Mattress
Choose twin, full, queen or king / California king. The mattress choice covers the mattress itself. A topper is a different item.

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.

Items do not need to be outside when you book. If your building allows only a short access window, contact us before booking so we can agree on a workable plan.
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.
Confirmation when you book. A heads-up before arrival. Photos when it’s done.
Mattresses are accepted at the city's apartment recycling event, and otherwise the route is confirmed.
City cost & eligibility
The city event lists mattresses among the accepted items for apartment residents with a voucher, and no page publishes a curbside bedding price, so confirm the route and any charge with the city on 253-835-2770 or the hauler.
When & how
At the multi-family event on its posted date, or through a confirmed arrangement for other addresses.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and out of the carts, and bring the postcard voucher as proof of residence if the address is an apartment complex, because the event is limited to multi-family residents.
The drive-thru recycling event is for Federal Way apartment complexes and takes appliances such as microwaves and toasters, mattresses, styrofoam with peanuts bagged, soft plastics including bags, film and packaging, clean wood including furniture and pallets, and metal including furniture, cabinets, bikes, scooters and pots. Refrigerants and hazardous waste are refused, and residents bring the postcard voucher as proof of residence.
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 Federal Way.
How much does mattress removal cost in Federal Way?+
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 Federal Way?+
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 can a mattress go?+
The city's drive-thru recycling event lists mattresses among the accepted items for Federal Way apartment residents who bring their postcard voucher, and residents outside that scope confirm the route with the city or the hauler.Official guidance
What if I did not get a voucher?+
The city asks eligible multi-family residents who did not receive the postcard voucher to email the recycling line for one, since the voucher is the proof of residence at the event.Official guidance
