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.
Couches, tables, chairs and other household furniture are on the city's curbside item table. Weekly bulk and special pickup runs in reasonable quantities, and furniture beyond one room's worth is handled as a clean-out.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Furniture rides with the residential service that the quarterly rate already covers, and the hauler answers that large item pickups are included rather than billed. A load past one room's worth is treated as a clean-out and the city asks for a dumpster.
When & how
Collected on your regular service day, with the piece at the curb by 7 a.m. and nothing out before 6 p.m. the evening before.
Get it ready
Place the piece neatly at the curb in the right of way between the sidewalk and the street. Keep it out of the street, off the sidewalk and away from the driveway, and empty drawers or cushions so the piece is light enough to lift.
Out after 6 p.m. the night before and before 7 a.m. on pickup day
Trash, recycling, yard waste and bulky items go to the curb no earlier than 6 p.m. the evening before your service day and no later than 7 a.m. on the day itself. The hauler states plainly that all material has to be at the curb by 7 a.m.
In the right of way between the sidewalk and the street
Place bins and bulky items at the curb in the right of way between the sidewalk and the street, with containers separated from each other. Containers do not belong in the driveway, on the sidewalk or in the street, and the city asks that nothing extends over a sidewalk or the roadway.
City issued carts are voluntary. If you use your own container for garbage or yard waste, the maximum is 32 gallons and 60 pounds, and bags should not weigh more than 40 pounds. Trash in a recycling cart is not serviced, and the carts are not interchangeable.
Large household items are collected in reasonable quantities, but the city asks for a dumpster when a house clean-out, or the debris and furniture, runs past one room's worth. A move-out is the same calculation, so size the load before you set it out.
New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day are observed. When one falls on or before your service day, pickup runs one day later than normal, and a holiday on a weekend causes no delay.
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 St. Clair Shores Public Works Department with Express Waste Services
Weekly curbside collection with Express Waste
A household setting out mattresses, couches, appliances, exercise equipment or prepared homeowner building material with the regular collection on its service day.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Curbside service is inside the residential quarterly rate every household already pays, and the hauler answers that large item pickups carry no separate charge. The rate amount is not published on the pages read for this guide, so confirm your quarterly bill with the hauler at 248-927-1391.
Arrange it
Put everything at the curb by 7 a.m. on your service day and nothing out before 6 p.m. the evening before. Large household items are picked up neatly at the curb with the regular collection, and mattresses need plastic wrapped around them.
Tires, concrete, fencing, contractor generated materials, liquid paints and chemicals, car parts, freon appliances, fluorescent bulbs, batteries and propane tanks are refused at the curb. Clean-outs past one room's worth need a dumpster, and containers are limited to 32 gallons and 60 pounds with bags under 40 pounds.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in St. Clair Shores.
How much does couch removal cost in St. Clair Shores?+
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.
How much furniture will St. Clair Shores take at the curb?+
Weekly bulk and special pickup is available in reasonable quantities, and house clean-outs or debris and furniture beyond one room's worth are expected to use a dumpster instead. Put the pieces out neatly on your service day, and call the DPW at 586-445-5363 if you are unsure whether the load fits.Official guidance
Where should a couch or table go on pickup day?+
At the curb, in the right of way between the sidewalk and the street. Containers are separated at the curb and everything has to be out before 7 a.m. on your service day, so keep furniture off the sidewalk, out of the driveway and clear of the street.Official guidance
What time do items need to be at the curb in St. Clair Shores?+
Waste, recycling and bulky items go out no earlier than 6 p.m. the evening before your service day and no later than 7 a.m. on the day itself. The hauler states that everything must be at the curb by 7 a.m., so an item set out later risks waiting another week.Official guidance
Who do I call if my pickup is missed?+
Call Express Waste at 313-933-7000 for service issues including missed stops and bulk pickups, and call the Department of Public Works at 586-445-5363 when an item is unclear or you are not sure how it should be set out.Official guidance
What do I do with a whole-house clean-out?+
A move-out runs well past the weekly allowance, and the city asks for a dumpster when furniture and debris exceed one room's worth. Put a normal load out on the regular service day, and size anything larger against the one pickup-truck load the monthly Long Monday drop off allows.Official guidance
