Furniture Removal in Lyons Falls, New York

The best way to get rid of furniture depends on its condition: donate or sell if usable (Goodwill, Habitat for Humanity, Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace), use your city's free bulky item pickup (LA Sanitation) or a junk removal service (1-800-GOT-JUNK, Junk King) for convenience, or schedule a dumpster rental for large cleanouts, while recycling wood/metal is an option for unusable items.

Bulky waste includes carpeting, furniture, mattresses and large appliances. If an item exceeds 6' in any dimension, it is considered bulky waste. Bulky waste can be dropped off at OCRRA's Rock Cut Road Transfer Station.

Yes, NYC Sanitation (DSNY) will pick up couches as free bulk items for residents, but you must place them curbside correctly: after 4 PM the night before your last trash collection day (or 6 PM for some areas), ensuring they're at the curb (not blocking sidewalk/street) and manageable by two people. You can set out up to six bulk items per collection day, with no appointment needed for standard furniture like couches, but always check the DSNY website for your specific address rules.

Can you leave furniture on the curb in NYC? Yes, but only if you follow the NYC Department of Sanitation's rules. You can leave most large items out after 6 p.m. and midnight before your collection day. Mattresses and box springs must be sealed in plastic.
