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.

Bulky furniture and do it yourself demolition material
Accepted with preparation
The convenience centers take bulky construction and demolition material from a resident's own project, collected separately from household trash in heavier duty brown compactors and disposed of at construction and demolition landfills. The county names mattresses, box springs, couches, furniture, tables, carpet pieces, doors, drywall, glass, insulation, mirrors, plaster, sinks, sheetrock, tile, toilets and windows on the accepted list.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. No fee for a Knox County resident bringing their own bulky material from their own property, within one standard pickup load per household per day. Material from a business, a contractor or a commercial generator is not accepted at all, and a load above the daily limit is turned away.
When & how
Bring the load during center hours, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., and expect the operators to inspect it before it goes into the bulky compactor.
Get it ready
Cut carpet into small pieces, bag insulation, plaster and tile for easier disposal, and wear gloves when handling glass, mirrors, sinks, toilets or windows because the centers are self service. Leave block, brick, dirt, gravel, sand, stone and shingles at home, because those are refused as too heavy or too slow to unload, and leave greenwaste for a greenwaste facility. Pieces longer than five feet, railroad ties and anything from outside Knox County are also refused.
Couches, furniture and tables are named on the bulky material list that the convenience centers accept, so a household can self haul them within the daily load limit.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. No fee for a Knox County resident bringing the piece from their own property, within one standard pickup load per household per day. Furniture from a business, a rental property haul or a paid contractor job is not accepted.
When & how
Take the piece to a convenience center during posted hours, and expect the load to be inspected before it goes into the bulky compactor.
Get it ready
Keep the piece whole where it can be handled safely, keep it out of the garbage compactor, and keep any glass, mirror or table top protected so nobody is cut, because the centers are self service and the county asks users to wear gloves for that kind of material.
Load the vehicle with one standard pickup load per household per day and bring proof of Knox County residency, because a load from outside the county is refused. Separate the material before arrival: household garbage, recyclables, scrap metal, the brown bulky compactor, electronics and the tire pile all have their own place, and the operators inspect loads and turn away anything that does not belong. The centers are open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., closed Wednesday, Sunday and holidays.
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 Knox County household with household waste, bulky furniture, a mattress, demolition material from its own project, recyclables, scrap metal, electronics or up to the annual limit of tires.
Cost & conditions
No charge. No fee for a Knox County resident bringing their own residential waste and recycling, with recycling unlimited and non recyclable household waste limited to one standard pickup load per household per day. Business, rental property and contractor loads are refused.
Arrange it
Load one pickup load, bring proof of residency, and drive to the nearest of the seven centers during posted hours, separated by material type.
The daily load limit, the Wednesday and Sunday and holiday closures, the bulky material refusals including block, brick, dirt, gravel, sand, stone, shingles, railroad ties and pieces longer than five feet, and the refusal of refrigerant containing devices all apply.
Seven county convenience centers for household waste, bulky material, recycling, scrap metal, electronics and tires
Knox County Convenience Centers
Seven locations across Knox County, including 1950 West Governor John Sevier Highway, Knoxville, TN

Four centers have the thrift store electronics area, which takes only gently used items in good working condition, and the accepted battery and electronics lists can change, so the posted sign governs.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Knoxville.
How much does couch removal cost in Knoxville?+
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.
What bulky material will a Knox County center take?+
Box springs, mattresses, couches, furniture, tables, carpet pieces cut small, doors, drywall, sheetrock, glass pieces and sheets, insulation, mirrors, plaster, sinks, tile, toilets, windows and other non hazardous material, up to one standard pickup load per household per day from the resident's own property. Block, brick, dirt, gravel, sand, stone, shingles, railroad ties, greenwaste and pieces longer than five feet are refused, along with anything from a business, a contractor or outside Knox County.Official guidance
How much can I bring to a center in one day?+
One standard pickup load per household per day for non recyclable waste, and the county states that heaping loads and very large trailers will be turned away. Recycling is not limited, so a household may drop off as much recycling as it wishes. If a load is larger than the daily limit, the county directs the household to dispose of it the way a commercial generator does, which means a fee charging facility.Official guidance
Where do I take a couch in Knoxville?+
To one of the seven Knox County convenience centers, where couches, furniture and tables are on the bulky material list and there is no fee for a resident bringing their own material within one standard pickup load per day. The load is inspected and goes into the heavier duty brown compactor used for bulky demolition material. Furniture from a business, a rental property or a paid contractor job is refused, and the centers are closed Wednesday, Sunday and holidays.Official guidance
What does it cost to use the Knox County centers?+
Nothing for a Knox County resident bringing their own residential waste and recycling, because the county states there are no fees to use the convenience centers and that recycling is unlimited. Non recyclable household waste is limited to one standard pickup load per household per day. The routes that can cost money are a refrigerant containing device, which the centers refuse and which the county sends to a scrap metal company, to the city transfer station on Elm Street where a small fee applies, or to a clean out company, and household hazardous waste, whose facility the county says the city operates without publishing its fees.Official guidance
What will the Knox County centers not take?+
Business, contractor, rental property and commercial generator material, any load above one standard pickup per household per day, block, brick, dirt, gravel, sand, stone and shingles because they are too heavy or slow to unload, greenwaste which has to go to a greenwaste facility, boards or pieces longer than five feet, railroad ties, and waste from outside Knox County without a Knox plate or proof of residency. A device that contained refrigerant is refused too, and televisions are not recycled there because the county directs them into the blue trash containers.Official guidance
