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.

A couch, love seat or recliner leaves the curb through the city bulk item program, and a sectional couch takes a sticker on every section.
City cost & eligibility
$40 per bulky item, either as a City bulk sticker bought before set-out or as the same charge paid through the online bulk item form. Grand Rapids residential addresses with city refuse service at properties of up to eight units, with one sticker for each item and a limit of six feet by five feet for any one item.
When & how
Attach a sticker to each piece and put it at the curb, or pay online and place it at the curb by 7 a.m. the next business day. The city aims to collect bulky items within three to five business days and generally within a week, and the item stays at the curb until it is picked up.
Get it ready
Keep the piece whole and liftable, take the cushions off so two people can carry the frame, leave the sticker visible to the driver, and keep furniture out of the recycling cart and the recycling drop-off containers.
Out by 7 a.m. and back off the curb the next morning
Carts go to the curb with the lid arrows facing the street by 7 a.m. on the collection day and stay at least three feet from poles, cars, hydrants and other carts. Nothing goes out before 7 p.m. the day before, and carts have to be off the curb by 7 a.m. the day after collection. A cart set out late draws a return fee, and a cart blocked by a vehicle or left on a sidewalk may not be serviced at all.
Sticker items stay at the curb until the truck comes
Furniture, mattresses, box springs, appliances and large household fixtures sit at the curb until the bulky collection reaches them, so the sticker has to stay attached and visible to the driver and the piece has to be placed where the truck can reach it. Items left out without a sticker are not collected and the property owner may receive a violation, and any one item is limited to six feet by five feet.
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.
City of Grand Rapids Public Works with Kent County Department of Public Works
Use the city bulk item sticker or the online bulk payment
A Grand Rapids household with a couch, mattress set, appliance or large household fixture that will not fit in the refuse cart.
Cost & conditions
$40 per bulky item, charged as a City bulk sticker attached to the item or as the same collection paid through the online bulk item form. Grand Rapids residential addresses with city refuse service at properties of up to eight units, with one sticker for each item, one sticker for a mattress and box spring together, one per sectional couch section and a six feet by five feet limit on any single item.
Arrange it
Buy the sticker at the City Hall customer service storefront on the M level of 300 Monroe Ave NW or at a participating supermarket or neighborhood store and attach it to the item, or pay through the online bulk item form and put the items at the curb by 7 a.m. the following business day.
Televisions of any kind, hazardous waste and tires are not collected at the curb, an item left out without a sticker is not picked up and can lead to a violation, and the item stays at the curb until the bulky collection arrives.
Use a retailer or reuse outlet for electronics, appliances and furniture
A household that would rather trade an item in, donate it or hand it to a retailer than drive to a county center.
Cost & conditions
The county's community resource lists publish no single rate: some outlets take electronics at no cost and others charge by item, and Best Buy, Office Depot OfficeMax and the recyclers each set their own price, so the amount has to be confirmed with the outlet before the trip.
Arrange it
The county lists Best Buy at 3410 Alpine Avenue NW, Comprenew, In The Image at 4255 Kalamazoo Avenue SE, Office Depot OfficeMax, Padnos, Valley City Electronic Recycling at 2929 32nd Street SE, Goodwill and Habitat for Humanity as outlets that may take electronics, appliances, furniture and building material, so call the outlet with the exact item first.
Some of these outlets charge for what they take, Goodwill accepts working flat screen televisions but no box-style sets, In The Image takes televisions only up to 42 inches that are cable ready with audio inputs, and working items should be donated or given away before they are scrapped.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Grand Rapids.
How much does couch removal cost in Grand Rapids?+
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 my couch at the curb?+
Yes, with a bulk sticker on the couch. The city lists couches, love seats, recliners, buffets, dressers, hutches, stereo cabinets, wall units and bed frames as sticker items, and a sectional couch needs a sticker for every section. The piece has to be at the curb, no bigger than six feet by five feet, and it stays there until the bulky collection comes, which the city aims to complete within three to five business days of the set-out.Official guidance
How much does a bulky item pickup cost in Grand Rapids?+
The city charges one bulk sticker for each item it collects, and the same charge can be paid through the online bulk item form instead of buying a sticker. A mattress and box spring together take one sticker, and a sectional couch needs a sticker for every section. A household that hauls its own load instead pays the county per piece for a mattress or box spring and per unit for an appliance holding refrigerant, on top of any vehicle-load minimum for general refuse.Official guidance
Can I pay for a bulky pickup online in Grand Rapids?+
Yes. The city's online bulk item form covers the same collection as a bulk sticker, so nothing has to be bought in advance or attached to the item. The items then have to be at the curb by 7 a.m. the next business day and stay there until they are collected, which the city aims to complete within three to five business days and generally within a week of the payment. Any one item is still limited to six feet by five feet, and televisions, hazardous waste and tires are still refused.Official guidance
