Mattresses, box springs and the rest of the bed
The new mattress showed up and the old one is leaning against the garage door. It doesn't fit in the trash can, and most charities won't take it. We'll carry it down and haul it off.
Any size, from a crib mattress to a California king, plus the box spring, the foundation and the frame. Memory foam and pillow-top mattresses are heavy and floppy, and they're a pain to get down a staircase alone. That's the part we handle.
Send a photo and the town through the quote form. One mattress is a normal pickup. If there's more going, like a dresser from the same room, put it all in the same request and we price the whole load.
Why a mattress usually can't be donated
People are often surprised by this one. Goodwill Industries of Central Florida lists mattresses, box springs, headboards, bed pillows and bed frames on its donation page as things it can't accept. A mattress in perfect shape still gets turned away.
Some states run mattress recycling programs, where a small charge at the register pays for collection. Florida isn't one of them. The Mattress Recycling Council lists its state programs as California, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Oregon.
Where it goes
A mattress goes to a Brevard County facility. The Central Disposal Facility in Cocoa takes household garbage, and so do the transfer stations at Sarno Road in Melbourne and in Titusville. A metal bed frame can go for scrap instead.
If you know the mattress has bed bugs, say so in the form. We'll wrap it before it comes through the house. The guide to where junk goes in Brevard covers the county sites in more detail.
