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.

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.

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 are named in the city's bulk waste definition, so bedding goes out with the weekly out-of-cart collection and no separate appointment or fee is published.
City cost & eligibility
The mattress is inside the out-of-cart service covered by the monthly solid waste fee, so no separate mattress price is published. Confirm the current monthly rate and the ten item cap with the city on 3-1-1 or 225-389-3090 if more than one bed is going out at once.
When & how
Put the mattress and box spring out on the weekly out-of-cart collection day by 4 a.m. There is no mattress appointment to book.
Get it ready
Keep bedding unbagged and in the bulk pile rather than the bagged leaf pile, keep it dry, and count each piece separately against the ten item cap.
The monthly solid waste fee covers twice-a-week garbage for one cart, once-a-week recycling and once-a-week out-of-cart collection. Carts have to be City-Parish carts carrying the seal and a serial number, the lids have to be closed or the cart is not collected, carts need 3 feet of clearance from anything else, and they go out with the metal bar facing the street and the wheels toward the house. The garbage collection page says carts must be in place by 4 a.m. while the services page says recycling carts must be in place by 5 a.m., so the earlier time is the safe one. Extra garbage carts cost 7 dollars a month each and are billed on the same solid waste, sewer and water bill. Service does not run on New Year's Day, Thanksgiving Day or Christmas Day, and a holiday on a collection day moves service to the next scheduled day unless the city notifies residents otherwise.
Large items go out with the weekly out-of-cart collection
Bulk waste and yard waste share one weekly out-of-cart collection, and the city sorts them for the resident. Bulk waste is defined as items that are hard to containerize in a garbage cart, naming furniture, large household items, mattresses, water heaters, tires, white goods and lawnmowers, and it must not be bagged. Yard waste is bagged leaves and grass with brush and trimmings bundled instead, and the three kinds go in distinct piles. Crews collect at most ten out-of-cart items per collection day and only three of those can be bulk waste or recyclables, so a larger clear-out takes more than one week or a private contractor. Brush, branches and tree trimmings cannot exceed 5 feet in length, 6 inches in diameter or 40 pounds per item, and a separate bulky recyclable stream takes white goods such as stoves, washers and refrigerators plus up to four automobile tires at a time.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Baton Rouge.
How much does mattress removal cost in Baton Rouge?+
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 Baton Rouge?+
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.
Do I need an appointment for a mattress pickup?+
No. The city names mattresses in its bulk waste definition, and bulk waste goes out with the weekly out-of-cart collection rather than a booked pickup, as long as it is left unbagged and the address stays inside the ten item out-of-cart cap for that day.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Baton Rouge?+
The City-Parish Department of Environmental Services manages contracted garbage and recycling services for East Baton Rouge Parish, and the monthly solid waste fee covers twice-a-week garbage for one cart, once-a-week recycling and once-a-week out-of-cart collection. Extra garbage carts cost 7 dollars a month. Missed pickups and cart problems go through 3-1-1, the office on 225-389-3090 or after hours on 225-389-2070.Official guidance
How much will the crew take at once?+
A maximum of ten out-of-cart items per collection day, and only three of those can be bulk waste or recyclables, with the rest expected to be bagged leaves, grass or bundled brush. Anything above the cap waits for the following out-of-cart collection day or goes to a private contractor. Brush, branches and trimmings are limited to 5 feet in length, 6 inches in diameter and 40 pounds per item.Official guidance
