furniture removal
grand rapids.
This is the city that built the country's furniture for a century, so it is fitting that getting rid of it is a daily job here. The Grand Rapids crew carries sofas out of third-floor walk-ups, bedroom sets out of split-levels in Kentwood, and whole office suites out of Medical Mile buildings. Anything still usable goes to a donation partner before anything else is considered.

What goes on the truck.
Loads with the crew
- Dressers, armoires, nightstands and bed frames
- Dining tables, chairs and hutches
- Desks, bookcases and filing cabinets
- Sectionals, recliners and sleeper sofas
- Patio furniture and outdoor sets
- Office furniture from small businesses
Stays behind, and why
- Pieces with active bed bug or pest issues (tell the crew so it can be bagged and handled separately)
- Antiques you want appraised first
Before the crew arrives.
Decide what stays and what goes, then put a piece of tape on anything that stays. The crew moves fast and tape is faster than a conversation.
Empty the drawers. Dressers and desks travel lighter and nothing of yours ends up at the donation center by accident.
Note the stairs. Heritage Hill and East Hills houses have narrow turns on the second floor, and a sleeper sofa may need its back removed, which the crew can do.
Send a photo of the biggest piece and the pile. That gets you a real ballpark before the truck leaves the yard.
How it is priced.
Furniture in Grand Rapids is priced by how much of the truck it fills, agreed at the curb before loading. A single sofa is a minimum charge. A bedroom set is a quarter load. A whole apartment is usually a half. Stairs beyond the second floor and long carries are called out separately, and you know the total before the first piece moves.
Get today's numberWhere it lands.
Sofas, tables, dressers and chairs in usable shape go to donation partners in Kent and Ottawa counties, where they are back in a living room within the week. Metal frames and bed rails are recycled. Particleboard pieces that have given up, and anything torn or water damaged, go to a licensed transfer station.
Mission log.
Real answers from the Grand Rapids crew. If your question is not here, the phone works.
(616) 537-2651Q 01Do you move furniture out of third-floor apartments on the East Side?
Every week. Walk-ups near Eastown and Wealthy Street are standard. The crew brings straps and a stair dolly, and a sleeper sofa that will not turn the corner gets its back unbolted and goes down in two pieces.
Q 02Can you clear a whole office in a Medical Mile building?
Yes. Desks, chairs, filing cabinets and cubicle panels are priced by the load, and the crew works with building management on elevator reservations and dock times. Evenings and weekends are available for occupied buildings.
Q 03Will my couch actually get donated?
If it is clean, dry and structurally sound, yes, to a partner in Kent County. Pet damage, tears and odor rule it out, and the crew will tell you honestly which bucket your couch is in.
Q 04What is the minimum charge for one chair or one small table?
A single-item minimum, which covers the truck coming out. If you have anything else you want gone, add it; the price barely moves until the next quarter load.
Q 05Can you take a sectional from a Forest Hills basement?
Yes. Sectionals come apart into pieces that go up most basement stairs easily. If the pieces are bolted together, the crew brings the tools.
Q 06Do you handle furniture from student move-outs near GVSU, Calvin and Aquinas?
Yes, and late April through May is the busiest stretch for it. Landlords with several units can book one window and the crew clears them in a row.
Q 07Is there a charge for an item that turns out to be donatable?
Yes, the same load price. The donation run is part of how the crew disposes of what they pick up, not a separate service, and it keeps the price lower than a landfill-only hauler.
Q 08How fast can you get a couch out of Grandville or Wyoming?
Often the same day if you call before noon. Single-piece furniture pickups fit easily into the route.
Show the Grand Rapids crew the pile. They handle the rest.
Describe what is leaving and when you want it gone. The crew calls back with a window and a rough number, then locks the real price at your curb.
