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.

A mattress or box spring is collected on the city bulk route by appointment and is priced as its own line on the city schedule.
City cost & eligibility
$10 per mattress or box spring, plus a hauling fee for each haul of up to two cubic yards. City of Troy residential property with a bulk appointment booked through the Public Works dispatcher. Commercial rental, tax exempt and not-for-profit properties are not eligible.
When & how
Book the pickup with the dispatcher at 518-270-4579 and set the mattress out only after 6 p.m. the night before the confirmed date.
Get it ready
Count the box spring separately when you call, because each piece is priced. Keep the mattress out of the weekly garbage container, which only takes bagged household waste, and do not set it out before the appointment is confirmed.
Nothing bulky goes out without a confirmed appointment
Every bulk item has to be scheduled with the Public Works dispatcher at 518-270-4579 or through the city's online request form, which requires a phone number. If a pile appears at the curb or in the alley without a request, the property owner receives a removal charge and a penalty under the city littering code.
Set out the night before the confirmed date, not earlier
Items may not be placed at the curb until after 6 p.m. the night before the confirmed pickup date, and household garbage follows a similar window, out after 7 p.m. the night before or before 6 a.m. on the collection day. Garbage has to be in the city-provided water-tight container rather than in a bag, and recyclables go out in the city blue container in the same window.
The bill charges each individual item on the published pricing sheet and adds a hauling fee for every haul removed, where one haul is up to two cubic yards no matter the dimensions. Two appliances side by side count as one haul, so grouping the pieces keeps the hauling part of the bill down. Bills go to the property owner and are due 30 days from the bill date, and billing questions go to the Office of General Services at 518-279-7141.
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 Troy NY.
How much does mattress removal cost in Troy NY?+
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 Troy NY?+
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.
