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.

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.
Couches, sleeper couches, chairs, desks, tables and shelves are named bulky items, and the yearly donation pickup also takes furniture.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Included in the three free bulky item pickups a calendar year, each covering up to ten large items, for a residential customer whose items a two-person crew can handle. The yearly reusable donation pickup is also free and takes furniture such as sofas, tables, chairs and dressers.
When & how
Book the bulky pickup with CR&R for your regular collection day, or book the year's donation pickup when the piece is still good enough to resell.
Get it ready
Keep the pieces inside the ten item limit and manageable for a two-person crew, and keep glassware, mattresses, automotive parts and hazardous waste out of a donation pile because those are refused.
Keep each bulky pickup to ten large items a two-person crew can handle
A bulky pickup may include up to ten large items, and every item has to be something a two-person crew can handle and transport. Items that cannot fit in the carts are the ones that qualify, and residents of an HOA or a community with shared trash enclosures book through the HOA or property manager instead.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Lake Forest.
How much does couch removal cost in Lake Forest?+
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 many furniture pieces can a Lake Forest household put out?+
Up to ten large items in each of the three free bulky pickups a calendar year, provided a two-person crew can handle them. Couches, sleeper couches, chairs, desks, tables and shelves are named bulky items, and one free reusable donation pickup a year also takes furniture that Goodwill can resell.Official guidance
Who collects trash and bulky items in Lake Forest?+
CR&R Environmental Services is the city's franchised hauler, with customer service at (949) 520-6005 and an online scheduling service for bulky items. A residential customer gets three free bulky pickups a calendar year of up to ten large items each, and the monthly cart rate depends on the size of the trash cart.Official guidance
