Mattress removal in Albany, NY

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 Albany 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.

Albany and New York mattress disposal rules

Booking with us? You can skip this part. Everything below is for handling it yourself — Albany'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 Albany asks for if you use city pickup

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

    • Wrap the mattress and box spring in heavy-duty plastic bags or hypoallergenic mattress covers at least .8mm thick.
    • Place the wrapped mattress and box spring on the curb after 4:30pm the night before your pickup.
    • Where to put it: ensure the mattress and box spring do not obstruct sidewalks or roadways.
    • Excessive amounts of trash are defined as anything that is not manageable by 1 person, cannot be loaded into a collection vehicle, and requires more than 4 trips between the pile and the vehicle.
    • Mattresses must be scheduled in advance for collection.
    • Mattress bags are available for free at 200 Henry Johnson Blvd, 1 Richard J Conners Blvd, and 24 Eagle Street.
