The Recycling Park takes unupholstered furniture as part of its construction and demolition material, but an upholstered couch is not in that category, so it travels as general waste and is charged by weight at the gate. A couch can also go on a bulky item pickup arranged with the city.
City cost & eligibility
From $25 for for a general waste load of up to 300 pounds at the Santa Maria Regional Landfill on the fee schedule effective January 1, 2026, with a 55 dollar rate from 301 to 1,050 pounds and 105 dollars per ton above that. Santa Maria Regional Landfill customers. Upholstered furniture is not part of the recycling park's construction and demolition category, so it is priced as general waste by weight.
When & how
Drive the couch to the Santa Maria Regional Landfill at 2065 East Main Street, open Monday to Saturday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., or call 805-925-0951 extension 7270 about a bulky item pickup.
Get it ready
Keep the piece whole where you can, separate it from recyclable and organic material in the same vehicle because an unsorted load can be charged the hard to handle rate, and remember that the driver loads in the order the Recycling Park prints, with the heavier sorted material closest to the cab.
Load the vehicle in the order the Recycling Park asks for
The Santa Maria Regional Landfill at 2065 East Main Street is open Monday to Saturday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., and the Recycling Park sits ahead of the trash face so recyclable material can be sorted instead of buried. The city asks drivers to load in this order from the cab backwards: construction and demolition material, green waste, scrap metal, appliances, mattresses, tires, cardboard, electronic waste, organics, commingled recyclables and concrete last. State law requires recyclable and organic material to be separated from the trash before arrival, and an unsorted load can be charged the posted hard to handle rate.
A Santa Maria resident may bring up to five mattresses or box springs for free to the regional landfill, where they are recycled, but waterbeds, sofa beds, air mattresses, sleeping bags, pillows, cushions, loose bedding, blankets, sheets and loose mattress pads or toppers are excluded from the free programme and are charged as waste instead. Businesses are not eligible for the free mattress recycling.
The city publishes two lists of material the landfill will not bury. Recyclable material has to be sorted and taken to the Recycling Park, and it covers electronics, glass, construction and demolition debris including drywall, cement and asphalt, metals, organic waste, paper and cardboard, plastics, and the other group of whole tires, white goods and appliances, and mattresses. Hazardous material goes only to the household hazardous waste facility, and it covers automotive fluids, batteries, chemicals and cleaning products, compressed cylinders such as propane, helium and fire extinguisher tanks, fluorescent lights and mercury items, garden chemicals, paints, pool and hobby supplies, sharps and printer cartridges.
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 Santa Maria.
How much does couch removal cost in Santa Maria?+
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.
Where does a couch go in Santa Maria?+
