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.

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.

Home furnishings are named as bulky items, so a couch goes out on the one free bulky pickup a single-family home gets each year, and anything past that allowance goes to a Salinas Valley Recycles facility.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. No charge for the one bulky pickup a year for a single-family home, covering two large items, ten thirty-two gallon bags, or the equivalent of up to two cubic yards. Additional pickups incur a fee, and a self-hauled load is charged on the published fee schedule.
When & how
Call Republic Services of Salinas at (831) 775-3840 to schedule the yearly pickup, or take the piece to a Salinas Valley Recycles facility during its open hours.
Get it ready
Put the items in the street against the curb, away from cars, trees, parked cars and overhead wires, and keep loose or bagged trash, carpet, construction materials, wood, paint, batteries, chemicals and hazardous waste out of the free pickup, because those are refused.
Put bulky items in the street against the curb, and only on a scheduled day
The Salinas bulky pickup requires items to be placed in the street against the curb and away from cars, trees, parked cars and overhead wires. Keep loose or bagged trash, carpet, construction materials, wood, paint, batteries, chemicals and hazardous waste out of the load, because the free pickup refuses them, and never leave a large item at the curb on a day when no collection is scheduled.
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.

How much does furniture removal cost in Salinas?+
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.

Can you take several different furniture items in one pickup?+

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.
