What Determines The Cost Of Mattress Removal?

Having a new home is an exciting time. However, the process of moving is notoriously stressful, with packing, discarding old furniture, transportation, and making sure everything arrives at your new home safely. Mattresses are an integral part of a home, facilitating a good night’s sleep and preparing you for a day’s work ahead. However, your mattress should be replaced every 6 to 8 years, and perhaps moving into a new home is the perfect time to dispose of an old mattress and upgrade to a better night’s sleep. Services to remove your mattress can cost anywhere between $20 to $175, averaging around $75. Here we break down the factors affecting the cost of mattress removal so you can make the most financially sound decision for your move.

Mattress Condition

If your mattress is still in good shape, instead of disposing of it, you can opt to donate it to someone instead and that will cut down the cost of removing a mattress completely.

Mattress Size

The larger the mattress, the higher the cost. This is because larger mattresses are harder to dispose of and generally require more time to remove. On average, a twin-size mattress would cost between $20 to $50, a full-size would range between $25 to $55, a queen-size mattress would cost $35 to $95 to remove, and a king or a California king-size mattress would cost between $40 to $125 to remove.

Type of Removal

There are different types of services when it comes to mattress removals. Your local waste collection service may even remove it for you for free. However, if you are getting rid of other items as well, you might have to pay more. Here are the different types of mattress removal services.

Curbside Pick-Up

Curbside pick-up is the most affordable way to remove the mattress from your home. It can cost anywhere from $0 to $20 per mattress. However, it is not readily available and you will have to be responsible for moving the mattress to the sidewalk in addition to wrapping it in plastic if it is made of softer material.

Retailing

Certain stores or sellers can help take your old mattress off your hands. However, this service is not provided by all mattress retailers so you will have to do your own research. This type of removal process costs about $20 to $25.

Landfill Disposal

Landfill disposal for mattresses costs roughly $50 to $100. The price will vary if you are having it picked up.

Junk Removal Service

Costing about the same as landfill disposal, having your mattress removed by a professional junk removal service can be a convenient option if you have other items to discard along with your mattress. This can help save on cost as it would be cheaper to discard other items along with the mattress and save on planning as well as effort if you are already planning on throwing away other items.
