One dresser or a few pieces from different rooms, gone from the curb. Choose what goes, see the exact total and book by 2pm for same-day pickup. You don’t need to be home.
The desk you no longer use. The dresser that doesn’t fit the new layout. The chairs left over after a move. Choose the pieces you’re done with and give them a pickup day, without arranging a quote visit.
Different pieces. One clear total.
Add each furniture item and its quantity. See the combined price before you pay, with loading, transportation and disposal included.
Ready to have them gone?
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, or choose a future date at checkout. You arrange the move outside before pickup.
Know when they’ve been collected.
Get a text when your hauler is on the way and photos when the pickup is done. With everything outside and accessible, you don’t need to stay home.
You don’t need to guess how much space your furniture fills in a truck. Match each piece to the catalog, then add its quantity. Your total updates as you go.
Tables and chairs
Choose the table, then add each chair separately. Coffee tables, side tables and dining tables have their own options. A large or substantially heavy table has a different choice.
Dressers and mirrors
Match the dresser’s overall size. Add a separate dresser mirror as its own item if it is leaving too. Empty drawers and keep the belongings you want before moving the dresser outside.
Desks and bookshelves
Choose by construction, not height alone. A basic desk is different from a heavy desk with a substantial body. A tall, lightweight bookcase can still be a standard bookshelf. Empty it first.

The furniture goes outside. We take it from there.
Dropcurb handles loading and haul-away from an accessible outdoor spot. A little preparation makes it clear which pieces are going and how to reach them.
Book before moving items outside, then follow the readiness instructions in your confirmation. Contact us before booking if your building only allows a short pickup window; the booking is for a day, not an exact arrival time.
Your place. One easy pickup plan.
A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.
Count the furniture you want removed and empty drawers, shelves and cabinets. Add any other items to the booking instead of leaving an unlisted pile beside the furniture.

Arrange the move outside.
You handle indoor carrying and any disassembly needed to get the furniture through your home. Plan for doorways, interior stairs and building access before pickup day.

Show exactly what goes.
Use a permitted outdoor spot with a clear route to the furniture. Add a location photo and access notes. Keep the pickup items separate from furniture and belongings that are staying.
You’re in the loop. Until it’s gone.
Confirmation when you book. A heads-up before arrival. Photos when it’s done.
Furniture is not a city service. It leaves with the hauler serving the address, in a self-haul load at the Transfer Station, or through a donation outlet.
City cost & eligibility
The county publishes a municipal solid waste rate with a minimum charge but no furniture category, and the haulers publish no item prices. Confirm before the piece is moved.
When & how
Call the licensed hauler serving the address, or use the Transfer Station gate at 1881 Henton Road between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday, closed Sundays and the listed holidays.
Get it ready
Only garbage and trash belong in a trash container, so furniture stands beside the container on the day the hauler confirms. Keep containers behind the front yard setback and out of the street except on the collection day.
Keep trash in a covered container behind the setback
Trash containers need a watertight body and a tight-fitting cover that stays secured, and only garbage and trash go inside. Store containers behind the front yard setback, about 25 feet from the property line, except on collection day, and put a bag out only if it is strong enough to survive normal handling.
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.
Any Manhattan household, because curbside collection in the city is a private subscription rather than a city service.
Cost & conditions
Each hauler sets its own subscription price and any extra-item charge. Confirm the rate and what the subscription includes before you book.
Arrange it
Call the company serving your address from the city's list and ask whether your item is included in the regular service or needs a separate arrangement and day.
A routine subscription may not include every bulky item. Only garbage and trash belong in the container, and a third notice for a container or storage violation in a year brings a citation.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Furniture removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Manhattan.
How much does furniture removal cost in Manhattan?+
Choose the type and size of each piece to see its price. For example, a medium dresser is $79 as the first item or $29 as an additional item. Your total starts with the highest first-item price in your selection, then uses the additional-item price for every other item. Review the complete total and any applicable tax before payment.
Can I get same-day furniture pickup in Manhattan?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup and choose from the dates shown at checkout. Arrange to have the furniture outside according to your confirmation. You receive a text when your hauler is on the way and photos after collection.
Will you remove furniture from inside my apartment?+
Dropcurb starts outside. You arrange indoor carrying, including any interior stairs or elevator trip. We load and take away the furniture from an accessible outdoor location. Check your building’s rules and plan the route out before booking.
Can you take several different furniture items in one pickup?+
Yes. Add each piece and its quantity to one booking. A dining table and four chairs are five items; a separate mirror is not included with a dresser. You can mix eligible items from different rooms and review their combined total before paying.
Do I need to take furniture apart before pickup?+
You arrange any disassembly needed to move the furniture out of your home and into an accessible outdoor pickup spot. Dropcurb does not provide indoor disassembly or carrying. If you are unsure which catalog choice matches a dismantled or unusual piece, send a photo and ask before booking.
Will a Manhattan hauler take a couch with the regular trash?+
Not always. The city licenses private companies and the city itself collects no household trash, so ask the hauler serving your address whether a couch is included in the subscription or needs a separate arrangement, and confirm the size and set-out rules it wants.Official guidance
Does the City of Manhattan pick up trash from homes?+
No. The city licenses private trash companies and publishes the list; each household arranges service with the company that covers its address. The city handles container and storage rules, nuisance abatement and the annual cleanup week for yard material.Official guidance
