. You can mix eligible items from different rooms and review their combined total before paying.
Do I need to take furniture apart before pickup?+
You arrange any disassembly needed to move the furniture out of your home and into an accessible outdoor pickup spot. Dropcurb does not provide indoor disassembly or carrying. If you are unsure which catalog choice matches a dismantled or unusual piece, send a photo and ask before booking.
How does a couch get collected in Chico?+
A couch goes out on the curbside bulky pickup that Waste Management runs under the city franchise. The hauler's Chico service brochure lists furniture among the individual large items a residential account can set out, and a pickup combines loose material up to four cubic yards with three such items. Book it at least 48 hours ahead and have it curbside by 5 a.m. A household that would rather haul it can take furniture to the Neal Road facility, where the county accepts it as municipal solid waste.Official guidance
Who collects trash and bulky items in Chico?+
Waste Management collects residential garbage, recycling and green waste inside the city limits under the city franchise, and the city's environmental services line answers program questions at (530) 592-5541 or Recycle@chicoca.gov. Commercial collection was franchised to both Recology Butte and Colusa Counties and Waste Management in designated zones. County government runs the landfill and the household hazardous waste facility, which is why bulky, construction and hazardous questions cross between the city franchise and the county.Official guidance
How many bulky pickups does a Chico household get?+
The hauler's Chico service brochure gives each residential account up to two curbside bulky pickups a year, each one a combination of loose material up to four cubic yards and three individual large items such as a television, furniture or an appliance. The city rate schedule effective July 1, 2026 prices a further collection, further cubic yards and any item containing Freon separately, so confirm what remains on the account when you book at (530) 893-4777.Official guidance
When is the county landfill open?+
Neal Road Recycling and Waste Facility at 1023 Neal Road in Paradise is open every day from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. and closes on Easter, the Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day, with Christmas Eve open until noon. It takes cash, local checks and credit cards only, with no debit cards, and the county publishes its fee schedule separately, so confirm the rate for the load at the scale.Official guidance
