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.

Bulk waste is collected at the curb on the normal collection day up to six cubic yards, with furniture, mattresses and resident-performed remodelling debris named as acceptable.
City cost & eligibility
Bulk collection runs on the same Solid Waste User Fee that funds the cart programme and the city publishes no per item bulky charge, so confirm the load and the fee status on 757-933-2311 before setting it out.
When & how
Set the bulk waste out after 3 PM the day before the collection day and have it at the curb no later than 7 AM on the collection day, adjoining the property that generated it.
Get it ready
Keep the load to six cubic yards for the collection day, including any vegetative waste, put limbs and brush in a separate pile cut to sections no larger than 6 feet by 6 inches, and use transparent bags for leaves and grass because dark bags are refused. Bags containing household refuse, boxes or plastic tubs filled with debris, tires, styrofoam, paint and liquids are all refused.
Mattresses are named in the city's acceptable bulk waste list, so bedding rides with the curbside bulk collection.
City cost & eligibility
No mattress charge is published and the bulk collection runs on the Solid Waste User Fee, so confirm the piece and the fee status on 757-933-2311 if the property is not already assessed.
When & how
Set the mattress out after 3 PM the day before the collection day and have it at the curb by 7 AM, adjoining the property that generated it.
Get it ready
Keep the bedding dry, flat and clear of vehicles and mailboxes, count it inside the six cubic yard daily limit, and keep it out of the green cart and the recycling cart.
Six cubic yards, one pile for brush and a dark bag rule
Bulk waste goes out after 3 PM the day before the collection day and must be at the curb no later than 7 AM, adjoining the property that generated it. Six cubic yards is the most a resident can put out in one collection day, counting bulk and vegetative waste together, and another six cubic yards can go to the Recovery Operations Center under the same eligibility. Limbs and brush stay in a separate pile and are cut to sections no larger than six feet by six inches, leaves and grass go in transparent bags because dark bags are refused, and boxes or tubs filled with debris are refused as well.
The waste has to belong to the resident and the fee has to be assessed
Bulk waste must be generated by the resident, and a current Solid Waste User Fee has to be assessed on the property before the city will collect it. Debris from anyone other than the resident, from a commercial site, from a vacant property that has been empty more than 60 days, or from a vacant lot is refused, so a load produced by a hired contractor needs a different arrangement.
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 Newport News Public Works Solid Waste Division

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Newport News.
How much does mattress removal cost in Newport News?+
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 Newport News?+
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 much bulk waste can go out at the curb?+
Six cubic yards per resident for each collection day, counting bulk and vegetative waste together, and any additional six cubic yards can be taken to the Recovery Operations Center under the same eligibility. Set the load out after 3 PM the day before and have it at the curb by 7 AM on the collection day, keep brush in its own pile cut to 6 feet by 6 inches, and use transparent bags for leaves and grass.Official guidance
Will the city take a mattress in Newport News?+
Yes. Mattresses are named in the city's acceptable bulk waste list alongside furniture and resident-performed remodelling debris, so bedding goes out with the curbside bulk collection after 3 PM the day before and is at the curb by 7 AM. It counts inside the six cubic yard limit for that collection day.Official guidance
Who collects Newport News garbage and bulk waste?+
The City of Newport News Public Works Solid Waste Division runs both programmes from 513 Oyster Point Road. Household garbage goes in the green cart once a week, bulk waste is collected at the curb on the collection day up to six cubic yards, and the Solid Waste User Fee on the monthly water bill pays for it. Questions go to the 311 contact centre on 757-933-2311.Official guidance
What do I need to take a load to the Recovery Operations Center?+
Proof of Newport News residency, shown at the window before anything is disposed of, and a current Solid Waste User Fee on the property if the load is household trash or tires. The limits are six cubic yards of trash and bulk waste a week and four light duty tires without rims a week, and contractor trash, commercial property waste and dump trailers are refused.Official guidance
