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.

Furniture goes out on the city Call-2-Haul bulky collection. A residential household can schedule two curbside pickups or self-hauls a year with the cost already in its rates.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Tacoma residential Solid Waste customers, whose name is on the utility bill, may schedule two curbside pickups or self-hauls a year with the cost already built into residential rates. Multifamily and commercial customers pay a Call-2-Haul fee.
When & how
Call the city on (253) 573-2468 to schedule the pickup, then set the items at the front curb by 7 a.m. on the appointment day.
Get it ready
Count each piece against the three large item limit, put out only the items disclosed when the collection was booked, and keep the piece clear of vehicles, buildings, power lines and trees.
Place all items at the front curb by 7 a.m. on the appointment day, keep them clear of vehicles, buildings, power lines and trees, and put out only the items disclosed when the collection was scheduled. Call at least one business day ahead to cancel or change the appointment, and allow the whole business day because two trucks may be assigned.
One pickup covers up to three large items and up to fifteen boxes or bags of smaller items, and every bag or box has to be light enough for one person to lift. A set out over that limit counts as a double pickup, which uses up the household's yearly allowance.
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.

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.
