We’ll tell you how to skip the dumpster and get sofa bed pick-up and removal in NYC.
From its very beginnings around 10,000 BC when the first people arrived, New York City has always been a city of immigrants. NYC has seen mass immigration of peoples from all over the world: Netherlands, England, Italy, France, Germany, Ireland, Africa, Asia, Latin America, and beyond.
These peoples helped build and enrich the ever-evolving culture of the Big Apple. They brought with them not only their history and culture but also their stuff. With thousands of people coming and going from NYC over the centuries, that makes for quite a bit of furniture needing to be thrown out.
Today is no different. But with all the rules and regulations of our modern, eco-conscious culture, it can be hard to figure out what to do with something like an old sleeper sofa. In a city of pedestrians like NYC, it can be even harder.
Where to Donate a Sofa Bed in NYC
You’ll have to research local charities and what they take to find out if and where you can donate your sleeper sofa. Whether your donation of a used sofa bed can be accepted depends on what condition it’s in and whether or not a nonprofit organization needs it. If they can take it, some NYC nonprofits also offer pick-up and haul-away of donated items.
You can probably donate your sofa bed to a charity in NYC like Goodwill or Salvation Army, as long as your sleeper sofa is still in good condition. If your pull-out couch is creaky, stained, torn, or faded, it will probably be more trouble than it’s worth to any nonprofit organization.
Even though donating your old sofa bed helps cut down on landfill waste and helps people in the community who are in need, it also requires a good bit of research and planning on your part. It can also be tough to schedule pick-up or drop-off of your furniture donation for a time and date that works for you and for charity volunteers.
Professional Sleeper Sofa Removal and Disposal
Having a professional junk hauler pick up and dispose of your old sofa bed for you is a great way to save yourself a lot of time and energy. A junk removal company will charge a fee to pick up and dispose of your old furniture for you, but it can definitely be worth it. There are many furniture removal and disposal services in NYC to choose from, so you want to consider a few things when deciding who to call.
If you only need to have a sofa bed picked up, check to see if the junk hauler charges a minimum load fee or will even pick up a single item. Many furniture removal services, especially local haulers, won’t come and pick up just one item. If they will, they will probably charge you for a full load to make it worth their while.
If you need to have your furniture picked up right away or are on a time constraint, that can be a problem. When you call a professional junk hauler, it can take anywhere from days to weeks to have your furniture picked up. Especially when working with big-name junk companies.
They send a salesman out to give you a “free estimate,” then you have to wait to schedule another appointment for them to come and pick up your items. You’ll have to take time off work and move your schedule around so that you can be home for both of these visits.
