How to Get Rid of Old Furniture in Burnaby Without the Stress


If you’ve ever tried getting rid of an old couch, you know it’s not as simple as dragging it to the curb and calling it a day. In Burnaby, furniture disposal comes with a few rules, and if you’re not careful, you could end up with a fine — or a soggy loveseat sitting outside your house for a week.

Here’s a quick, no-fluff guide to getting rid of old furniture in Burnaby the easy way.

So, You’ve Got Old Furniture to Toss?

Maybe you’re moving, downsizing, or finally replacing that saggy old recliner. Whatever the reason, the big question is: Where can I take this stuff in Burnaby?

You’ve got a few choices:

1. Book a Pickup with the City (If You’ve Got Time to Wait)

The City of Burnaby does offer large item pickup, which is great — but it’s not always quick. You have to schedule it in advance, and there are limits on how much they’ll take. Plus, you’ll need to haul the furniture out to the curb yourself.

This works fine if you’ve only got one or two items and you're not in a rush.

2. Try Recycling or Donating

If your furniture is in decent shape, it’s worth checking with local charities. Places like Habitat for Humanity might take your old table or bookshelf. That said, a lot of places won’t accept stuff that’s stained, ripped, or broken — especially mattresses.

3. Call a Local Disposal Company (Like Ours!)

If you’re short on time or just don’t want to deal with the hassle, give us a call at Disposal King. We handle furniture disposal all over Burnaby — couches, beds, mattresses, desks, whatever you’ve got.

We’ll come to you, load it up, and make sure it’s taken care of responsibly. No waiting, no dragging heavy furniture to the curb, and no stress.

Why You Shouldn’t Just Dump It

We’ve seen it — couches abandoned in alleys, broken chairs left behind apartment buildings. Aside from being an eyesore, illegal dumping in Burnaby can get you ticketed. It also puts extra pressure on city crews and clutters up the neighborhood.

Doing it the right way helps keep your street clean and your conscience clear.

What We Take (Basically Everything)

Here’s a short list of what we’ll pick up:

  • Old sofas, sectionals, and love seats
  • Mattresses and box springs
  • Dining tables and chairs
  • Bookshelves, dressers, and nightstands
  • Office desks and filing cabinets

We also offer mattress recycling in Burnaby, and we do our best to keep usable items out of the landfill.

How to Dispose of Soil in Vancouver: A Step-by-Step Guide for Homeowners

Step 1: Identify Your Soil Type Before you get started, figure out exactly what kind of soil you're working with: Clean Soil – This is dirt that hasn’t been mixed with garbage, chemicals, or hazardous materials. It’s safe for reuse or eco-friendly disposal. Contaminated Soil – If the soil has been exposed to substances like oil, paint, or pesticides, it needs to be handled with extra care and disposed of at specialised facilities. Heads up: Construction and landscaping jobs often leave behind soil that can’t go to just any landfill. When in doubt, it’s best to get it tested or check in with the pros.
