A few pieces, one pickup

Your room has changed. The old furniture can go.

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.

Choose each piece

A table and four chairs are five items.

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.

Ready for pickup

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.

Text us about your setup
  1. Choose what leaves and what stays.

    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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Furniture removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Brooklyn.

How much does furniture removal cost in Brooklyn?

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 Brooklyn?

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 NYC collect an old couch in Brooklyn?

Yes, residential couches can use DSNY bulk collection. Use your address’s trash-only collection day for a non-recyclable sofa. Separate a pull-out sofa’s metal frame for recycling. Ordinary bulk pickup follows the route schedule; it is not an appointment service.Official guidance

Does a bed frame go out on the same day as a mattress?

Not always. NYC puts wood bed frames with trash, but mostly metal or plastic frames with recycling. Mattresses and box springs use bulk-trash collection and need sealed bags. Bundle frame pieces securely, no larger than 2 by 4 feet.Official guidance

Does NYC charge for residential bulk collection?

NYC offers eligible residential bulk-item collection at no charge. The item must qualify and follow the address’s collection and preparation rules. Commercial waste, contractor debris and covered electronics do not belong on the ordinary residential bulk route.Official guidance

Is there a public dump in Brooklyn for bulky items?

No. NYC311 says there are no public dumps in New York City, and special-waste drop-off sites do not accept bulky furniture. Use eligible city collection, an appropriate private service or a donation organization that has confirmed it accepts the item.Official guidance
