You got a lot of use out of that old couch. These events include screenings of classic films and impromptu dinner parties for friends to catch up. It served its purpose, but now it's time to say goodbye. Learn how to remove your sofa.

• Ask Your Trash Service

Large items like furniture can be picked up on a regular basis by many waste management companies. Many parts of your couch are recyclable, so you may want to consider this option rather than discarding it in a landfill.

Going for a proper junk removal is a way more wise decision because a proper professional company can reuse it and sell it in their own way. You do not have to dump the sofa in an unorganized way. A professional company has experts who can help you get rid of hauling an old couch- a headache indeed.

• Do Something Good with It

Your old couch is likely to be taken care of by a number of charitable organizations in your area. As an example, you may be looking for a homeless shelter, a charitable organization, or an individual in need. You should only do this if your couch is in a reasonably clean and usable condition. To avoid bed bug infestations, charity organizations often accept gently used or nearly new upholstered furniture.

• Try to Sell It

Fairly clean are the same requirements as when you are donating a piece of furniture. If there are any blemishes or imperfections, be sure to disclose them so that the buyer doesn't feel he or she has to back out of the deal because of them.

Your sofa can be sold on Craigslist or eBay if it has no stains and is sturdy. For items that are less-than-desirable in condition, post them to Craiglist's "free" section instead.

• Give It For Free

With a "free" sign attached to an old couch, many people have found success. It could vanish in a matter of hours or remain in place for days. As a courtesy to your neighbors, if it's the latter, come up with an alternative way to remove it.

• Recycle It

It's best to have your couch cleaned professionally or to rent a steam cleaner in order to remove any stains. To spruce things up, buy a few new throws or pillows. Custom slipcovers are also available in a variety of fabrics and colors.

Sofas can be dismantled and recycled because they contain many of the same components as mattresses. In order to recycle couches, you'll need a junk removal service like On Call Junk Haul, which has the connections to get it done.

Alternatively, you can take it apart and recycle the parts yourself. Each piece of material can be sent to a recycling facility: wood and cotton fabric; foam core; and springs. Whatever you decide to do, call us to get it done systematically. We serve around Edmond, OK.
