  • Collection hours: Items may be picked up any time between 7:30am and 7:30pm.
  • Multiple vehicles: Different types of items may be collected by different trucks throughout the day. Please leave all items accessible until the end of the day.

Mattress & box spring requirements

  • Must be individually wrapped and sealed in a clear plastic bag. For safety reasons, unwrapped mattresses cannot be collected.
