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.
2
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.

A mattress is named on the Frontier bulk and brush list, which runs every two weeks, and a city serviced address uses the heavy trash weeks instead.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Included in the residential garbage service for a Pasadena address, whose charge sits inside the water deposit and monthly water bill, with no separate bulky item fee published for the curbside bulk and heavy trash routes.
When & how
Frontier bulk and brush collection runs every two weeks by assigned service week with the pile out before 7 a.m., and city serviced addresses use heavy trash on the Wednesday of their first and third or second and fourth weeks, with a pile larger than a standard truck out by Monday at 7 a.m. in the scheduled week.
Get it ready
Put the bedding at the curb before 7 a.m. on the scheduled day and keep it clear of mailboxes, vehicles, fences, utility poles and other carts, because the provider requires about three feet of clearance. Confirm which provider serves the address before the pile goes out, because the two bulk schedules are different.
Trash carts, recycling carts and bulk piles go to the curb before 7 a.m. on the scheduled day, with household trash bagged and tied and about three feet of clearance from mailboxes, vehicles, fences, utility poles and other carts.
Frontier collects bulk and brush every two weeks on the assigned service week, and city serviced addresses use heavy trash on the Wednesday of the first and third or second and fourth weeks. A pile larger than a standard garbage truck is out by Monday at 7 a.m. in the scheduled week and collected through that week.
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.
City of Pasadena Sanitation Division with Frontier Waste Solutions and the Pasadena municipal landfill
Curbside bulk and heavy trash
A Pasadena household with small furniture, a mattress, a rug, a television, fence material or another oversized household item from normal residential use.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Included in the residential garbage service whose charges are collected with the water deposit and the monthly water bill, with no separate bulky item fee published for the curbside route.
Arrange it
Use the provider map or the sanitation department at 713-475-7884 to confirm which company serves the address, then put the pile out before 7 a.m. on the assigned Frontier service week or the city heavy trash week with about three feet of clearance.
Tires, household hazardous waste, e-waste, white goods and appliances, and debris from commercial contractors or service providers are refused, and a pile larger than a standard garbage truck is collected across the scheduled week rather than on one day.
Pasadena households can haul their own residential load to the municipal landfill at 550 Old Genoa-Red Bluff Road in Houston, which takes one load of up to two cubic yards a month free for a resident who brings a valid Texas driver licence and a current original Pasadena water bill with a matching address, no copies, with the load no higher than the top of a pickup truck frame and covered by a tarp, because an uncovered load costs ten dollars more. Anything over two cubic yards starts at a 140 dollar minimum charge, commercial refuse is not allowed under the residential allowance, the privilege expires 20 days from the water bill due date, and access requires an OSHA hard hat and safety vest that can be bought at the landfill. The landfill is open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and Saturday from 7 to 10:30 a.m. For anything that should not be hauled, the city sanitation department schedules appliance, tire, computer and household hazardous waste pickups at 713-475-7884, with household chemicals limited to ten gallons or fifty pounds per collection.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Pasadena.
How much does mattress removal cost in Pasadena?+
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 Pasadena?+
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.
How does a mattress go out in Pasadena?+
On the bulk and brush pickup, which runs every two weeks for a Frontier serviced address and takes mattresses, and on the heavy trash weeks for a city serviced address. Put the mattress out before 7 a.m. on the scheduled day and keep three feet of clearance from mailboxes, vehicles and other carts.Official guidance
What does garbage service cost?+
The garbage charge is collected with the water deposit and the monthly water bill rather than billed separately, and the current rate page states that water, wastewater and garbage rates rose 1.2 percent effective October 1, 2025, with the fiscal year 2026 schedule of rates published as a document. City brown garbage bags cost 25 dollars a bundle and a city issued rolling bin is free on request at 713-475-5555.Official guidance
