Who picks up and removes dressers in San Francisco?

In San Francisco, Recology’s residential bulky-item program accepts approved furniture, including dressers, with up to ten approved items per appointment. Buildings with five units or fewer receive two no-added-charge curbside collections each year; in buildings with six or more units, each unit is eligible for one. Schedule the pickup first, then place the dresser at the curb by 6 a.m. on the appointment day with the Recology sign. Empty the dresser, secure its drawers, and check that it meets the program’s size and item rules. Indoor carrying is separate from this curbside program.

Prepare the dresser for curbside collection

Confirm that the dresser qualifies, empty it, secure the drawers, and check its size before scheduling. After the appointment is scheduled, set it at the curb near the residence by 6 a.m. on the scheduled day with the required Recology sign. The program is curbside, so it does not include carrying the dresser out from inside.

If the scheduled curbside option does not work

You can arrange another pickup for an accepted dresser when you can place it outdoors in an accessible location before collection. If you cannot move it outside yourself, choose a service that includes indoor carrying.

Where Dropcurb fits

Dropcurb can handle an accepted small, medium or large dresser that is already outside and accessible. For accepted leftovers already outside, Dropcurb handles loading, transport and disposal. A separate mirror is a separate item. You can book before moving the dresser outside, but it must be outside and accessible before pickup. Check current pickup dates during booking. If the dresser is inside and you need carry-out help, use a service that includes indoor carrying.
