Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Bloomington.
How much does mattress removal cost in Bloomington?+
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 Bloomington?+
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 a Bloomington mattress leave the curb?+
With the bulk pile on your alternating bulk week, which runs every other week and alternates with recycling. The first loader bucket of about 2.5 cubic yards is included in the monthly cart fee, second and subsequent buckets in the same week are charged per loader bucket, and the pile goes out no earlier than 2 p.m. the day before and no later than 6 a.m. on the pickup day.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Bloomington?+
