Need furniture removal in Chicago? Call (708) 815-4747 and a real person picks up, not an answering service. Our furniture disposal service hauls old sofas, mattresses, wardrobes and appliances that cannot go into a regular dumpster.
When you are renovating or moving into a resale home, old furniture has to go somewhere. A sofa or a wardrobe is oversized waste and cannot simply be left at the curb. Professional removal covers disassembly right in the apartment, hauling from any floor, loading into a truck, and transport to a disposal facility where materials are sorted for recycling.
Why Book Furniture Disposal With Us
Same-Day HaulingThe crew arrives, disassembles and removes everything in one visit.
Old furniture removal and disposal — sofas, sectionals, mattresses, bed frames, wardrobes, dressers, dining sets, desks, office chairs and appliances — picked up from any floor in Chicago. A dispatcher confirms crew, time and price after a free 10-minute survey — by phone or video.
Furniture Disposal Questions
We remove sofas, mattresses, wardrobes, dressers, dining sets, desks, shelving units and worn-out appliances. If a piece does not fit through the doorway whole, the crew disassembles it right in the room. No job is too small — a single armchair is picked up too.
You call or request a quote, and a crew arrives at the agreed time with disassembly tools, moving carts and floor runners. Large pieces are taken apart on site so they fit down the stairwell. Everything goes into the truck, and the crew sweeps the rooms before they leave. Most jobs take one to three hours depending on volume.
Materials are sorted by type — wood, metal, fabric and foam each go to the appropriate recycling stream. Pieces that are still in usable condition can be directed to local charities instead of the landfill.
If a sofa or a table is still in decent shape, it can go to a shelter or a charitable organization rather than a landfill. The crew separates donation-worthy pieces from the rest during the same visit and delivers them to the receiving organization.
Old refrigerators, washing machines, stoves and other household appliances are removed alongside furniture in the same truck. Once disconnected, they are carried out. Fridges and freezers need their refrigerant recovered before recycling.
A standard truck holds the contents of a one- or two-bedroom apartment. For larger cleanouts the dispatcher sends a bigger vehicle or schedules a second run so everything leaves in one day.
The price depends on the number of pieces, the floor and the stairway access. Send photos or walk the rooms on a video call, and the dispatcher quotes a price in writing; no one shows up until you approve the number. Most jobs take one to three hours.
Usable pieces can go to a charity or a shelter, and the city's own options are covered in our guide to getting rid of old furniture in Chicago. When you need it gone the same day, with the disassembly and the stairs handled, our crew does the hauling.

Disassembly & Sorting
The crew brings tools and takes apart wardrobes, bed frames and shelving units directly in the room. Pieces that do not fit through the doorway are unbolted on the spot. Doorframes and banisters are padded before anything moves through the hallway.
