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.

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.
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.

On-call bulky collection with a free yearly allowance
Accepted with preparation
Items too large for the bins are handled through an on-call bulky item collection rather than a fixed bulky week, and once each calendar year a SeaTac residential customer may request a free collection of up to three bulky items such as appliances, couches or large chairs.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Once each calendar year a SeaTac residential customer may request a free curbside collection of up to three bulky items such as appliances, couches or large chairs. Beyond that allowance the 2026 on-call rates apply: $26.49 for a non-refrigerant appliance, $42.40 for a refrigerator or freezer, and $52.99 for a sofa, chair, mattress or box spring.
When & how
On the date arranged with Recology when the collection is booked on 206.767.1166.
Get it ready
Put the items at the curb on the arranged day, remove the doors from a refrigerator or freezer before collection, and use the yearly free allowance for up to three items before paying the on-call rates for anything beyond it. Once a year a household may also put up to one cubic yard of garbage at the curb as long as each item, bag or box is no larger than three feet by three feet.
Mattresses and box springs are named in the bulky example list and priced on the on-call rate card alongside sofas, so a mattress has a published municipal price rather than an unknown one.
City cost & eligibility
$52.99 per mattress or box spring on the 2026 SeaTac on-call bulky waste rate card. The rate sits on the same line as sofas and chairs, and up to three bulky items a year are collected free when the household uses its yearly allowance. Doors-off does not apply to bedding.
When & how
On the date arranged with Recology after booking on 206.767.1166, or inside the yearly free allowance of three bulky items.
Get it ready
Set the mattress or box spring at the curb on the arranged day and keep it dry. The pair is priced as one line on the rate card, and the free yearly allowance can cover it if the household has not used the allowance yet.
An on-call bulky collection is booked with the hauler, and the items go at the curb on the arranged day. Doors have to be removed from refrigerators and freezers before collection, and the once a year allowance covers up to three bulky items such as appliances, couches or large chairs.
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.

Self-hauling from SeaTac runs to the county facility in Tukwila. The Bow Lake Recycling and Transfer Station takes recycling and garbage, charging by material and weight, with payment by Visa, Mastercard, Discover, cash or Apple Pay, a 40 foot combined vehicle and trailer limit, and a $25 charge for any unsecured load under the county code. ProviderOne, EBT and ORCA LIFT customers may qualify for the Cleanup LIFT discount, the recycling area keeps different hours from the transfer station building, and a recycling area project that started on June 22 moved some containers. The city also runs one day recycling collection events at Sunset Park, which have taken packing peanuts, plastic bags, light bulbs, electronics, propane tanks, cardboard, scrap metal, appliances, oil filters, antifreeze, toilets and sinks, with paint handled at a separate event. For most households the cheapest route stays the curbside service: the yearly free collection of up to three bulky items, and the published on-call rates beyond it.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in SeaTac.
How much does mattress removal cost in SeaTac?+
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 SeaTac?+
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.
Does SeaTac give residents a free bulky pickup?+
Yes, once each calendar year a SeaTac residential customer may request a free curbside collection of up to three bulky items such as appliances, couches or large chairs, booked on 206.767.1166. Beyond that, the on-call rates apply per item, and doors have to be removed from a refrigerator or freezer before it is collected.Official guidance
