One couch, or the whole room

Two ways to do it

The first way is the container. A 14 yard roll off goes in your driveway and you fill it on your own schedule. Two days is $325, four days is $375, seven days is $425, and every one of those includes two tons. The second way is that we come and carry it out. That is junk removal, it is priced by the load, and you get the number on the phone before we roll. No price for it is published anywhere on this site, because one recliner and a four bedroom house are not the same amount of work.

Couches, mattresses and bed frames

Furniture is a space question more than a weight question. The container holds 378 cubic feet, so a sectional and a mattress set take a corner of it. A dresser, a dining table and the rest of the bedroom do not come near two tons, but they eat volume quickly if nothing gets broken down. Take the legs off, stand the mattress on edge, lay flat things flat. Most household furniture loads run out of space well before they run out of weight.

Appliances, and the one rule that matters

Anything holding refrigerant stays out of the container. That means refrigerators, freezers, window air conditioners, dehumidifiers and water coolers. The rule comes from federal law, not from us. A washer, a dryer or a stove has no refrigerant in it, so the rule does not touch those. Tell us the exact appliance when you call and you will get a straight answer on whether it rides in the box or needs a different path, and we will point you to that path.

Single heavy items

One item is a normal call. A sleeper sofa on a second floor, an upright piano nobody wants to touch, a chest freezer in a garage with a step down. For a single item, a load quote usually makes more sense than a rental, since you are not going to fill 14 yards with one couch. Tell us what it is, what floor it is on, and how far it is to where a truck can park. That is enough to price it. If a container works out cheaper for what you have, we will say so.

If you take the container

Steel rails on concrete is the picture in everyone's head, so here is what happens instead. Boards go down where the container will rest, and the rails and wheels land on wood rather than your driveway. Give us a spot with clear overhead room and a straight line in, and if the driveway is short or shared with a neighbor, mention it on the phone. If the couch is the only thing going in, a two day rental and an agreed spot means you can be at work when it lands and at work when it leaves.

What else can go in with it

Once the container is sitting there, the rest of the room can go with the couch. Carpet, padding, tack strip, clothing, boxes, lamps, particle board furniture, curtains and blinds all load fine. Drywall and trim from a remodel are fine too. Paint cans, cleaners, batteries and anything else hazardous stay out. If you are standing there holding something and wondering, that is worth a text before it goes in rather than a conversation after.
