Matthews HOAs enforce fast — the town bulk program moves slow

Monthly pickup with 1-2 week waits does not help when your HOA gives you 7 days to clear a violation. Electronics and appliances with refrigerants are excluded from the town program entirely.

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 Matthews residents choose Dropcurb for couch removal

Matthews HOAs enforce strict curb appeal — a mattress sitting in the driveway for two weeks while you wait for the town pickup draws complaints fast. Dropcurb picks up same-day for $79, keeping your yard clean and your HOA board quiet.
