Office Chair
Disposal Rules
Office chairs are accepted in dumpsters. The gas cylinder can make them awkward to stack. Remove the base and wheels if possible to create a flatter profile.
Pro Tip
Flip the chair upside down and remove the base with an Allen wrench. The seat and back stack much flatter without it.
Alternatives
Donate working office chairs to thrift stores or nonprofits. Office furniture liquidators buy ergonomic chairs.

Couch / Sofa
AcceptedCouches and sofas are accepted in dumpsters. They are extremely bulky and can fill a significant portion of a 10-yard container. Remove cushions and, if possible, cut the frame apart to save space.
Desk
AcceptedDesks of all types — wood, metal, or composite — are accepted in dumpsters. They are bulky but manageable. Disassemble them when possible to stack components flat and save space.
Tables (Dining, Coffee, etc.)
AcceptedTables of all sizes are accepted in dumpsters. Remove or fold legs to make them stackable. Glass tabletops should be handled carefully and wrapped to prevent breakage.
Bookshelf / Shelving
AcceptedBookshelves, wire shelving, and storage units are accepted in dumpsters. Disassemble modular units to save space. Particleboard shelving breaks apart easily with a pry bar.
