Mattress Disposal & Removal in San Diego

What our mattress pickup in San Diego includes

We take every part of the bed, in any condition:

• Mattresses of any size — twin to California king, memory foam, pillow-top, futon and crib
• Box springs, bed frames, headboards and bunk beds (we'll disassemble frames if needed)
• Stained, torn or bed-bug-wrapped mattresses (sealed in plastic, please)
• Carry-out from upstairs bedrooms, apartments, condos and tight hallways

Mattress disposal in San Diego: why it can't go in the trash

San Diego trash carts and curbside pickup don't take mattresses, and dumping one in an alley or canyon can bring a city fine. California runs a statewide mattress recycling program, so the right place for an old mattress is a recycler that breaks it down into steel, foam, fiber and wood.

That's where we take yours. Mattress recycling in San Diego keeps roughly 75% of each mattress out of the landfill — the springs become scrap steel and the foam and fiber are reused. If you can transport it yourself, participating drop-off sites accept mattresses free; if you can't, we'll handle it.

Mattress removal prices

A full or queen mattress is $75 curbside / $99 full-service, a twin $65 curbside / $90 full-service and a king $135 curbside / $190 full-service. A queen mattress and box spring together run $140 curbside / $194 full-service, and a basic bed frame adds $40 curbside / $50 full-service. Our minimum pickup is $130, so if the mattress is the only thing going, add a few other items and it often costs the same. Getting rid of several beds or a whole room? Our load pricing — from $130 curbside — is usually the better deal.
