Three parts. Choose only the ones going.
Mattress
Choose twin, full, queen or king / California king. The mattress choice covers the mattress itself. A topper is a different item.

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.

A Fremont residence with individual curbside garbage service gets two free on-call bulky goods pickups each year. The city names large appliances, microwave ovens, furniture, televisions, stereos and computers as collected items, and recyclable items such as computers and televisions are salvaged as part of the service.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Two free bulky goods collections per year for a Fremont residence with individual curbside garbage service. Material that is larger than the set-out area, an extra collection and debris box service are charged separately.
When & how
Call Republic Services at 510-657-3500 to book an appointment at least two weeks before the collection date. Put the items out no more than 24 hours ahead and by 5:45 a.m. on the collection day.
Get it ready
Group the items in one 6 foot by 6 foot by 6 foot area in the street next to the curb, and keep them off the sidewalk, driveway and private property. Household trash, recyclables, organics, electronic waste and household batteries bagged in a clear sealed bag can go out with the same collection, but loose small items cannot, and nothing may exceed 150 pounds. No household hazardous material and no construction or demolition debris is accepted.
Mattresses and box springs go out with a bulky goods pickup, and the county guide adds a free drop-off route: up to four mattresses or box springs can be taken to the Fremont Recycling and Transfer Station at 41149 Boyce Road at no charge.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Mattresses and box springs are collected inside the two free bulky goods pickups, and up to four mattresses or box springs are accepted free at the Fremont Recycling and Transfer Station at 41149 Boyce Road. A mattress heavier than 150 pounds cannot go in the bulky collection.
When & how
Book a bulky appointment through Republic Services at 510-657-3500 at least two weeks ahead, or take up to four mattresses or box springs to the transfer station at 41149 Boyce Road, which is open to the public Monday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and bag or wrap it so it stays intact, and keep it out of the carts and off the sidewalk. Take the frame or base off before a drop-off, and put the mattress with the rest of the bulky load inside the set-out area if it goes out for collection.
Group everything in one 6 foot by 6 foot by 6 foot area in the street next to the curb and keep it off the sidewalk, driveway and private property. The pile can go out no more than 24 hours before the appointment and has to be out by 5:45 a.m. on the collection day. Bag, box or bundle the small material, since loose items are refused, and keep the load to two appliances or large items with nothing over 150 pounds.
Yard trimmings, plant debris and yard waste go out with the bulky collection, with trimmings no larger than 12 inches in diameter and 4 feet in length, bagged, boxed or tied in bundles. Palm fronds cannot be composted or chipped, so the city runs a separate pilot: an additional bulky pickup that does not count against the two annual collections, bundled and no larger than 6 feet by 6 feet by 6 feet and not out earlier than the night before, or a free self-haul to the transfer station under the City of Fremont Palm Frond Program with proof of residency. A load mixed with trash is charged the posted rates.
Request a debris box from Republic Services for all the material, or have the contractor haul it in its own vehicle to an approved recycling facility. Debris boxes come in sizes from 6 cubic yards to 40 cubic yards, and the hauler charges for the box and for material beyond the set-out allowance. A permitted project also has to keep the documentation, receipts and waste tracking records the city's construction recycling requirements call for.
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 Fremont.
How much does mattress removal cost in Fremont?+
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 Fremont?+
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 free bulky pickups does Fremont allow?+
A residence with individual curbside garbage service gets two free on-call bulky goods pickups a year, scheduled at least two weeks ahead through Republic Services. The load goes in a 6 foot by 6 foot by 6 foot area in the street next to the curb, carries no more than two appliances or large items, and nothing in it may be heavier than 150 pounds. Extra material and debris boxes cost more.Official guidance

What does Fremont charge to get rid of a large item?+

Anything larger than the set-out area, an extra collection and a debris box are charged, and the transfer station posts its own disposal rates by the load.
