A few pieces, one pickup

Your room has changed. The old furniture can go.

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?

Choose each piece

A table and four chairs are five items.

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.

Ready for pickup

The furniture goes outside. We take it from there.

Dropcurb handles loading and haul-away from an accessible outdoor spot. A little preparation makes it clear which pieces are going and how to reach them.

Book before moving items outside, then follow the readiness instructions in your confirmation. Contact us before booking if your building only allows a short pickup window; the booking is for a day, not an exact arrival time.

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.

Text us about your setup
  1. Choose what leaves and what stays.

    Count the furniture you want removed and empty drawers, shelves and cabinets. Add any other items to the booking instead of leaving an unlisted pile beside the furniture.

  2. Arrange the move outside.

    You handle indoor carrying and any disassembly needed to get the furniture through your home. Plan for doorways, interior stairs and building access before pickup day.

  3. Show exactly what goes.

    Use a permitted outdoor spot with a clear route to the furniture. Add a location photo and access notes. Keep the pickup items separate from furniture and belongings that are staying.

Couches and household furniture

Special rules apply

Furniture is named in the city's list of waste that cannot go in any cart, and no furniture pickup or drop-off is published, so the route has to be confirmed with the Refuse Division.

City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no furniture charge because it publishes no furniture route. Call the Refuse Division at 782-7513 to ask how furniture is handled and what it costs, or arrange a private hauler.
When & how
No furniture collection day is published. Confirm the route before the piece is moved, and keep furniture out of the carts meanwhile.
Get it ready
Keep the piece off the street and out of the carts, because furniture is on the city's not-allowed list for cart collection.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Carts out by 6 a.m. and clear of obstructions

Place the cart near the corner of the driveway behind the curb, at least three to five feet from a fence, mailbox, basketball hoop or another container, and make sure cars are parked three to five feet away so the truck can reach it. Keep the lid closed with all material inside, and check the zone map because each cart has its own day.

Solid waste and refuse collection zones, cart rules and excluded material

What the city will not collect in any cart

Dirt, sod, rock, concrete, large appliances, furniture, hot ashes, flammable materials, oil, gasoline, paint and construction debris are all excluded from the carts, and toxic or hazardous waste is never accepted in a curbside container. The blue can page adds used oil and filters, poisons, solvents, garden chemicals, batteries, fluorescent tubes and computer monitors and television sets to that list.

For your Dropcurb pickup

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.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Self haul in Porterville means the two city drop-offs at the Corporation Yard on North Prospect Street. The recycling drop-off center there is open around the clock for residential recyclables that match the blue can programme, and it refuses commercial loads. On the third Saturday of each month between 8 a.m. and noon the same yard hosts the household hazardous waste collection, which takes electronic waste, used motor oil and filters, antifreeze, automotive batteries, latex paints, household batteries and fluorescent lamps, and alongside it the free mattress and box spring site run with the Mattress Recycling Council for Porterville and Tulare County residents. Nothing else has a published city drop-off: the carts refuse large appliances, furniture and construction debris, and the city publishes no curbside bulky pickup, so confirm the current option with the Refuse Division at 782-7513 or arrange a private hauler before moving a large item.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Furniture removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Porterville.

How much does furniture removal cost in Porterville?

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 Porterville?

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.

Where does furniture go in Porterville?

Furniture is on the city's list of waste that cannot go in the carts, and Porterville publishes no furniture pickup or drop-off, so the current option has to come from the Refuse Division at 782-7513. The recycling drop-off center on North Prospect Street takes recyclables only, so a couch cannot go there either.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Porterville?

The city collects it. The Public Works Field Services Division runs the refuse routes and the recycling programmes, and the Refuse Division answers collection questions at 782-7513. Residential refuse is billed on the city utility account at the rate the finance department publishes for the current year.Official guidance

How do large items leave a Porterville home?

The city publishes no curbside bulky item pickup, and the cart rules exclude large appliances, furniture and construction debris, so a large item has no standing route. Call the Refuse Division at 782-7513 to ask about the specific item, and use the monthly Corporation Yard collection for electronic waste and household chemicals and the free mattress site for mattresses and box springs.Official guidance
