Cheapest
Kendall County Solid Waste Site, Boerne — mattress and box spring drop-off ($15 each, any size)
Kendall County publishes no residency or proof-of-address requirement for this site and quotes one price list rather than resident and non-resident rates. The only stated limit on who the site is for is the kind of waste: "By state law this facility will accept household waste only."
Conditions and source
46 Spanish Pass Road, Boerne, Texas 78006, 830-537-4542, open Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Under the heading "Bulk" the county prices "Mattresses or Box Springs", "any size", at $15.00 — the same rate as an overstuffed chair or recliner, against $25.00 for a couch or sofa. Bagged trash is $2.00 for a small bag up to 17 gallons and $3.00 for a large bag of 18 to 50 gallons, and a pickup truck load is $30.00 and up. The site takes household waste only and states "No commercial waste or contractor's waste accepted", naming building materials, shingles, wood, lumber, siding, fencing, paint cans, propane tanks, tires, concrete, soil and rocks as examples. Appliances or equipment containing a refrigerant are not accepted. The county's separate brush site on Charger Boulevard is not an alternative for a mattress: its own rules refuse any garbage or refuse.
Not confirmed: The county does not say whether a mattress taken here is landfilled or recycled.
Not confirmed: No residency rule is published, so it is not established whether someone from outside Kendall County may use the site or at what price.

Kendall County Solid Waste Site, Comfort — mattress and box spring drop-off ($15 each, any size)
Kendall County publishes no residency or proof-of-address requirement for this site and quotes one price list rather than resident and non-resident rates. The only stated limit on who the site is for is the kind of waste: "By state law this facility will accept household waste only."
Conditions and source
28 FM 473, Comfort, Texas 78013, 830-331-8251, open the second and fourth Saturday of each month 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. — so this site is open two days a month, and a reader who misses them has the county's Boerne site on Spanish Pass Road instead. The county publishes one fee schedule for its solid waste sites, which under the heading "Bulk" prices "Mattresses or Box Springs", "any size", at $15.00. The site takes household waste only and states "No commercial waste or contractor's waste accepted", naming building materials, shingles, wood, lumber, siding, fencing, paint cans, propane tanks, tires, concrete, soil and rocks as examples. Appliances or equipment containing a refrigerant are not accepted.
Not confirmed: The county does not say whether a mattress taken here is landfilled or recycled.
Not confirmed: The fee schedule is published for the county's solid waste sites together rather than per site, so it is not separately confirmed that the Comfort site takes every category the Boerne site does.
Not confirmed: No residency rule is published, so it is not established whether someone from outside Kendall County may use the site or at what price.

What Kendall County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Boerne and its neighbors.
- Not an option: Kendall County's third site takes brush and nothing else, so it is not a mattress route. The county brush site is at 202 Charger Boulevard, Boerne, Texas 78006, across from Champion High School, open Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., phone 830-331-8156, with the County Engineer at 830-249-9343. What it accepts is "Trees and Brush, whole or in sections. No stumps or root balls allowed" and "Leaves and lawn clippings. Must be removed from plastic bags." What it refuses is stated as "Household or Commercial Construction Materials (lumber, metal, plywood, concrete, metals, and trash) of any kind" and "Any garbage or refuse", along with thorny material such as mesquite, cactus and agave. Prices are by the load: a residential tree and brush load is $5.00 small or $10.00 large, bags of leaves and grass are $0.50 each, Christmas trees are $2.00 each, and commercial incoming loads run from $20.00 for a 1-yard dump truck to $200.00 for a 20-yard one. Outgoing mulch is free for residential users and $10.00 per bucket load for commercial users. The site may close without notice for weather, maintenance, or at the discretion of the Commissioners Court. A reader with a mattress should go to the county's Spanish Pass Road or Comfort solid waste site instead, where a mattress is priced; the brush site's own rules refuse garbage and refuse of any kind. Source Not confirmed: The brush site page publishes no residency rule; it distinguishes residential from commercial users for pricing only.
- Kendall County collects nothing at the curb. The county lists its solid waste work under the County Engineer, whose own sub-navigation carries exactly three waste items — "Brush Site", "Recycling" and "Solid Waste" — and the County Engineer's office describes its responsibility as "overseeing the engineering design, construction administration, and maintenance of county roads" and related infrastructure. There is no bulky-item collection, no large-item pickup, no clean-up day and no curbside service of any kind among the county's twenty-two listed departments. A household in unincorporated Kendall County that wants a mattress gone hauls it to the county's own solid waste site at 46 Spanish Pass Road in Boerne or at 28 FM 473 in Comfort, where the county prices a mattress, or pays a private hauler. The County Engineer is at 400 East Blanco Road, Boerne, Texas 78006, 830-554-4177, open Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and closed for lunch from noon to 1 p.m. Source Not confirmed: The county publishes no list of the private haulers serving unincorporated Kendall County, so there is no county-sourced answer for a reader who cannot haul a mattress themselves.

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.
