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.

The city's own residential guide names mattresses in its bulky item list: two mattresses per appointment, among the items it lists as removed at no fee, inside the bulky program that allows two cubic yards twice per calendar year for single-family homes with an appointment.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Two mattresses per appointment are listed among the items removed at no fee in the city guide's bulky item section. The appointment itself comes from the bulky program's two cubic yard allowance, twice per calendar year for single-family homes; a load beyond the allowance is charged per cubic yard and a third or later pickup carries the trip charge.
When & how
Book the bulky appointment with Waste Management of Alameda County at (510) 537-5500, then set the mattress out no more than six feet from the curb, or from the edge of the pavement where there is no curb.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress out of the garbage, recycling and organics carts, set it no more than six feet from the curb or the edge of the pavement, and put it out no earlier than the day before the appointment so it is not treated as illegally dumped debris.
Place the cart on the street with the wheels against the curb by 6 a.m. on the collection day and bring it in the same day. Keep it at least three feet from parked cars, mailboxes and other obstacles, keep carts at least two feet apart from each other, and store them on private property and out of view from the street no later than midnight on collection day under the municipal code. Bag all trash and close the lid, because overflow can draw an extra charge or be left behind.
The city rate schedule gives each household two cubic yards of bulky material twice a year. Material beyond that is charged by the cubic yard, and a third or later pickup is charged a trip fee on top of the per cubic yard charge, so measure the pile before it goes out and arrange the pickup in advance through Waste Management.
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 Hayward, with Waste Management of Alameda County

A Hayward household with furniture, a mattress, an appliance or other bulky item that will not fit the weekly cart and fits the two cubic yard allowance.

Arrange it
Call Waste Management of Alameda County at (510) 537-5500, describe the items, and put the load out for the arranged collection.
The allotment is two cubic yards twice a year, an extra pickup is charged a trip fee plus the per cubic yard overage, and the city guide's bulky item list sets the per-appointment limits, so an unusual piece is confirmed when the pickup is booked.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Hayward.
How much does mattress removal cost in Hayward?+
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 Hayward?+
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 Hayward take a mattress on a bulky pickup?+
Yes, inside the bulky program. The city guide lists two mattresses among the items removed at no fee, and the appointment comes from the two cubic yard allowance that single-family homes get twice per calendar year. Book it with Waste Management of Alameda County at (510) 537-5500 and set the mattress out no more than six feet from the curb or the edge of the pavement, no earlier than the day before the appointment.Official guidance
Who collects trash and bulky items in Hayward?+
The city has an agreement with Waste Management of Alameda County for garbage and recycling, and service and billing run through (510) 537-5500 or csnorthbay@wm.com. The city Environmental Services team answers at (510) 583-4700, and the bulky program is arranged on the same hauler line.Official guidance
