Choose each piece

A table and four chairs are five items.

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.

Ready for pickup

The furniture goes outside. We take it from there.

Dropcurb handles loading and haul-away from an accessible outdoor spot. A little preparation makes it clear which pieces are going and how to reach them.

Book before moving items outside, then follow the readiness instructions in your confirmation. Contact us before booking if your building only allows a short pickup window; the booking is for a day, not an exact arrival time.

Your place. One easy pickup plan.

Text us about your setup
  1. Choose what leaves and what stays.

    Count the furniture you want removed and empty drawers, shelves and cabinets. Add any other items to the booking instead of leaving an unlisted pile beside the furniture.

  2. Arrange the move outside.

    You handle indoor carrying and any disassembly needed to get the furniture through your home. Plan for doorways, interior stairs and building access before pickup day.

  3. Show exactly what goes.

    Use a permitted outdoor spot with a clear route to the furniture. Add a location photo and access notes. Keep the pickup items separate from furniture and belongings that are staying.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Bloomington runs the Solid Waste Program through Public Works: garbage weekly, recycling every other week, and leaves, trimmings, brush and bulk each every other week on the alternating weeks, with carts out no earlier than 2 p.m. the day before and no later than 6 a.m. on the pickup day. The monthly cart fee includes the first loader bucket of bulk at about 2.5 cubic yards, the fall leaf pickup and use of the Citizen Convenience Center at 402 S. East Street, where leaves, brush, garden trimmings, appliances and empty propane tanks can be dropped while it is open from April through December. Appliances are also collected curbside by an outside company that charges for refrigerant removal, concrete, rock, shingles and brick have to be arranged with Public Works for a fee because the convenience center no longer takes them, electronics go to the Town of Normal's McLean County drop-off, and household hazardous waste is not accepted curbside or at the drop-off and runs through Ecology Action Center events.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Furniture removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Bloomington.

How much does furniture removal cost in Bloomington?

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 Bloomington?

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.

Does Bloomington collect furniture at the curb?

Yes. Bulk waste is collected curbside every other week, alternating with recycling, and it includes furniture, household clean-out items other than food, and basement, interior and exterior remodeling debris. The first loader bucket of about 2.5 cubic yards is included in the monthly cart fee and extra buckets in the same week are charged per bucket.Official guidance
