The walk-up sofa carry-down

In the East Village, getting one couch out almost always means a walk-up. Nearly every building is a tenement — four, five, sometimes six flights of narrow stairs, no elevator — so a single sofa pickup here is really a careful carry-down. We do it constantly, on the blocks around Tompkins Square, in Alphabet City, and off St. Marks and the Bowery, at a flat per-item price with no walk-up surcharge, no matter how high the unit.

A lot of these are move-out and roommate-turnover jobs: the old couch left behind when a lease ends or a roommate clears out, that has to be gone before the landlord walkthrough. Snap a photo, get a flat price, and we haul it — and where a sofa won't fit the tight stairwell or door, we split sectionals into pieces and fold or break down futon frames, included at no charge. Same-day pickups are available when the deadline's tight.

Gently used sofas go to donation where possible, the rest to recycling. Upload a photo for an exact price and book same-day or next-day.

Frequently asked questions

How much does couch removal cost in the East Village?

JunkRabbit prices by the piece. A standard sofa is $170, a loveseat $160, a recliner $132, a sleeper sofa $200, and a futon $150; sectionals run $190 (2-piece), $249 (3-piece), or $307 (4+ piece). $100 minimum. Upload a photo for an exact quote. No walk-up surcharge.

It's a fifth-floor walk-up. Is there a stair charge for the couch?

No. Almost every East Village building is a tenement walk-up, so four- and five-flight sofa carry-downs are the norm, and the price is flat with no surcharge. If the couch won't fit the narrow stairwell, the crew disassembles it on site.

Can you take the couch a departing roommate left?

Yes — an abandoned couch after a roommate moves out is one of our most common East Village pickups. Snap a photo, get a flat per-item price, and we'll haul it so you're not stuck paying for someone else's sofa at move-out.

Can you remove it the same day?

Often yes. Upload a photo, get an exact price, and pick a slot — same-day and next-day couch pickups are available across the East Village, with a texted arrival window.

Can you take apart a sectional or futon that's stuck?

Yes. We split sectionals into pieces and fold or break down futon frames and one-piece sofas to clear tight tenement doors and stairs — included, no extra charge.
