Mattress removal in National City, CA
Booking takes about a minute. Pick your items and a pickup day, put the mattress out that morning, and we'll load it and take it away. Most of our National City pickups are curbside, so there's nothing to wrap and no trip to make.
From there it goes to our local recycling facility, where our team takes it apart by hand. The foam gets baled for carpet padding, the steel springs go to scrap processors, and box-spring wood gets chipped. Here's the whole process if you want to see it.

These are EDCO Disposal's requirements, not ours — they apply if you're putting the mattress out for the city rather than booking a pickup with us.
- Set out your item at the curb or the end of your driveway by 6:00 a.m., and a separate bulky-item collection truck will pick it up.
- Limited to three items.
- On what they won't take at the curb: hazardous chemicals such as paints, thinners, solvents, pesticides, and liquid wastes will not be accepted.
