Book by 2pm for same-day pickup.

Choose items or browse the full catalog.

A sofa ready outside an open doorway, with an empty room behind it and a clear path alongside.
Once it’s outside, we handle the loading and haul-away.

Ready for it to go

The old sofa can stop holding up your plans.

You know it needs to go. The price, the pickup day and knowing it is done should be easy to settle, too.

A replacement is on the way.

Give the old couch its own pickup day. Check what your retailer will remove, then book the part you still need handled.

The move has enough moving parts.

See the price before you book and choose from the available dates. One less job to arrange before handing back the keys.

You are ready for the space back.

You do not need a whole room to clear. Book the sofa, recliner or sectional that needs to go, and follow the pickup through updates and photos.

The right sofa. The right price.

Count the sections, not the cushions.

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.

Three structural sectional modules slightly separated, with all cushions remaining on their bases.
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.

Our pickup starts at an accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the trip through your home, down interior stairs or out of the building before the pickup.

Book by 2pm at the pickup address for same-day pickup, using the dates shown at checkout. A pickup day is not an exact appointment time. If your building allows only a short access window, contact us before booking.

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.

Couch removal in Altoona: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.

Reviewed · Sources below

Couches, chairs and household furniture

Special rules apply

Altoona publishes no curbside bulk item program for furniture, and the IRC recycling facility is a drop-off for recyclables and compost rather than household bulky waste.

City cost & eligibility
No municipal furniture rate is published, so confirm the current route and any charge with the Intermunicipal Relations Committee or the collection provider before setting furniture out.
When & how
Call the Intermunicipal Relations Committee at 814-942-7472, or the collection provider on the address's account, before placing furniture at the curb.
Get it ready
Trash has to be in containers with lidded bins and may go to the curb no earlier than 6pm the evening before collection, so a loose pile of furniture is not the published curbside method. Keep furniture out of the recycling bin.

For your Dropcurb pickup

City of Altoona and the Intermunicipal Relations Committee

Collection provider route for large items

A residence that must have garbage collection and needs a large item that neither the city nor the IRC facility publishes as an accepted drop-off.

Cost & conditions
No municipal large item rate is published, so confirm the route and any charge with the collection provider on the account or with the Intermunicipal Relations Committee.
Arrange it
Call the provider or the Intermunicipal Relations Committee at 814-942-7472 before the item is set out.

Mattresses, tires and construction material are refused at the IRC facility, so those items need a confirmed destination instead of a trip to Buckhorn.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Altoona residents haul recyclable material to the IRC facility on Blacksnake Road in Dysart, where televisions, computers and metal appliances are free, Freon containing appliances carry a per item fee, and paint, lumber, mattresses and tires are refused. Yard material can also be dropped there, and the curbside recycling collection includes yard waste for the municipalities the IRC serves.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Altoona.

How much does couch removal cost in Altoona?

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.

Does Altoona collect furniture at the curb?

The City requires every residence to have garbage and recyclable collection and publishes a container rule rather than a bulky item program, so loose furniture is not a published curbside service. Call the Intermunicipal Relations Committee at 814-942-7472 or the collection provider to confirm the current route and any charge before setting furniture out.Official guidance

What does the Altoona recycling facility refuse?

The IRC recycling and compost facility does not accept paint, lumber, mattresses or tires, and it also refuses vacuum cleaners, shop vacs, plastic house fans and mostly plastic electronics. Those items need a confirmed route with the collection provider or the Intermunicipal Relations Committee before they are set out or loaded.Official guidance
