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 named among the heavy items the litter truck takes on the regular trash day, so no separate appointment is needed.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Galveston residential accounts, where every residential address is required to carry city trash service, for furniture set at the curb or in the alley beside the cart on the regular collection day.
When & how
Put the furniture out by 7 AM on the regular collection day for the area, which runs Monday for the west end to 7 1/2 Mile Road, Tuesday to the east side of 51st Street, Wednesday to the east side of 31st Street, and Thursday to the East End. Carts and material may go out no earlier than 5 p.m. the day before.
Get it ready
Stack the piece beside the cart rather than in the travel lane, keep it clear of gas meters and mailboxes, and leave cushions and glass tops off so the litter crew can lift the frame.
Galveston splits its collection week by area: Monday serves the west end of the island to 7 1/2 Mile Road, Tuesday runs from 7 1/2 Mile Road to the east side of 51st Street, Wednesday covers the west side of 51st Street to the east side of 31st Street, and Thursday runs from the west side of 31st Street to the East End. Carts and materials need to be at the curb no later than 7 AM on the collection day, the cart may go out no earlier than 5 p.m. the day before, and it comes back to its storage space by 10 p.m. on the day of pickup. Questions and cart requests go to Sanitation on 409-797-3630.
Bulk rides the regular truck, and freon units need a red tag first
Heavy items such as appliances, furniture and large piles of tree limbs and brush are collected on the regularly scheduled trash day, set at the curb or in the alley next to the trash cart, and a litter truck is sent through for them rather than a separate appointment. Freon appliances are the exception that stops the truck: the city requires the freon to be removed and tagged by a certified technician and the appliance to be red-tagged before Sanitation will remove it, so the work has to be arranged first and the tag has to be on the unit when it goes out.
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.
City of Galveston Public Works Sanitation Division
Use the weekly bulk pickup with the trash cart
A Galveston household with furniture, a mattress, an appliance or a large pile of limbs and brush that can go beside the cart on the collection day.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Galveston residential accounts, which must carry city trash service, with the bulk material set at the curb or in the alley next to the cart on the regular collection day.
Arrange it
Put the material out by 7 AM on the collection day for the area, and keep the cart itself off the curb until after 5 p.m. the previous day.
Freon appliances need certified removal and a red tag before collection, and paint, gasoline, kerosene, concrete, freon and tires are refused at the transfer station, so they cannot simply be added to a bulk pile.
City of Galveston Public Works Sanitation Division
Use the free April citywide cleanup
A Galveston household timing a cleanout to the spring cleanup so furniture, mattresses, couches and bagged yard debris leave at no charge.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Galveston residents inside the city, for the free bulk pickup dates by area and the free transfer station access from April 15 to 30 with a current utility bill and photo ID.
Arrange it
Put the items out on the published cleanup date for the section, or use the free transfer station access window, and check the shred day and the oil and tire drop-off dates at the recycle center.
The cleanup runs one month a year rather than all year, the dates are tied to the part of the island, and proof of residency is required for the free access and the tire drop-off.

How much does couch removal cost in Galveston?+
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.
