You have decided what is going. Now give those bags and boxes a pickup day, with a price you can see before anyone arrives.
Book the unwanted bags and boxes left after packing. Choose an available pickup day before you hand back the keys, and arrange to have them outside.
You do not need a whole house of junk. Select the bags, boxes and larger items you actually have. Your combined price is shown online.
When the next collection does not fit your plans, choose a Dropcurb pickup day. Updates keep you informed, and completion photos show when the booked items are gone.
A clear count. An exact price.
A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.
Count each trash bag or filled household box. Books and media go by the box. Clothes, bedding and shoes go by the filled bag. Toys packed together have a Box of toys choice. Ask us about unusually heavy or oversized bags and boxes first.
Empty cardboard is a different choice: choose single empty boxes or tied bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Compacted bales have their own weight-based choices and require loading-dock access. A Storage bin choice covers the empty bin itself; ask us to confirm the contents if they are going too.
Add the actual larger item alongside your bags and boxes, such as a sofa, chair or mattress. It has its own price and preparation. Keep construction materials and items needing special handling out of ordinary household bags.

The local disposal guide
Bulk junk removal in Oak Park: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
A couch, chair, love seat or one section of a sectional is a bulk item in Oak Park, which means two pink refuse stickers and a place in the one bulk item collected each week. The Village's own example list covers sofas alongside bed frames, mattresses and bicycles.
Oak Park prices overflow with pink stickers: one sticker for a bag or rigid container of 30 gallons or less, two for anything larger, so a bulk item, a carpet roll or an oversized container all cost two stickers. One bulk item is collected each week and the general guideline caps it at 50 pounds, with yard waste in paper bags or containers up to 32 gallons.
The handoff matters
The Village's hauler requires one pink refuse sticker for each bag or rigid container of 30 gallons or less and two pink stickers for any item over 30 gallons, which is why a bulk item costs two stickers. Stickers are sold for 4.00 each at locations including Village Hall at 123 Madison Street, and one bulk item is collected each week with a general guideline of 50 pounds.
