Mattress Removal

View →
$99first item · +$30 each more

Couch Removal

Multiple items in one pickup. NYC apartment cleanouts, estate clearances, post-renovation debris. Add items to your order — way simpler than multiple 311 requests.

New York City's bulk pickup has limits — we don't

DSNY eliminated bulk pickup appointments — residents now place up to 6 large items at the curb on their regular collection day at no charge. The catch: mattresses and box springs must be sealed in a plastic bag or encasement (available at hardware stores for $5-15). CFC appliances (fridges, freezers, window ACs) still require a separate 311 request for Freon recovery. NYC bans all e-waste from curbside trash — TVs, computers, and monitors must go to SAFE Disposal events (scheduled by borough, check nyc.gov/safedisposal) or permanent drop-off sites. Full-truck junk removal in NYC runs $500-$1,000 from traditional services. Flat Rate Junk Removal charges $0.85 per cubic foot. 1-800-GOT-JUNK serves all five boroughs at $150-$600+ with mandatory in-person estimates. LoadUp starts at $79/item plus service area fee. Junkluggers NYC uses volume-based pricing. The real cost of DIY disposal: a U-Haul rental ($89) plus 4 hours of your time at NYC's effective wage ($28/hour) totals $201 in opportunity cost. NYC Sanitation Convenience Centers accept furniture and bulk items for free but require self-transport — most are in outer boroughs with limited hours.
