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.
Add each furniture item and its quantity. See the combined price before you pay, with loading, transportation and disposal included.
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.

Items too large to fit in a barrel, including furniture, mattresses and appliances, are collected at the curb three times a year at no charge.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Three free curbside large or bulky item collections per household each year. A fourth or later collection in the year is billed from the published rate schedule, which sets a service charge for the pickup and adds a per item charge for each item collected.
When & how
Call Burrtec customer service at 909-822-9739 to book the collection, and set the items at the curb on the confirmed day. The City publishes 909-822-6531 for a bulky item pickup as well.
Get it ready
An item qualifies when it is too large to fit in the trash barrel, which is the definition both the City and the hauler use. Keep the pile out of the three barrels, keep it clear of the recycling and green waste routes, and leave paint, oil, batteries, electronics and garden chemicals out of it, because those are household hazardous material rather than large items.
Call Burrtec to arrange a large or bulky item collection and put the items at the curb on the confirmed day. A household gets three of those collections a year at no charge, and a collection beyond the three is billed from the published rate schedule with a service charge and a per item charge.
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.
Burrtec Waste Industries, under contract with the City of Fontana
Free large or bulky item collection
A household with furniture, a mattress, an appliance, a stump or another item too large for the barrel.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Three free curbside collections per household each year, for items too large to fit in a trash barrel.
Arrange it
Call Burrtec at 909-822-9739 and ask for a large or bulky item pickup, or use 909-822-6531, which the City publishes for an appliance pickup, then set the items at the curb on the confirmed day.

Burrtec Waste Industries, under contract with the City of Fontana
Large item collection beyond the three free each year
A household that has already used its three free collections and still has a large item to clear.
Cost & conditions
From $44.26 for the published 2026 service charge for a large or bulky item pickup on the Fontana service rate schedule, with a separate published per item charge added for each item collected. The fourth and later large or bulky item collections by a household in a year, since the City provides the first three at no charge.
Arrange it
Book the collection with Burrtec and confirm the item count and the amount before the items go to the curb.
The pickup carries a service charge and each item carries its own charge on top, so the total depends on how many items go out. Confirm the count with the hauler when booking.

A few things worth knowing.
Furniture removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Fontana.
How much does furniture removal cost in Fontana?+
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 Fontana?+
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.
What counts as a large or bulky item in Fontana?+
Anything too large to fit in the trash barrel. The City names stumps and appliances as examples, and Burrtec describes the same collection as covering furniture, mattresses and appliances. Each household gets three of those collections a year at no charge.Official guidance
How do I book a large item collection?+
Call Burrtec and ask for a large or bulky item pickup. The City publishes 909-822-9739 as the hauler's Fontana number and 909-822-6531 for an appliance or bulky item pickup, and the items go to the curb on the day the hauler confirms.Official guidance
How many free large item collections does a household get?+
Three per year at no charge under the City's residential program. A collection beyond the three is billed from the published rate schedule, which sets a service charge for the pickup and adds a per item charge for every item collected.Official guidance
Will Fontana take a treadmill or other exercise machine?+
Exercise equipment is not named in the City's examples or in the hauler's description of what the large item collection covers, so describe the machine when you call Burrtec and let the hauler confirm it before the machine goes to the curb.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Fontana?+
Burrtec Waste Industries, under contract with the City. The City's trash and recycling services page prints the hauler's Fontana office at 9820 Cherry Avenue and its number as 909-822-9739, and households get weekly trash, recycling and green waste collection on the day assigned to the address.Official guidance
Where do paint, motor oil, batteries and other hazardous items go?+
To the City's household hazardous waste facility at 16454 Orange Way, open Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 12 noon.

Can I pick up free household products from the City?+
Yes. The Reuse Center at the household hazardous waste facility sorts usable products that residents bring in and offers them to City of Fontana residents at no charge, including automotive fluids, fertilizers, household cleaners and polishes, pesticides, pool chemicals and water-based paints. It is limited to one visit per household per calendar month, with a California identification card showing a Fontana address.Official guidance
What help is there for a senior or disabled resident?+
The City provides complimentary pull-out or back-yard service for senior and disabled residents, so the barrels do not have to be moved to the curb, and it offers reduced rates to those residents as well. Pull-out and back-yard service is otherwise a paid option on the service rate schedule, so confirm the eligibility when the service is set up.Official guidance
