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.

The furniture goes outside. We take it from there.

The city does not publish a furniture list, so a couch rides on the one bulky item rule it does publish: the sanitation company services three bulk items on your service day, and each item has to weigh less than 50 pounds. A couch that meets both limits goes out with the regular service. Anything heavier, or a fourth piece in the same week, has to wait for the next week or go to the Saturday drop-off at 560 Macon Street.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes one monthly sanitation rate and no separate furniture or bulk item rate, so treat the curbside route as covered until you confirm it. Call the City of McDonough at 770-957-3915 or Public Works at 678-782-6272 and ask whether the piece fits the service day bulk pickup.
When & how
Put the piece out on the service day the city prints on the schedule you were given when the water service started, the same day the carts are collected. The city sets 6 a.m. on the pickup day as the curbside deadline for carts, so have the piece at the curb by then. If the piece will not go out that morning, the city drop-off runs from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the first and third Saturday of each month.
Get it ready
Keep the piece out of the carts, because the sanitation company will not service anything outside the 90-gallon household cart and the 65-gallon recycling cart. Keep construction, remodeling and landscaping material out of the load, along with dirt, concrete, carpet and padding, because the city will not collect those. Keep sidewalks and the cart path clear for the truck.
Three bulk items go out on your service day, under the weight limit
McDonough keeps the large item decision simple. The sanitation company services three bulk items on your service day, and each one has to weigh less than 50 pounds, so the count and the weight are the two things to check before anything goes to the curb. The household stream rides in the 90-gallon cart and the recycling stream in the 65-gallon cart, and the hauler will not service anything outside those carts. Carts go out by 6 a.m. on the pickup day, and the city schedule you were given when the water service started shows which day that is.
The city drop-off runs the first and third Saturday of the month
When the service day will not take the load, McDonough opens its own drop-off at 560 Macon Street, the site the city calls the old Mercer Building. It runs on the first and third Saturday of every month from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., closes for lunch from 11:45 a.m. to 1:15 p.m., and is for City of McDonough residential customers only. The calendar notes that the site is closed on the Saturdays the city highlights, that city hall closes for listed holidays, and that the city may close the drop-off at any time during its published days or hours.
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.
City of McDonough Public Works with Republic Services, and Henry County for hard-to-recycle items
Use the city service day for up to three bulk items
A McDonough household inside the city limits with a couch, a mattress, an appliance, an exercise machine or a small pile of clutter that can be brought under the published weight limit.
Cost & conditions
$26.14 for monthly residential sanitation rate billed on the city water bill, with no separate bulk item rate published. City of McDonough residential customers inside the city limits, where the city requires sanitation service and provides the 90-gallon household cart and the 65-gallon recycling cart.
Arrange it
Set the pieces out on the service day printed on the schedule you were given when the water service started, with carts and items at the curb by 6 a.m. on the pickup day. The city services three bulk items that day and does not publish an appointment step for ordinary furniture, mattress or appliance pieces.
Each bulk item has to weigh less than 50 pounds, and the hauler will not service anything outside the two supplied carts. The city does not name furniture, mattresses, appliances or exercise equipment in either what it takes or what it refuses, so an unusual or heavier piece has to be confirmed rather than assumed. Construction, remodeling, landscaping, dirt, concrete, carpet and padding are refused.
City drop-off for trash and large items on the first and third Saturday of the month
560 Macon Street bulk item drop-off
560 Macon Street, McDonough (the site the city calls the old Mercer Building)
The city describes this as a trash and large item drop-off for its own residential customers and publishes no item level list for the site, so what a particular piece has to be checked on arrival or by phone. It is the published city alternative for material that does not go out on the service day.
City of McDonough residential customers only. The city opens the site on the first and third Saturday of each month and closes it for lunch, closes it on the Saturdays its calendar highlights, and states that it may close the drop-off at any time during the published days or hours.
First and third Saturday of each month from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., closed for lunch from 11:45 a.m. to 1:15 p.m.
The city publishes no receipt fee for the drop-off, so confirm the charge with the City of McDonough at 770-957-3915 before loading.
Local donation site for usable furniture and housewares
Habitat for Humanity ReStore
1465 Highway 20 West, McDonough
Furniture, clothing and other housewares in good condition. Henry County lists the store among the local places to donate furniture, clothing and housewares rather than sending them for disposal.
The county says to call beforehand to ask which items are accepted, and its listing does not state whether the store takes mattresses, so a mattress should not be taken here without checking first. The listing also does not state whether a pickup is available.
The county listing publishes the address and phone number but no hours, so call 678-782-5111 before a trip.
The county publishes no fee for donations at this site and advises calling ahead, so confirm acceptance and any conditions at 678-782-5111 before loading furniture.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Furniture removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in McDonough.
How much does furniture removal cost in McDonough?+
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 McDonough?+
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.
Can a couch go out with the trash in McDonough?+
Yes, if it fits the city's bulky item rule. McDonough services three bulk items on your service day and each item has to weigh less than 50 pounds, and the city does not publish a separate furniture list. A couch that meets those limits goes out with the regular pickup, and anything heavier or beyond the three item count waits for the next week or goes to the city drop-off at 560 Macon Street on the first and third Saturday of the month from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.Official guidance
Who collects trash in McDonough?+

The city can be reached at 770-957-3915 and Public Works at 678-782-6272. Henry County handles the hard-to-recycle route instead and does no curbside collection of its own.Official guidance
How many bulk items will the McDonough hauler take?+
Three. The city says three bulk items are serviced by the sanitation company on your service day, and each bulk item has to weigh less than 50 pounds. Carts and items go to the curb by 6 a.m. on the pickup day, and a missed pickup caused by the hauler is rescheduled for the following Friday only.
