Mattress Removal

View →
$99first item · +$30 each more

Mattress removal in Madison starts at $79 with Dropcurb, and you can book online in about 60 seconds, leave the item at the curb, and get same-day pickup when spots are open. Mattress removal demand spikes in Madison during UW-Madison move-out windows in May and August, when thousands of leases turn over and landlords in neighborhoods like Langdon Street and Near East Side need units cleared fast. Madison's Streets Division does offer large-item collection, but you still need a work order and the city states a 5-10 business day timeline, plus properties with more than 8 units are excluded from city large-item service in 2026. That gap is exactly where mattress removal through Dropcurb helps: transparent checkout, no in-home estimate, and photo confirmation after pickup. Competitor pages also run higher or add friction, with LoadUp advertising mattress removal in Madison starting at $89 and Two Men and a Junk Truck listing $149 examples for a mattress. If you need mattress removal in Madison today, Dropcurb is the faster, lower-friction option.

Couch Removal

View →
$99first item · +$28 each more

Couch removal in Madison starts at $79 with Dropcurb, and you can book online in about 60 seconds, set your sofa curbside, and get same-day pickup when routes are open. Couch removal demand in Madison spikes during UW lease turnover in May and August, especially around Langdon Street, Tenney-Lapham, and the Near East Side where apartment turns happen fast. The City of Madison does allow large-item pickup for couches, but most addresses still need a Streets Division work order and the published timeline is typically 5-10 business days. The city also states properties with more than 8 units are excluded from large-item collection, which leaves many larger apartment buildings needing private couch removal options. LoadUp advertises Madison furniture and couch pickup starting around $75, but pricing can rise based on item count and access, while 1-800-GOT-JUNK still uses truck-volume estimates after arrival. Dropcurb keeps couch removal simple in Madison with a locked upfront price, no home entry, and photo-confirmed completion once the couch removal job is done.

Furniture Removal

$79first item · +$29 each more

Furniture removal in Madison starts at $79 with Dropcurb, and you can book online in about 60 seconds, leave items at the curb, and get same-day pickup when route capacity is open. Furniture removal demand in Madison spikes during UW-Madison lease turnover, with roughly 47,000 students cycling through move-outs in late spring and August across Langdon Street, Tenney-Lapham, and the Near East Side. The City of Madison requires a large-item work order for most furniture pickups, and standard timing is typically 5-10 business days. The city also ended large-item collection for properties with more than 8 units, which leaves many apartment buildings and landlords needing private furniture removal. Dropcurb solves that gap with upfront checkout pricing, no in-home estimate, and photo-confirmed completion. Competitor pricing is often higher or less predictable, with LoadUp listing furniture removal in Madison starting at $75 and Two Men and a Junk Truck publishing $149 examples for dresser and mattress-class pickups. If you need fast furniture removal in Madison, Dropcurb keeps furniture removal simple and transparent from booking to pickup.

Appliance Recycling

View →
$134first item · +$84 each more

Appliance recycling in Madison starts at $104 with Dropcurb (all-in), and you can book online in about 60 seconds, set the unit curbside, and skip appointment windows. Appliance recycling demand in Madison spikes during UW lease turnover and summer move cycles, especially in neighborhoods like Tenney-Lapham, Langdon Street, and the Near East Side where old fridges and laundry units pile up fast between tenants. The City of Madison requires a Streets Division work order for large items and appliances, and city guidance says properties with more than 8 units are excluded from large-item collection, which leaves many apartment buildings needing private appliance recycling options. City programs can be great, but they still require residents to stage items correctly and often self-haul to drop-off facilities when service limits apply. Dropcurb keeps appliance recycling simple in Madison with same-day curbside pickup, no home entry, and upfront pricing before checkout. Two Men and a Junk Truck commonly lists $199 for refrigerator-class pickups in Madison, while Dropcurb starts at $104 for appliance recycling with transparent online booking.

TV Removal

$99first item · +$39 each more

Same-day TV pickup and certified recycling from $99.

Construction Debris Removal

View →
$109first item · +$59 each more

Construction debris removal in Madison starts at $109 with Dropcurb, and you can book online in about 60 seconds, set bagged or neatly stacked material at the curb, and get same-day pickup when route capacity is open. Construction debris removal demand in Madison spikes during UW lease turnover and kitchen, bath, and flooring refreshes in neighborhoods like Tenney-Lapham, Near East Side, and Williamson-Marquette, where owners and landlords need units reset quickly between tenants. Madison's Streets guidance is strict for this category: building material collection is limited to minor owner projects, pickup is capped at roughly 240 pounds, and the city does not accept shingles, brick, concrete, or contractor-generated project debris in standard large-item workflows. For larger loads, Dane County's C&D program asks for loads with at least 50% recyclable material like clean wood, metal, cardboard, or aggregate, which means extra sorting and drop-off time before disposal. Dropcurb closes that municipal gap with direct online checkout, no in-home estimate, and curbside-only service. Competitor pages like LoadUp advertise construction debris removal in Madison starting at $89, but they route work through independent contractor marketplaces and final pricing can change with volume and location. If you need construction debris removal in Madison today, Dropcurb keeps construction debris removal simple, predictable, and fast.

E-Waste Disposal

$99first item · +$39 each more

TVs, monitors, computers. Madison's drop-off sites accept electronics with recycling fees covered by your water bill. But hauling a 65-inch TV to a drop-off site isn't fun. We pick up from your curb instead.

Exercise Equipment Removal

$159first item · +$85 each more

Treadmills, ellipticals, weight benches from Shorewood Hills and Williamson-Marquette homes. Too heavy for the city work order system to prioritize quickly — same-day curbside pickup.

Bulk Junk Removal

View →
$79first item · +$29 each more

Garage cleanouts, move-out piles, post-renovation debris. Properties over 8 units lost city service in 2026 — Dropcurb fills the gap. Per-item pricing beats Two Men's $149-$199 rates for smaller loads.

Madison's bulk pickup has limits — we don't

Madison's large item pickup is free for properties with 1-8 residential units — submit a work order through the Streets Division and expect 5-10 business days. The $25 fee was eliminated; costs are now covered by the Resource Recovery Special Charge on your monthly water bill. Properties over 8 units lost city large item service in 2026 and must use private haulers. City drop-off sites accept large items and appliances with recycling fees covered by the Resource Recovery charge. Dane County Rodefeld Landfill (7102 Maahic Way) is open Mon-Fri 6:30 AM-3:15 PM, Sat 8 AM-10:45 AM. Two Men and a Junk Truck charges $149 for a single item like a dresser or mattress, $199 for a table with chairs or refrigerator. LoadUp starts at $79 per item.
