Mattress removal in Waterbury, CT
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 Waterbury 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.

Connecticut already paid for your mattress to be recycled
Connecticut is one of four states with a mattress recycling law, and you paid into it when you bought the mattress — $16.00 per unit on every mattress and box spring sold in the state. That's what makes drop-off free: in the program's own words, "any amount of units can be dropped off at a participating recycling facility". One catch: registration is required, so you can't just turn up.

Buying a new mattress? Ask the shop to take the old one
When your new mattress is delivered, ask your retailer if they will take back your old one — this may be provided at little to no charge depending on the retailer's policies. Unlike California, Connecticut doesn't require them to, so it's worth asking before you pay anyone — including us — to haul it away.
