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.

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.

Skokie takes one large bulky item or two smaller items at the curb each week on your regular collection day, with no appointment and no extra step.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. House or apartment building up to four units on the village collection route, where the weekly bulky item is part of the village program and no separate charge is published.
When & how
Same day as the regular refuse collection, at the curb by 7 a.m. Keep it out no more than 24 hours ahead, and skip the set-out during a holiday week.
Get it ready
Keep the load to one large item or two small ones, and put it out beside the carts rather than in them. Anything larger is scheduled with Public Works or handled with a dumpster.
A couch counts as the large bulky item the village accepts each week, so it leaves on your regular collection day without an appointment.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. House or apartment building up to four units on the village collection route, where the weekly bulky item carries no published charge.
When & how
Same day as the regular refuse collection, at the curb by 7 a.m. and no more than 24 hours ahead.
Get it ready
Keep cushions, drawers and loose parts with the piece so it leaves as one item. Carpeting is cut into lengths of six feet or less, rolled no wider than 18 inches, and limited to about one small room or an area rug.
Carts and bulky items go to the curb by 7 a.m. on your collection day. Carts should not go out before 6 p.m. the night before, bulky items should not go out more than 24 hours ahead, and a late cart is not collected on a second trip.
Do not put bulky items out during a holiday week. Yard waste in a holiday week moves to the Saturday after the holiday, and the village publishes the full refuse, recycling and yard waste holiday schedule.
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 Skokie Public Works, with LRS for recycling and larger buildings
Scheduled move-out or dumpster for a larger cleanout
Several bulky items, a full room clear-out or a large appliance load
Cost & conditions
The village publishes no price for a scheduled move-out or a rented dumpster, so confirm the current arrangement and cost before booking.
Arrange it
Call Public Works at 847-933-8427 to schedule a small move-out, or rent a dumpster through the village hauler LRS at 1-844-NEED-LRS. Nothing goes to the curb until the pickup is confirmed.
A scheduled pickup is required once the load is more than one large item or two small pieces, and dumpsters must come from the village hauler.
Material that cannot leave in the carts moves through SWANCC. Electronics go to the drop-off site at 3 Providence Way in Des Plaines on most Saturdays, construction and other landfill waste goes to the SWANCC transfer station for a fee, and household hazardous material such as oil-based paint, chemicals and batteries can be collected from the home through the village's Clean Harbors program. Confirm the site, the hours and any charge before you load a vehicle.
