Flat prices in Newark. Every item.
First item includes the pickup fee. Each additional item is a flat add-on. No hourly rates, no truck-volume math, no on-site estimates.
Mattress Removal
View →$99first item · +$30 each more
Newark DPW counts mattresses against your 4-item collection day limit. Dropcurb picks up any mattress same-day from Ironbound apartments to Forest Hill homes — no waiting for your next trash day.
Couch Removal
View →$99first item · +$28 each more
Sectionals from University Heights, recliners from Vailsburg, sleeper sofas from Downtown Newark. Same-day curbside pickup without splitting items across multiple DPW collection days.
Furniture Removal
View →$79first item · +$29 each more
Desks, dressers, tables, bed frames. Newark apartment turnover in Ironbound and Downtown means constant furniture disposal. One Dropcurb trip handles the full room — no 4-item DPW limit.
Appliance Recycling
View →$134first item · +$84 each more
Appliance removal in Newark starts at $104 with Dropcurb for your first unit (all-in), and additional appliance recycling items are +$54 each, so you can book online in about 60 seconds and get same-day curbside pickup without an in-home estimate. Appliance recycling demand stays high in Newark because dense apartment turnover in Ironbound, University Heights, and Downtown regularly leaves disconnected washers, dryers, and refrigerators at the curb between leases. Newark DPW limits bulk collection to four items per collection day and directs residents to handle electronics recycling through DPW guidance, while Newark recycling code language also requires white goods and scrap metal to be separated from regular municipal solid waste, which makes appliance recycling more specific than standard trash day. Dropcurb closes that gap with transparent appliance recycling pricing, curbside-only workflow, and photo confirmation after pickup in Newark. Competitor pages are usually generic junk pages with call-for-quote steps, and Brave results show LoadUp appliance removal in Newark starting around $120, while Dropcurb starts at $104 with instant checkout and no pricing haggling.
TV Removal
View →$99first item · +$39 each more
TV removal in Newark starts at $99 with Dropcurb, all-in, and you can book in about 60 seconds online without calling for an estimate. TV removal demand is steady in Newark because apartment turnover in neighborhoods like Ironbound and University Heights regularly leaves older flat-screens and CRT units curbside during move-outs. Newark DPW allows only up to four bulk items per collection day, and the city specifically directs residents to recycle electronics at DPW Headquarters on 62 Frelinghuysen Ave instead of putting TVs in regular trash. New Jersey e-waste rules reinforce that TV removal has to follow a certified recycling path, not normal garbage pickup. Dropcurb handles TV removal same day from curbside, so you avoid splitting pickups across multiple collection days or driving to a drop-off facility yourself. Competitor listings show LoadUp Newark starts at $79 for a single bulky item and advertises TV disposal starting at $82, while Dropcurb keeps TV removal straightforward at $99 with instant checkout, no in-home walkthrough, and photo confirmation after pickup in Newark.
Construction Debris Removal
View →$109first item · +$59 each more
Same-day pickup for bagged/light construction debris from $109.
E-Waste Disposal
View →$99first item · +$39 each more
TVs, monitors, computers. Newark's bulk collection restricts certain electronics. Dropcurb picks up from Seventh Avenue to University Heights and routes to certified recyclers.
Exercise Equipment Removal
View →$159first item · +$85 each more
Treadmills, ellipticals, weight benches. Heavy equipment counts against Newark's 4-item limit — one treadmill eats 25% of your collection day allowance. Same-day pickup, no limit.
Bulk Junk Removal
View →$79first item · +$29 each more
Move-out cleanouts, estate clearing, renovation debris. Newark's 4-item cap means splitting a cleanout across 3-4 collection days. Dropcurb clears everything in one trip — total price upfront.
