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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Chicago.
How much does couch removal cost in Chicago?+
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.
Does a Chicago apartment building use the city route for a couch?
City collection generally serves residential buildings with four or fewer units. Buildings with five or more units arrange private collection; ask the property manager about the sofa before moving it outside.
When should a couch go beside Chicago garbage carts?
The 44th Ward directs oversized ordinary trash beside the cart the night before or morning of regular collection. Confirm your couch with your own ward, and keep the alley and neighbors clear.
No. ReStore excludes sleeper sofas. It may approve clean ordinary sofas and sectionals without tears, stains or pet hair; staff can decline donations based on condition or stock.
ReStore Chicago North receives approved donations at 6040 N. Pulaski Road, Wednesday through Sunday from 11am to 5:30pm. Confirm that staff will accept the couch before transporting it.
JUNK Relief advertises indoor sofa removal and can dismantle a couch where necessary. Its crew assesses the couch and access route onsite before quoting; untreated infestations are excluded.
