What happens to your couch after pickup
Couches in good condition — no rips, stains, or structural damage — are donated to local charities like Habitat for Humanity ReStore, Goodwill, or Salvation Army. Couches that can't be donated are taken to licensed disposal facilities. Wood frames are sometimes separated for recycling, and metal components (springs, frames) are sent to scrap processors. Fabric and foam that can't be recycled are disposed of responsibly at permitted solid waste facilities.
Why Bloomington residents choose Dropcurb for couch removal
Bloomington's free monthly pickup still requires 14-21 day waits for service. Dropcurb's $79 same-day pickup eliminates that wait without the McLean County Landfill drive and loading.
