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.

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.
A bulky item or a tied bundle leaves on the regular collection day with one sticker on it, and the service is unlimited as long as every item carries a sticker.
City cost & eligibility
$2.75 for one City of Aurora waste sticker, required for each bulky item or bundle. Stickers cost 2.75 each and are sold at the listed vendors and at City Hall, 44 E. Downer Place. One sticker covers one bundle or one single item such as a chair, a table or a mattress, and material that will not fit in a cart is accepted without a volume cap as long as each item is stickered.
When & how
Set the item or bundle out on the regular collection day, and call Groot at 630-892-9294 with questions about how a piece should be prepared.
Get it ready
Tie bundles no larger than two feet in diameter, four feet in length and 50 pounds, with one sticker affixed to each bundle. Single items take one sticker each, and small amounts of construction debris and rolls of carpeting are accepted this way. A load too large to bag or bundle should be handled as a special pickup or in a temporary container arranged at least 24 hours ahead.
Chairs, tables and similar furniture are named as single bulky items that take one sticker each on the regular collection day.
City cost & eligibility
$2.75 for one City of Aurora waste sticker for a single furniture item. Stickers cost 2.75 each from the listed vendors or at City Hall, and one sticker covers one single item such as a chair or a table. The service is unlimited as long as each item carries a sticker.
When & how
Set the piece out on the regular collection day, which is the same day as trash, recycling and yard waste with a separate truck for the large items.
Get it ready
Affix one sticker to each item, keep the piece out of the carts, and bundle any loose carpeting or padding separately because rolls of carpet fall under the bundle rule with one sticker apiece. A piece that is too large to handle should be discussed with Groot as a special pickup.
Anything outside the cart needs a 2.75 sticker, and bulky material takes one sticker per item or bundle. Bundles are tied no larger than two feet in diameter, four feet in length and 50 pounds, single items such as a chair, a table or a mattress take one sticker each, and appliances must be scheduled ahead with Groot at 630-892-9294 and still carry one sticker.
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.

A few things worth knowing.
Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Aurora.
How much does couch removal cost in Aurora?+
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.
