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.

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.

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.

Up to two bulk items under 50 pounds each and up to two cubic yards of extra material are included, and anything beyond that is billed by the yard or quoted as a special pickup.

City cost & eligibility

The included allowance covers two cubic yards of additional waste that will not fit the cart and up to two bulk items, each under 50 pounds and under two cubic yards. Beyond that, LRS provides service as needed on an agreed per yard basis billed separately, and the village rate table prices non containerized material pickup at 12.39 per yard with a two yard minimum.
When & how
Set the material out on the collection day by 7 a.m., and call LRS at 844-633-3577 when the load is larger than the included allowance so the per yard or special pickup arrangement can be made.
Get it ready

When & how

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Curb by 7 a.m., never before the night window

Carts and material go out no earlier than 6 p.m. the night before pickup from April 1 through September 30 and no earlier than 4 p.m. from October 1 through March 31, and everything has to be at the curb by 7 a.m. on the collection day. Carts belong in the parkway or on a driveway apron, because a cart in the street or bike lane violates the village code.

Prepare the bulky items the way the village lists

Nothing may exceed 50 pounds, carpet is cut into widths no greater than four feet and tied in rolls, window and patio glass is broken into a box labeled broken glass with the frames disassembled, grills and gas equipment are emptied of fuel with the empty tank placed in the trash separately, two piece toilets are separated, and a mattress or box spring is wrapped in plastic with a queen or king set split across two weeks.

Lakeshore Recycling Systems for the Village of Schaumburg, with the village running the electronics and hazardous waste referrals

Use the included bulk allowance

A Schaumburg household with up to two bulky items, such as a couch, a mattress or a couple of chairs, and up to two cubic yards of extra material.

Cost & conditions
No charge. Two cubic yards of additional waste and up to two bulk items are included with the village funded collection at no additional cost, as long as each item is under 50 pounds and under two cubic yards and the load is within Illinois landfill rules and safe for the driver to handle.
Arrange it
Set the items out on the collection day by 7 a.m. with the required preparation, and call LRS at 844-633-3577 if the load exceeds the included allowance.

Anything beyond two items or two cubic yards is billed separately by the yard or quoted as a special pickup, and electronics, televisions, tires, antifreeze, unhardened paint, batteries, pesticides, pressurized tanks, flammable waste, riding lawn mowers, gasoline and snow blowers must not be placed out at all.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Schaumburg pays for its basic refuse and recycling program and LRS runs it: a free garbage cart and recycling cart at every home in three sizes, weekly waste and recycling, and seasonal yard waste from April 1 through the second full week of December. Nothing needs a sticker, material goes out no earlier than 6 p.m. the night before from April through September and 4 p.m. from October through March, and everything is at the curb by 7 a.m. Cleaning out means working inside the included allowance: two cubic yards of extra material and up to two bulk items, each under 50 pounds and under two cubic yards, with mattresses wrapped in plastic and a queen or king set split over two weeks, carpet rolled no wider than four feet, broken glass boxed and labeled, grills emptied of fuel, and toilets separated. Anything bigger is arranged and billed through LRS at 844-633-3577, which also does a separate major appliance collection at 25.81 per appliance. Electronics are illegal in the Illinois trash and get tagged at the curb, so televisions, monitors, computers and microwaves go to a listed local recycler such as Protech Environmental in Elk Grove, where a television or monitor of any size is 20.00 and a microwave is 20.00, while household batteries, cell phones and CFL bulbs go to the village drop boxes at Temporary Village Hall, Engineering and Public Works or the Al Larson Cultural Center. Hazardous products never go in the refuse: paint, gasoline, pesticides, antifreeze and pressurized tanks go to the Naperville household hazardous waste facility at 156 Fort Hill Drive, open 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on weekends.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does furniture removal cost in Schaumburg?

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 Schaumburg?

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 much bulk waste is included?

Two cubic yards of additional waste that will not fit the cart plus up to two bulk items, as long as each item is under 50 pounds and under two cubic yards and the load is safe for the driver to handle. Anything beyond that is arranged with LRS at 844-633-3577 and billed separately by the yard.Official guidance

How do I prepare bulky material for Schaumburg?

Keep every item under 50 pounds, roll carpet and padding no wider than four feet, box broken window glass and label the box, disassemble frames and toilets, and empty and remove fuel tanks from grills and gas equipment before setting the tank out in the trash. Large, awkward or heavy items beyond the included allowance need a special pickup arranged with LRS.Official guidance

Will Schaumburg pick up a couch?

Yes, as one of the two bulk items included with the village funded service, provided the piece is under 50 pounds and under two cubic yards. A larger or awkward piece still gets collected through LRS at 844-633-3577, but it is scheduled and billed separately.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Schaumburg?

Lakeshore Recycling Systems, known as LRS, has been the village's exclusive residential provider for curbside waste, recycling and yard waste since May 1, 2022. The village pays for the basic program and sets service up automatically, while special services are arranged and paid for by the resident through LRS at 844-633-3577.Official guidance

How much bulk waste is included in Schaumburg?

Two cubic yards of extra material plus up to two bulk items, each under 50 pounds and under two cubic yards, as long as the load is within Illinois landfill rules and safe for the driver to handle.

Where do electronics go?

To one of the local recyclers the village lists, because electronics are illegal in the regular trash and the contractor tags anything left at the curb.

Batteries, cell phones and CFL bulbs have their own village drop boxes.Official guidance

How does yard waste collection work?

Yard waste runs from April 1 through the second full week in December on the same day as the rest of the collection, using the resident's own can of 35 gallons or less marked YW or brown kraft bags at no charge, with a 50 pound limit and bundles no longer than four feet and two feet in diameter. Food waste may be mixed in, a cart can be rented for a fee, and multi family dwellings are excluded from yard waste service.Official guidance
