Choose each piece

A table and four chairs are five items.

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.

Ready for pickup

The furniture goes outside. We take it from there.

Dropcurb handles loading and haul-away from an accessible outdoor spot. A little preparation makes it clear which pieces are going and how to reach them.

Book before moving items outside, then follow the readiness instructions in your confirmation. Contact us before booking if your building only allows a short pickup window; the booking is for a day, not an exact arrival time.

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.

Text us about your setup
  1. Choose what leaves and what stays.

    Count the furniture you want removed and empty drawers, shelves and cabinets. Add any other items to the booking instead of leaving an unlisted pile beside the furniture.

  2. Arrange the move outside.

    You handle indoor carrying and any disassembly needed to get the furniture through your home. Plan for doorways, interior stairs and building access before pickup day.

  3. Show exactly what goes.

    Use a permitted outdoor spot with a clear route to the furniture. Add a location photo and access notes. Keep the pickup items separate from furniture and belongings that are staying.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Containers and bulk go out the evening before the zone day

Every address in Harrisburg is served once a week on its own weekday zone, and the containers go to the appointed collection location the evening before that day. The city provides the standard trash and recycling containers, extra recycling bins are free, and questions about a container, its placement or an account go to the sanitation office on 717-412-4320.

Residential trash and weekly bulk-item rulesCity of Harrisburg Department of Public Works page with the department's offices including Sanitation, the 1820 Paxton Street address, the phone 717-412-4320 and the PublicWorks@harrisburgpa.gov email, and the published documents for refuse collection and recycling services, street sweeping and leaf collection, the commercial recycling guide, yard waste collection guidelines, the roll off dumpster pricing sheet, and the notice that free paper leaf bags are available at the Public Works Center between 7:30 am and 4:00 pm

One bulk item a week, and extras draw a fine

The weekly bulk entitlement is one item, and the city states plainly that only one is collected each week while all others are subject to a fine and that bulk items must not be piled in front of the property. A mattress and bedspring set, a couch or a roll of carpeting therefore uses the whole allowance for that week.

A citywide holiday pushes the week back a day

Collection dates are updated through the year for city holidays and furlough days, and a citywide holiday delays collection by one day for the rest of that week, so a Friday route moves to Saturday. The published schedule is the authority for the week rather than the usual zone day.

Residential trash and weekly bulk-item rules

Keep glass, bags and problem paper out of the recycling bin

The city splits material carefully: glass windows, mirrors and ceramics, food and food-soiled paper, plastic bags, light bulbs and garden hoses belong in the trash bin, while plastics 1, 2 and 5, aluminum and steel cans, cartons and flattened corrugated boxes belong in the recycling bin. Glass bottles and jars are separated and taken to one of the ten drop off sites, and the city's recycler does not want office paper, junk mail or shredded paper, which go in the trash unless the household arranges a separate collection.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Furniture removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Harrisburg.

How much does furniture removal cost in Harrisburg?

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 Harrisburg?

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.

How much furniture can I set out in Harrisburg each week?

The household allowance is one bulk item each week, including a piece of furniture. Do not stack several pieces outside: the city says only one will be collected and additional items may result in a fine.

Official guidance

When should a Harrisburg furniture item go outside?

Use the appointed collection location the evening before your assigned day. Enter your address in the city’s Recycle Coach lookup; citywide holidays move collection one day later for the rest of that week.

Official guidance

Where can I donate usable furniture in Harrisburg?

Harrisburg Habitat ReStore considers gently used furniture at 800 Paxton Street. Donations are by appointment Tuesday-Saturday. Call 717-480-5083 to confirm your piece and appointment before loading it.

Official guidance

Can Harrisburg ReStore collect furniture from my home?

The ReStore says pickup may be available for larger donations. Ask it to approve the item, access and date first; a usable piece is a donation candidate, while a damaged item is not automatically accepted.

Official guidance

What if I have several damaged furniture pieces to remove in Harrisburg?

The city’s weekly one-item allowance may take several collection weeks. Dirty Dog Hauling lists furniture removal in Harrisburg and offers photo or telephone quotes. Confirm the complete furniture list, access and price when arranging service.
