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

Special rules apply

A mattress is not named in the published list. The city names furniture and appliances as the common acceptable heavy pickup items, so a mattress is a question for Best Way rather than an assumed acceptance, and nothing publishes a separate mattress fee either way.

City cost & eligibility
No mattress rate is published. Confirm with Best Way at 765-649-7272 whether the mattress counts as furniture on the heavy pickup and what, if anything, it costs, before setting it out.
When & how
If Best Way confirms the piece, the pickup runs on the day after the regular trash day, and the ordinary household trash still goes out in its cart on the usual day.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and off the cart path, and keep it out of the recycling cart, which takes plastic, glass, cardboard, paper and metal cans only. Keep it out of the yard waste stream as well, because mixed loads are refused at the compost site.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Place the cart four feet from the curb, three feet from everything else

The city asks for the cart within four feet of the curb with the wheels away from the street and the arrows on the lid pointing toward the street. The cart also needs three feet of separation from the heavy pickup pile and three feet of clearance from obstacles such as cars, mailboxes and trees, and it is the resident's job to keep it unblocked. Residents are encouraged to set material out the night before, because drivers start early to clear busy streets before the work day traffic begins.

The cart goes out one morning and heavy pickup the next

Anderson runs heavy pickup on the day after the regular trash day, so a household clearing a couch or an appliance sets material out on two consecutive mornings. The household trash goes in its cart on the usual day, and the heavy items go out beside it the following morning. The city caps heavy pickup at as many as five items a week and states that trash outside the carts is not collected unless it is heavy pickup material.

City of Anderson with Best Way Disposal, and the Madison County Recycling Center

Schedule heavy pickup with Best Way Disposal

A household with a couch, a table, a mattress, a washer or dryer, a stove or an exercise machine that will not fit in the cart.

Cost & conditions
The city publishes no heavy pickup rate and no weekly service rate on the pages read, so confirm the items and any charge with Best Way Disposal at 765-649-7272. The scheduled pickup itself runs on the day after the regular trash day.
Arrange it
Call Best Way Disposal at 765-649-7272 to book the pickup, put the everyday trash in its cart on the usual day, and put the heavy items out the following morning, which is the day after the trash day. The city caps the pickup at as many as five items a week.

Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and anything that ever contained refrigerant are excluded, and the city FAQ also excludes electronics and tires from the weekly five item pickup. Remodeling debris, move-in and move-out piles and excess trash outside the carts are outside the programme and need a separate arrangement with Best Way.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Self haul in Anderson has two published destinations. The Madison County Recycling Center at Scatterfield Road and Mounds Road on the southeast corner takes clean and empty metal cans, newspaper, magazines, books, office paper, junk mail, paper food containers, paper ads, clear, brown and green glass, plastics numbered 1 through 7 without plastic bags, and flattened corrugated cardboard. It is also the local route for refrigerant appliances, limited to unusable air conditioners, freezers, refrigerators and dehumidifiers, and for tires in three size classes, with tires on rims charged double and large loads asked to call ahead. It opens on Tuesdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Thursdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on the second and fourth Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 12 noon, and it reserves the right to refuse any item. The second destination is the city's own Anderson Yard and Garden Recycling Center at 2000 West Eighth Street, which the Water Pollution Control Utility operates to turn brush, leaves and grass into compost and mulch. It is open on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. and from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m., takes leaves and grass at no charge with a nominal fee for woody debris, does not require tree limbs to be bundled, and refuses dirt, plastic bags, treated timbers, stumps, rocks, painted wood and trash. Electronics are the gap: the city routes them to the annual City Wide Cleanup drop-off rather than to either site, and the weekly heavy pickup excludes them.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does mattress removal cost in Anderson?

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 Anderson?

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.

Will Best Way take a mattress in Anderson?

The published list names furniture and appliances as the common acceptable heavy pickup items and does not name a mattress either way, so call Best Way Disposal at 765-649-7272 and confirm the piece and any charge. If it is accepted, the pickup runs on the day after the scheduled trash day, and the city caps heavy pickup at as many as five items a week.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Anderson?

Best Way Disposal collects under the city programme. The city states that Anderson does not pick up trash or large items itself, and that residents call Best Way at 765-649-7272 to find the collection day, order a container or arrange a heavy pickup. Best Way is at 1128 W. 66th St. in Anderson and opens on weekdays from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Saturdays from 7 a.m. to 12 p.m.Official guidance

How many large items will Best Way take?

As many as five items a week, when the pickup is arranged for the day after the scheduled trash day. The city FAQ sets that limit and names the exclusions: refrigerators, freezers, electronics and tires do not go in the weekly pickup, and the waste services page adds air conditioners and anything that ever contained refrigerant to the appliance exclusion.Official guidance
