Why mattress removal costs what it does:
Mattresses are one of the most common junk removal items, but they're also one of the most inconvenient to dispose of yourself. Most city trash services won't take them with regular pickup. Many landfills charge a separate mattress disposal fee. And they don't fit in a standard vehicle.
Traditional junk removal companies charge $130–$250 for a mattress because their pricing includes a two-person crew entering your home, carrying it out, loading it on a truck, and disposing of it. You're paying for labor you may not need — if you can get the mattress to the curb, you save that cost entirely.
