Mattress Removal & Pickup in Los Angeles — Off Your Floor, Into California's Recycling Stream
Dump Happy provides mattress removal, mattress pickup, and legal mattress disposal across Los Angeles, starting at $289 for a small load. A used mattress is one of the hardest things to get rid of on your own: it's heavy and floppy, it won't fit in a car, and leaving it at the curb can cost you a fine. Dump Happy carries mattresses and box springs out of any room in your LA home and routes them to California mattress recyclers — the responsible, legal path, without you wrestling a king-size down a stairwell. One item or a whole apartment's worth, we handle it.
- Upfront, load-based pricing
- Legal disposal, always
- Open daily 10am–8pm
How Mattress Recycling Works in California
California law (SB 254) built a statewide system for recycling mattresses, funded by a small fee charged on every mattress sold. Old units are broken down and the steel springs, foam, and fibers become carpet padding, insulation, and mulch — the reason your mattress shouldn't just hit a landfill. When Dump Happy picks up your mattress, we route it to a California mattress recycler for you, so it ends up in that stream without you lifting a finger.
What's Included When You Book Mattress Removal
Everything from the bedroom to the recycler. Our crew carries the mattress, box spring, and frame out of any room — upstairs units, no-elevator walk-ups, and tight hallways included — loads it, and routes it to a California mattress recycler. You don't need a truck, a helper, or a free afternoon. Pricing is by load, starting at $289 for a small load, which usually covers a mattress, box spring, and frame together, and you get a firm quote before we lift anything. Call (424) 356-4141 or request a free quote online; same-day or next-day pickup is often available when the schedule allows.
Illegal dumping applies to mattresses too

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I get rid of a mattress in Los Angeles?+
Right from your bedroom. Book Dump Happy and our crew carries the mattress out of any room, hauls it away, and routes it to a California mattress recycler, starting at $289. No truck to borrow, no drop-off site to find, no city appointment to wait on.
Where can I dump a mattress?+
Not on a sidewalk, in an alley, or beside a dumpster — that's illegal dumping under California Penal Code 374.3, with LA County fines up to $10,000. The sites that legally accept mattresses make you bring it yourself in a truck, and city pickup means waiting for your collection day and dragging it to the curb. Book a pickup and we'll take it straight from the bedroom.
What's the difference between mattress removal, mattress pickup, and mattress disposal?+
In practice they're the same job. Mattress pickup or removal means a crew carries the mattress out of your home and hauls it away; mattress disposal is where it ends up. Dump Happy does all three in one visit: we lift it from any room, load it, and route it to a California mattress recycler instead of a landfill.
Do you offer same-day mattress pickup in Los Angeles?+
Often, yes. We're open 10am to 8pm, 7 days a week, and can usually do same-day or next-day mattress pickup across the Westside, South Bay, and Central LA when the schedule allows. Call (424) 356-4141 to check today's availability.
How do I dispose of a mattress in Los Angeles?+
The easiest way is to book a pickup: we haul it from your room and route it to a California mattress recycler, where the springs, foam, and fabric are recovered and reused. That keeps it out of a landfill and off the street — and off your to-do list, since you never handle the lift or the hauling.
What's included when I book mattress removal?+
Everything: our crew carries the mattress out of any room — upstairs and no-elevator buildings included — loads it, and routes it to a California mattress recycler. Box springs and frames can go in the same trip. Pricing starts at $289 for a small load, with a firm quote before we lift anything.
Do you take box springs and futons too?+
Yes — box springs, foundations, and futons along with the mattress, plus the bed frame as a furniture item. Tell us how many pieces when you book so the load tier is quoted right the first time.
Will you take a stained or old mattress?+
Yes. Condition doesn't matter for removal — every mattress we haul goes to a California mattress recycler, which processes the materials regardless of stains or wear.
Is it illegal to leave a mattress on the curb?+
If it's not part of a scheduled, approved pickup, yes — dumping a mattress on a sidewalk, alley, or roadside violates California Penal Code 374.3 and can bring fines up to $10,000 in LA County plus cleanup costs. A booked removal avoids all of that.
Can you remove several mattresses from a rental or apartment turnover?+
Yes — apartment turnovers, dorms, and multi-unit clear-outs are common jobs. Multiple mattresses move up the load tiers rather than being billed one impossible errand at a time, and we handle upper floors and no-elevator buildings.
How much does mattress removal cost?+
Mattress removal in Los Angeles starts at $289 for a small load, which usually covers a mattress, box spring, and bed frame together. Several mattresses move up to the next load tier rather than being billed per piece. You get a firm quote before we lift anything.
