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.

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 the city collection page nor the landfill page names a mattress, so the route and the acceptance have to be confirmed before the piece leaves the property.
City cost & eligibility
No Columbus page read here names mattresses in the bulky programme or in the landfill categories, so confirm the item with 311 at (706) 653-4000. If the city sends it to a landfill, the mattress would be charged at the published household garbage rate of $85.00 per ton as a single type load.
When & how
Call 311 at (706) 653-4000 to confirm whether a mattress goes on a scheduled bulk pickup or has to be hauled to a landfill, then follow the route the city gives.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress out of the city cart and off a mixed pile, and confirm the item before the pickup day, because the city's bulky item list is not published.
Bulk solid waste and large yard piles need a call to 311 at (706) 653-4000 for a scheduled pickup, and the city will not collect a mixed pile, so keep the material to one type. Limbs cut for collection have to be under four feet long and under six inches across, and a cut down tree needs a separate Tree for Fee request that the resident has to ask for and authorise.
Both landfills take waste only from Muscogee County or Columbus with proof of residency, and a contractor also has to show proof of where the job is done. Loads have to be one type of material, because mixed loads are not permitted and the site does not separate for you, and paint and batteries are prohibited, with empty or completely dried paint cans allowed after the described solidification procedure.
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 Columbus.
How much does mattress removal cost in Columbus?+
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 Columbus?+
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 Columbus take a mattress?+
No Columbus page read here names mattresses in either the bulky programme or the landfill categories, so the item has to be confirmed. Call 311 at (706) 653-4000 to ask whether a mattress goes out on a scheduled bulk pickup, or haul it to a city landfill where it would be charged at the published household garbage rate as a single type load.Official guidance
