Springfield, IL 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. Springfield will also take it with large item pickup, but you have to book it — whether registering for the program online or over the phone, residents will be asked what item(s) they have and, in return, will be given a collection date. Springfield residents living within the city's corporate limits are eligible to participate in the city's free large item pick up collection. 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.

Yes, and it's Springfield residents living within the city's corporate limits are eligible to participate in the city's free large item pick up collection — whether registering for the program online or over the phone, residents will be asked what item(s) they have and, in return, will be given a collection date. Pick up can be divided into two (2) transactions of three (3) items per scheduled pick up or one (1) scheduled pick up of up to six (6) items. All eligible city residents qualify for free scheduled residential curbside pick up of up to six (6) items per calendar year. A few things to know: Please note, if you do not pay the $4.50 waste and recycling fee, this program does not apply to you; all participants of the program requesting pick up are asked to place items curbside and to not place items curbside until 24 hours before their scheduled pick up. To schedule a drop off or pick up, Springfield residents can call Habitat for Humanity at 217.523.2710. 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 and it's Springfield residents living within the city's corporate limits are eligible to participate in the city's free large item pick up collection, 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 Springfield in the booking form.
