Mattress Removal in Philadelphia
Philadelphia collects mattresses and box springs on trash day only when they’re wrapped in plastic. Wrapping a king mattress by yourself, then getting it down a narrow staircase, is a two-person job at the least. We skip all of that: a queen is $103, a king $114, a box spring $92 — unwrapped, straight from the bedroom.

The Plastic Rule, Explained
On trash day, a mattress is one of your two large items and must be completely wrapped. The city’s bulk appointment program doesn’t take mattresses at all.
- No bag to buy or seal
- No carrying it to the curb
- No using up your two-item week
- Box spring and frame on the same trip
Photograph the bed with the sheets off — size and the box spring show up in one shot.
Get My Mattress QuoteHow Mattress Pickup Works
1. Photo the bed
Twin or king, pillow-top or foam — the photo sorts it out and the price follows.
2. Pick a time
Before the new mattress arrives, before your lease ends, or while the apartment sits empty.
3. Down the stairs
The crew flexes it around tight turns, carries it out, and recycles the springs and foam when the facility allows.
Who Books Mattress Removal in Philadelphia
Renters and Students
Temple, Penn and Drexel leases turn over in late summer, and mattresses rarely make the move.
Landlords
Beds left behind in a unit need to be gone before the next tenant signs.
Families in the Rowhouse Belt
North Philadelphia and Kensington households replacing beds, often with a frame or crib going too.
Anyone on the Third Floor
A king mattress and a winding stair are a bad combination to handle alone.

Mattress Removal FAQs
How much is mattress removal in Philadelphia?
Twin $82, full $94, queen $103, king or California king $114. A box spring of any size is $92, and a matched set is $143.
Do I need to wrap my mattress in plastic for you?
No. The wrapping rule is the city’s requirement for trash-day collection. We take the mattress unwrapped.
Does Philadelphia’s bulk appointment program take mattresses?
No. The appointment program lists mattresses among its excluded items; they go out on trash day, wrapped, as one of your two large items.
Can you get a king mattress down a narrow rowhome stair?
Yes. Mattresses bend, and the crew knows how to angle them around landings without marking the walls.
Are old mattresses recycled?
When the condition and the facility allow, steel springs and foam are separated for recycling. Pennsylvania doesn’t require mattress recycling, so it depends on the mattress.
Do you take bed frames and bunk beds too?
Yes — a standard frame is $68 and a bunk bed $123, taken apart on site.
Is there tax on mattress removal?
No tax on Pennsylvania or Delaware pickups. New Jersey addresses pay the state’s 6.625% sales tax on the service.
