The city and Recology Davis issue a One-Time Bulky Waste Landfill Voucher that is valid from May 1 to October 31, 2026 and was mailed to every Davis resident at the end of April. The voucher covers one free load at the Yolo County Central Landfill, up to a full-size pickup bed, a full-size van, or a small trailer less than three feet high and less than eight feet long.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. One voucher per City of Davis household for one free load at the Yolo County Central Landfill. Proof of residency that matches the address on the voucher is required, only one voucher is accepted per household, the voucher cannot be given to another household, a landscaper or a business, and disposal of anything beyond the one load must be paid for.
When & how
The 2026 voucher is valid from May 1 to October 31, 2026. Take it to the Yolo County Central Landfill at 44090 County Road 28H in Woodland, open Monday through Saturday from 6:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Sunday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. A resident who needs help moving the load can ask Recology Davis about an assisted service appointment.
Get it ready
Separate the materials before the trip so the site can recycle what it can. The voucher accepts appliances, asphalt, bricks, concrete, bulky trash, dirt, soil, sod, electronic waste, furniture, mattresses, green waste, scrap metal, up to nine tires and wood, and it refuses business waste, commercial construction debris and pressure treated wood. Cover the load, because an untarped load is charged at the scale.
Mattresses and box springs are recycled free at the Recology Davis recycling center at 2727 2nd Street during buyback hours and at the Yolo County Central Landfill. A futon mattress is accepted only when it is separated from the frame or base, and the city lists the mattress types the recycler refuses.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free mattress and box spring recycling at the Recology Davis recycling center during buyback hours and at the Yolo County Central Landfill. A futon mattress must be separated from its frame or base, and sleeping bags, pillows, mattress pads and toppers, car beds, crib or bassinet mattresses, waterbeds, air mattresses without upholstery, sofa beds and any mattress that is severely damaged, twisted, wet, soiled or infested are refused.
When & how
Drop a mattress at Recology Davis, 2727 2nd Street, during buyback hours on Monday through Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. or Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., or take it to the Yolo County Central Landfill during its open hours. The piece can also go in the free load covered by the bulky waste voucher.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and clean, because a wet, soiled or infested mattress is refused at the recycler. Wrap it so it does not come apart in the vehicle, keep it off the street and sidewalk, and take the frame apart from a futon before the trip.
Bring the bulky waste voucher and proof of residency that matches the address on it, and keep the load to a full-size pickup bed, a full-size van, or a small trailer less than three feet high and less than eight feet long. Separate the materials so the site can recycle what it can, cover the load because an untarped load is charged, and pay for anything beyond the one free load.
Call Recology Davis at 530-756-4646 to schedule a bulky item pickup and to get the collection and hauling price, then put the confirmed items at the curb for the scheduled day. Appliances are not part of curbside bulky pickup, and nothing should be left at the curb on a day when no collection is scheduled, because the city treats household items left on the street or sidewalk as illegal dumping.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Davis.
How much does mattress removal cost in Davis?+
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 Davis?+
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 does the Davis bulky waste voucher work?+
Every Davis household was mailed one voucher that is valid from May 1 to October 31, 2026 for a single free load at the Yolo County Central Landfill. Bring the voucher and proof of residency that matches the address on it, keep the load to a full-size pickup bed, a full-size van or a small trailer under three feet high and under eight feet long, and pay for anything beyond that load. A lost voucher can be replaced through Recology Davis.Official guidance
How do I recycle a mattress in Davis?+
Mattresses and box springs are recycled free at the Recology Davis recycling center at 2727 2nd Street during buyback hours and at the Yolo County Central Landfill. Separate a futon mattress from its frame or base first, and leave behind a wet, soiled, infested or severely damaged mattress along with waterbeds, air mattresses without upholstery and sofa beds, because the recycler refuses them.Official guidance
What does Davis charge to get rid of a large item?+
One load is free each year through the bulky waste voucher, and mattresses, small residential electronic waste loads and clean concrete, asphalt and gravel are free at the Yolo County Central Landfill. Everything else is priced by the load or by the weight on the county fee schedule, and a curbside bulky pickup from Recology Davis is quoted by phone. Dropcurb prices a pickup separately and shows the total before payment.Official guidance
Can I take my own load to the Yolo County Central Landfill?+
Yes. The landfill at 44090 County Road 28H in Woodland is open Monday through Saturday from 6:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Sunday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and every load is weighed at the scale house, where payment is by cash, check or credit card. Cover the load, because an untarped load is charged, and check the holiday closure list before a trip.Official guidance
Can I just leave a couch or mattress on the street?+
No. The city says illegally dumping household trash, mattresses and furniture around cans and dumpsters is expensive to clean up, and leaving furniture, mattresses or other household items in front of a property or on the street and sidewalk is a City Code violation and a safety hazard for bicyclists and pedestrians. Use the bulky waste voucher, a paid curbside pickup, or a donation instead.Official guidance
