Tampa, FL Mattress Removal & Recycling

Mattress removal in Tampa, FL

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 Tampa 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.

How it works

1. Book online.

   Pick your items and a pickup day. Takes about a minute, and you see the price before you confirm.

2. Put it at the curb.

   Leave it out on your pickup day. No bagging, no wrapping, no plastic required.

3. We arrive.

   Our team shows up in your window and texts you when they're about thirty minutes out.

4. We recycle it.

   Your mattress goes to our local recycling facility and gets taken apart by hand. You'll get a confirmation once it's done.

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

   These are Solid Waste Enhanced Environmental Program (S.W.E.E.P.)'s requirements, not ours — they apply if you're putting the mattress out for the city rather than booking a pickup with us.

   • Flat glass items, such as mirrors, window glass, or table top panes, must be duct taped or wrapped to prevent breakage.
   • Items must be placed together in one pile, curbside, and on the right of way in front of your residence, no later than 8 p.m. on your Sunday S.W.E.E.P. clean-up date.
   • Where to put it: to prevent injury and damage, avoid placing items under low hanging tree limbs, on or near electrical/phone lines, water meters, and utility boxes.
   • S.W.E.E.P. piles should not exceed 10 cubic yards (1 cubic yard = the size of 1 oven).
   • Items placed in front of vacant homes or lots will be treated as illegal dumping and will be investigated by Code Enforcement for resolution.
   • The earliest that items may be placed curbside is five (5) days prior to your Sunday S.W.E.E.P. clean-up date.
   • Household Appliances Furniture Mattresses Barbecue Grills Toilets Carpet Flat Glass (duct taped or wrapped) Passenger Tires (limited to 4 tires) Railroad Ties (cut down to 4 feet) Tree limbs and Stumps are on the accepted list, so the mattress itself is not the problem — the booking is.
