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.
Add each furniture item and its quantity. See the combined price before you pay, with loading, transportation and disposal included.
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.

Metal items and the larger household pieces have to be scheduled with Public Works before they go to the curb, and the price depends on the item.
City cost & eligibility
The city prices bulky collection by item: furniture pieces such as love seats, couches, sectionals, kitchen tables and up to six chairs are $10 each, refrigerators, freezers, mattresses and box springs are $16 each, and stoves, washers, dryers, water coolers, metal and televisions are listed at no charge, with each air conditioner past the yearly limit at $16. Confirm your specific load on 401-728-0500 ext. 233.
When & how
Call Public Works on 401-728-0500 ext. 233 and book the collection before the item goes outside. Furniture is limited to three pieces a week.
Get it ready
Describe each piece when you call, keep the load inside the three-piece weekly limit, and keep the items clear of the barrels and the street. Construction material, propane tanks and automobile parts never go out with a scheduled bulky pickup.
Furniture is collected on the scheduled route, three pieces a week, with a published charge for love seats, couches, sectionals, kitchen tables and up to six chairs, and the Transfer Station takes furniture free by appointment within a three-piece limit.
City cost & eligibility
From $10 for the published scheduled charge of $10 each for love seats, couches, sectional couches up to three pieces, kitchen tables and up to six chairs, with other furniture scheduled through the same three-piece weekly appointment. Pawtucket properties served by city collection, scheduled on 401-728-0500 ext. 233, or a resident bringing furniture to the Transfer Station appointment route, which lists furniture at no charge within a three-piece limit.
When & how
Call Public Works to book the collection, then put out no more than three pieces in the week you booked. The Transfer Station furniture appointment is booked and paid through the city's Viewpoint account.
Get it ready
Take loose cushions and drawers out where you can, keep the piece manageable for two people, and keep it clear of the barrels and the street. Do not put furniture in the barrel, because the city collects it only as a scheduled bulky item.
Metal items, furniture, mattresses, box springs, appliances and televisions are only collected once they are scheduled with Public Works on 401-728-0500 ext. 233. Furniture is limited to three pieces a week, the larger pieces carry a published price, and everything else that will not fit a barrel can be taken to the Transfer Station with proof of Pawtucket residency.
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.

A Pawtucket resident with household bags, a rug, yard waste, cardboard, tires, white metal, an air conditioner, a mattress, propane or motor oil.

Closed on holidays and during parking bans, and construction and commercial waste are refused outright, so a project load must go to the state campus instead.
Pawtucket residents have two self-haul routes and one state route. The Transfer Station at 240 Grotto Avenue takes household bags, rugs, yard waste, cardboard, tires, white metal, air conditioners, mattresses, propane and motor oil from residents who show a city-address license, and it books bulky items, refrigerators and freezers, furniture, televisions and metal by appointment, but it refuses construction and commercial waste. A recyclable mattress or box spring can also be dropped free at the city's monthly event on the first Saturday, in the lot across from City Hall, or free at Tuff Stuff Recycling on Walcott Street, and electronics go to that event or to Green Tech Assets on Central Avenue. Construction material has no city route at all, so it goes to the state resource recovery campus on Shun Pike in Johnston, where the city prints a construction line and fees may apply.

Furniture removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Pawtucket.
How much does furniture removal cost in Pawtucket?+
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 Pawtucket?+
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.
