Where your old mattress actually goes
Recycled, not dumped in a canyon
We prioritize recycling and donation to keep mattresses out of the landfill. In acceptable condition, a mattress is broken down into its four main components, steel springs, foam, fibers, and wood, which get a second life as construction rebar, carpet padding, insulation, and mulch. California’s Mattress Recycling Council recycles about 1.4 million mattresses a year, and recycling saves an estimated 14.9 million cubic yards of landfill space. In 2024, the City of San Diego collected 16,921 mattresses through its recycling program. If you would rather do it yourself, San Diego residents can drop off mattresses free through the Bye Bye Mattress program at sites like the Miramar Landfill, Monday to Friday, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. (items must not be wet or infested). When you want a hassle-free, same-day option instead, we handle it and hand you a Green Halo receipt as proof.

Mattress disposal FAQ
How much does mattress disposal cost in San Diego?

A 15% veteran discount is available, and we offer 0% financing on larger jobs. Call or book online for a free quote.
Do you offer same-day mattress pickup?
Yes. Same-day or next-day service is available depending on our schedule. If you need urgent removal for a property showing or a tenant turnover, call early in the day for the best availability, or book online for flexible scheduling during business hours.
What happens to my old mattress after pickup?
We prioritize recycling and donation. Mattresses in acceptable condition are broken down into steel springs, foam, fibers, and wood frames, which become construction rebar, carpet padding, insulation, and mulch. Items that are soiled or infested go to appropriate disposal facilities. You receive a Green Halo receipt documenting responsible, eco-friendly disposal aligned with California recycling laws. If you are buying a new mattress, note that California retailers must offer free haul-away of your old one on delivery.
Do you remove box springs and bed frames too?
Absolutely. We remove mattresses, box springs, bed frames, headboards, and other furniture in a single visit, whether it is one box spring or a full bedroom set. Volume pricing applies when you combine items, so bundling reduces your per-item cost.
Stop letting an unwanted mattress take up space or risk an illegal-dumping fine. Lightweight Debris Removal provides same-day, flat-rate mattress disposal across North County San Diego with professional handling, eco-friendly recycling, and a Green Halo receipt to prove it.
