Couch and sofa removal in Wellfleet

How the Transfer Station handles upholstered furniture

The fee schedule lists Sofas and Chairs and Sleeper Sofas by weight at $290 per ton, the same rate it lists for C&D (the town's separate C&D page says $270, so confirm the rate at the gate). The Board of Health rules name sofas, chairs and other furniture as construction-area items, and a sticker is required. Older, heavier pieces cost more at the scale than a light loveseat would.

The gate attendant inspects every C&D load. The rule that applies to oversized pieces: large bulky items over two feet square of any material stay out of the trash trailer. Call the station at (508) 514-1199 before bringing a sectional.

Reuse and donation options

The Swap Shop refuses wooden furniture and large wooden items and anything that carries a fee, and it is open only Saturday, Sunday and Tuesday mornings. A clean, intact couch is better placed with ReStore Cape Cod, which lists used furniture and has a pickup request form, or with a charity that offers pickup. Call before you book; large pieces are accepted at their discretion.

Seasonal rentals often leave a worn couch behind in October. Ask any donation group about condition rules before you load it.

What JUNKRUN does

We carry the couch out from any room, wrap it as needed, and haul it. Prices are flat: loveseat $89, couch $139, sectional $109, sleeper sofa $189, recliner $89. If a couch is the only item, the $159 minimum applies. Ask us about stairs, a narrow porch door or a sandy drive; we price one number. Heavy pieces such as sleeper sofas and sectionals are the ones that cost most at a scale, so a flat price is simpler. If a couch is sound and clean, say so when you book and offer it to ReStore Cape Cod first.
