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.
Add each furniture item and its quantity. See the combined price before you pay, with loading, transportation and disposal included.
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 couch, chair, love seat or one section of a sectional is a bulk item in Oak Park, which means two pink refuse stickers and a place in the one bulk item collected each week. The Village's own example list covers sofas alongside bed frames, mattresses and bicycles.
City cost & eligibility
$8 for for the two pink refuse stickers that a bulk item requires at 4.00 each, with one bulk item collected each week and a 50 pound general guideline. Oak Park residential buildings of five or fewer units served by Lakeshore Recycling Systems, with stickers bought in advance from the listed sellers.
When & how
Put the item out with the rest of the refuse on the regular collection day, no later than 7 a.m., with both stickers attached, and call 844.633.3577 if the item needs special equipment.
Get it ready
Attach two pink stickers where the driver can see them, keep the piece under the 50 pound guideline where possible, and call the hauler before setting out anything that a driver could not lift by hand.
The Village's hauler requires one pink refuse sticker for each bag or rigid container of 30 gallons or less and two pink stickers for any item over 30 gallons, which is why a bulk item costs two stickers. Stickers are sold for 4.00 each at locations including Village Hall at 123 Madison Street, and one bulk item is collected each week with a general guideline of 50 pounds.
Items needing special equipment and extra labour, such as a piano, a sofa sleeper, a large entertainment centre and construction debris, are handled as a special refuse collection rather than with the two sticker bulk rule. The hauler provides a cost estimate after the item is described or photographed and does not guarantee collection of every item, and it also rents dumpsters for larger cleanouts.
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.
Village of Oak Park with Lakeshore Recycling Systems
Set out a bulk item with two pink stickers
A household with a couch, a mattress, a bed frame, a chair or another item that does not fit the cart.
Cost & conditions
$8 for for the two pink refuse stickers that a bulk item requires at 4.00 each, with one bulk item collected each week and a 50 pound general guideline. Oak Park residential buildings of five or fewer units served by Lakeshore Recycling Systems, with stickers bought in advance.
Arrange it
Buy the stickers at one of the listed sellers, attach both to the item, and put it out with the regular weekly collection by 7 a.m.
Two stickers cover one bulk item and the general guideline is 50 pounds, so anything heavier or needing equipment is a special collection, and the Village's prohibited list still applies.
A household with construction debris, a piano, a sofa sleeper or a large entertainment centre that the sticker rules do not cover.
Cost & conditions
The hauler quotes a special refuse collection after the item is described and does not publish a rate, so confirm the estimate and the acceptance before the material is moved.
Arrange it
Call 844.633.3577 or email a photo of the material to service@LRSrecycles.com for the estimate.
Quoted rather than stickered, collection is not guaranteed for every item, and a household with a larger cleanout can rent a dumpster from the same hauler instead.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Furniture removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Oak Park.
How much does furniture removal cost in Oak Park?+
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 Oak Park?+
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.
How does Oak Park collect a couch?+
A couch is a bulk item, so it takes two pink refuse stickers at 4.00 each and goes out with the one bulk item collected each week on the regular collection day. The Village lists sofas, love seats, one section of a sectional, chairs and bed frames as bulk examples, and the general guideline is that a bulk item stays under 50 pounds.Official guidance

One sticker covers a bag or rigid container of 30 gallons or less, two stickers are required for anything over 30 gallons, and a bulk item also takes two stickers with one bulk item collected each week, so a couch, a mattress or a carpet roll costs two stickers and the general guideline is 50 pounds.Official guidance
