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.

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.

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.

A mattress or box spring is named as a bulk item and goes out with the weekly collection.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. A mattress or box spring counts as one of the three bulk pieces included with the weekly service for an eligible owner-occupied property, with no separate charge published for those pieces.
When & how
Put the mattress out on the regular collection day as one of the week's bulk pieces.
Get it ready
Count the mattress and the box spring as separate pieces when both go out, because each cohesive item is its own bulk piece. Keep the bedding dry, and keep it clear of the totes so the collection crew can reach both.
Eligible owner-occupied one and two family properties may put out three bulk pieces on the regular collection day all year, and each piece has to be one cohesive item no larger than twelve feet by three feet by three feet. A dresser with the drawers left inside is one piece, while the same dresser with the drawers removed counts as eight separate pieces against the weekly limit.
The district Large Bulk collection and Pick and Pay
A pile larger than the weekly allowance waits for the Large Bulk collection day designated for the council district, when material goes out the Sunday before the scheduled week and is collected some time that week, with the pile limited to four cubic yards. Residents can also book a special pickup through 311 as a Pick and Pay, which the city prices from a starting point for a pile measuring twelve feet long by three feet high by three feet wide.
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 Buffalo Department of Public Works, Streets and Sanitation
Book a Pick and Pay special bulk pickup
An eligible household with more bulk material than the three piece weekly allowance, or with a pile that missed the district Large Bulk collection.
Cost & conditions
From $150 for the starting price the city publishes for a special bulk pickup pile measuring twelve feet long by three feet high by three feet wide. Buffalo households whose owner-occupied one or two family property pays the residential user fee and is not owned by a company. The pickup is arranged through 311, and the price rises with the size of the pile.
Arrange it
Call 311, describe the pile, pay for the pickup and set the material out as directed for the scheduled collection.
The service covers bulk material rather than televisions, computers, tires, construction debris or hazardous waste, which all have their own routes.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Mattress removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Buffalo.
How much does mattress removal cost in Buffalo?+
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 Buffalo?+
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 mattress be collected at the curb?+
Yes, as one of the three weekly bulk pieces on the regular collection day. The city names mattresses and box springs among the bulk examples, and the size limit of twelve feet by three feet by three feet is far larger than a mattress.Official guidance
Do the mattress and box spring count separately?+
Each bulk item has to be one cohesive piece, so a mattress is one piece and its box spring is another, which uses two of the three pieces allowed that week.Official guidance
