Mattress Removal
View →$99first item · +$30 each more
Mattress removal in Rochester starts at $79 with Dropcurb, and you can book online in about 60 seconds, set it out curbside, and get same-day pickup in most ZIP codes. Mattress removal demand in Rochester spikes during May to September move-outs and spring cleanouts after the city's long snow season, when bulky items pile up in neighborhoods like Park Avenue, South Wedge, and 19th Ward. The City of Rochester allows mattresses as bulk refuse on normal collection day, but bulky pickups routed through 311 can still run into seasonal backlogs, so timing is not always predictable when you need a mattress gone fast. Monroe County's ecopark helps with specialty recycling, but it does not accept bagged garbage and only operates limited public hours (Wednesday 1:00 PM-6:30 PM and Saturday 7:30 AM-1:00 PM), which creates extra trips for many households. Dropcurb closes that gap with curbside mattress removal, no in-home appointment, and clear checkout pricing before you pay. A Plus Junk Removal lists a $149 king mattress pickup in Rochester, while Dropcurb mattress removal starts at $79 for straightforward curbside jobs.
Couch Removal
View →$79first item · +$28 each more
Couch removal in Rochester starts at $79 with Dropcurb, and you can book in about 60 seconds online, set the couch at the curb, and get same-day pickup without waiting at home. Rochester couch removal demand spikes around spring move-outs and lease turnover in neighborhoods like Park Avenue and South Wedge, where older duplexes and narrow stairwells make it hard to keep a bulky sofa inside once a new one is on the way. If you miss your window, the City of Rochester requires bulk items at the curb by 6:30 a.m. on your collection day and many residents still need a separate 311 bulky-item request, which creates delays during peak cleanout months. Monroe County ecopark is useful for specialty recycling, but it is self-haul only and does not solve same-day couch removal when you need the item gone before a delivery, inspection, or code notice. Dropcurb closes that gap with curbside-only couch removal, guaranteed upfront pricing, no in-home crew, and real-time confirmation when pickup is complete. LoadUp advertises couch removal in Rochester starting at $75 (with a $5 curbside discount on some bookings), but Dropcurb starts at $79 with the same no-call booking flow and no quote callback loop.
Furniture Removal
View →$79first item · +$29 each more
Furniture removal in Rochester, NY starts at $79 with Dropcurb, book online in about 60 seconds, leave the items curbside, and get same-day pickup without appointment windows. Furniture removal demand is high in Rochester because moving season and student turnover around neighborhoods like Park Avenue and the 19th Ward create short cleanup deadlines where people need old couches, dressers, and bed frames gone fast. Rochester's own refuse rules allow bulk furniture at the curb on collection day, but that still depends on your route timing and what the city accepts that week, which creates gaps when you miss pickup or have multiple large pieces to clear at once. Monroe County ecopark is useful for specialty recycling, but it does not accept bagged garbage and requires you to self-haul, which is friction if you are clearing a full apartment. Dropcurb keeps furniture removal simple in Rochester with fixed per-item pricing, no in-home entry, and photo-confirmed completion by a verified local hauler. Competitor pricing in market results is typically higher or quote-first, for example LoadUp furniture removal in Rochester starts at $89 while Dropcurb furniture removal starts at $79 with instant checkout instead of waiting on callbacks.
Appliance Removal
View →$109first item · +$59 each more
Appliance recycling in Rochester starts at $104 with Dropcurb (all-in), and you can book online in about 60 seconds instead of calling around for quotes. Appliance recycling is one of the biggest pain points in Rochester because move-outs and replacement deliveries pile up fast in neighborhoods like Park Avenue and South Wedge, especially when people need old units gone before the new one arrives. City of Rochester rules require appliance doors and latches to be removed before curb setout, and Monroe County ecopark lists a $20 fee for refrigerant-containing units like refrigerators, freezers, and ACs, so do-it-yourself appliance recycling can still mean prep work, transport, and line time. Dropcurb handles appliance recycling from your curb with same-day routing, no home entry, and live text updates so you know exactly when pickup is complete. Local competitor A Plus lists $129 for the first appliance and $69 for each additional unit, plus a quote-first flow for larger loads, while Dropcurb starts at $104 and shows exact pricing before checkout. If you want appliance recycling in Rochester without a dump run, this is the fastest path.
TV Removal
View →$79first item · +$29 each more
TV removal in Rochester starts at $99 with Dropcurb (all-in), and you can book online in about 60 seconds instead of calling around for a quote. TV removal demand in Rochester spikes during spring move-outs and home upgrades in neighborhoods like Park Avenue, South Wedge, and NOTA, where older apartments and narrow stairwells make it harder to store broken flatscreens while waiting on city schedules. Rochester and Monroe County rules are clear that electronics cannot go in regular curbside trash, and the county states it is illegal to discard e-waste in the trash, so households need a dedicated TV removal path that actually matches their timing. Ecopark does offer free electronics recycling at 10 Avion Drive, but the site runs limited public hours, Wednesday 1:00 PM to 6:30 PM and Saturday 7:30 AM to 1:00 PM, which often forces extra trips and weekday juggling. Dropcurb fills that gap with same-day curbside TV removal, no in-home entry, and fixed checkout pricing before pickup. LoadUp advertises Rochester TV disposal starting at $82, while Dropcurb TV removal starts at $99 with clear booking flow and no phone-call estimate step.

Super fast, price was great. In like 3 clicks of a button I just got a couch removed for $89 that I was gonna be charged $250 by my moving company. Great communication every step along the way, sent photos. Picked it up and removed it from curb in less than 45 minutes from booking to pickup. Was cheaper than i saw for two other services. I normally don't put this much effort into reviews but this legit was such a great customer experience from end to end. Kudos to the team for the way this business is run. Awesome price, awesome service.

This was absolutely the easiest experience I've ever had with a business. They have amazing communication including text. Pricing was extremely reasonable and service was quick. Their site is so easy to use. I was concerned this wasn't a legit company, but they absolutely are and I'm so glad I found them as I was quoted $1500 by another company in the St. Louis area. I was provided with photos from the pickup to validate that the items had been removed. Even tho I had to change the pickup date several times, I was able to easily text them to let them know I needed to change dates. Highly recommend!!!
