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.

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.

Free Saturday, Friday mini and paint recycling collection events
Accepted with preparation
Kent hosts free recycling collection events that take material the curb will not: Saturday events in spring, summer and fall that cover appliances, mattresses and bulky material, Friday mini events focused on electronics, shredding and scrap metal, and paint only events under the Washington State Paint Stewardship Program.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. No charge for a resident to drop off the material each event accepts, with paint accepted under the Washington State Paint Stewardship Program in original containers of five gallons or less.
When & how
The Saturday events run on March 7 at Hogan Park, June 13 at Canyon Ridge Middle School and October 10, 2026 at Hogan Park, the Friday mini events run from 9 a.m. to noon on April 10, May 8, July 10, August 14 and September 18, 2026, and the paint only events run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Hogan Park on March 14 and October 17, 2026. Confirm the Saturday event hours with the city before traveling.
Get it ready
Split the load by material. Appliances, CFC appliances, batteries, bulky yard debris, mattresses and box springs without futons, porcelain toilets, tubs and sinks, propane tanks, scrap metal and styrofoam go to a Saturday event, with concrete, brick and rock only at the summer event and passenger tires without rims, limited to ten per vehicle, in the spring and fall only. Televisions, monitors and the rest of the electronics list go to a Friday mini event, and shredding is limited to four legal sized boxes or five paper bags.
Republic Services collects mattresses, furniture and other bulky items from the curb for a fee when the pickup is scheduled in advance with the hauler, and the 2026 residential rate sheet prices the on-call items by type, with white goods other than refrigerators, sofas and chairs and mattresses in one price group and refrigerators, freezers and console televisions in a higher one.
City cost & eligibility
From $79.89 per item for the on-call bulky item collection, with white goods other than refrigerators, sofas and chairs and mattresses at $79.89 each and refrigerators, freezers and console televisions at $119.80 each on the Republic Services residential rate sheet effective January 1, 2026. A household that schedules the pickup with Republic Services at 206-682-9735 and pays the published item charge, because the free curbside clean-up refuses appliances and furniture.
When & how
Call Republic Services at 206-682-9735 to learn more about the bulky item service and schedule a pickup, then put the items out on the day the hauler gives you.
Get it ready
Keep the load to the items the hauler names for the service. Appliances and furniture are refused at the free curbside clean-up, so the on-call pickup is the curbside route for them, and ask the hauler about anything that is not on the sheet before the truck comes.
A mattress and box spring go either on a Republic Services on-call bulky item pickup for a fee or to a free city recycling collection event, where the Saturday events accept mattresses and box springs but not futons. The free curbside clean-up refuses furniture, so it is not the route for a mattress.
City cost & eligibility
From $79.89 per item on the on-call bulky item collection, with mattresses listed at $79.89 each on the Republic Services residential rate sheet effective January 1, 2026. A household that schedules the on-call pickup with Republic Services at 206-682-9735 and pays the published item charge, or a household that brings the set to a free Saturday recycling collection event, where a mattress and box spring are accepted without futons.
When & how
Call Republic Services at 206-682-9735 for the on-call pickup, or bring the set to a Saturday recycling collection event on March 7, June 13 or October 10, 2026 and confirm the event hours with the city before traveling.
Get it ready
Keep the set out of the clean-up week, where furniture is refused, and keep a futon out of the Saturday recycling event, where only mattresses and box springs are accepted. Ask the hauler about a mattress that is still wet or damaged before it goes on the on-call pickup.
Call Republic Services at 206-682-9735 for the on-call bulky item collection, which is how a couch, a refrigerator, a mattress set or another large item leaves the curb for a fee, then put the item out on the day the hauler gives you. Keep appliances and furniture out of the free clean-up week, and ask the hauler about anything that is not on its bulky item sheet before the truck comes.
Split the load between the two event types. A Saturday event at Hogan Park or Canyon Ridge Middle School takes appliances, CFC appliances, batteries, bulky yard debris, mattresses and box springs without futons, porcelain, propane tanks, scrap metal, styrofoam and tires without rims, with concrete, brick and rock in the summer only and passenger tires in the spring and fall only. A Friday mini event from 9 a.m. to noon takes televisions, monitors, computers and the rest of the electronics list, documents for shredding within four legal boxes or five paper bags, and scrap metal. Confirm the Saturday event hours with the city before traveling.
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 Kent.
How much does mattress removal cost in Kent?+
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 Kent?+
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.
When are the Kent recycling collection events in 2026?+
The Saturday events run on March 7 at Hogan Park, June 13 at Canyon Ridge Middle School and October 10 at Hogan Park. The Friday mini events run from 9 a.m. to noon on April 10, May 8, July 10, August 14 and September 18, and the paint only events run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Hogan Park on March 14 and October 17. Confirm the Saturday event hours with the city before traveling.Official guidance
Can I bring a television to a Kent recycling event?+
Yes, but to a Friday mini recycling event rather than a Saturday event. The mini events take televisions of every type including plastic sets, wood console sets and big screens, along with computers, laptops, monitors, tablets, e-readers, cell phones, disc players, fax machines, holiday lights, keyboards, mice, microwaves, remote controls, scanners, VCRs and wires. The Saturday events take electronics but not televisions or monitors, and ecyclewa.org lists drop-off locations between events.Official guidance
How do I schedule a bulky item pickup in Kent?+
Call Republic Services at 206-682-9735 to learn more about the service and schedule the pickup, then put the items out on the day the hauler gives you. The hauler states that it can collect mattresses, furniture and other bulky items for a fee, and the free curbside clean-up is not the route for those because it refuses appliances and furniture.Official guidance
How do I get rid of a mattress in Kent?+
Either on a Republic Services on-call bulky item pickup for a fee, scheduled at 206-682-9735, or free at a Saturday recycling collection event, where a mattress and box spring are accepted but a futon is not. The Saturday events in 2026 fall on March 7, June 13 and October 10, and the free curbside clean-up is not the route because it refuses furniture.Official guidance
What does Kent charge for garbage and bulky item disposal?+
Garbage rates are set together by King County and Republic Services and adjusted every January 1, so the monthly amount follows the size of the garbage cart and is confirmed with the hauler at 206-682-9735. The free Spring and Fall Curbside Clean-Up takes ten units of extra garbage and ten units of yard waste at no charge, a year round bulky item collection is priced by the item on the hauler's 2026 residential rate sheet, and a self haul load at a King County station goes by the county fee schedule with a twenty-five dollar unsecured load fee and a Cleanup LIFT discount of twenty dollars off each type of waste on each visit for a customer with a ProviderOne, EBT or ORCA LIFT card.Official guidance
What will Kent not take at the curb?+
Tires, scrap metal, hazardous waste, appliances and furniture are refused at the free curbside clean-up, and construction and demolition material is refused there too. Appliances and furniture go on a Republic Services on-call pickup for a fee, hazardous waste goes to the King County facility in Factoria, and construction and demolition material is self hauled to a King County transfer station such as Bow Lake in Tukwila.Official guidance
Who handles garbage and disposal in Kent?+
Republic Services collects under contract with the city and handles customer service, billing and service changes on the residential line at 206-682-9735 and the commercial line at 253-872-7220, while King County runs the disposal side through the Bow Lake Recycling and Transfer Station in Tukwila and its solid waste information line at 206-477-4466. The city's environmental pages point a missed pickup at the hauler, and the county runs the household hazardous waste facility in Factoria.Official guidance
Are there recycling or bulky item events in Kent?+
The city runs free recycling collection events every year: Saturday events in spring, summer and fall that take appliances, CFC appliances, batteries, bulky yard debris, mattresses and box springs without futons, porcelain, propane tanks, scrap metal, styrofoam and tires without rims, and Friday mini events that take televisions, computers, monitors and the rest of the electronics list along with documents for shredding and scrap metal. Paint only events run twice a year under the Washington State Paint Stewardship Program, and the year round bulky item route is the Republic Services on-call pickup at 206-682-9735.Official guidance
