Disposal of Furniture upon Return to Japan

I am currently living in LA accompanying my husband on an overseas assignment. The expiration date is until this summer or next summer, but with the recent Corona fiasco, I am prepared to be ordered to return home suddenly at any time.

I would like to be as prepared as possible in case that should that happen. The thing I am most worried about is getting rid of the furniture.
If I had the time, I would sell or give it to someone else, but I probably don't have that luxury in terms of time, so I would like to ask some vendor to pick it up if possible.

As for questions,
1 ) Is there a company that can come to my house to pick it up ? ( Would it be a recycling company )
If you know, could you give me specific company names and such? I would be very grateful.
It would be very reassuring if the company can speak Japanese.

2 ) I think large items such as dining room tables and beds need to be dismantled. We cannot bring it in.

The address is in the area of Los Angeles 90024.

Furniture includes bed, dining table & chairs, TV board, storage shelves, computer table.
Almost all of them were purchased at IKEA. ( Total cost is just under 200,000 yen ・ ・ ・ )

I am very sorry for being so vague and not knowing what to expect.
I'd be happy to borrow your wisdom.

As already mentioned, Goodwill and Salvation Army are the best ways to donate.
Otherwise, if you want to get rid of it as soon as possible, you can
put it in the buy/sell section of BibiNavi for free, or
put it in the Free section of Craigslist, and you will find someone to take it immediately.
If you are too lazy to deal with it, you can put a free "curb alert" and leave the items you want to dispose of on the side of the road as a last resort. If someone takes it, you can stop posting it.

We used Kaguya Hime.
Disposal fee $ 300 including mattress
I was able to empty my furniture and appliances. We requested a Japanese-affiliated company to return to Japan, but the pickup of furniture and other items was a separate plan $ 1,000.

Goodwill Even when they were doing it, they said they couldn't take back the furniture because they didn't have space in Corona.

Has anyone used Kaguyahime ? I will be returning home this month and the moving company is going to charge me
$ around 1000 to dispose of my furniture....
goodwill also seems to be no good due to corona....
