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.

The Bulk Waste Pickup Program was suspended on March 20, 2026 for 90 days and is being re-evaluated, and during the suspension bulk items including furniture, mattresses, bed frames and chairs go out on the regular garbage day at no additional cost.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. No additional cost during the suspension for a city household putting bulk items out on its regularly scheduled garbage day. The programme itself is suspended rather than cancelled and is being re-evaluated, so confirm the current position with the department at 518-382-5144.
When & how
Put the items out on the regularly scheduled garbage day, because the separate bulk sticker collection is not running while the programme is suspended.
Get it ready
Keep the items to the bulk categories the city names, which are furniture, mattresses, bed frames and chairs, and keep them out of the recycling container. Keep construction and demolition material out entirely, because the city refuses it in the yard waste stream and publishes no collection route for it.
Furniture and chairs are named in the city's suspension notice as bulk items that may go out on the regular garbage day at no additional cost.
City cost & eligibility

The programme is suspended rather than cancelled and is being re-evaluated, and appliances are excluded from this allowance because they wait for the red calendar dates.
Self haul in Schenectady runs through the city collection and the county programme. The Bulk Waste Pickup Program is suspended after the March 20, 2026 Council vote, and during the suspension furniture, mattresses, bed frames and chairs go out on the regular garbage day at no additional cost, while appliances such as washers, dryers, stoves and refrigerators are collected only on the dates printed in red on the waste collection calendar. Yard waste goes out on the regular garbage day from April through November in 30 gallon brown paper bags, with no plastic bags or bins and no construction or demolition material. Single stream recycling takes paper, plastic, aluminium and glass in a container of 40 gallons or less with two stickers from City Hall Room 9. Household chemicals labelled flammable, toxic, corrosive or reactive go to the Schenectady County Household Hazardous Waste Collection Program on (518) 388-4775 or recycling@schenectadycountyny.gov, which is for county residents, needs registration and requires a composting facility and Resident Recycling Center permit to register. The city publishes no electronics, television or construction collection and no drop-off for either, so those have to be confirmed with Neighborhood Revitalization and Waste Collection at 518-382-5144, at 105 Jay Street Room 9.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Schenectady.
How much does couch removal cost in Schenectady?+
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.
Is bulk pickup still suspended in Schenectady?+
The city's notice states that on March 20, 2026 the Council voted to suspend the Bulk Waste Pickup Program for 90 days, after which it would be re-evaluated and either reinstated or the suspension extended. During the suspension, residents may put bulk items including furniture, mattresses, bed frames and chairs out on their regular garbage day at no additional cost, and the department on 518-382-5144 can confirm whether the suspension has since been extended.Official guidance
Will Schenectady take a couch at the curb?+
Yes while the bulk programme is suspended. The city's March 2026 notice states that residents may place bulk items including furniture, mattresses, bed frames and chairs out for collection on their regularly scheduled garbage day at no additional cost, so a couch goes out with the regular collection rather than on a separate bulk sticker day.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Schenectady?+
The city does, through the Department of General Services and its Neighborhood Revitalization and Waste Collection office at 105 Jay Street Room 9 on 518-382-5144. Collection runs on a district schedule, so call that number to find out which of the five districts the address is in, and recycling runs as a single stream collection on the same route.Official guidance
What is happening with bulk waste collection in Schenectady?+
The Bulk Waste Pickup Program was suspended on March 20, 2026 for 90 days, after which the Council said it would be re-evaluated and either reinstated or the suspension extended. While it is suspended residents may put bulk items including furniture, mattresses, bed frames and chairs out on their regular garbage day at no additional cost, and appliances are unchanged because they are collected only on the red dates on the collection calendar.Official guidance
