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 does not go in the rollout cart. Cary handles it two ways: the town's own policy names bulky items as a convenience center provision, and a household can book a curbside special collection through 311 where fees may apply.
City cost & eligibility
The town publishes no bulky item rate. Garbage that will not fit in the cart goes to the Citizen's Convenience Center at no charge, while a scheduled special collection is described as carrying fees that may apply, so confirm the arrangement and any charge with 311 before the pickup.
When & how
Book the special collection through 311 or the town's request system, or take the item to the Citizen's Convenience Center during its open hours.
Get it ready
Keep furniture out of the cart, and keep it clear of light poles, mailboxes, fire hydrants and the yard waste pile if it is set out at the curb. Construction debris, paint, tires and treated lumber are refused, so leave those off the load.
Rollout carts go to the curb no earlier than dusk the night before collection and no later than 7 a.m. on the collection day, with the arrows on the lid pointing toward the street. Keep the cart out of the roadway and clear of light poles, mailboxes and fire hydrants, leave room between the garbage and recycling carts and the yard waste pile, and bring the emptied cart back in before 6 a.m. the next day.
Cary says the Citizen's Convenience Center stays open as usual through December 31, 2026, and that from January 1, 2027 only the food and yard waste drop-off remains because the North Carolina Railroad needs the right-of-way. For everything else the town points residents to the Wake County Multi-Material Recycling Facility on Old Smithfield Road in Apex and the Wake County Convenience Center on Aviation Parkway in Morrisville, where county fees may apply, and it confirms that curbside collection is not affected.
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.
Town of Cary Solid Waste and Wake County facilities
Book a curbside special collection through 311
A Cary household with a couch, mattress, appliance or another bulky item that will not fit in the rollout cart.
Cost & conditions
The town says a scheduled special collection may carry a fee but publishes no amount, so confirm the charge with 311 when the collection is booked.
Arrange it
Call 311 inside Cary or (919) 469-4000 from outside town limits, or submit a request through the town's service system, and follow the set-out instructions it gives.
The cart service itself is for household garbage and recycling, and material the town refuses at its own facility, such as construction debris, paint, tires and treated lumber, stays off this route.
Town of Cary Solid Waste and Wake County facilities
Take it to the Citizen's Convenience Center
A Cary household with bulky items, appliances, electronics, recycling or yard waste and its own vehicle.
Cost & conditions
The center has resumed fee collection for appliance and electronics recycling, paid on site by credit or debit card, and the town directs readers to the Waste Wizard or Cary Collects app for the amount. Other bulky material carries no published charge.
Arrange it
Drive to 313 N. Dixon Ave. during open hours, Monday to Saturday 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. or Sunday 1 to 6 p.m., and pay any appliance or electronics fee at the gate.
Construction and remodeling debris, paint, motor oil, oil filters, tires, propane tanks, shingles, stumps, treated lumber, pallets, dirt, rocks, concrete, car batteries and household hazardous waste are refused. Commercial and contractor waste is prohibited, and box trucks and enclosed trailers are not admitted. Public access to everything except food and yard waste ends December 31, 2026.
Cary residents have two ways to move bulky material themselves and one date to plan around. The Citizen's Convenience Center at 313 N. Dixon Ave. takes residential bulky items, recyclables, food waste and yard waste, and recycles appliances and electronics for a fee paid on site, but it refuses construction and remodeling debris, paint, motor oil, oil filters, tires, propane tanks, shingles, stumps, treated lumber, pallets, dirt, rocks, concrete and car batteries, and it does not admit commercial or contractor loads, box trucks or enclosed trailers. The town says the center keeps operating as usual through December 31, 2026, and that from January 1, 2027 only the food and yard waste drop-off remains, with Wake County facilities named as the replacement. Those county options are the South Wake Multi-Material Recycling Facility at 6130 Old Smithfield Road in Apex for appliances, electronics, antifreeze, motor oil and oil filters, the Wake County Convenience Center Site 2 at 6120 Old Smithfield Road for up to two mattresses a day, homeowner construction debris with verification and scrap metal, and the South Wake Household Hazardous Waste Facility at 6150 Old Smithfield Road for paint, batteries, solvents and garden chemicals. Curbside carts, yard waste and the special collection request through 311 are not affected by the change.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in cary.
How much does couch removal cost in cary?+
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 does Cary collect a couch?+
As a bulky item rather than cart material. The town's solid waste policy lists bulky items as a convenience center provision, so a household can drive it to the Citizen's Convenience Center at 313 N. Dixon Ave. or call 311 to book a curbside special collection, where the town says fees may apply.Official guidance
Who collects trash and recycling in Cary?+
The Town of Cary collects household garbage and recycling in town rollout carts for residents who pay the monthly sanitation fee, and yard waste is collected on the same day. Questions and service requests go to 311 inside Cary or (919) 469-4000 from outside town limits.Official guidance
Is the Citizen's Convenience Center closing?+
Part of it. The town says the center stays open as usual through December 31, 2026, and that from January 1, 2027 only the food and yard waste drop-off remains because the North Carolina Railroad needs the right-of-way. For everything else the town points residents to the Wake County Multi-Material Recycling Facility on Old Smithfield Road in Apex and the Wake County Convenience Center on Aviation Parkway in Morrisville, and curbside collection is not affected.Official guidance
Who arranges disposal for an apartment or a shared building?+
Start with the property manager. The town service covers residences that pay the monthly sanitation fee, and the convenience center is closed to commercial and contractor loads, so a shared building may need its own arrangement for material that will not fit the cart.Official guidance
