Does Highland pick up mattresses?

Same-day junk removal in Highland starts at $79 with Dropcurb. In a city of about 56,999 people in San Bernardino County, residents often need faster options than municipal scheduling allows, especially during move-outs, remodels, and HOA deadline cleanups in East Highlands Ranch. Book online in 60 seconds, leave items curbside, and a local hauler can pick up the same day.

City program details: Highland contracts with Burrtec and requires weekly refuse service. Residents get four free bulky-item pickups per year, up to five items per pickup, with overages billed per item and extra trip charges.

Highland requires trash service every seven days through Burrtec and offers four free bulky pickups per year with limits of five items per collection, then overage and trip charges apply. The city also directs hazardous waste to county HHW facilities instead of curb pickup, which adds extra logistics. In HOA-heavy neighborhoods like East Highlands Ranch and newer subdivisions, those rules can leave residents stuck when they need immediate removal before inspections or move deadlines.

Dropcurb picks up mattresses same-day in Highland for $79 flat — no wait, no annual limits, no restrictions.

Four city bulky pickups per year do not solve urgent cleanouts.

Highland has a municipal program, but annual pickup limits and item caps create bottlenecks for residents handling moves, remodel debris, or HOA notices. When timing matters, waiting for the next available city slot can be more expensive than booking a guaranteed curbside pickup immediately.

What happens to your mattress after pickup

Mattresses are recycled at licensed facilities where steel springs, foam, and fabric are separated and processed individually. Springs are melted down for scrap steel, foam is shredded for carpet padding or industrial use, and clean fabric is repurposed. Mattresses in good condition (no stains, no structural damage) are donated to local shelters and charities when possible. Items that can't be recycled or donated are disposed of at permitted solid waste facilities.
