How to Dispose of a Mattress: 7 Real Options (2026 Guide)

You have 7 legal ways to dispose of a mattress: donate it (Goodwill, Salvation Army, Habitat ReStore), recycle it at a Bye Bye Mattress facility, sell it on Facebook Marketplace, give it away on Freecycle/Buy Nothing, repurpose the foam and springs, schedule a city bulk pickup (most DFW cities allow 1 per quarter), or hire a junk removal company ($75–$149 for a single mattress). Curbside dumping is illegal in most Texas cities and carries fines up to $2,000. Mattresses are one of the hardest household items to throw out — they're bulky, banned from most landfills, and almost no city trash truc
