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.

Household furniture is one of the bulky items Carmel's hauler collects, so a couch leaves on a scheduled bulky pickup at an additional charge per item. The city asks for at least 48 hours of notice before the normal pickup day.
City cost & eligibility
$20 per bulky item under the City of Carmel programme, paid by the resident in addition to the monthly trash and recycling charge, with bulky landscape waste priced separately at 40.00 per pickup. Carmel residential addresses on the mandatory city programme, with the bulky pickup arranged in advance through Republic Services.
When & how
Call Republic Services at 317-917-7300 at least 48 hours before the normal pickup day, and expect collection within the published 7:00am to 6:00pm service window.
Get it ready
Have the piece at the curb for the arranged day, keep it out of the cart, and confirm the item with the hauler because the city names household furniture, some appliances and bicycles rather than listing every acceptable piece.
Bulky items need arranging, and the fee is per item
Carmel's weekly collection is for carts, so furniture, some appliances and bicycles need a bulky pickup arranged with Republic Services at least 48 hours before the normal pickup day. The bulky service adds 20.00 per item and bulky landscape waste is priced separately at 40.00 per pickup, so confirm the items and the total before the pickup is booked.
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.

How much does furniture removal cost in Carmel?+
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.

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.
