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.

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.

The City collects large items at the curb during its annual Spring Cleanup, as long as bulky items stay separate from smaller or bagged material.
City cost & eligibility
The City does not publish a collection fee for Spring Cleanup. Call Public Works at 270-737-7890 if you need to confirm whether a charge applies to your property.
When & how
Spring Cleanup junk and debris ran March 30 through May 1 in 2026, with crews starting in Area One and returning to each area as often as they could during April.
Get it ready
Place bulky items in an open area within ten feet of the edge of the street, clear of traffic and away from overhead power lines, and keep large items separate from smaller or bagged items.
For Spring Cleanup, place items near the street without interfering with traffic, keep bulky items in an open area within ten feet of the edge of the street, and avoid placing anything under overhead power lines. Do not mix brush with the cleanup pile.
During the fall leaf program, place loose and bagged leaves as close to the street as possible while avoiding drainage facilities and traffic lanes, use clear plastic bags under 50 pounds, and separate brush and other debris from the loose leaf piles.
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.
Households clearing out large items, furniture and bagged junk in one pass, plus a scheduled appliance week.
Cost & conditions
The City does not publish a collection fee. Call Public Works at 270-737-7890 to confirm whether a charge applies to your property.
Arrange it
Follow the area schedule, place items according to the placement rules, and schedule appliances by calling 270-737-7890 during the appliance week.
Garbage, hazardous materials, liquids such as paints, oil and antifreeze, construction debris, tires and automobiles are not collected, brush is not part of the cleanup pile, and appliances containing refrigerant need a tag showing it was removed.
Elizabethtown residents with brush or cut trees too large for the curbside rotation can deliver them to the Public Works Facility at 1600 Nicholas Street, where the City accepts material over twelve inches in diameter or five feet in length that was generated inside the city limits. Contractors working inside the city are required to remove oversized debris themselves or deliver it to the same location. For anything the cleanup and yard programs do not cover, including construction debris, tires, electronics and scrap metal, the City publishes no facility, so call Public Works at 270-737-7890 before hauling.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Elizabethtown.
How much does mattress removal cost in Elizabethtown?+
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 Elizabethtown?+
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 are the Spring Cleanup areas divided?+
The City splits the cleanup into four areas: west of US 31-W and north of KY 1357; west of US 31-W, south of KY 1357 and north of the CSX railroad; east of US 31-W and north of KY 251; and east of US 31-W and south of KY 251.
