Mattress

Box spring or foundation
Add the non-powered support beneath the mattress separately. Choose its size. If you have a split foundation, send a photo so we can help you count it.

Your place. One easy pickup plan.
A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.
If a new mattress is arriving, check whether your retailer is taking the old one. If you need Dropcurb, choose a day when you can have it outside. A delivery window and a pickup day are different arrangements.
2
Arrange the trip outside.
Plan for doorways, elevators and interior stairs before pickup day. You arrange any indoor carrying. Use a permitted outdoor location and keep entrances and the walking path open.
3
Make the right mattress easy to find.
Follow the readiness instructions in your confirmation. Add a location photo and clear access notes so your hauler can identify exactly what is going.
You’re in the loop. Until it’s gone.
Confirmation when you book. A heads-up before arrival. Photos when it’s done.
Huntsville does not name mattresses in its curbside list or publish a mattress rule or rate. The city's bulk waste definition covers waste that cannot be containerized and its curbside list names furniture and household items, so a mattress may qualify, but the route has to be confirmed before it goes out.
City cost & eligibility
No mattress rate is published by the city. Call the Sanitation Division at 256-883-3964 to confirm that the mattress will be collected as bulk waste and whether the special collection charge applies to your pile.
When & how
No published collection day for a mattress. Confirm with the Sanitation Division first, then set it out by 7 a.m. on the collection day you are given.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and out of the garbage cart, and set it on the bulk pile between the sidewalk and the curb rather than in the street. Do not put it out before you have confirmed the route, since unauthorized material at the curb can stop collection for the whole pile.
Garbage carts, bulk items and yard waste go to the curb by 7 a.m. on the collection day. The city code bars putting containers out before sundown the day before collection, bars leaving them out after the collection day, and requires them in place before the work day begins.
Bulk waste, white goods and loose yard waste go between the sidewalk and the curb, or in another accessible place the Sanitation Division approves. Tree limbs are cut to five feet with protruding branches trimmed, and the pile stays neat so it does not block the sidewalk, traffic or water flow.
There is no residential collection on the listed city holidays, and when a holiday falls on a weekday the rest of that week runs one day late, with the Monday route moving to Tuesday. Leave the cart at the curb until it is collected, and check the recycling schedule separately because it uses a different holiday list.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.
City of Huntsville Sanitation Division and the Solid Waste Disposal Authority
Weekly curbside bulk waste collection
Single-family households with furniture, white goods or other large items that will not fit in the city-issued garbage cart.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Up to ten cubic yards of yard and bulk waste per collection each week is included in the standard residential rate of $21.50 per month billed on the Huntsville Utilities bill. Participation is mandatory for single-family residential customers.
Arrange it
Put the item between the sidewalk and the curb, or in another accessible place the Sanitation Division approves, by 7 a.m. on your collection day, and keep the pile clear of fire hydrants, fences, utility poles and wires.
The route serves single-family residential customers. Bulky waste, yard waste and rubbish from apartment complexes and from commercial or industrial premises that use a private hauler are excluded, and construction and demolition debris, contractor material, rocks, dirt, concrete, shingles, hazardous waste and medical waste are not collected.
Self haul in Huntsville means driving to the Solid Waste Disposal Authority's household hazardous waste facility at 1055 A Cleaner Way, open Monday through Friday 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and open rain or shine. That is where electronics, televisions, batteries, paints, chemicals, pool chemicals, fluorescent bulbs, used oil, antifreeze, expired medicines and sharps go, and it is the reason none of those items belong in the garbage cart or the recycling cart. The city's item guide also says the Huntsville Landfill accepts appliances for a fee and recycles them through an outside contractor, but no address, hours or amount is published, so call the Sanitation Division at 256-883-3964 or the authority at 256-882-0155 before loading. Furniture, appliances and other household items do not need the trip, because they go out with the weekly bulk collection instead.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Huntsville.
How much does mattress removal cost in Huntsville?+
The price depends on the mattress size you choose. A queen mattress is $99 as the first item and $30 as an additional item. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Add any box spring or frame separately, then review your total and any applicable tax before payment.
Can I book same-day mattress pickup in Huntsville?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup. Choose from the dates shown at checkout. Have the mattress outside and accessible according to your confirmation. Your booking is for a day rather than an exact arrival time, and we text you when your hauler is on the way.
Is my box spring or bed frame included in mattress removal?+
The mattress price covers the mattress only. Add your box spring, bed frame or adjustable base separately if those are going too. Choose the size and type that match each item. The combined price appears before booking.
Will you carry my mattress downstairs or out of my apartment?+
Dropcurb starts outside. You arrange to move the mattress out of your apartment and down interior stairs before pickup. We load it and take it away from an accessible outdoor spot. Check your building’s access rules before arranging the move outside.
Can you pick up my old mattress when my new one arrives?+
You can choose an offered pickup day around your replacement delivery. First check whether the retailer already includes old-mattress removal, and arrange who will bring it outside if needed. Dropcurb books a pickup day, not the retailer’s delivery window. Contact us before booking if access is limited to a short time.
Will Huntsville pick up a mattress at the curb?+
The city does not name mattresses anywhere in its collection rules and publishes no mattress fee. Bulk waste is defined to include waste that cannot be containerized, and the curbside list names furniture and household items, so call the Sanitation Division at 256-883-3964 to confirm the mattress before you set it out.Official guidance
Can I take a mattress somewhere instead?+
The city's item guide names the Huntsville Landfill only for appliances, and it publishes no mattress route, address or rate, so there is no published drop-off for a mattress in the material read for this guide. Call the Sanitation Division at 256-883-3964 or the Solid Waste Disposal Authority at 256-882-0155 to ask about current options before you load a trailer.Official guidance
How do I find my garbage collection day?+
Enter your address in My Huntsville Services or call the Sanitation Division at 256-883-3964, which is open Monday through Thursday, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Garbage, bulk waste and yard waste all go to the curb by 7 a.m. on the collection day.Official guidance
How much bulk waste is included in the residential rate?+
Up to ten cubic yards of yard and bulk waste per collection each week is included in the standard residential service, and each additional five cubic yards is billed per collection on the Huntsville Utilities bill. Waste that is not containerized or bundled can be handled as a special collection, which carries its own minimum, so call 256-883-3964 before building the pile.Official guidance
