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

Bedding is not named in the district bulk, white good or toter lists, so the piece is confirmed before it goes to the curb.

City cost & eligibility
The district publishes no rate for bedding and does not name mattresses among the bulk items it lists, so call the sanitation department on 765-747-4865 and confirm whether the piece rides the weekly bulk collection or needs another route.
When & how
If the district confirms the piece, it goes out with the bulk items on the regular trash day and is picked up by the secondary truck.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and wrapped so the crew can lift it, and set it out with the bulk pile rather than on its own. Ask when you call whether a box spring or a bed frame counts as part of the same item, and keep the pile clear of poles, mailboxes and fences.

Right item.
Right place.

For your Dropcurb pickup

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.

Arrange it
Set everything out on the regular trash day, keep household waste bagged inside a district toter with the lid closed, and place bulk items and separated limbs at the curb where the secondary and organic trucks can reach them.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Muncie collects everything through the Sanitary District, and the district makes the curb do most of the work. Trash, recycling, bulk items, tree limbs and white goods are all weekly services, so a sofa, a refrigerator or a stack of limbs needs no appointment, only the right pile in the right place. Household waste goes bagged inside a district toter with the lid closed, bulk items and appliances sit at the curb for a secondary truck, and tree limbs, brush and leaves go in their own pile for a separate organic truck that keeps the material out of the landfill. Leaves add a bagged collection each fall, and the Christmas season brings a window in which extra bags on the ground are picked up with the regular route. What the curb will not take goes to East Central Recycling on East Centennial Avenue, where every district customer has an annual allowance covering 2,000 pounds of household trash along with six car tires, hazardous household waste and electronic goods, and where construction material is accepted with a charge.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does mattress removal cost in Muncie?

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 Muncie?

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 the district take a mattress?

Confirm it first on 765-747-4865, because the district names furniture, tree limbs and appliances in its bulk collection and does not name bedding anywhere in the guidelines. If it is accepted the mattress goes out with the bulk items on the regular trash day.Official guidance

Who collects the waste in Muncie?

The Muncie Sanitary District, which runs trash, recycling, bulk item, tree limb and white good collection as weekly curbside services for its customers, with the district office at 300 N. High Street and the sanitation department on 765-747-4865 for toters and service questions.Official guidance

How often is trash picked up?

Every day of the year except Christmas, according to the district's pickup schedule page, with each household on its own trash day. Bulk items, tree limbs and white goods ride the same trash day on separate trucks, and toters return to the property by 7 p.m. the same day.Official guidance

What happens if an item is not collected?

The district leaves a green missed trash sticker on the item explaining why it was not collected, which usually means it was not accessible, was not inside a toter or did not meet the guidelines. The district asks that the problem be fixed promptly so the item is collected the following week.Official guidance

What if the toter is damaged or missing?

Toters are district property that the customer is responsible for, and a toter damaged through no fault of the resident is repaired or replaced at no charge. Request a new toter, a replacement or a new lid through the sanitation department on 765-747-4865, and lease additional toters through the sewage utility office.Official guidance

Where does cardboard go?

Broken down cardboard boxes belong in the blue recycling toter, and they can also be dropped off directly at the East Central Recycling roll off recycling dumpster during regular business hours. Cardboard that is not broken down is not collected as part of the curbside service.Official guidance
