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.

Furniture is named in the trash definition and is collected when it will not fit the city container.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no collection rate on its garbage and trash pages, so confirm the current charge and the pickup day for a furniture item with Public Works at 337-491-1220.
When & how
Put the furniture out with the trash that will not fit the city container, and call 337-491-1220 for your pickup date because trash is collected from residences at least twice a month.
Get it ready
Keep the piece out of the garbage container, keep the container itself limited to bagged garbage, and keep building materials, tires and hazardous waste off the same pile because those are not collected.
Garbage is bagged inside the city container and collected weekly
Garbage is the city's term for all solid or semi-solid kitchen refuse subject to decay along with its packaging, and the ordinance also counts waste paper, debris and rubbish normally produced in a household as garbage. All garbage belongs in plastic bags inside the city-provided ninety-eight-gallon container, and specific pickup questions go to Public Works at 337-491-1220.
Trash is everything that will not fit the container, and white goods need a call
Trash is any refuse other than garbage and includes furniture, bedding, debris and rubbish normally produced in a household that will not fit in the ninety-eight-gallon container, and the city collects trash and yard waste from residences at least twice a month. White goods are picked up too, but the owner has to call ahead to 337-491-1220, items must be free of perishable food with doors or lids removed or taped shut, and any refrigerant must be professionally removed before collection.
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.

A few things worth knowing.
Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Lake Charles.
How much does couch removal cost in Lake Charles?+
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.
