How to get rid of a mattress in Pleasant View, 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.

• Not an option: Pleasant View City collects its own trash, and its ordinance shuts the curb to a mattress. Chapter 8.05 of the Pleasant View City Municipal Code, 'Garbage & Recycling Collection and Disposal', puts every collection into the automated cart: section 8.05.060 provides that 'All garbage and refuse collection service and all recycling collection service shall be by means of an automated system using containers provided. No garbage, refuse, or recyclables will be collected unless deposited in the approved container.' Section 8.05.070 then states that 'No cans, boxes, barrels or bundled waste other than that contained in the containers shall be collected or placed on the street', and requires that material be placed inside the container 'in such a manner that the attached lid closes completely'. Section 8.05.080, 'Collection-Prohibited Substances', lists what may not be set out or placed in any container for collection by city crews or contractors working for the city, and item E is 'Bulky items, such as Christmas trees, large vehicle parts, tires, appliances or furniture.' The city publishes no bulky-item, large-item or special pickup of any kind: the city's own Solid Waste page describes only the weekly black can and the every-other-week blue recycling can, and the only extra service it offers is an additional black can requested through the city office at 801-782-8529. So an item that cannot go in a closed cart has no curbside route in Pleasant View at all. Source Not confirmed: Section 8.05.080 names furniture among the prohibited bulky items but does not name a mattress or a box spring anywhere in the chapter, so the exclusion is read from the bulky-item line and the closed-lid rule rather than from the word 'mattress'. Not confirmed: The city's fee schedule was not located, so it is not established whether Pleasant View charges for, or will even arrange, a one-time special pickup on request.
• Pleasant View regulates who may haul a mattress away and where it may be taken. Section 8.05.100 of the Pleasant View City Municipal Code makes it 'unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to engage in the business of collection, hauling or disposal of garbage, refuse, swill, rubbish or similar wastes within the corporate limits of the city without first having obtained a license to do so.' Section 8.05.110 bars a hauler from depositing such matter 'at any place except a dumping ground as authorized by Weber County or the city'. Section 8.05.150 forbids anyone from creating or maintaining a private, common or public dump inside the city limits, and section 8.05.160 makes it unlawful to place, leave or deposit garbage, refuse, waste matter, debris or junk 'upon any public street, highway, roadway or lane to include parking spaces within the city'. Section 8.05.170 makes a violation of the chapter a misdemeanor. A resident hiring a removal firm in Pleasant View should therefore expect it to hold a city license, and leaving a mattress at the curb or on a street is itself an offense rather than a missed pickup. Source Not confirmed: Section 8.05.170 classes a violation as a misdemeanor but sets no fine figure, and no schedule of penalties for illegal dumping was found in the code. Not confirmed: The code does not name the city's current contracted hauler, and the city's Solid Waste page does not name one either.
