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.

Japan seems to be in a difficult situation right now.
At such a time, it would be a spring person who decides to return home
and fly into the fire.

It's better than America.
I am Japanese to begin with.
In America, I am a foreigner.

Yes. It's a foreigner quota. I envy my peers who were dispatched and became good at it but were not dispatched.
In short, I realized that I wasn't sent because I was needed.

In the U.S., the foreign quota.
Then be an American.

A grandmother I knew who lived in an apartment a block away
died at the end of February and her neighbors had come to clear out her room.
A friend of mine was helping her, so I went into her room and found quite a bit of furniture left, and she told me to use it if I needed it, so I took some and left.

I used to work there too, but I couldn't get along with the boss and quit. About 3 people quit then.
I heard a rumor that he was deported and sent home, but I don't know if it's true or not.
