They were great, super helpful and somewhat concerned that I wasn’t asking them to donate more. This was my time using Lugg a unfortunately the first to luggers were really unhelpful and left without carrying my bed frame to the second floor after delivery. Within a half hour I had the best customer service experience of my life and great part 2 to my Lugg experience. I'll definitely be a returning customer! - Sarah

I kept anticipating some kind of flub or problem to occur with this whole process. However, Jamar and Cameron were completely above and beyond my expectations. They were on time, friendly, understanding and accommodating. I had a sleeper sofa sent to my mom’s house almost 2 hours away. I did prepare for them as much as I could (as u should too!!) by putting the cushions in bags, removing the feet and strapping the sleeper down. They were kind enough to help my mom by removing the straps and putting on the feet! I made sure to tip them for their hard work. Thanks again guys!!! - Nicole

Shawn and Savon excelled in EVERY way. They are smart, efficient and pleasant. Their job was to remove my old loveseats and some other things to make room for my new IKEA sectional. This wasn’t an easy job because our small street was one of the streets that was being repaved with lots of construction equipment blocking access. Plus, the legs of the loveseats had to be removed to fit (barely) through the door of our house. Nevertheless, these gentlemen were calm and efficient throughout. They went to work immediately and accomplished the task quickly. I wouldn’t hesitate to call on them again and can recommend them without hesitation. - Elaine

How to get rid of a couch in Philadelphia

Getting rid of a couch takes two things: somewhere that will take it, and a way to get it there. You find the destination, whether that's a dump, a recycling center or a donation center, and a couch removal service does the carrying and the driving. Lugg movers are on the way within an hour, or you pick a one-hour window that suits you. They carry the sofa out of whatever room it's sitting in, load it, and drive it to the drop-off, so you're neither wrestling it down a stairwell nor borrowing a truck to reach a transfer station. One booking can make up to five stops, which is what a living-room swap usually needs: the sectional that's still good goes to a donation center and the broken recliner goes to the dump. Lugg is an on-demand moving and delivery service that carries an old couch out of the building and hauls it to the dump, recycling center or donation center you name.

What couch removal costs

Couch disposal is priced per job rather than as a flat fee. You'll see your estimate before you book. It's based on the vehicle you choose plus the labor time the movers spend, priced by the minute. There's no hourly minimum, so a single sofa down one flight doesn't get rounded up to a half-day block. A walk-up, a long carry out to the street and a slow elevator all take longer, and that time reads as labor minutes. You can cancel any time before the movers arrive at no charge.

Whichever facility in Philadelphia takes the couch charges its own fee for accepting it, based on weight. Your Luggers pay that on site so you don't need to go along, and it reaches your card as a separate charge after the Lugg is finished. It sits outside your estimate rather than inside it.

Where the old couch actually goes

The drop-off address goes on the booking the same way any second stop would. If the sofa is still in good shape, a donation center is usually the cheapest ending it can have.

Charities set their own condition standards rather than following one national rule, most won't take a couch that's torn or stained, and a piece can still be turned down when it arrives at the door. A rejection costs you the trip and leaves you with the couch and a second run to the dump, so check with your local center that they'll take it before you put their address on the booking. If it isn't in good enough shape to donate, sofa disposal means a transfer station or landfill, which takes it by weight.

Sofa removal: getting it out is the hard part

A couch on the way out doesn't need measuring. It came in through that door once, so it goes out through it. What's left is weight and angles. A sleeper hides a steel folding frame and weighs far more than the same sofa without one. A sectional splits into pieces that travel one at a time. A full-size couch in a narrow stairwell turns on the landing, not the doorway.

Lugg can move items up to 250 lbs each, or up to 125 lbs on a Lugg Lite. Pick the vehicle for the load when you book, and add a second stop if part of the set is going somewhere different from the rest.

Curbside day, a charity pickup, or a haul-away

There are three usual ways to get rid of a sofa: the curb, a charity, or a haul-away. If your city runs a bulk pickup day and you can wait for the date, that's the cheapest way to lose a couch, as long as you can get it to the curb yourself. That last part is where most people stop, because a sofa is manageable across a level driveway and close to impossible down three flights.

A charity will sometimes collect it for free, on their truck and their calendar, and the same condition standards decide whether they take it. A couch haul-away is for when the couch has to be gone on a date you pick rather than one you're offered. And if your city is already collecting from the curb and the only hard part is the staircase, book Lugg in Philadelphia for labor only and skip the second address: same movers, no drop-off.
