Kettering, OH Mattress Removal & Recycling

The easiest way is to book a pickup with us. It starts at $89, we can usually come the next day, and you leave it at the curb and we load it up. Nothing to bag or wrap, and it goes to our local recycling facility instead of a landfill. If you'd rather haul it yourself, Montgomery County Transfer and Recycling Facility in Moraine is the closest drop-off site, though its page doesn't say whether it takes mattresses, and you'll need a truck. Kettering will also take it with large item pickup, but you have to book it — rumpke will service up to three bulk items each week on your regular service day. There are rules about how it has to be put out. If you're moving or a new bed is coming, that wait usually decides it.

It starts at $89. What you pay depends on how many pieces you have and whether there are stairs, and you'll see the exact total in the booking form before you confirm. No quote call, and no haggling at the door — the number you see is the number you pay. Full pricing is on our pricing page.

Book a pickup with us and yours goes straight to our local recycling facility, where it gets taken apart by hand and the foam, steel and wood are all recovered. That starts at $89, and all you do is leave it at the curb. If you'd rather drop it off yourself, Montgomery County Transfer and Recycling Facility at 1001 Encrete Lane Moraine, OH 45439 is the nearest drop-off, though its page doesn't say whether it takes mattresses, open Monday through Friday 6 am to 7 pm and Saturday 8 am to 3 pm Sunday Closed. The Montgomery County Solid Waste District does not remove residential or curbside waste. It's in Moraine, so you'll need a truck and the time to get there.

Yes — rumpke will service up to three bulk items each week on your regular service day. The City of Kettering has a single hauler trash program for residential properties that are three units or less and is currently under contract with Rumpke Waste & Recycling. Rumpke will collect up to three bulk items each week without notification or scheduling. A few things to know: upholstered items including sofas, mattresses, box springs, dining chairs, etc. must be completely wrapped on all sides in a sealable plastic. Items not completely sealed will not be serviced as they pose a health and safety hazard; items larger than four feet in width need to be cut in half or dismantled in order to fit in the truck. If you are unsure if your bulk item(s) require special disposal methods to ensure they are picked-up, please call Rumpke at 1-800-828-8171. If that timing doesn't work, we can usually come tomorrow.

No, sorry — we can't take a mattress with bed bugs. Same goes for anything soiled with bodily fluids, badly water damaged or moldy, or contaminated with chemicals. It's not us being fussy: an infested mattress would put everything else in the truck at risk, and it can't be recycled or donated either. Normal wear is completely fine. Sagging, coffee stains, pet hair, a tired-looking cover — we pick those up every day. If you're not sure, send us a photo before you book and we'll tell you straight away.

No. Almost all our pickups are curbside — put the mattress out by 8am on your pickup day and we'll take it whether you're home or not. We'll text you when we're about thirty minutes out so you know it's been done. If you can't get it outside, in-home pickup is available for an extra fee. If something changes on the day, call (720) 263-6094 and we'll move it.

Usually the next day. Book by 5pm and we can normally come tomorrow. If you want a specific day or a tighter window, give it 24 to 48 hours — weekends fill up first. That's the real difference between us and waiting for the city: their pickup runs on its own schedule, so if you're moving out or a new bed is being delivered, the wait tends to matter more than the price. You'll see live availability for Kettering in the booking form.
