A loveseat, a sleeper and a sectional can look similar in a photo. Match the shape and features so your online price covers what is actually going.
This example has three structural sections. The cushions do not add to the count.
A straight sofa or loveseat
Choose Standard sofa for fixed seats with no pull-out bed or reclining mechanism. One whole sofa is one item.
A sectional
Count its structural sections, not the loose cushions. Choose the piece count, then check for a sleeper or reclining feature. One sectional booking covers the configuration you select.
A pull-out bed or reclining seats
Choose Sleeper sofa or Reclining sofa for those mechanisms. A single reclining chair has its own Recliner choice. All sofa types also includes futons and sofas with a chaise.

Hawthorne residents have two self haul routes worth knowing. Electronic waste and household batteries ride free on top of the recycling cart on the regular collection day, with batteries bagged. Hazardous material, including paint, pesticides and light bulbs, is refused there and goes instead to the Hyperion Treatment Plant at 7660 W. Imperial Highway, Gate B, in Playa del Rey, which takes household hazardous and electronic waste free of charge on Saturdays and Sundays from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm with a limit of 15 gallons or 125 pounds per vehicle. The City also points to year round options: unused paint through PaintCare, used motor oil through the CalRecycle locator, household batteries through the state battery program and participating libraries, sharps and pharmaceuticals through the stewardship mail back kits, and electronics through Goodwill Southern California, with (888) CLEAN-LA or CleanLA.com for anything else.

Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Hawthorne.
How much does couch removal cost in Hawthorne?+
A standard sofa is $79 as the first item and $29 additional. Sectionals, sleepers and reclining sofas have their own choices. Select everything that is going to see the combined price before booking. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; any applicable sales tax appears before payment.
Can you pick up my couch today?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the couch outside and accessible according to your confirmation. We send pickup updates and photos when it is done; the booking is for a day rather than an exact arrival time.
How do I book a sectional for removal?+
Open Sectional in the sofa choices, count its structural sections, and select any sleeper or reclining feature. Count the sections with their own bases, not loose cushions. The matching catalog choice covers one complete sectional of that configuration. Text a photo before booking if you are unsure.
Will you carry my couch out of my apartment?+
Dropcurb starts outside. Arrange for the sofa to be moved through the apartment and down interior stairs before pickup. We load and haul it away from an accessible outdoor spot. Arrange any dismantling needed to get it outside beforehand.
Do I need to wait at home for couch pickup?+
You do not need to be home when your booked sofa is outside and accessible. Add photos and pickup-location notes to your order so the right pieces are easy to identify. We send updates and completion photos. Confirm any building access restrictions with us before booking.
How much bulky waste can a household set out?+
The City's program flyer states that each residential customer and each multifamily building over five units is entitled to up to twenty total bulky items per calendar year free, including furniture, trash and electronic waste, scheduled in groups of no more than five.
