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.
You’re in the loop. Until it’s gone.

No Mentor page names a mattress, so the set has to be cleared with Waste Management or the city before it goes out, and the county landfill takes it by weight if the city will not.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no mattress rule and no per item bulk charge because bulk collection sits inside the quarterly Waste Management service, and the county landfill prices a mattress as household waste by the load or by the ton, so confirm the route with Waste Management at (866) 797-9018 or the city at (440) 974-5781 first.
When & how
Ask Waste Management whether the set rides the weekly bulk collection, and if it does, put it out by 7:00 A.M. on the collection day. Otherwise take it to the Lake County Solid Waste Facility at 2039 Blase Nemeth Road between 7:00 AM and 3:30 PM on a weekday or 9:00 AM and 1:00 PM on a Saturday.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and whole, take the frame and headboard off because they are separate pieces, and keep it clear of the cart and the recycling bin. Never put bedding in the recycling bin, because the curbside programme takes only the listed recyclables.
Out by 7 a.m. on the collection day and back in the next morning
Material goes to the curb no later than 7:00 A.M. on the collection day and no earlier than 3:00 P.M. the day before, and cans and containers come off the curb before 7 A.M. the day after. Garbage, bulk items and yard waste arrive on separate vehicles that can come at different times between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., and there are no callbacks, so a pile stays out until the right truck reaches it. A holiday that falls on a weekday pushes the whole schedule one day, while a weekend holiday does not.
A county trip has its own counters and its own hours
The Lake County Solid Waste Facility at 2039 Blase Nemeth Road in Painesville takes household waste by the load or by weight, runs free mixed recycling bins and a free residential electronics drop-off, charges per television and monitor, and takes tires without rims at six maximum per trip. Universal waste, including paint, batteries, bulbs, cleaners and pool chemicals, is accepted only on Saturdays from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm and only from residents, in original containers. The scale house is open Monday to Friday 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM and Saturday 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, with holiday closures published separately.
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.

Put bulk items out with the weekly Waste Management collection
A Mentor household on a public residential street with an appliance, a piece of furniture or another large item that will not fit in the garbage container.
Cost & conditions
No Mentor page names a mattress, so confirm with Waste Management at (866) 797-9018 or the city at (440) 974-5781 whether the set rides the weekly bulk collection, which carries no per item charge inside the quarterly service; otherwise the county landfill takes it as household waste by the load or by weight.
Arrange it
Set the items at the curb on the regular collection day, no later than 7:00 A.M. and no earlier than 3:00 P.M. the day before, and leave them out until the separate bulk truck arrives. Waste Management customer service is at (866) 797-9018 and the city Public Works number is (440) 974-5781.
The set goes out only if the bulk collection accepts it, at the curb by 7:00 A.M. and no earlier than 3:00 P.M. the day before, and there are no callbacks, so a refused set has to be hauled to the county landfill instead.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Mentor.
How much does mattress removal cost in Mentor?+
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 Mentor?+
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 Mentor take a mattress at the curb?+
No city page names a mattress, so ask Waste Management at (866) 797-9018 or the city at (440) 974-5781 whether the set can ride the weekly bulk collection, which covers appliances, furniture and other large items at no extra item charge. If the answer is no, the Lake County Solid Waste Facility at 2039 Blase Nemeth Road takes household waste for a car load charge that starts at the minimum rate or by the ton for a heavier load.Official guidance
When are bulk items collected in Mentor?+
Every week, on the same day as garbage and recycling, by a separate truck that runs between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Appliances, furniture and other large items that will not fit in a container are eligible at no extra item charge inside the quarterly residential service billed by Waste Management. Everything goes out no later than 7:00 A.M. and no earlier than 3:00 P.M. the day before collection, there are no callbacks, and a weekday holiday pushes the whole schedule one day.Official guidance
What does Mentor's curbside service cost?+
Garbage and recycling are billed at the published quarterly rate by Waste Management, and bulk items, yard waste and the weekly garbage collection are all inside that service rather than charged per item. Service covers single family homes on public residential streets, while condominiums and apartments on private roads are outside the programme and must arrange their own hauler. Waste Management customer service is at (866) 797-9018 and the city Public Works number is (440) 974-5781.Official guidance
