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.

Ready for pickup

From your bedroom to an easy pickup.

Book first. Then get the mattress to an accessible outdoor spot before pickup. Dropcurb handles loading and haul-away from there.

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.

Text us about your setup
  1. Check what your delivery includes.

    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.

Mattresses and box springs

Accepted with preparation

Mattresses are named as bulk items collected with the weekly pickup, and the flyer requires them to be dry and covered in wet weather.

City cost & eligibility
A mattress rides the weekly bulk collection included in the residential contract and no mattress rate is published, so confirm any special handling with Waste Management at 815-280-7854.
When & how
Put the mattress out with the regular weekly collection, at the curb by 7 a.m. on the scheduled day.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and cover it if rain or snow is forecast, as the flyer requires, and keep it out of the recycling cart.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

For bulk items and appliances

Bulk items go out with the regular weekly collection, and the flyer names couches, small tables, mattresses and chairs. Furniture and mattresses must be dry and covered when rain or snow is forecast, carpet must be cut and rolled into four foot lengths secured with tape or string and under 50 lbs per roll, and appliances such as refrigerators, washers, dryers, AC units and dehumidifiers are collected the same week, collected separately, with the doors removed from refrigerators and freezers. A hot water tank is not regular trash and needs a White Goods pickup.

City of Joliet with Waste Management

Put the bulk item out with the weekly pickup

A Joliet household with a couch, a mattress, a chair or another bulk item that the weekly collection can take.

Cost & conditions
Bulk items are collected with the weekly service that is part of the residential contract, and no separate bulky item rate is published, so confirm any oversized piece with Waste Management at 815-280-7854.
Arrange it
Set the items out at the curb by 7 a.m. on the regular collection day, keeping furniture and mattresses dry and covered in wet weather and cutting carpet into four foot rolls.

The weekly cycle does not take large quantities of construction and demolition material, pallets, dirt, stone, concrete, rock, fencing, hazardous waste or electronics, and materials from a flood, fire, move or eviction need a scheduled special collection with fees.

Open the program flyer

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Joliet's program is built around the weekly curb, because Waste Management takes garbage, recycling, yard waste, bulk items and large household appliances all on the same scheduled collection day at different times. Carts go out by 7 a.m. with the handle away from the roadway and three feet apart, and the flyer requires furniture and mattresses to be dry, so anything upholstered needs covering when rain or snow is coming. Appliances such as refrigerators, washers, dryers, AC units and dehumidifiers are collected separately and recycled, with the doors removed from refrigerators and freezers, and a hot water tank has to be scheduled as a White Goods pickup instead of going out as trash. Household hazardous waste, electronics and hard to recycle items go through the At Your Door special collection, which the city says will not collect them from the curb, and the flyer lists the accepted electronics, paint, automotive, battery, garden, pool and mercury items along with the exclusions. Large quantities of construction and demolition material, pallets, dirt, stone, concrete, rock, fencing and material left by a flood, fire, move or eviction are restricted from the weekly cycle, so those loads need a rented container, the city's Bagster route, or a scheduled special collection, while up to four car or small truck tires without rims and no larger than 17 inches can go out on the scheduled recycling day.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Joliet.

How much does mattress removal cost in Joliet?

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 Joliet?

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.
