Who do we contact for large item trash pickup? We have an old couch we need to get rid of.

is it still useable? If so, I'd post it for free on Craigslist Other than that, in our area it's my understanding they only do bulk pickup 2x per year. I can't say how it works where you are though

Just make sure you get the curriculum vitae and a thorough background check on whomever comes out to get it....credibility and all.

I keed. SA08 had a great suggestion if it's useable, or call the Salvation Army or Medina Children's Home....they usually come out pretty quickly.

Call 311 - they will schedule a pick up but I do believe there is a fee for it.

LOL, I just posted something very similar...several helpful people suggested calling House Calls. I also looked into 1-800-GOT-JUNK and prices start at $108. I am sure it would be around that for just one couch.

I think they charged us 50.00 to have a special P/U last year. See if you are close to the regular free brush P/U's!! 3 1 1 ....!
