A loveseat, a sleeper and a sectional can look similar in a photo. Match the shape and features so your online price covers what is actually going.
This example has three structural sections. The cushions do not add to the count.
A straight sofa or loveseat
Choose Standard sofa for fixed seats with no pull-out bed or reclining mechanism. One whole sofa is one item.
A sectional
Count its structural sections, not the loose cushions. Choose the piece count, then check for a sleeper or reclining feature. One sectional booking covers the configuration you select.
A pull-out bed or reclining seats
Choose Sleeper sofa or Reclining sofa for those mechanisms. A single reclining chair has its own Recliner choice. All sofa types also includes futons and sofas with a chaise.

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.
The city's own answers and its moving guide both send a couch or any other item that will not fit in the cart to the Residential Special Item Pick-Up request. Nothing goes to the curb until that request is submitted and accepted.
City cost & eligibility
Couch and furniture collection carries no published item price. The 2026 rate sheet lists a residential special pick-up, late set-out and off-cycle charge of $52.90, and the form says an excessive pile is charged once a supervisor evaluates the site. Confirm your load at 785-832-3032.
When & how
Request collection for your next trash day and get the form in by 4 p.m. the business day before it. Holiday weeks have no bulky collections.
Get it ready
Describe every piece on the form, take out drawers where you can, and have the furniture at the curb where the carts go once the request is accepted. Keep it clear of the cart, the sidewalk and the street.
Lawrence schedules bulky items for your next trash day, and the request has to reach the city by 4 p.m. on the business day before that collection. A request sent later moves to the following week, and no bulky items are collected during a holiday week.
The request form asks you to place bulky items at the curb where your trash carts are normally set, and the city asks residents not to leave anything out before a collection is scheduled. Keep the pile clear of the cart, the sidewalk and the street so the crew can reach it.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Lawrence.
How much does couch removal cost in Lawrence?+
A standard sofa is $79 as the first item and $29 additional. Sectionals, sleepers and reclining sofas have their own choices. Select everything that is going to see the combined price before booking. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; any applicable sales tax appears before payment.
Can you pick up my couch today?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the couch outside and accessible according to your confirmation. We send pickup updates and photos when it is done; the booking is for a day rather than an exact arrival time.
How do I book a sectional for removal?+
Open Sectional in the sofa choices, count its structural sections, and select any sleeper or reclining feature. Count the sections with their own bases, not loose cushions. The matching catalog choice covers one complete sectional of that configuration. Text a photo before booking if you are unsure.
Will you carry my couch out of my apartment?+
Dropcurb starts outside. Arrange for the sofa to be moved through the apartment and down interior stairs before pickup. We load and haul it away from an accessible outdoor spot. Arrange any dismantling needed to get it outside beforehand.
Do I need to wait at home for couch pickup?+
You do not need to be home when your booked sofa is outside and accessible. Add photos and pickup-location notes to your order so the right pieces are easy to identify. We send updates and completion photos. Confirm any building access restrictions with us before booking.
Will the city take a couch that will not fit in the cart?+
Yes. Lawrence names couches among the large items that do not fit in the cart and asks you to submit a Residential Special Item Pick-Up request rather than leaving furniture out. Have the couch at the curb only after the request is accepted.Official guidance
When does a large item request have to be in?+
Submit the form by 4 p.m. on the business day before your regular trash day, and by Friday at 4 p.m. if your collection day is Monday. A late request moves to the following week, and bulky items are not collected during holiday weeks.Official guidance
Who do I call about an item the form does not list?+
Call the Solid Waste Division at 785-832-3032 or email solidwaste@lawrenceks.gov. The city's Recyclable Materials Directory lists local drop-off outlets for material that does not belong in the trash, in the recycling cart or on a bulky request.Official guidance
