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.

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.

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 and other items too large for a city cart are collected from the curb on your regular collection day by the crane truck, with nothing to schedule and no per item invoice. A couch, a recliner, a dresser or a dining table all leave the same way.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. City collection addresses on the weekly route, where bulky items are part of the service funded through the annual tax assessment, so a piece set out on collection day is not billed per item.
When & how
Put the piece behind the curb no more than 24 hours before your collection day, in an open area the crane truck can reach.
Get it ready
Keep the piece away from parked vehicles, low hanging limbs, power lines, fire hydrants and the cart set-out spot, and make sure nothing is stacked on top of it. The city asks that large items sit in the open rather than against a fence, hedge or building where the arm cannot reach.
Carts and bags go out no later than 7 a.m. on your collection day, as early as dusk the night before, and come back in by 8 p.m. that evening. Anything too large for a cart, from a couch to a water heater, goes behind the curb no more than 24 hours before the same collection day, in an open spot the crane truck can reach. Keep the spot clear of parked vehicles, low hanging limbs, power lines and fire hydrants, remove the doors from appliances before they go out, and keep sidewalks, storm drains and utility covers clear.
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 Fairfax Public Works refuse and recycling collection, with the Fairfax County recycling and disposal centers
Set bulky items out with your city collection
A city household with a couch, a mattress, an appliance or a pile of household material that will not fit in a cart, and no need to drive anywhere.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Single-family homes, duplexes and townhomes on the city collection route, where the bulky item service is funded through the annual tax assessment rather than billed per piece.
Arrange it
Put the item behind the curb no more than 24 hours before your regular collection day, in the open where the crane truck can reach it, and leave it there until the crew has been by.
Electronics, batteries, paint, chemicals, tires and anything a contractor generated are outside this route, and the city does not collect on ten holidays, so a collection day that lands on a holiday moves to the next day.
City of Fairfax Public Works refuse and recycling collection, with the Fairfax County recycling and disposal centers
Haul it to the county drop-off centers
A city household that would rather not wait for the truck, has electronics or hazardous waste to clear out, or has a load bigger than the curb service handles.
Cost & conditions
From $39 for the minimum charge on a bulk or unbagged residential load at the I-66 Transfer Station, with mixed waste at $98 per ton, bagged trash at $21 for one to five bags or $28 for six to ten bags, and flat per item charges of $17 for a sofa, love seat, recliner, chair, dresser, desk, dining table, carpet or mattress and box spring, $15 for an appliance that needs refrigerant or capacitor removal, $11 for a small single item and $14 per passenger tire. Residential loads at the county centers, which the city directs its residents to with proof of a city address. The published residential schedule is written for county households, and separated recyclables, household electronics and household hazardous waste are taken free of charge at the same sites.
Arrange it
Load the car or truck, bring an ID or utility bill with the city address, and follow the site lanes: recyclables and food scraps in their own area, electronics and hazardous waste at their station, and weighed material through the scales.
The electronics and hazardous waste area at I-66 is closed on Wednesday, tires are capped at ten passenger or light truck tires per household, brick, concrete, dirt and rock are limited to small daily amounts and priced higher than mixed bulk, and commercial hazardous waste and commercial drop-off are refused.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Fairfax.
How much does couch removal cost in Fairfax?+
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 the city pick up a couch from the curb in Fairfax?+
Yes. A couch is named on the city list of items too large for a waste container, and it is collected from behind the curb on your regular collection day with the crane truck. Set it out no more than 24 hours before that day and keep it clear of parked vehicles, low hanging limbs, power lines and fire hydrants. The refuse and recycling line at 703-385-7837 answers address specific questions.Official guidance
