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.

Furniture is named on the city's bulky waste list, so a couch or a sofa leaves on one of the three free pickups a household may book each calendar year. Each pickup covers a pile of up to five cubic yards and has to be scheduled in advance for the regular trash day, and the city's drop-off center refuses furniture, so the curbside pickup is the city route.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free to Elk Grove residents three times a calendar year as part of the residential service, with a pile of up to five cubic yards per appointment, and the pickup booked in advance with Republic Services at (916) 635-2500.
When & how
Call Republic Services at (916) 635-2500 to book the appointment on your regular trash day, then put the pile out no more than 24 hours before that day.
Get it ready
Keep the pile within the maximum size of 7 by 6 by 4 feet, put it in front of the residence on the same side of the street, and keep commercial waste, dirt, rocks, bricks, tree stumps, liquids, household garbage, steel pipes, batteries and heavy car parts out of it.
A bulky pile goes out on the appointment day, not before
The pile goes in front of the residence on the same side of the street, no more than 24 hours before the appointment, because the city warns that setting material out sooner can bring a citation for illegal dumping and that this includes material strangers add to the pile. The maximum is 7 by 6 by 4 feet, or five cubic yards, and a resident who expects more should say so when booking so the extra can be priced instead of left behind.
The large recyclables drop-off refuses business and contractor waste, stumps wider than a foot, treated wood such as railroad ties, telephone poles, fence posts and decking, furniture of any kind, pallets, plastics, garden supplies and hoses, sod, ceramic tile, items with cloth or fabric, carpet, mattresses, expanded polystyrene and glass or mirrors. The door-to-door hazardous waste pickup refuses household garbage and recyclables, computers, televisions and other electronics, asbestos, ammunition and explosives, radioactive material, compressed gas cylinders and containers larger than five gallons.
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.

Book a free bulky waste pickup
A single-family home or a multiplex of four units or fewer with a couch, an appliance, a television within the size limits, or a pile of junk that will not fit the cart.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Three appointments a calendar year at no charge as part of the residential service, each covering up to five cubic yards; an on-call pickup beyond the three, or material above the pile limit, is charged on the city fee schedule.
Arrange it
Call Republic Services at (916) 635-2500 to book the appointment for your regular trash day, flag any television or computer monitor, and put the pile out no more than 24 hours ahead.
Commercial waste, dirt, rocks, bricks, tree stumps, treated lumber outside the size limits, liquids, toxic material, household garbage, steel pipes, batteries and heavy car parts are refused, and the city's drop-off center refuses furniture and mattresses, so those items belong with the pickup.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Furniture removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Elk Grove.
How much does furniture removal cost in Elk Grove?+
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 Elk Grove?+
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.
