Mattress removal. Any size. Upfront price.

Mattress removal starts around $85. Your final price depends on the mattress size, how many items you're removing, and whether you go with curbside or in-home pickup. Adding a box spring or bed frame to the same visit adjusts the total, and you'll see the exact price before you confirm anything. No fees get added after pickup.

Yes. Your Loaders can remove a box spring and bed frame in the same visit as your mattress. If the frame needs to be taken apart first, that's handled as part of the pickup. Just add those items when you book and your price updates to cover the full job.

Neither is required, and both are handled. With in-home pickup, your Loaders carry the mattress out from wherever it is, including upstairs bedrooms, apartment units, and narrow hallways. If you'd rather have it outside already, curbside pickup works too. Just strip the bedding and clear a path to the exit, and your Loaders take care of the rest.

Normal wear, staining, and minor damage aren't a problem, and your Loaders can take a mattress in typical used condition without issue. Bed bugs are the one thing that needs disclosing at booking, since an infested mattress may need to be bagged first. If you catch it early, professional heat treatment can sometimes save a mattress instead of tossing it, but a heavier or long-standing infestation is usually more reliably solved by disposal. Disclose it at booking either way; if you don't, we may decline the job on arrival.

Your Loaders route mattresses to local recycling facilities when those are available, since mattresses break down into steel springs, foam, and fabric that specialized facilities can process separately. Not every area has one nearby, so whether your specific mattress gets recycled depends on what's available locally. Responsible disposal is the goal either way, even when recycling isn't an option.

Most curbside trash services either won't take mattresses at all or require them wrapped in plastic first, and many cities charge fees or have specific rules for bulky item disposal. Skip that step and the mattress might just sit there, or you could end up with a code violation notice.

A mattress can take decades to break down, largely because of the steel springs, foam, and treated fabric it's made from. That's a big part of why mattress recycling programs exist: diverting mattresses extends landfill life and recovers materials that would otherwise sit there for years.

Yes. California, Connecticut, and Rhode Island currently have mandatory mattress recycling programs, funded through a small fee added when you buy a new mattress in those states. Mattress recycling infrastructure tends to be more developed there than in areas without a similar program, though it doesn't change how pickup works on your end.

Donation is for a mattress still in good, usable condition, typically going to a charity, shelter, or someone who can use it as-is. Recycling works for any mattress, working or not, and breaks it down into base materials like steel and foam rather than reusing it whole. Donation centers tend to have stricter condition requirements than recycling does, which is part of why more mattresses end up recycled or landfilled than donated.

A twin mattress typically weighs 40 to 60 pounds, while a king can run upward of 100 to 150 pounds depending on the material. Memory foam and hybrid models tend to weigh more than basic innerspring. That weight difference is a big part of why larger mattresses cost more to remove: more weight and bulk means more physical effort and truck space per pickup.
