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.

The furniture goes outside. We take it from there.

Furniture is collected by appointment on the city bulk route, and a couch, a dining table or a single chair each carry their own published price.
City cost & eligibility
$15 per large furniture item such as a couch or dining table, with a single chair or end table charged at the lower small furniture rate and a hauling fee for each haul of up to two cubic yards. Owner-occupied or renter-occupied City of Troy residential property with an appointment booked through the Public Works dispatcher. Commercial rental properties, tax exempt properties and not-for-profit agencies cannot use the city bulk service.
When & how
Call the Public Works dispatcher at 518-270-4579 or file the online request, which requires a phone number, and wait for a confirmed date before putting anything out. Items may not be placed at the curb before 6 p.m. the night before the confirmed pickup.
Get it ready
Keep the pile to household items and count the pieces before the call, because the bill prices each item and adds a hauling charge for every haul of up to two cubic yards. A washer and dryer placed side by side count as one haul. An unscheduled pile at the curb brings a removal charge and a littering penalty.
Nothing bulky goes out without a confirmed appointment
Every bulk item has to be scheduled with the Public Works dispatcher at 518-270-4579 or through the city's online request form, which requires a phone number. If a pile appears at the curb or in the alley without a request, the property owner receives a removal charge and a penalty under the city littering code.
Set out the night before the confirmed date, not earlier
Items may not be placed at the curb until after 6 p.m. the night before the confirmed pickup date, and household garbage follows a similar window, out after 7 p.m. the night before or before 6 a.m. on the collection day. Garbage has to be in the city-provided water-tight container rather than in a bag, and recyclables go out in the city blue container in the same window.
The bill charges each individual item on the published pricing sheet and adds a hauling fee for every haul removed, where one haul is up to two cubic yards no matter the dimensions. Two appliances side by side count as one haul, so grouping the pieces keeps the hauling part of the bill down. Bills go to the property owner and are due 30 days from the bill date, and billing questions go to the Office of General Services at 518-279-7141.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Furniture removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Troy NY.
How much does furniture removal cost in Troy NY?+
Choose the type and size of each piece to see its price. For example, a medium dresser is $79 as the first item or $29 as an additional item. Your total starts with the highest first-item price in your selection, then uses the additional-item price for every other item. Review the complete total and any applicable tax before payment.
Can I get same-day furniture pickup in Troy NY?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup and choose from the dates shown at checkout. Arrange to have the furniture outside according to your confirmation. You receive a text when your hauler is on the way and photos after collection.
Will you remove furniture from inside my apartment?+
Dropcurb starts outside. You arrange indoor carrying, including any interior stairs or elevator trip. We load and take away the furniture from an accessible outdoor location. Check your building’s rules and plan the route out before booking.
Can you take several different furniture items in one pickup?+
Yes. Add each piece and its quantity to one booking. A dining table and four chairs are five items; a separate mirror is not included with a dresser. You can mix eligible items from different rooms and review their combined total before paying.
Do I need to take furniture apart before pickup?+
You arrange any disassembly needed to move the furniture out of your home and into an accessible outdoor pickup spot. Dropcurb does not provide indoor disassembly or carrying. If you are unsure which catalog choice matches a dismantled or unusual piece, send a photo and ask before booking.
Will Troy pick up a couch by appointment?+
Yes. Furniture is one of the oversized items the city collects on its bulk route, but a pickup has to be scheduled with the Public Works dispatcher at 518-270-4579 before anything is set out. The bill prices the couch as a large furniture item and adds a hauling fee for each haul of up to two cubic yards.Official guidance
Who collects trash and recycling in Troy?+
The Sanitation division of the city Department of Public Works does. It collects garbage and recyclables weekly from about 17,000 residential households and roughly 3,000 business properties, and it also runs the bulk trash, yard waste and recycling programmes. Collection day is set by address, so use the city route maps or call the Public Works dispatcher at 518-270-4579.Official guidance
