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.

Furniture is on the county's bulky item list, which names couches, chairs, tables and dressers and collects them for a fee rather than in the weekly garbage cart.
City cost & eligibility
From $115 for minimum for a general special collection, with $258.80 per truckload, assessed by staff after an on-site look at the pile. DeKalb County residential accounts, and the county names Decatur among the cities it serves. The county states that bulky items require a fee and that the amount is determined by an on-site assessment, so confirm the charge for the items and the address when the request is submitted.
When & how
Place the furniture at the curb first, without blocking access, mailboxes, flower beds, utilities or drainage, then submit the request online as the county recommends, by email to solidwaste@dekalbcountyga.gov with the address, item description and photos, or in person at 3720 Leroy Scott Drive in Decatur on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep the pile at the curb where staff can assess it, and pay any assessed fee before the collection happens. Hazardous material, concrete products, Bagster bags, liquids and tires are not accepted in the bulky programme.
Weekly collection runs once a week for all three streams
DeKalb County collects garbage, recycling and yard trimmings once a week on the same day for Decatur addresses. Containers go out after 7 p.m. the night before collection, have to be curbside by 7 a.m. on the collection day, and come back in within 24 hours of service. Collection schedules change during county-observed holidays and service can be suspended in bad weather, and the county asks residents to check the holiday schedule and the service status notices before reporting a missed pickup.
Bulky items are requested, assessed and paid before collection
Bulky items do not go out with the regular carts. The county lists furniture, mattresses and box springs, bathroom fixtures and appliances as fee required bulky items, and construction material, fencing, decking, tree parts, commingled piles, contractor waste and heavy cardboard as prepaid special collections. The sequence matters: the pile goes to the curb first, then the request is submitted online, by email to solidwaste@dekalbcountyga.gov with photos, or in person at 3720 Leroy Scott Drive, staff assess the pile and leave an assessment form, and the fee is paid before collection.
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.

Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Decatur.
How much does couch removal cost in Decatur?+
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 does a couch leave a Decatur home?+
