- Hello. I’ve been attempting to dispose of a small couch. I live at 16 River Street. Before doing anything, I went to the City of Boston website, learned that I should put the couch out with my trash on trash day. I verified this on the app and by calling 311 and speaking to an operator. I put the couch out last Thursday night (Jan. 29) for my neighborhood’s trash pickup the next day, setting it in the same place normal trash goes, as directed by the website and 311 operator. The couch was not picked up and remained next to my building. I called 311 soon after and the operator said they were filing some kind of report and that the couch would be picked up within 48 hours. It was not. This morning (Feb. 6) was the third straight trash day that the couch was not collected. I’ve called 311 several times about getting the couch disposed of. Today, my landlord alerted me to a ticket he’d gotten, apparently for the couch. Again, I followed every step the city laid out on how to dispose of a couch. I also verified everything during multiple calls with 311. I just need to make sure that the couch gets collected and my landlord does not incur a fine, as I have done everything g exactly by the book. Please let me know if you need additional information for me. As of today, the couch is directly next to 16 River Street, Boston, MA 02108.

Hello, the previous missed pickup case at this address (101006496954) stated that the couch was on private property. To ensure pickup, place the couch out directly on the sidewalk so that the couch can be picked up. You can also appeal the ticket online on Boston.gov.
