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.

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.
Furniture removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Grand Rapids.
How much does furniture removal cost in Grand Rapids?+
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. Your total starts with the highest first-item price in your selection, then uses the additional-item price for every other item. Review the complete total and any applicable tax before payment.
Can I get same-day furniture pickup in Grand Rapids?+
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.
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
