Mattress Removal
A mattress is the worst thing to get rid of yourself: it won’t fold, it won’t fit in a car, and if you dump it wrong you can get cited for illegal dumping, which San Jose actively enforces. We pick up mattresses and box springs of any size from anywhere in your home, carry them out, and take them to a certified recycler under California’s Bye Bye Mattress program — where the steel, foam, and wood get separated and reused.
Whether it’s a single old queen after an upgrade or a dozen mattresses from a rental turnover, apartment complex, or Airbnb reset, we handle the volume and the carry-out. No wrestling it down the stairs yourself, no strapping it to the roof of your car.
What we don’t take: If a mattress has bed bugs, tell us when you book so the crew can bag it before it moves through your home — we’d rather handle it safely than spread the problem.
California’s Used Mattress Recovery and Recycling Act funds a statewide program — Bye Bye Mattress, run by the Mattress Recycling Council — that recycles mattresses at no charge. There are drop-off sites around San Jose (Goodwill of Silicon Valley on North 7th Street is one), and if you’re buying a new mattress, the retailer is legally required to haul your old one away on delivery. When one of those fits, it’s free and we’ll point you to it.
The catch is getting the mattress to the site. The free drop-offs don’t come to you, they have limited hours, and you still need a truck and a second person to move a king mattress and box spring across town. That’s the part people pay us for: we do the carry-out and the driving, and still deliver it into the same free recycling stream. For a single mattress you can move yourself, use the free drop-off; for anything you can’t haul, or several at once, call us.
The recycling itself is — California’s Bye Bye Mattress program takes mattresses and box springs at no charge at drop-off sites, and mattress retailers must haul your old one away when they deliver a new one. What’s not free is your time and a truck: if you can’t move a king mattress across San Jose yourself, we carry it out and deliver it into that same recycling program for a straightforward haul-away fee. If a free option fits your situation, we’ll tell you.
Yes — bulk mattress removal for landlords, apartment complexes, and short-term rentals is a regular San Jose job for us. We’ll clear a unit or a whole building’s worth of old mattresses in one trip, carry them from upstairs units, and recycle them under the state program. Call (408) 359-1731 with a count and we’ll quote the load.
Yes, but tell us in advance. For a soiled or bed-bug mattress we bag it before it moves through your home so nothing spreads on the way out. It still gets disposed of properly. Being upfront on the call just lets the crew bring the right materials.
