A loveseat, a sleeper and a sectional can look similar in a photo. Match the shape and features so your online price covers what is actually going.
This example has three structural sections. The cushions do not add to the count.
A straight sofa or loveseat
Choose Standard sofa for fixed seats with no pull-out bed or reclining mechanism. One whole sofa is one item.
A sectional
Count its structural sections, not the loose cushions. Choose the piece count, then check for a sleeper or reclining feature. One sectional booking covers the configuration you select.
A pull-out bed or reclining seats
Choose Sleeper sofa or Reclining sofa for those mechanisms. A single reclining chair has its own Recliner choice. All sofa types also includes futons and sofas with a chaise.

Furniture is collected on the city's Friday bulky route, one item per household per week, by appointment only.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. The city publishes no per-item fee for the Friday bulky and furniture collection. The fees it does publish are the mattress charge per piece and the recycling sticker for appliances and metal items, so the bulky appointment itself carries no published price.
When & how
Call 401-435-7701 to book the appointment by noon on Thursday, then leave the piece at the curb after 3 p.m. the same day for the Friday collection.
Get it ready
One item per household per week, at the curb the night before collection and clear of the rubbish cart, recycling cart and yard waste barrels. Cut rugs and carpeting to four-foot lengths and roll and tie them so they count as a bulky item rather than loose material.
Curb by 6 a.m., never before 3 p.m. the day before
Rubbish, recycling and yard debris go at the curb by 6 a.m. on the collection day and may not be out before 3 p.m. the day before. Everything goes inside the city cart, and anything left outside the cart is not collected and can draw a daily fine. Carts sit with the wheels and handle toward the curb and about three feet from yard waste barrels and recycling carts.
Book the Thursday deadline, then set out for Friday
The Friday bulky collection runs for the whole city by appointment, one item per household per week. Schedule it on 401-435-7701 before noon on Thursday and put the item at the curb after 3 p.m. that afternoon. A bulky item set out without an appointment, or rubbish piled at the curb, can lead to a daily fine.
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.
City of East Providence Refuse and Recycling Division with Rhode Island Resource Recovery
Book the Friday bulky collection
An East Providence household with a piece of furniture or another large item that will not fit in the city cart and is not on the mattress or appliance route.
Cost & conditions
No charge. The city publishes no per-item fee for the Friday bulky collection, which is limited to one item per household per week. Its priced routes are the mattress schedule and the recycling sticker for appliances and metal items.
Arrange it
Call 401-435-7701, option 2, before noon on Thursday, then put the item at the curb after 3 p.m. that day.
One item per household each week, appointment only, and construction, demolition and remodelling material is never accepted. An unscheduled item at the curb can draw a daily fine, so the appointment comes first.
A household with a couch, chair or other piece that is still in usable condition.
Cost & conditions
No charge. The city points residents at donation rather than disposal for furniture that is still usable and names the Furniture Bank of Rhode Island on 401-831-5511 along with other charitable organisations, so the route is a donation rather than a paid service.
Arrange it
Call the Furniture Bank of Rhode Island or another charity to ask whether it will take the piece, and arrange the handover before the Friday bulky appointment is booked.
These are independent charities rather than city services, and each sets its own condition standards and pickup arrangements, so confirm acceptance before the item leaves the house.
The self-haul routes for an East Providence address are the city yard and the state campus. At 60 Commercial Way the Department of Public Works takes e-waste, scrap metal, propane tanks, auto batteries, antifreeze, used motor oil, cooking oil, rigid plastic and used books Monday to Friday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., and the city publishes no rate for those drop-offs. The Resource Recovery campus in Johnston is where a mattress that is not torn or damaged goes free year-round, and its residential recycling area and small vehicle transfer station handle special and bulky drop-offs, while household hazardous waste is a free appointment-only Eco-Depot service. The campus brings material in Monday to Friday 6 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. and Saturday 6 a.m. to noon, and the operator publishes a separate accepted-materials and pricing list, so confirm the gate price before a load of anything other than bedding leaves the house. Construction and demolition debris has no municipal route at all and goes to the Johnston landfill or a private collector.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Couch removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in East Providence.
How much does couch removal cost in East Providence?+
A standard sofa is $79 as the first item and $29 additional. Sectionals, sleepers and reclining sofas have their own choices. Select everything that is going to see the combined price before booking. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; any applicable sales tax appears before payment.
Can you pick up my couch today?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the couch outside and accessible according to your confirmation. We send pickup updates and photos when it is done; the booking is for a day rather than an exact arrival time.
How do I book a sectional for removal?+
Open Sectional in the sofa choices, count its structural sections, and select any sleeper or reclining feature. Count the sections with their own bases, not loose cushions. The matching catalog choice covers one complete sectional of that configuration. Text a photo before booking if you are unsure.
Will you carry my couch out of my apartment?+
Dropcurb starts outside. Arrange for the sofa to be moved through the apartment and down interior stairs before pickup. We load and haul it away from an accessible outdoor spot. Arrange any dismantling needed to get it outside beforehand.
Do I need to wait at home for couch pickup?+
You do not need to be home when your booked sofa is outside and accessible. Add photos and pickup-location notes to your order so the right pieces are easy to identify. We send updates and completion photos. Confirm any building access restrictions with us before booking.
Will the city take a couch from the curb?+
Yes, through the Friday bulky collection, which runs for the whole city by appointment only. One item per household per week is allowed, the appointment has to be booked by noon on Thursday, and the piece goes out after 3 p.m. that afternoon. The city asks residents to donate furniture that is still usable rather than setting it out.Official guidance
Who do I call about rubbish and recycling in East Providence?+
