A mattress is named on the curbside special collection list, and the Transfer Station also takes four mattresses a month free for a residential utility customer.
City cost & eligibility
From $21 for minimum fee per collection stop for up to three cubic yards at the curb, with $7.50 per additional cubic yard; a residential utility customer may also take up to four mattresses per calendar month to the Transfer Station at no charge, while a non-utility or commercial customer pays a $20 processing fee per mattress or box spring. City of Killeen residential utility accounts for the curbside pickup, or a residential utility account with a current water bill showing active solid waste service for the free monthly Transfer Station allowance.
When & how
Either set the mattress out on the scheduled garbage day for the curbside collection, or take it to the Transfer Station on State Highway 195 during its opening hours inside the four mattress monthly allowance.
Get it ready
Take the bedding off and keep the frame separate, and bring a valid ID and a current City of Killeen water bill showing active solid waste service if the mattress is going to the Transfer Station.
One container, one weekly day and a six bag yard waste limit
Killeen splits into four collection areas with garbage service on a Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday route, and the monthly garbage fee for a 96-gallon container is $19.78. Included in that fee are one weekly collection of garbage or rubbish in the city roll-out container and one weekly collection of yard waste, which is leaves, grass clippings and shrub trimmings in bags only with a six bag limit. Containers go out no earlier than 8 p.m. the evening before and no later than 7 a.m. on the collection day, placed at or near the driveway about four feet from any mailbox, obstacle or other container with the wheels and handle towards the residence.
Bulky material is collected and billed, not booked
All waste materials except the prohibited items that are placed at the curb on the scheduled weekly garbage day are picked up by the city, and the utility account for the address that generated the waste is billed for the service. Placing the material out grants permission for the pickup. The examples the city publishes are furniture such as couches, chairs, mattresses, bed frames and tables, appliances such as water heaters, stoves, washing machines and dryers, other bulky waste such as barbecue grills, toys, ironing boards and lawn furniture, and excess garbage in sturdy plastic bags or boxes under 50 pounds. The charge is a minimum of $21 per collection stop for up to three cubic yards plus $7.50 for each additional cubic yard, and excess garbage reloads during the regular route are $10.00 each.
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 Killeen.
How much does mattress removal cost in Killeen?+
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 Killeen?+
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.
Where does a mattress go in Killeen?+
Two ways. A mattress is named on the city's special collection list, so it can go at the curb on the scheduled garbage day and be billed to the utility account at the published per stop rate. A residential solid waste utility customer can also take up to four mattresses per calendar month to the Transfer Station at no charge, with a valid ID and a current Killeen water bill showing active solid waste service, while a non-utility or commercial customer pays the published processing fee per item there.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Killeen?+
The City of Killeen does, through the Solid Waste Division, with collection split into four areas served on a Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday route. The monthly fee for a 96-gallon container is $19.78 and includes one weekly garbage collection and one weekly bagged yard waste collection with a six bag limit, containers go out no earlier than 8 p.m. the day before and no later than 7 a.m. on the collection day, and the division answers questions and quotes special pickups on 254-501-7785.Official guidance

What is free at the Transfer Station?+
