2City curbside pickup in Lawrenceville
Lawrenceville’s own collection service takes the mattress from outside your home. You normally have to book a date in advance and follow their wrapping rules.
Lawrenceville Large Item (Bulk) Pick-up
Lawrenceville Utilities sanitation customers "residing within the city limits", who receive a city 95-gallon cart. Residents outside the city limits are told to contact Gwinnett County Sanitation for a provider instead.
The last date published for this was Sep 29, 2026, so it has passed.
Conditions and source
Scheduled in advance by online form or Customer Service at 678-407-6675, and collected on Fridays only, never on the regular trash day; an order placed on a Friday is collected the following Friday. "This service includes items such as discarded appliances, mattresses, and small furniture" plus electronics. Two large items a week are free and each item beyond that is billed $10 on the utility bill. Items go out the night before and the city's own rule is "Do not place scheduled Large Item Pick-Up items by road until Thursday evening." An item put at the curb without contacting the city "will NOT be picked up". Tires, batteries, paint and commercial or construction materials are refused. Limbs are a separate service ($200 a full truckload, $100 a half). A notice of July 10, 2026 warns of "temporary delays in Large Item Pick-Up services due to current operational limitations" and was still current on September 29, 2026.
- $0 — The first two large items each week: "The sanitation service includes two FREE large item pick-ups per week." A mattress is named among the items included.
- $10 — Each large item beyond the two free ones in a week: "Additional items are $10 per large item", "billed at $10 per item on customer's utility bill".
Not confirmed: No size, weight or wrapping rule is published for a mattress.
Not confirmed: No disposal or recycling outcome is published.
Not confirmed: The delay notice of July 10, 2026 has no published end date.

Visit siteGwinnett County residential bulk item collection
'Gwinnett County's solid waste and recycling service includes collection of bulk items and white goods.' Five haulers collect 'in assigned service areas' — Red Oak Sanitation (North), Republic Services (East), Southern Sanitation (South), Waste Management (Northwest) and Waste Pro of Georgia (Southwest). The page does not state whether properties inside Gwinnett's incorporated cities are included.
Conditions and source
'Contact your hauler 48 hours prior to your pick-up day to schedule collection', or submit a request through the county's online bulk pickup form. Bulk items and white goods are covered by the base service fee, $24.14 per month or $289.68 for the year in 2026 and $25.01 per month or $300.12 for the year in 2027, with a reduced rate for residents aged 62 and over. Appliances must be emptied and have Freon removed and tagged by a qualified technician. Mattresses are not named individually; they fall under the generic bulk-item category.
Not confirmed: Eligibility is not published: the page does not say whether city properties are included in the county program.
Not confirmed: Mattresses are not named explicitly.
Not confirmed: No per-item charge, quantity limit or wrapping rule is published.
Not confirmed: No disposal outcome is published.

Visit siteFurniture Bank of Metro Atlanta mattress donation pickup
Donors inside the Furniture Bank's pickup area, which 'includes most of Cobb, Gwinnett, Fulton and DeKalb counties', confirmed by entering a zip code on the pickup request form.
Conditions and source
Mattresses and box springs are accepted in any condition. Specialty beds (bunk, loft, murphy, water beds), mattress toppers, futons, cribs, sleeper sofas and items over six feet tall are refused. Two scheduled pickup tiers are offered: a standard service described as free to low cost and a priority service at low to medium cost; neither handles large appliances or disassembly. Drivers decide acceptance at the door, and inside-the-home pickup requires prior arrangement.
Not confirmed: The pickup tiers are described only as 'Free - Low' and 'Low - Medium' cost; no dollar amounts are published.
Not confirmed: 'Most of ... Fulton' is not defined by zip code, so coverage of an individual Atlanta address is not guaranteed.

Places that accept mattresses if you can get it there yourself. Distance is measured from the center of Lawrenceville. Some accept residents of their own city or county only, so check before you drive.
Cheapest
Roswell Transfer Station mattress drop-off
Open to residents and non-residents for non-construction material: "As of July 1, 2025, the Roswell Transfer Station accepts non-construction materials from both residents and non-residents." The rate turns on residence: "Proof of residence within Roswell city limits is required to receive resident rates." Construction and demolition material is taken from Roswell residents only and is "currently not accepted from non-residents".
Conditions and source
The Non-Construction Waste Fee Schedule effective July 1, 2025 groups "Boxspring, Couch, Mattress" together, free to a Roswell resident and "$20 Each" to a non-resident. Bagged trash is free to residents and $3 per bag otherwise; lamps, rugs and vacuums free or $10 each; ordinary furniture free or $15 each. Hours are "Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m." at 1810 Hembree Road, Alpharetta, GA 30009. Not accepted: hazardous waste (anti-freeze, gasoline, lighter fluid, pesticides, propane tanks), yard waste (grass clippings, mulch, rocks, sand, tree limbs) and recyclables (appliances, cardboard, electronics, household batteries, lawn mowers, oil, metal, paint, tires). Roswell residents are directed to city household hazardous waste events and to the Roswell Recycling Center for those categories instead.
- $0 — "Free" for a Roswell resident: the Non-Construction Waste Fee Schedule effective July 1, 2025 lists "Boxspring, Couch, Mattress" at a resident fee of Free and "Proof of residence within Roswell city limits is required to receive resident rates." Open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.
- $20 — "$20 Each" non-resident fee for "Boxspring, Couch, Mattress" under the same fee schedule effective July 1, 2025, since non-construction material has been accepted from non-residents as well as residents since July 1, 2025. A mattress and box spring would therefore be $40.00 for a household outside the Roswell city limits.
Not confirmed: The page does not state what form of proof of residence is accepted, nor any load limit on a resident's free drop-off.
Not confirmed: The page does not say what becomes of a mattress after drop-off, so the outcome is not established as recycling.
Not confirmed: No weekend hours are published.

Visit siteSeminole Road Landfill — household self-haul
No residency rule is published on either the fee sheet or the bulky-item page; the department calls Seminole Road its "Public disposal facility" and offers it as a "Self-haul option for residents", while describing its Central, East and North transfer stations as commercial disposal sites. The animal crematory on the same fee sheet does distinguish DeKalb residents from non-residents, so the county knows how to write a residency rule and has not written one for the landfill gate.
Conditions and source
4203 Clevemont Road, Ellenwood, GA 30294, 404-687-4040. Open Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Charging is by weight at the scale, not per item: municipal disposal is $95.00 a ton and the minimum scale fee is $48.00 for any material up to 999 pounds, so one mattress costs $48 unless it travels with a heavier load. Construction and demolition material, yard trimmings, trees, inert materials, industrial and commercial waste are all $95 a ton. Residential tires are $10 each and no commercial tires are taken; an appliance containing Freon is $48. Asbestos and large animals carry a $200 hole-preparation charge plus tonnage. The county's own bulky-item page points households here as the alternative to a fee-based curbside collection, noting "Pay-per-weight pricing" and that construction materials are accepted.
Not confirmed: The $48 minimum comes from the county's April 2026 fee sheet; the bulky-item page cites a gate minimum of $16.50 and $99.80 per ton in its dead-animal paragraph. The two are not reconciled anywhere on the county site.
Not confirmed: No mattress-specific rate is published, and nothing says whether bedding is recycled; a landfill gate implies disposal and no recovery is claimed.

Visit siteKeep Walton Beautiful & Recycling Center — mattress and box spring drop-off
Open with no published residency test. The only restriction printed beside the price is on trade users: "Mattresses and Box Springs ($10 each. No dealers or manufacturers. Limit 2 per customer)". The county encourages "each and every Walton County citizen" to visit, but sets no identification requirement, no permit and no proof-of-address rule anywhere on either page.
Conditions and source
2051 Leroy Anderson Road SE, Monroe, GA 30655, 770-267-1421. Open Monday through Friday 7:30 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., closed on legal holidays and on the Board of Commissioners' holiday schedule. The price is $10 per mattress or box spring, a maximum of two per customer per visit, so a mattress-and-box-spring set costs $20 in one trip. Staff do not routinely help unload: "We do not assist in unloading large items unless we have adequate staff. We advise you to call 770-267-1421 before coming to our facility if you think you will need assistance." Most of the center's intake — aluminum, glass, car batteries, cardboard, paper, plastics 1 and 2, metal and appliances, cooking oil, motor oil, cell phones, computers — is free; mattresses, dishwashers and microwaves are the charged items, and general household trash is $65 per ton paid by the pound. Yard debris and hazardous waste are refused.
Not confirmed: The county never says whether a mattress left here is recycled, broken down or landfilled. The site is called a recycling center and charges for bedding while taking most recyclables free, which points in no particular direction, so the outcome is recorded as unknown.
Not confirmed: Whether the six rural convenience centers also take mattresses, and at what price, is not published; only the Leroy Anderson Road site names them.

What Lawrenceville itself says
What we established about this city in particular — including where it runs nothing of its own and residents have to look elsewhere.
- A live service notice qualifies the Friday promise. Under Sanitation Updates the city posted on July 10, 2026 at 3:24 PM: "Temporary Delays to Large Item Pick-Up Services - Lawrenceville Utilities Sanitation is experiencing temporary delays in Large Item Pick-Up services due to current operational limitations. Crews are continuing collections as quickly as possible; however, some scheduled pick-ups may need to be moved to a..." The notice was still the current sanitation alert when checked on September 29, 2026, alongside an August 4, 2026 notice that mulch is unavailable until January 8, 2027. Source Not confirmed: The notice is truncated in the alert listing and the city does not publish how long a delayed large-item pickup now takes. Not confirmed: No end date for the delays is published.
- The Gwinnett/Walton Habitat for Humanity ReStore, the nearest ReStore to these cities, is at 2100 Riverside Parkway, Ste. 123A, Lawrenceville, GA 30043, at 770-415-1590, open Tuesday through Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm with donation drop-off Tuesday through Saturday 10:00am-4:30pm. Its donate page says "We'll gladly take new and gently used items off your hands" and describes "new and used appliances, furniture and building materials". It offers free pickup: "Have large items you're unable to haul? We offer free pick-up services. Items must meet store guidelines and are subject to manager approval. Items must also be outside the home in a garage, carport, or driveway for retrieval", with a paid Priority Pick-up by Resupply for faster or in-home collection. Neither the donate page, the FAQ nor the homepage publishes any mattress policy: mattresses are named neither as accepted nor as refused, and the FAQ points to the donate page for "an extensive list of the donation items we accept and what we are unable to take" which the donate page does not in fact carry. Source Not confirmed: No mattress policy is published, so this ReStore cannot be listed as taking or refusing a mattress. Not confirmed: No prices are published for the Priority Pick-up tier. Not confirmed: The store's published service area for free pickup is not defined by city or ZIP.

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.
