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.

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.
