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.

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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Compton.
How much does mattress removal cost in Compton?+
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 Compton?+
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.
How many bulky pickups does Compton allow?+
Single-family and three-or-fewer-unit customers get one free pickup per quarter, up to six items each time, which is four free pickups a year. Extra pickups are available for a fee, and buildings with four or more units pay for bulky service.Official guidance
What can go out for a bulky pickup?+
Furniture such as chairs, sofas, mattresses and rugs, appliances such as refrigerators, ranges, washers, dryers, water heaters, dishwashers and small household appliances, and electronics. Hazardous waste, construction and demolition waste, tires and car bodies are not accepted.Official guidance
How do branches and brush go out?+

What if my carts are not collected?+
Contact Republic Services at (800) 299-4898 on the service day, and the guide states that collection will be completed by the next day. Separate trucks collect the recycling, organics and trash carts, so one cart may be emptied before the others are.Official guidance
What happens to a holiday tree?+
Holiday trees are collected curbside for recycling during the three weeks after Christmas at no additional charge, on the regular collection day by a different truck.
