Mattress removal in Skokie, IL
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 Skokie 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.

What Skokie asks for if you use city pickup
These are Skokie Public Works' requirements, not ours — they apply if you're putting the mattress out for the city rather than booking a pickup with us.
- Mattresses must be wrapped in plastic (shrink wrap plastic can be purchased at home improvement stores).
- Place item out by 7 a.m. on your scheduled collection day.
- Where to put it: items should be placed alongside your regular garbage and recycling by 7 a.m. on your pickup day.
- Residents can place one large bulk item (e.g., a couch) or up to two smaller items (e.g., a chair and end table) at the curb once per week on their regular refuse collection day.
