FAQ
Common questions about junk removal in Indiana
How much does junk removal cost in Indiana?
Dropcurb starts at $79 across all 22 cities in Indiana. Every item has an all-in first-item price and an add-on price. A couch is $79, a queen mattress is $99, a dresser is $79, a TV is $99, a refrigerator is $134, a treadmill is $109. Additional items each add their own add-on price. The price you see is the price you pay — nothing added at checkout.
Does Indiana offer free bulk pickup?
It depends on the city. 11 of the 22 cities we serve in Indiana offer some form of bulk pickup, but programs vary widely in frequency, item limits, and scheduling requirements. Anderson, Bloomington, Carmel, Fishers, Greenwood, Jeffersonville, Lawrence, Muncie, New Albany, Noblesville, Terre Haute have no municipal bulk pickup program. See the comparison table above for details. Dropcurb offers same-day pickup across all 22 cities starting at $79.
How fast can I get junk removed in Indiana?
Same day. Book before noon in any of our 22 Indiana cities and your items are picked up by 8 PM. No appointment windows. Place items at the curb and go about your day. We text you confirmation when the hauler completes the pickup.
What items does Dropcurb pick up in Indiana?
Dropcurb picks up furniture (couches, dressers, desks, tables, bed frames), mattresses and box springs, appliances (refrigerators, washers, dryers, stoves, dishwashers), electronics (TVs, monitors, computers), exercise equipment (treadmills, ellipticals, exercise bikes), outdoor items (grills, patio furniture, trampolines), and bagged junk. We do not pick up hazardous materials, propane tanks, tires, or items over 400 lbs like hot tubs and pianos.
Do I have to be home for a Dropcurb pickup in Indiana?
No. Dropcurb is curbside-only across all 22 cities in Indiana. Place items at the curb (or your driveway apron) by 8 AM the day of pickup. The hauler texts you a confirmation photo when the pickup is complete — no signature, no walk-through, and no one enters your home or garage. This is the core difference between Dropcurb and a traditional in-home haul: you book online, leave it out, and go about your day.
