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.

The furniture goes outside. We take it from there.

Your place. One easy pickup plan.
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.

Furniture is one of the two item types the free curbside bulky collection takes, and each collection lets a household set out two such items or up to twelve 32-gallon bags of bagged, boxed or bundled material.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Two free curbside bulky item collections per calendar year for Gilroy residential customers with cart service, either as two items such as furniture or as up to twelve 32-gallon bags of bagged, boxed or bundled garbage.
When & how
Book the collection at 408.842.3358 and leave the furniture at the curb by 6 a.m. on the appointment day. Cancel at least one business day ahead if the plan changes, and note that unused collections do not carry into the next year.
Get it ready
Keep every piece under six feet long, under 200 pounds and light enough for one person to handle, because the crew is not required to take anything larger. Keep liquids, dirt, rock, concrete, asphalt, tires, treated wood, construction debris, large mirrors and large glass objects out of the load, since the programme refuses each of them.
Each free bulky collection is bags or items, never a mix
Book the collection at 408.842.3358 and choose one option. Option one is up to twelve 32-gallon bags of garbage, all bagged, boxed or bundled with nothing loose, which is about two cubic yards or a pile three feet by six feet by three feet. Option two is two items such as appliances, furniture or electronic waste, with a mattress and box spring set counting as one item, and each item has to be under six feet long, under 200 pounds and manageable by one person.
Curbside by 6 a.m. and cancel a day ahead or lose the pickup
Bulky items have to be at the curb by 6 a.m. on the scheduled collection day, and a household that is not out before the truck arrives forfeits that free collection. A cancellation has to reach customer service at least one business day before the appointment, unused collections do not roll over into the next calendar year, the account must be current rather than past due, and the programme covers residential customers inside the city of Gilroy, with multi-family properties arranging collections through the owner or manager.
Food scraps and yard trimmings go in the green organics cart
Organics, recycling and garbage carts are all collected weekly. Food scraps, food-soiled paper such as greasy pizza boxes, napkins and uncoated paper plates, and yard trimmings such as leaves, grass clippings and branches go in the 96-gallon green organics cart, with paper rather than plastic used to collect food scraps, and oleander, poison oak and palm trees are not accepted in that cart.
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.
