Or perhaps you are facing a move soon and are looking to downsize a bit beforehand. 

Whatever the reason, getting rid of old furniture can be a big chore.

Taking on the Task of Furniture Disposal

Regardless of how many items you need to get rid of, the task of old furniture removal and disposal can be huge job. First of all, you need to dismantle the furniture pieces and then carry all those pieces out of the house. Then you have to figure out how you’re going to dispose of all the pieces and other debris.

Keep in mind that many places don't allow for furniture items to be left on the curb. And even if you are allowed to go this route,  you must rely on their schedule in order to have the municipal waste management company pick it up for you.

In addition, you still have to do all the heavy lifting!
