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 mattress is named in the bulky waste list for the Scofield events, and the city's Stamford hazardous waste day also took used mattresses through the Mattress Recycling Council.
City cost & eligibility
Neither the Scofield events nor the hazardous waste days publish a fee for mattresses, so confirm the current arrangement with the department at 203-977-4117. A mattress in a load taken to the Scale House falls under the free 200 pound daily allowance for a passenger vehicle, with $6.75 charged per additional 100 pounds.
When & how
Take the mattress to the Scofield site at 55 Rock Rimmon Road on a published event date between 7:30 a.m. and 2 p.m., or watch the city's hazardous waste day schedule for the mattress collection that ran alongside the Stamford day.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and inside the 200 pound load limit, keep it clear of the recycling and yard waste streams, and arrive in a passenger vehicle, because trailers, rental trucks and commercial plates are not allowed at the event.
Stamford's Scale House and Transfer Station at 101 Harborview Avenue takes residential dumping Monday through Saturday from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m., with up to 200 pounds a day free in a passenger vehicle and 6 dollars and 75 cents for each additional 100 pounds. The Katrina Mygatt Recycling Center at 130 Magee Avenue takes recycling, garbage and yard waste Tuesdays through Saturdays from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. but only from residential passenger vehicles: commercial vehicles, pickups, cars with trailers, rental trucks and vehicles with combination or commercial plates have to dump at the Scale House instead.
The city's recycling events at 55 Rock Rimmon Road run from 7:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. on published dates and are open only to Stamford residents. Each visit is one dump, capped at 200 pounds, with no trailers, rental trucks, commercial vehicles or combination plates, and air conditioners, humidifiers, tires and propane tanks are not accepted. Bulky waste at the event is mattresses, furniture, rugs and small demolition debris, while electronics, yard waste, textiles and deposit bottles and cans are collected separately, and food debris has to arrive in compostable bags.
Hazardous waste moves through the city's sponsored days
Stamford residents take household hazardous waste to the city-sponsored hazardous waste recycling days, which rotate through neighbouring towns on a published 2026 schedule and include a Stamford day at Rippowam Middle School on 381 High Ridge Road from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. The accepted list covers aerosols, ammonia, antifreeze, bleaches, brake fluid, drain and oven cleaners, gasoline, herbicides, home heating oil, mercury thermometers, moth balls, paint thinners, pesticides, photo and pool chemicals, sealants, smoke detectors, solvents, transmission fluid and wood preservatives, and the Stamford day also took used mattresses through the Mattress Recycling Council. Electronics, propane tanks and motor oil are instead recycled at the Katrina Mygatt Recycling Center.
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 Stamford.
How much does mattress removal cost in Stamford?+
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 Stamford?+
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 is a mattress disposed of in Stamford?+
The bulky waste list at the city's Scofield recycling events names mattresses with furniture, rugs and small demolition debris, with a 200 pound maximum and one load per day for Stamford residents in passenger vehicles. The city's Stamford hazardous waste day also accepted used mattresses through the Mattress Recycling Council.
