2City curbside pickup in Bainbridge Island
Bainbridge Island’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.
Bainbridge Disposal loose and bulky material collection, UTC Tariff No. 18
Bainbridge Disposal customers inside the City of Bainbridge Island. The city sets no rates itself: BIMC 13.28.060 and 13.28.080 leave them to the company's WUTC tariff, which the city reviews before the Commission acts, and the tariff's tax table names "All charges within the City of Bainbridge" (Ordinance No. 98-17, 5.00%).
Conditions and source
Item 150 of Tariff No. 18 sets bulky material on a regular route at $26.76 per cubic yard for 1 to 4 cubic yards, $26.76 per additional cubic yard, a minimum charge of $26.76 per pickup, and a carry charge of $7.03 for each 5 feet over 8 feet; special trips are billed at the Item 160 time rates. Effective April 1, 2024. The city's code defines bulky waste as "large items of refuse, such as appliances, furniture, and other oversize wastes which would typically not fit into reusable solid waste containers". Separately, the company's own 842-JUNK crew names mattresses on its accepted list but will not enter a house: "everything must be outside and accessible", and it quotes "a flat rate for pickup plus a charge for materials" only by telephone.
Not confirmed: The tariff never names a mattress, so there is no per-mattress figure and no stated cubic-yard equivalent for one.
Not confirmed: The 842-JUNK bulky service publishes no price at all.
Not confirmed: Whether a collected mattress is landfilled or recycled is not stated.

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.
What Bainbridge Island itself says
What we established about this city in particular — including where it runs nothing of its own and residents have to look elsewhere.
- Bainbridge Disposal also runs a bulky collection under the name 842-JUNK. Mattresses are named on its accepted list, alongside old appliances, furniture, TVs, computers, hot water tanks, lawnmowers, bikes, tires and barbecues; hazardous waste, asbestos, industrial waste, medical waste and soil and rocks are refused. The crew will not go indoors: asked "Will you pick up items located inside my house, like a couch or mattress?" the company answers "No, everything must be outside and accessible." Source Not confirmed: No price is published: "There is a flat rate for pickup plus a charge for materials. We can tell you the exact amount of our service when you call to schedule a pickup."
What Kitsap County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Bainbridge Island and its neighbors.
- Kitsap County's facilities page lists the Olympic View Transfer Station at 9380 SW Barney White Road, Bremerton (open daily 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.), the Hansville Recycling and Garbage Facility at 7791 NE Ecology Road, Kingston, the Olalla Recycling and Garbage Facility at 2850 SE Burley Olalla Road, Olalla, the South Kitsap Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facility and the privately owned Bainbridge Island Transfer Station. The Silverdale Recycling and Garbage Facility is temporarily closed from September 21, 2026 through April 1, 2027 for construction; customers are pointed to curbside service through WM. Source
Washington mattress disposal rules
- County warehouse referral has Everett locality and 425-931-3670; primary operator now directs drop-off to Mukilteo and uses 425-876-0107. County directory appears stale for this referral. Source
- No enacted Washington mattress stewardship law found. SB 6271 (2026; companion HB 2633) would create mattress producer responsibility organizations; referred to Senate Environment, Energy & Technology Jan 21, 2026, public hearing Feb 4, 2026, no later action shown. Source
- Ecology's 1-800-RECYCLE locator (1800recycle.wa.gov) lists 'Home & Garden - Mattresses' as a searchable material; hotline 1-800-732-9253, Mon-Fri 9am-3pm. Ecology's How to Recycle page also directs residents to county or city solid waste officials. Source
- There is no mattress recycling program in Washington State, and the absence is worth stating because both neighbors have one. The Mattress Recycling Council, which runs the Bye Bye Mattress collection network, says of itself: "We currently provide resources, education and support for programs in California, Connecticut, Oregon and Rhode Island." Washington is not among them. A Washington resident has no free state-funded drop-off of the kind an Oregonian twenty miles away in Milton-Freewater or Hermiston has, and no Bye Bye Mattress collection site to look up. What the county charges at the gate is what the resident actually pays. Source

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.
