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.
Frame or adjustable base
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.
Mattresses are not named on Carmel's bulky item list, which gives household furniture, some appliances and bicycles as the examples, so bedding has to be confirmed with the hauler rather than treated as a published service.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes a 20.00 per bulky item fee with prior arrangement, but its list does not name mattresses, so confirm whether bedding is collected as a bulky item and what it costs with Republic Services at 317-917-7300.
When & how
Call at least 48 hours before the normal pickup day if the hauler confirms the item, and keep the mattress out of the cart in the meantime.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and whole, ask whether a box spring counts as a separate item at the per item rate, and do not set bedding out until the pickup is arranged.
Bulky items need arranging, and the fee is per item
Carmel's weekly collection is for carts, so furniture, some appliances and bicycles need a bulky pickup arranged with Republic Services at least 48 hours before the normal pickup day. The bulky service adds 20.00 per item and bulky landscape waste is priced separately at 40.00 per pickup, so confirm the items and the total before the pickup is booked.
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.
City of Carmel Utilities, Republic Services and Hamilton County

Arrange it
Call Republic Services at 317-917-7300, Monday to Friday 7:00am to 5:00pm, and arrange the pickup for the confirmed day.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Carmel.
How much does mattress removal cost in Carmel?+
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 Carmel?+
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 Carmel pick up a mattress as a bulky item?+
The city's bulky list names household furniture, some appliances and bicycles rather than mattresses, so call Republic Services at 317-917-7300 and confirm the item before it goes out. If it is accepted, the bulky service adds 20.00 per item and requires at least 48 hours of notice before the normal pickup day.Official guidance
