One dresser or a few pieces from different rooms, gone from the curb. Choose what goes, see the exact total and book by 2pm for same-day pickup. You don’t need to be home.
The desk you no longer use. The dresser that doesn’t fit the new layout. The chairs left over after a move. Choose the pieces you’re done with and give them a pickup day, without arranging a quote visit.
Different pieces. One clear total.

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.

Furniture is named on the bulky cleanup list and is collected only during the annual neighborhood cleanup.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Bulky items including furniture are collected by city crews during the annual neighborhood cleanup as part of the city sanitation service, and the city publishes no per item charge for the cleanup.
When & how
Set the furniture out the weekend before your neighborhood's scheduled cleanup week and check the week in the app or the service finder.
Get it ready
Keep furniture separate from yard waste, brush and recyclables, keep the pile to what the city can collect, and remember that construction material, car parts, cement, glass, lumber, paint and tires are refused even in the cleanup pile.
Carts go out by 6 a.m. and come back by 8 a.m. the next day
Carts go to the curb by 6 a.m. on the collection day, and no earlier than 5 p.m. the day before, with the lift handle facing the street and the lid hinge away from it, and they come back in by 8 a.m. the next day. Only the carts issued by the city can be used, the cart goes at the curb rather than in the street, and it stays three feet from trees, bushes, parked cars and other carts.
All garbage is bagged inside the cart and nothing sits outside it
All garbage has to be bagged in heavy-duty plastic bags and completely contained within the cart with the lid closed, no additional bags may be placed outside the cart, and excess garbage is held for the next week's collection. One 96 gallon trash cart and one recycling cart are provided to residents at no charge, and the city serves single-family households with garbage, recycling, yard waste carts, brush, leaves and the annual bulky cleanup.
The bulky cleanup refuses several categories outright
The city cannot collect construction materials, car parts, cement, electronic waste, glass, hazardous or infectious waste, lumber or wood, oil drums, paint, rocks, tires or yard waste on the bulky cleanup, and a pile that is mixed with unacceptable materials is not collected at all. Bulky items are collected only during the annual neighborhood cleanup, which is for single-family homes, and outside that week the city directs residents to the Hanes Mill Road Landfill at 325 W Hanes Mill Rd.
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.
