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.

Your place. One easy pickup plan.
A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.
Furniture is bulky material at the curb inside the same three cubic yard allowance, and the hauler asks for 48 hours notice so the collection can be flagged before the truck arrives.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. The three cubic yard curbside allowance is included in the city refuse utility, and the resident is only billed when a load exceeds it. Extra material can also be bagged or placed in another can as long as the city container is full.
When & how
Give the hauler 48 hours notice at 1-800-828-8171, then set the furniture out with the containers on the regular collection day, no earlier than 6 p.m. the day before.
Get it ready
Keep the piece out of the street and leave the containers at least three feet apart with the wheels toward the house. Tie or cover anything loose so it does not scatter, and keep refused material such as paint, oil and liquids out of the pile.
Out after 6 p.m. the night before, in by 6 p.m. the day after
Nothing goes to the curb before 6 p.m. on the day before the scheduled pickup, and containers come back in no later than 6 p.m. the day after. Containers stay out of the street, sit at least three feet apart, and face the house with the wheels toward it.
Up to three cubic yards of material may be placed at the curb with the city containers at no extra charge, and anything beyond that amount is removed and charged to the resident. Extra material can be bagged or placed in another can while the city container is already full, and all household refuse has to be bagged inside the container.
Mattresses, furniture and other bulky pieces need the hauler told by phone or through its online service form at least 48 hours before the regular collection. The hauler also takes six cans or bags of ordinary trash a week, each weighing no more than 50 pounds.
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.
Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Lima.
How much does couch removal cost in Lima?+
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.

Tell Rumpke at least 48 hours before your regular collection day, then put the couch at the curb with your containers. Furniture counts inside the three cubic yards of bulky material that the city refuse utility covers at no extra charge, and a larger load is removed and billed to the resident.Official guidance
