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.

Everyone is saying random things even if it's not what they have experienced
You should call Nichidori or wherever quickly and check.
If you inquire at the last minute, it may be that they don't do that anymore, or there is a possibility of high fees.

P.S.

Mr. Gegege
Thank you ！ I immediately contacted Nichidori, and it seems that the pick-up depends on conditions now, which does not seem to apply to our family.

This is the situation, and I will continue to check further on the possibilities.
Thank you for your concern.

The fact that the Tokyo Olympics extended until next year
was rather good timing for the upcoming returnees.

With the acceleration of America First protectionism, the only way for current foreign students to stay in the U.S. in the future will be to marry an American or be the child of a rich person who can afford graduate school.
