Mattress removal in Winthrop, MA

The Capitol Waste route
Call Capitol Waste at 1-855-533-3400 (Managing Household Trash page) or 617-569-1718 (bulk sticker page) to pay and schedule. Bulk stickers cannot be used for mattresses. Town DPW: 617-846-1341 ext. 2609.
Unlike the bulk program, this works for all residents, whatever the number of units in the building.
Why people choose a private pickup
The Capitol price isn't posted, and some buildings of four or more units have no town service at all. A twin mattress is $89, full $99, queen $109, king $129 with the recycling fee included; box springs $59 to $99. A queen set is $188.
On a peninsula street with tight parking, tell us where a truck can stop.
Don't put a mattress at the curb without a pickup booked; it breaks the state ban. The ReStore doesn't accept mattresses, box springs, futons or sofa beds.
