Mattress
Choose twin, full, queen or king / California king. The mattress choice covers the mattress itself. A topper is a different item.

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.

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.

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.
A mattress or box spring is accepted during the clean-up weeks only when it is wrapped and sealed in plastic, and unwrapped bedding is specifically refused.
City cost & eligibility
The township publishes the clean-up dates and the wrapping requirement but no fee, and a mattress can also be booked on the special pick-up line at 732-248-7288, so confirm the charge on whichever route the household uses.
When & how
Wrap and seal the mattress and box spring in plastic, then set them out for the clean-up week that matches the recycling section, no sooner than 48 hours before the collection and before 6:00 A.M. on the day, or book a special pick-up at 732-248-7288.
Get it ready
The plastic wrap is the condition of collection: unwrapped mattresses and box springs are on the unacceptable list and will be left at the kerb. Keep the bedding dry before it is wrapped, and keep box springs paired with their mattress rather than stacked loose with other material.
Edison garbage collection follows the municipal collection areas, and residents in private collection areas deal with their own hauler. Only the supplied containers are acceptable, and a cardboard, paper or plywood drum used as a container is itself classified as garbage and taken away. The stream is household waste only: building and demolition material such as garage doors, shingles and construction lumber is refused, along with textiles, fixtures, trees, earth or stone, refuse and industrial waste, and dirt, stone, wood, ashes, sawdust and metal must not go into a garbage can. Recyclables belong in the separate recycling container, and an obstructed can is not collected.
White goods, metal and large bulky items are booked, not put out on a regular collection day. The recycling regulations send residents to the public works office at 732-248-7288 to arrange the pickup, or to the township citizen service request form, and the garbage regulations make the order of operations explicit: do not put the items out until the call has been made, because material placed at the kerb before a confirmation number is received will not be collected and its disposal becomes the homeowner's responsibility. Leaves, lawn and garden refuse, grass clippings, brush and tree limbs, hazardous material, heavy material and rugs are all excluded from regular collection days as well.
Spring and autumn clean-up weeks run by recycling section
The township opens two clean-up windows a year, one in the spring and one in the autumn, each assigned by recycling section to a Saturday. Collections begin at 6:00 A.M., and material has to be at the kerb before that and no sooner than 48 hours ahead of the collection date. The accepted list covers furniture, box springs and mattresses wrapped and sealed in plastic, metals, up to four interior doors, up to two vinyl or metal window frames without glass, one each of a toilet, tank and metal tub with the tank separated, carpet limited to one room or ten rolls under 5 feet and 50 pounds, up to four sections of fencing, washers, dryers, microwaves, electronics including televisions, printers and computers, wrapped glass under 50 pounds and a refrigerator with the doors removed. Branches, unwrapped bedding, pallets, construction material, uninspected hot water heaters, recyclables, paint, tires, glass over 50 pounds and textiles are refused.
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.
An Edison household with white goods, metal or a large bulky item that will not be taken on a regular collection day.
Cost & conditions
The township publishes the pick-up telephone number but no rate for a special pick-up, so the charge is confirmed when the booking is made at 732-248-7288 rather than quoted here.
Arrange it
Call the public works office at 732-248-7288, or file a citizen service request, wait for the confirmation number to be issued, and only then place the material at the kerb.
Nothing may be placed out before the confirmation number is received, because unconfirmed material is not collected and its disposal becomes the homeowner's responsibility. Construction material, recyclables, paint and hazardous waste, tires and textiles are refused.
An Edison household with furniture, wrapped bedding, appliances, carpet, fencing, fixtures, electronics or wrapped glass that can wait for the section's clean-up Saturday.
Cost & conditions
The township publishes the clean-up dates and the accepted and refused lists but no fee, so confirm whether the clean-up week carries a charge before relying on it.
Arrange it
Find the recycling section for the address, set the material out no sooner than 48 hours before the assigned Saturday and before 6:00 A.M. on the collection day, and expect the crew to start promptly at 6:00 A.M.
The accepted list sets quantity limits, including four interior doors, two window frames, one each of a toilet, tank and metal tub, carpet limited to one room or ten rolls, four fencing sections and wrapped glass under 50 pounds, and unwrapped mattresses, construction material, pallets, textiles, recyclables, paint, tires and uninspected hot water heaters are refused.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Edison.
How much does mattress removal cost in Edison?+
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 Edison?+
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.
What has to happen before an Edison mattress goes out?+
It has to be wrapped and sealed in plastic. The township clean-up lists accept box springs and mattresses wrapped and sealed in plastic and put unwrapped mattresses and box springs on the unacceptable list, so an uncovered mattress will be left where it stands. Set the wrapped bedding out for the clean-up week that matches the recycling section, no sooner than 48 hours before and before 6:00 A.M. on the collection day, or book the special pick-up line at 732-248-7288.Official guidance
Who collects Edison garbage and recycling?+
Edison Township public works collects household garbage and single stream recycling in the municipal collection areas, and residents in private collection areas are told to contact their own haulers for both schedules and questions. Only supplied containers are acceptable, recyclables must be kept in a separate container and out of the garbage, and the township is divided into 10 recycling sections collected every other week.Official guidance
Why can't I just leave bulky items at the kerb in Edison?+
Because the township explicitly does not collect bulk items on regular collection days, and because the garbage rules say nothing may be placed at the kerb before a special pick-up is arranged. Book through the public works office at 732-248-7288, wait for the confirmation number, and only then put the material out, because anything set out ahead of that confirmation is not collected and its disposal becomes the homeowner's responsibility.Official guidance
What are the limits during an Edison clean-up week?+
The clean-up weeks run by recycling section on assigned Saturdays with collection starting at 6:00 A.M., and material has to be out before that and no sooner than 48 hours ahead. The quantity limits are four interior doors, two vinyl or metal window frames without glass, one each of a toilet, tank and metal tub with the tank separated, carpet limited to one room or ten rolls under 5 feet and 50 pounds, four sections of fencing, and wrapped glass under 50 pounds. Mattresses must be wrapped and sealed in plastic, refrigerators must have the doors removed, and branches, pallets, construction material, textiles, recyclables, paint, tires and uninspected hot water heaters are refused.Official guidance
