Mattress removal in Columbus, OH

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 Columbus 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.

Columbus and Ohio mattress disposal rules

Booking with us? You can skip this part. Everything below is for handling it yourself — Columbus's rules, the fees and the drop-off options. If we're doing the pickup, the regulations and the recycling are ours to deal with: you leave it at the curb and we take it from there.

  1. What Columbus asks for if you use city pickup

    These are City of Columbus' requirements, not ours — they apply if you're putting the mattress out for the city rather than booking a pickup with us.

    • Bulk items should not be placed in your collection container.
    • If your regular trash is picked up at the curb, place bulk items in front of your home away from obstructions on your specially scheduled collection day.
    • Items resulting from an eviction, set-out, or foreclosure will not be collected.
    • Bags, boxes, storage tubs, luggage and/or open containers of trash are not considered bulk.
    • On what they won't take at the curb: refrigerated appliances (refrigerators, freezers, dehumidifiers, heat pumps, water coolers and air conditioners); Furnaces, Pianos, Spas, Hot tubs or pool tables.
