Three parts. Choose only the ones going.
Mattress
Choose twin, full, queen or king / California king. The mattress choice covers the mattress itself. A topper is a different item.
Box spring or foundation
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.
Frame or adjustable base
Choose the frame that matches yours. A powered adjustable base has its own option. Include these only if they are leaving with the mattress.

Items do not need to be outside when you book. If your building allows only a short access window, contact us before booking so we can agree on a workable plan.
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.
2
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.
No Grand Island page names a mattress route, so a set has to be confirmed with the hauler or the transfer station before it goes out.
City cost & eligibility
No mattress rate is published by the city, the transfer station or the haulers, so call the hauler serving the address or the transfer station at (308) 385-5433 and confirm the route and the charge.
When & how
Call the hauler serving the address for a special item pickup, or call the transfer station at (308) 385-5433 to confirm whether a mattress can be dropped there before loading it.
Get it ready
Keep the set out of the recycling toter, keep it dry, and do not leave it at the curb or in a drop-off lane before the arrangement is confirmed.
The city Public Works Department maintains the landfill and the transfer station, while private companies provide the curb-side pickup of refuse and recyclables, and the city names Mid-Nebraska Disposal and Heartland Disposal. Multi-material recycling drop-off sites are available at multiple locations, and the community guide lists the curbside recyclables both haulers take.
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.
City of Grand Island Public Works with licensed private haulers
Arrange curbside service and a special item pickup with a private hauler
A Grand Island household that needs weekly trash and recycling and a large item taken from the curb.
Cost & conditions
The city sets no rate because collection comes from private haulers, and Heartland Disposal asks residents to call for a free quote, so confirm the weekly and special item charges with your hauler.
Arrange it
Choose one of the haulers the city names, Mid-Nebraska Disposal or Heartland Disposal, and request the special item pickup. Heartland Disposal answers at (308) 382-1683 from 1839 East 4th Street and offers weekly trash, curbside recycling and yard waste from April to November.
Weekly service, cart sizes, recycling terms and special item charges follow the company you hire, and the city is not the collection provider, so confirm the details before booking.
The community guide lists the site for residents, with the city yard waste site bordering it to the east and disposal fees possibly applying. No retained body publishes what the station accepts, so confirm the material and the rate on (308) 385-5433 before loading.
The city transfer station page could not be read from this environment, so the accepted items and rates have to be confirmed by phone. The guide warns that nothing may be dropped off after hours because it can be charged as illegal dumping, and that disposal fees may apply.
Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday from 7 a.m. to noon. Phone (308) 385-5433.
No transfer station rate is published, so call (308) 385-5433 and confirm the accepted load and the charge before the trip.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Grand Island.
How much does mattress removal cost in Grand Island?+
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 Grand Island?+
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.
Will a Grand Island hauler take a mattress?+
No Grand Island page names a mattress route, so confirm it first. Call the private hauler serving the address, such as Heartland Disposal at (308) 382-1683, and ask about a special item pickup, or call the city transfer station at (308) 385-5433 and ask whether a mattress is accepted there and what it costs.Official guidance
