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.
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.
Frame or adjustable base
Choose the frame that matches yours. A powered adjustable base has its own option. Include these only if they are leaving with the mattress.

Items do not need to be outside when you book. If your building allows only a short access window, contact us before booking so we can agree on a workable plan.
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.
Neither Whittier nor Athens names mattresses in its published material. Athens removes bulky items including furniture and major appliances on request, and mattresses appear on no refusal list, so acceptance is confirmed when the pickup is booked.
City cost & eligibility
The City's on call program gives four free pickups a year of up to three items, but no source confirms that a mattress counts toward those three. Confirm the mattress and any charge with Athens Services at (888) 336-6100 before booking.
When & how
Call Athens Services at (888) 336-6100 and confirm the mattress before scheduling, then set it out only for the confirmed pickup date.
Get it ready
A mattress never goes in a cart. Confirm the item, because the published Athens catalogue names furniture and major appliances rather than mattresses.
Carts out by 6 a.m., never before 6 p.m. the day before
All containers go out by 6:00 a.m. on the collection day and no sooner than 6:00 p.m. the day before, because the City's designated collection day is the 24-hour period from 6:00 p.m. the day before to 6:00 p.m. the day of collection under WMC 8.12.140. Containers are placed in the street with lids closed or in the alley, wheels against the curb, about a foot apart and at least three feet from parked vehicles.
Empty carts come off the street and out of public view
Remove every refuse and recycling container from the curb or alley once it is emptied. Except for the large 300-gallon alley containers, containers have to leave the public right-of-way and be stored on private property where they are not visible from the front or sides of the property.
A weekday holiday shifts collection one day for the rest of the week
Trash, recycling and green waste are collected as regularly scheduled except on New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. Whenever one of those holidays falls on a weekday, the schedule is delayed one day for the remainder of that week.
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 Whittier.
How much does mattress removal cost in Whittier?+
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 Whittier?+
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 Whittier pick up an old mattress?+
Mattresses are not named on either the accepted or the refused list published by the City or Athens. Athens removes bulky items on request at (888) 336-6100, so confirm that the mattress is accepted and whether it counts among the three items before the pickup.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Whittier?+
Athens Services is the City's sole solid waste hauler. Athens customer care is at (888) 336-6100, Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 12 p.m., and residents can also submit a bulky item request online.Official guidance
How many carts does a single-family home in Whittier get?+
The solid waste fee includes one black refuse cart, up to two green waste carts and an unlimited number of blue recycling carts. Extra black and green carts are charged an extra fee, and additional containers are ordered through Athens Services at (888) 336-6100.Official guidance
