Fast, honest quotes. Snap a photo of the furniture, text or email it, and we'll reply with a ballpark starting price from our published rate card — your final price is confirmed on-site.
Three steps, no runaround.
You text or email a photo of the furniture to (704) 459-5052 or [email protected]. We reply with a ballpark starting price straight from our published rate card. On the day of service, our 2-person crew arrives, carries the furniture out from wherever it sits — living room, bedroom, upstairs — loads the truck, and sweeps the space. You never have to move a thing to the curb.
Your final price is confirmed on-site before we haul anything. No surprise fees, no upsell.
We haul almost any household furniture a two-person crew can carry:
If it's furniture and two people can carry it, it goes on the truck. Need to get rid of a full room or a whole estate's worth? We handle large-volume loads too, estimated as one job from a photo. See the pricing page for single-item starting prices.
Prices on this page are ballpark estimates copied from our published rate card — your exact price is confirmed on-site. There's no single-item minimum: one piece is priced off the card. Single-item prices include pickup, loading, and disposal by our 2-person crew.
Have several pieces? They're estimated as one job from a photo, not by adding up item prices. See the full 2026 cost guide for what affects the final price.
County drop-off — for Mecklenburg County residents with a sticker, one bulky item is No Charge at one of four Full-Service Recycling Centers. If you can get one sofa there yourself, you do not need to hire us for that piece. Those four sites are “the Full-Service Disposal & Recycling Centers – Foxhole, Hickory Grove, North Mecklenburg and Compost Central.” The county's fee sheet defines bulky waste as “Non-spoilable items that may include furniture, couches, tables, mattresses, etc.” The free drop-off is one piece: “1 large bulky item; such as a sofa, or a chair, or a table or Mattress Set.”
The resident sticker is free and never expires; an out-of-county badge is $120 a year. Without a sticker, the sheet says “If no sticker is displayed, you will pay based on the out of county category.”
A second item leaves the free category: “If more than 1 item, see Group 2 below.” More than one bulky item moves the whole load into the county's next category: “Bulky Waste: $15/unit”. That unit is a load, not an item: “1 unit = 1 load of material”. Uncovered or unsecured loads may add 50%. Those figures are what the county scale charges a resident who drives in. They are not 704junk's prices, they are not a City of Charlotte curbside pickup, and they are not a pickup at all — you haul it. If the sofa is upstairs, or you have a whole room, or you do not want to own the drive, that is the job on this page.
Quoted from Mecklenburg County, Residential Fees (FY July 2026 – June 2027, document code FY-27-002): Residential-Fees.pdf (mecknc.widen.net), fetched September 16, 2026, HTTP 200. This is a Mecklenburg County gate price at one of the four Full-Service Disposal & Recycling Centers named in that sheet. It is not a 704junk hauling price, not a City of Charlotte curbside rule, and not a state landfill ban. This schedule rolls over each July. Checked September 2026. Use the county's locations page for where and when; use the linked PDF for what it costs.Yes — we come inside. Our crew removes furniture from any room in the house, including upstairs bedrooms, basements, and garages. You don't have to drag anything to the door or the curb. Stairs above the main floor add $30 per flight, which is the only location-based add-on we charge.
Whatever can be donated or recycled, we route there first; the rest goes to a licensed disposal facility. Disposal fees for general junk are already baked into the price you're quoted — no surprise charges at the end. We don't make specific charity promises on every load, but usable pieces don't go to the landfill if we can avoid it.
Federal picture — EPA on what furniture is, and where most of it ends up. The routing sentence above is our practice on a given load. It is not a national recycling rate. EPA's durable-goods page is the federal dataset for this product sector. What it covers: “Furniture and furnishings include items such as sofas, tables, chairs and mattresses.” At the landfill gate those pieces are the oversized pile: “Managers of MSW facilities often call durable goods oversized and bulky.” How much of it there is: “Generation of furniture and furnishings in MSW was 12.1 million tons in 2018 (4.1 percent of total MSW), up from 2.2 million tons in 1960.”
Where that 2018 tonnage went, in EPA's own words: “the majority of this product sector was landfilled (80.1 percent)”. The other published share of that split was combusted for energy recovery (19.5 percent), not recycled. EPA also says no measurable recovery data was accessible for this sector except for mattresses, so this page does not claim a furniture recycling rate. Usable pieces we can donate still get offered; that is a load-by-load routing choice, not a claim that furniture as a category is mostly recycled.
Quoted from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Durable Goods: Product-Specific Data: Durable Goods: Product-Specific Data (epa.gov), fetched September 16, 2026, HTTP 200. This is federal 2018 MSW data for the furniture-and-furnishings product sector. It is not a Mecklenburg County drop-off price, not a City of Charlotte curbside rule, and not a North Carolina disposal ban. The 80.1 percent landfilled figure sits beside 19.5 percent combusted for energy recovery in the same EPA paragraph; neither number is a recycling rate. Checked September 2026. Figures are as published for 2018.State oversight — the facility is permitted, monitored, and enforced. There is no furniture-specific North Carolina rule. When a sofa is past donation, it goes to a solid-waste facility the state already regulates. NC DEQ: “The Solid Waste Program regulates safe management of non-hazardous solid waste through guidance, technical assistance, regulations, permitting, environmental monitoring, compliance evaluation and enforcement.” What those facilities take: “Waste types handled at these facilities include municipal solid waste, industrial waste, construction and demolition waste, land-clearing waste, scrap tires, medical waste, compost, and septage.”
That list is the state's description of the program. It does not name furniture, and this block does not invent a furniture-specific state rule — there is not one. What it does support is the answer to where the couch actually goes: a facility that is permitted, monitored, and subject to enforcement by NC DEQ. That is a different job from the county gate price in the first block and from EPA's national 2018 split in the second.
Quoted from the NC Department of Environmental Quality, Solid Waste Section: Solid Waste Section (deq.nc.gov), fetched September 16, 2026, HTTP 200. This is a state program description. It is not a furniture-specific North Carolina rule, not a Mecklenburg County drop-off price, and not a City of Charlotte curbside rule. Checked September 2026.

Quick answers to what Charlotte homeowners ask us most about furniture pickup.
Ballpark single-item prices from our published rate card: sofa from $115, sectional from $165, loveseat or recliner from $95, mattress or box spring from $95, dresser from $95, dining table from $105. Several pieces are estimated as one job from a photo, not by adding up item prices. Text a photo of the items for a rough estimate; your final price is confirmed on-site before we haul anything.
Yes. Our 2-person crew comes inside and carries furniture out from wherever it sits — bedroom, upstairs, basement, or garage. You don't move a thing to the curb. Stairs above the main floor add $30 per flight; that's the only location add-on we charge.
Yes. We take mattresses, box springs, and bed frames together or separately. A mattress or box spring runs from $95 as a single item. Several pieces, including the frame, are estimated as one job from a photo, not by adding up item prices. Text a photo and we'll give you a ballpark price for the whole set.
Often the same day — book before noon and we'll do our best to arrive that day, based on crew availability. There's never a same-day rush fee. Text or email a photo to get a starting price, and we'll nail down a time that works.
Whatever can be donated or recycled, we route there first. The rest goes to a licensed disposal facility. Disposal fees are already included in your quoted price — no added charges at the end.
Two public routes can cost nothing, and each has conditions. City of Charlotte bulky pickup serves households that already get City garbage service and has to be scheduled; its rules are on our where-your-junk-goes page. A Mecklenburg County Full-Service Recycling Center takes one bulky item at No Charge when your vehicle has the free resident sticker, and you haul it there yourself. A charity may also take a piece in usable condition; ask whether it picks up and whether it charges. If you would rather someone else carry it out, text a photo for a price.
The City runs a bulky-item pickup for households that already get City garbage service, and it has to be scheduled: items put out without a scheduled pickup are not collected. Its eligibility list, summarized on our where-your-junk-goes page, includes couches and chairs. If a piece is not on the list, or you would rather not move it to the curb, text a photo for a price.
There is no furniture-specific North Carolina recycling rule. EPA had no measurable recovery data for the furniture sector except mattresses: in its 2018 figures, 80.1 percent of the sector was landfilled and 19.5 percent was combusted for energy recovery. Our where-your-junk-goes page covers the county's centers. On our loads, whatever can be donated or recycled goes to donation or recycling first.
We can't speak for any charity's pickup rules. Ask the charity whether it picks up at your address, what condition it accepts, and whether it takes the piece you have. If it won't take a piece, text a photo for a price to haul it.
