How to get rid of a mattress in Chesapeake Beach, MD.

Bulk trash is "Large items that normally would not be picked up as household trash". Residents "may call Evergreen Disposal at (240) 468-6677 to schedule a bulk trash pick up from their residence", and "Each household is limited to three (3) bulk items per pickup, per home." Collection is on the household's ordinary trash day — Monday for the North Part of Town and Chesapeake Village, Tuesday for the South Part of Town and Richfield Station — "when it is scheduled with Evergreen Disposal 24 hours before collection". "All SPECIAL PICKUPS will be scheduled by appointment only on your scheduled trash collection day." The Town's refusal list is framed as a landfill rule and covers "dead animals, oil, paint, stains, batteries, construction or remodeling material, manure, fertilizer, tree stumps, mulch, sod, dirt, stone, rocks, cement, bricks, poisons, dangerous acids, caustics, explosives or other dangerous material or items too large or heavy to be loaded in collection vehicles safely by our refuse collectors." Set-out is governed by Town Ordinance 200.3(9), which the Town quotes: receptacles on a sidewalk or alley "shall be placed out no earlier than the evening preceding the day of collection" and "shall be promptly returned to the premises after collection". Collections run on all holidays except New Year's Day, Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day, when the week slides a day.

Not confirmed: The Town does not name mattresses or box springs, so whether its contractor takes one, and whether a mattress and box spring count as one bulk item or two against the three-item cap, is unestablished.

Not confirmed: The Town does not say where collected bulk goes, so the outcome is unknown.

"mattresses/box springs" appear by name on the CAN BE PICKED UP list, alongside bed frames and head boards, sofas, chairs, tables, dressers, desks, stoves, washers, dryers and dishwashers. "Each household is allowed two scheduled pickups per year" and "There is a limit of up to three items per scheduled pick up. If you have more items an additional pick up date will need to be scheduled." Indoor furniture and large indoor appliances only — outdoor furniture, electronics, grills, lawnmowers, exercise equipment and construction materials are excluded. Items must be "placed at the end of your driveway or property (curb line), where the front of your private property meets a public road. Staff cannot go on private roads or private property to get items." Pick ups are scheduled first-come, first-served, by calling Appeal Landfill at 410-326-0210 or submitting an online request. A mattress carries no fee; only refrigerant appliances (refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers) "require a pre-payment fee of $11.00 before pick up is scheduled", and "There is no fee for non-refrigerant appliances".
