How to get rid of a mattress in Harrisville, UT.

Companies that come to your home and carry the mattress out, so you need no vehicle. The prices below are starting prices unless stated — stairs, box springs and extra items add to them.

Most charities will not take a used mattress. These are the ones we checked, including the ones that say no.

• The Salvation Army (satruck.org): accepted-items list includes 'Mattresses' and beds; also says local ordinances and need vary by location and to call 1-800-SA-TRUCK to confirm what a local center accepts. Source
• Doesn’t take mattresses. Habitat for Humanity national ReStore guide: 'Mattresses and box springs are not accepted.' Source

Policies vary by branch. Call before you carry one over — we asked each of the big three directly: Goodwill, the Salvation Army and Habitat for Humanity.

• Not an option: Harrisville City runs a free clean-up twice a year and a mattress is not welcome at either one. The city's Cleanup Days page states in terms that 'The ONLY items accepted at the Spring Cleanup event will be Green Waste', that garbage and debris are not collected at the event, and that residents must take those items to the Weber County Solid Waste Transfer Station instead. A second city page describing a 2024 event made the same split, asking that items 'not free of nails, screws, staples, metals, hardware, etc.' go in garbage or debris containers rather than the green waste dumpsters. The event is restricted: 'Harrisville Residents Only. Proof of residency is required.', a requirement the city added to limit costs and misuse of the dumpsters. It is held at the Public Works building at 708 West 1750 North, entered from 750 West. Harrisville ran its 2026 spring clean-up from Wednesday, April 22 through Saturday, April 25, 2026, with green waste dumpsters open 6:30 AM to 8:00 PM Wednesday through Friday and 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM on the Saturday, and it ran the 2025 fall clean-up November 5 through 8, 2025, again for green waste only. The city's 2026 Resident Brochure lists 'City Clean-up days available every spring and fall' among its amenities. A resident who reads 'free city clean-up' and loads a mattress will be turned away: the city's own page sends that trip to the county transfer station. Source Not confirmed: The city publishes the restriction as 'green waste only' rather than listing a mattress under a not-accepted heading, so the refusal is read from the exclusive wording of the accepted list. Not confirmed: No dates are published for the fall 2026 or the spring 2027 clean-up.
• Harrisville's regular collection is contracted to Waste Management and its code leaves no curbside route for an oversized item. The city's 2026 Resident Brochure and its City Utilities page both state that Waste Management is the contracted provider for garbage and recycling in Harrisville, that new connections and service requests go through the City by calling 801-782-4100 option 3 or the online garbage service request form, and that the monthly garbage charge is billed by Bona Vista Water Improvement District along with water, sewer, storm water and street lights. Chapter 4.03 of the Harrisville City Municipal Code, 'Garbage and Refuse', requires every owner, lessee or occupant to keep suitable containers and provides that 'No such receptacle shall be filled to exceed sixty (60) pounds in weight, including the weight of such receptacle', with each receptacle to have handles for convenient lifting and all garbage placed 'in rainproof and flyproof containers, with proper covers'. Section 4.03.070 makes it unlawful to place on any public street, alley or park 'any rubbish, garbage, debris, grass cuttings, leaves, tree limbs, branches, sticks, stones, junk, cast-off clothing, papers, printed matter, dirt or other discarded thing or matter incident to house cleaning or yard cleaning, except on regular garbage collection days, and except in containers as herein set forth', makes it unlawful to collect, haul or dispose of garbage or similar wastes in the city without a license from the City Council, and bars unauthorized dumping. The chapter provides for no bulky-item, large-item or special pickup. Source Not confirmed: Neither the city's utilities page nor its brochure publishes the monthly garbage rate, and the fee schedule was not read. Not confirmed: Chapter 4.03 names no mattress and no bulky item, so the absence of a curbside route rests on the 60-pound cap and on the rule that nothing may be set out except in containers.
