Add the non-powered support beneath the mattress separately. Choose its size. If you have a split foundation, send a photo so we can help you count it.

Your place. One easy pickup plan.
A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.
If a new mattress is arriving, check whether your retailer is taking the old one. If you need Dropcurb, choose a day when you can have it outside. A delivery window and a pickup day are different arrangements.

Arrange the trip outside.
Plan for doorways, elevators and interior stairs before pickup day. You arrange any indoor carrying. Use a permitted outdoor location and keep entrances and the walking path open.
3
Make the right mattress easy to find.
Follow the readiness instructions in your confirmation. Add a location photo and clear access notes so your hauler can identify exactly what is going.
You’re in the loop. Until it’s gone.
Confirmation when you book. A heads-up before arrival. Photos when it’s done.
Mattresses are named among the large items the cleanup day hauler accepts, and any weekly curbside mattress pickup depends on the hauler the household contracts with.
City cost & eligibility
Neither the cleanup day nor a hauler pickup publishes a price for a mattress, so confirm the next event date with public works at 616.554.0817 and confirm the hauler's charge if the household would rather put the mattress out weekly.
When & how
Take the mattress to the Kentwood Department of Public Works at 5068 Breton Ave. SE on the next Community Cleanup Day between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m., or ask the household's hauler whether a mattress counts as a bulk item on the weekly route.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and bag it in wet weather, take the frame and headboard off because they are separate pieces, and bring identification for the residency check at the entrance.
Your hauler runs the weekly route, the city fixes the day
Kentwood does not collect refuse itself. A household picks a licensed private hauler, and the city's resident resources page lists Arrowaste, Republic Services and Waste Management as the companies to call. The city publishes a refuse collection areas map that sets the authorised pickup day for each neighbourhood, and the map legend shows those days as Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Weekly cart rules, extra bag charges and bulk item terms therefore come from the hauler the household hires, and nothing about them is the same across the city.
The Community Cleanup Day is the city programme for large household material. Residents drop off yard waste, trash and general debris for disposal and electronics for recycling from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Kentwood Department of Public Works, 5068 Breton Ave. SE. A hauler is on site to take general debris and trash including large items such as furniture and mattresses, and the city collects electronic waste such as televisions, mobile phones, computers and fax machines. Yard waste goes to the brush drop-off site first, tires are not accepted, and donation items and household hazardous material are refused. Staff check identification for residency at the entrance off Breton Avenue, and questions go to public works at 616.554.0817.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.
A Kentwood household that wants carts collected every week, including large items, on the authorised day for its neighbourhood.
Cost & conditions
Kentwood has no citywide refuse collection and publishes no hauler rate, so the price, the cart sizes, the extra bag charges and any bulk item fee come from the hauler the household hires. The city's resident resources page names Arrowaste at 616.748.1955, Republic Services at 877.698.7274 and Waste Management at 800.796.9696.
Arrange it
Call one of the licensed haulers, check the city refuse collection areas map for the authorised pickup day in the neighbourhood, and confirm the cart sizes, the extra material charges and the bulk item terms before signing up.
The city sets only the collection days, so the item rules and the charges vary by company and have to come from the hauler rather than from the city.
City of Kentwood public works programmes with licensed private refuse haulers
Take the load to Community Cleanup Day
A Kentwood household with general debris, trash, furniture, mattresses, electronics or yard waste that it would rather haul to the city than put out weekly.
Cost & conditions
The city publishes the cleanup day location, hours and accepted material but no fee and no next date beyond the past year's event, so confirm the next date and any charge with public works at 616.554.0817 before loading.
Arrange it
Watch for the next Community Cleanup Day, then bring the load to the Kentwood Department of Public Works at 5068 Breton Ave. SE during the published window, which ran from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. in 2026, and bring identification for the residency check at the entrance off Breton Avenue.
One day a year, Kentwood residents only, with tires, donation items and household hazardous material all refused. Yard waste has to be dropped off first at the brush site, and smoke alarms are not recycled with the electronics even though they can be disposed of at the event.
City public works yard used for the cleanup day, the chemical drop-off and yard waste intake
Kentwood Department of Public Works
5068 Breton Ave. SE, Kentwood, MI
On Community Cleanup Day, general debris and trash taken by the on-site hauler including large items such as furniture and mattresses, plus electronic waste collected by the city including televisions, mobile phones, computers and fax machines, and yard waste routed to the brush drop-off site. The same yard hosts the Kent County SafeChem household chemical drop-off on Tuesdays.
Tires, donation items and household hazardous material are refused on cleanup day, smoke alarms are not recycled with the electronics although they can be disposed of at the event, and the cleanup day and the drop-off services are for Kentwood residents only with identification checked at the entrance off Breton Avenue.
Community Cleanup Day ran from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the announced Saturday; the SafeChem window at the same yard is Tuesdays from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.; the public works office answers from 6:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday at 616.554.0817.
The City publishes no fee for the cleanup day, the electronics collection or the SafeChem drop-off at this yard, and it does not publish the next cleanup date, so confirm both the date and any charge with public works at 616.554.0817.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Kentwood.
How much does mattress removal cost in Kentwood?+
The price depends on the mattress size you choose. A queen mattress is $99 as the first item and $30 as an additional item. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Add any box spring or frame separately, then review your total and any applicable tax before payment.
Can I book same-day mattress pickup in Kentwood?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup. Choose from the dates shown at checkout. Have the mattress outside and accessible according to your confirmation. Your booking is for a day rather than an exact arrival time, and we text you when your hauler is on the way.
Is my box spring or bed frame included in mattress removal?+
The mattress price covers the mattress only. Add your box spring, bed frame or adjustable base separately if those are going too. Choose the size and type that match each item. The combined price appears before booking.
Will you carry my mattress downstairs or out of my apartment?+
Dropcurb starts outside. You arrange to move the mattress out of your apartment and down interior stairs before pickup. We load it and take it away from an accessible outdoor spot. Check your building’s access rules before arranging the move outside.
Can you pick up my old mattress when my new one arrives?+
You can choose an offered pickup day around your replacement delivery. First check whether the retailer already includes old-mattress removal, and arrange who will bring it outside if needed. Dropcurb books a pickup day, not the retailer’s delivery window. Contact us before booking if access is limited to a short time.
Where can a mattress go in Kentwood?+
The city names mattresses among the large items its cleanup day hauler accepts at the public works yard on Breton Avenue, so the annual Community Cleanup Day is the city route. Kentwood does not collect refuse itself, so a household that wants the mattress taken from the curb has to ask its own licensed hauler, and the city publishes the authorised collection days rather than the hauler's item rules.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Kentwood?+
A private hauler the household hires. Kentwood does not run a citywide refuse collection, and the city's resident resources page lists Arrowaste, Republic Services and Waste Management as the companies residents can call. The city publishes a refuse collection areas map that fixes the authorised pickup day for each neighbourhood, with the legend showing Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, so the pickup day comes from the city and the carts, charges and item rules come from the hauler.Official guidance
Is there a charge for the Kentwood cleanup day?+
The city does not publish a fee for the Community Cleanup Day, so the charge has to be confirmed with public works at 616.554.0817 along with the next event date, because the City has not published one. The day is limited to Kentwood residents with an identification check at the entrance off Breton Avenue, yard waste goes to the brush site first, and tires, donation items and household hazardous material are refused.Official guidance
