What Moody itself says
What we established about this city in particular — including where it runs nothing of its own and residents have to look elsewhere.
- Moody does not collect anything itself and publishes no bulky-item route: the city's whole published answer on trash is one hauler's name and a phone number. On the City of Moody's own "Move to Moody" page, the entire entry for refuse reads: "Waste Management handles garbage pick-up for Moody.", with "They can be contacted online or by phone at: 1 (866) 964-2729" and a link to the Waste Management website. That is all the city says. There is no city sanitation department, no bulky-waste page, no fee schedule, no set-out rule and no drop-off site anywhere on moodyalabama.gov — the site's own sitemap lists every page it has, and the only waste-related entries are this one and a St. Clair County links page that carries no waste content either. A Moody resident with a mattress therefore has no municipal answer at all; the question is one for their Waste Management subscription. This is Moody, ST. CLAIR COUNTY, ALABAMA, on the city's own moodyalabama.gov domain — not Moody, Texas, whose site moodytx.gov surfaces on the same searches. Source Not confirmed: Moody publishes no bulky-item or large-item collection, no mattress rule, no monthly garbage rate, no set-out time and no drop-off location. Whether Waste Management's Moody contract includes a bulk pickup, and on what terms, is not stated by the city anywhere. Not confirmed: Moody is not in the Alabama index on Municode, so its solid-waste ordinance, set-out window and illegal-dumping penalty could not be read; the city's own Ordinances page carries no consolidated code.
- Confirming the negative from the department that would run a collection if Moody had one. The City of Moody's Public Works page describes a right-of-way and street crew and nothing else: "The Public Works Department primary objective is to keep the right of ways and streets within the City of Moody maintained in a timely manner. This includes grass cutting and fixing pot holes." Its published duties are listed in full and none of them is refuse collection: "City of right-of-way maintenance", "Cut back bushes, hedges and limbs for safety and visibility", "City right-of-way sign control", "Cleaning of ditches and culverts along right-of-way", "Cleaning storm debris along right-of-way", "Responsible for Alabama Power city street lights", "Displaying banners/flags for holidays and special events" and "Decorating for the Christmas season". The department is at 100 Park Avenue, Moody, AL 35004, phone (205) 640-0319. So Moody runs no brush route, no bulky route and no drop-off: there is no city collection to put on the page, which is itself the finding. Source Not confirmed: Public Works publishes no yard-waste, brush or bulky collection and no drop-off yard, so there is no municipal route in Moody for a mattress. Nothing on the page addresses furniture or mattresses either way.
What St. Clair County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Moody and its neighbors.
- St. Clair County, Alabama publishes nothing at all about solid waste. Its complete site map — every page under Government, Services, Residents, Visiting and How Do I, read in full — contains no solid waste, garbage, trash, landfill, recycling, convenience-center, environmental-services or sanitation page. The departments the county lists are the Commission, County Engineer / Road Department, E-911, the Emergency Management Agency, Flood Management, GIS Mapping, Information Technology, the Licensing Division, Parks and Recreation, the Probate Office, Public Transportation, the Revenue Commissioner, the Sales Tax Department, the Sheriff's Office, the Conservation District, Voter Registrars and the Veterans Service Office. The county's FAQ page carries categories for jury service, 911, the Probate Office, flood management, E911, EMA and the Revenue Commission, and none for waste. The county's own site search returns results only through a script and could not be read, but the site map is definitive: there is no county page listing a drop-off site, a fee or an accepted-items rule, and therefore no county-published self-haul route for a mattress in Pell City, Moody, Margaret, Odenville or Springville. Source Not confirmed: Because the county publishes nothing, no county drop-off site, fee, hours or eligibility rule could be established for St. Clair County. Not confirmed: The county's ten-year solid waste management plan exists but is not published on the website; it survives only as an attachment to the commission minutes.
- St. Clair County has a solid waste plan and no solid waste program a resident can use. The commission minutes of August 12, 2025 record a public hearing "to adopt the St. Clair County ten-year solid waste management plan at 9:10 a.m. No public comments", and then the resolution "that the St. Clair County 10-year solid waste management plan approved on March 11, 2025, be rescinded and the plan presented in today's meeting be adopted. (Document to be made as part of these minutes as Attachment #4)". The plan itself is not published on the county's website and the attachment is not served with the minutes. Five sets of 2025 commission minutes — February 11, June 10, August 12, August 26, September 23 and October 14 — were read and none contains any award of a garbage collection contract, any mention of a hauler by name, or any reference to county collection, bulky items or a free dump day. Taken with the county's site map, which has no waste page at all, the county layer in St. Clair County is empty: there is no county curbside collection, no county drop-off, no voucher and no amnesty day. Source Not confirmed: The adopted ten-year solid waste management plan could not be read; it exists only as an unpublished attachment to the minutes, so anything it says about collection or disposal capacity is unknown. Not confirmed: Whether the county holds any garbage contract at all could not be established from published minutes; none of the 2025 minutes read mentions one.
- The clearest published statement about who collects in unincorporated St. Clair County comes from the county's largest city, and it points away from itself. The City of Pell City's Solid Waste Disposal page states: "Effective September 1, 2022, Meridian Waste (Formerly ADSI) will provide residential solid waste and brush collection service to all city residents", and then: "The City of Pell City is not responsible for solid waste collection outside the City Limits of Pell City. Requests for service in unincorporated St. Clair County should be directed to Arrow Disposal Services or the St. Clair County Commission." Inside the city the monthly cost "is $25.24 per month, which includes weekly garbage service and bi-weekly pickup of up to six (6) cubic yards of yard debris", with additional carts at "$12.36 per additional cart, per month", billed on the utility bill; garbage must be bagged and inside city-issued carts, out by 6:00 a.m., and "Household hazardous waste, lumber, scrap metal, or car parts may not be placed curbside for collection." For the county layer the operative sentence is the second one: a resident outside a town's limits is sent to a private hauler, Arrow Disposal Services — trading since 2022 as Meridian Waste — or to a county commission that publishes no waste service of its own. Source Not confirmed: Pell City's own bulky and mattress terms are city-layer research and were not pursued; the page quoted here was read for what it says about the unincorporated county. Not confirmed: The page does not say what the County Commission would do with a request for service, and the county publishes nothing.
- Not an option: No reuse outlet serving St. Clair County publishes a mattress-accepting policy. The nearest Habitat ReStore is Habitat for Humanity Birmingham's at 7952 Crestwood Boulevard, Irondale, Alabama 35210, open Monday–Saturday 8:00 am–5:00 pm, and its own page lists "Used mattresses" first under "Items We Do Not Accept". The affiliate publishes no county service area, so it is not asserted here that it covers St. Clair County; what is established is that the obvious ReStore refuses the item. No St. Clair County charity, thrift shop or furniture bank publishing a mattress-accepting policy was found on this pass. Source Not confirmed: No St. Clair County donation outlet was confirmed either way; none publishing a mattress policy was found. Not confirmed: Habitat for Humanity Birmingham does not publish its county service area.

What to check before you go
- Say if the mattress is wet, stained, or has any sign of pests — that is the usual reason one is turned away.
- Ask what the total will be. Box springs, stairs, and extra items are often charged separately.
- Check you qualify. Many sites serve only residents of their own city or county.
