Mattress removal in East Providence, RI
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 East Providence 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.

Rhode Island already paid for your mattress to be recycled
Rhode Island is one of four states with a mattress recycling law, and you paid into it when you bought the mattress — $20.50 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, Rhode Island doesn't require them to, so it's worth asking before you pay anyone — including us — to haul it away.

Can you take a mattress to the landfill near East Providence?
You can, but check the price first — it is usually more than a pickup costs. Rhode Island Resource Recovery Corp. (Central Landfill) in Johnston does take mattresses — FREE. Either way you need a truck and the drive out to Johnston, and a pickup from us is $89 and comes to you.
