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.

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.

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.

Mattresses and box springs are named directly in the city's allowed refuse list, so bedding is collected on the same biweekly allowance as furniture.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Residential premises eligible for city refuse collection, with advance authorization, inside the two cubic yard biweekly limit, and with the resident doing the set out rather than a contractor.
When & how
Get authorization first, then put the units out on the collection week for the address.
Get it ready
Count the mattress and box spring inside the two cubic yard pile, keep them dry and out of the recycling bin, and keep them off the county route, where bulky waste carries a transportation fee at three of the four convenience centers.
Since August 17, 2020, Dalton residents must have advance authorization to put rubbish or refuse out for collection, either by calling Dalton Public Works or by filing a request through SeeClickFix online or in the mobile app. The free allowance is two cubic yards, about a long-bed pickup truck bed, every two weeks, the pickup alternates between the northern and southern halves of the city, and the work has to be the homeowner's own because a private contractor must dispose of its material itself.
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.

Use the authorized curbside refuse collection
A single-family home or small multi-family property in Dalton with furniture, a mattress, white goods, electronics, dried paint, bicycles or similar items.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Residential premises eligible for city collection, with advance authorization from Dalton Public Works or through SeeClickFix, limited to two cubic yards every two weeks and to work the homeowner does personally.
Arrange it
Request authorization, then put the pile out for the collection week that applies to the address, since the city alternates between the north and south halves each week.
Construction material, tires, liquid paint, batteries, hazardous items, cardboard and loose packing material cannot go in the pile, apartments receive no refuse pickup, and the two cubic yard limit applies every two weeks.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Dalton.
How much does mattress removal cost in Dalton?+
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 Dalton?+
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.
Does Dalton pick up mattresses?+
Yes. Mattresses and box springs are named in the city's list of items allowed for refuse pickup, inside the free two cubic yard biweekly allowance, provided the resident has advance authorization. A county convenience center also takes bulky waste such as mattresses, with a transportation fee at three of the four locations and no fee at the Old Dixie Highway site.Official guidance

What can go out with the Dalton refuse pile?+
Household furniture, mattresses and box springs, white goods such as standard appliances, electronic waste, dried paint, bicycles and other common outdoor items that are not specifically prohibited. The pile is capped at two cubic yards every two weeks, and cardboard is not part of it because boxes have to be broken down in the recycling bin.Official guidance
What does the county charge for bulky items?+
A transportation fee averaging five dollars per bulky item is applied at the Westside, M.L. King Boulevard and McGaughey Chapel centers, and there is no bulky item fee at the Old Dixie Highway location.
