2City curbside pickup in Milwaukee
Milwaukee’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.
City of Milwaukee bulky item collection (mattresses)
Only properties with solid waste collection service provided by City of Milwaukee Sanitation Services.
Conditions and source
A queen mattress is the city's own example of a bulky item. Up to one cubic yard (about a recliner, or two garbage carts) may be placed at the regular collection point for the regular collection day with no request needed. More than one cubic yard requires a special pickup requested online or at 414-286-CITY (2489) after the items are already at the collection point, and carries a fee. Requests above six cubic yards, or for loose or mixed materials such as construction waste, recyclables, tires or brush, are refused and referred to the Department of Neighborhood Services as a property violation. Yard waste, electronics, TVs, appliances and tires are not bulky waste and must go to a Drop Off Center.
- $0 — Up to one cubic yard at the regular collection point, no request needed — the city gives a queen mattress as its example.
- $75 — Special pickup of 1-4 cubic yards of bulky items, i.e. more than the one cubic yard taken at the regular collection point. Requested online or at 414-286-CITY after the items are already at the collection point.
- $225 — Special pickup of 4-6 cubic yards of bulky items; requests over 6 cubic yards or for loose or mixed materials are refused and referred to Neighborhood Services.
Not confirmed: The page never states the one-cubic-yard regular pickup is free, only that a fee applies above one cubic yard.
Not confirmed: No wrapping, bagging or bed-bug rule and no per-household frequency limit is published.
Not confirmed: No outcome published for collected bulky waste.

WM Orchard Ridge RDF self-haul mattress drop-off
No residency rule is published. WM publishes separate "Residential Hours" for the site and states no county or municipal limit; Waukesha County names the site for county residents without restricting it. Payment is by check, credit or debit card, or credit account.
Conditions and source
Waukesha County lists this site under the heading "Furniture, Mattresses, Boxsprings" as a "Disposal Option" — "WM Landfills — Orchard Ridge-Menomonee Falls: 262-253-8620" — and again under "Trash" as one of "2 privately-owned landfills if your hauler will not pick up your type of trash". WM's own facility page gives the residential hours as Monday through Friday 6:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday 7 a.m. to 11:45 a.m., and lists municipal solid waste, construction and demolition debris, tires and yard or green waste among the non-hazardous materials accepted. The page states the facility "does not accept hazardous waste" and that select waste streams must be scheduled with the facility. No price schedule is published. The operator's own page does not name mattresses — the referral is Waukesha County's.
Not confirmed: No mattress fee, minimum load charge or per-ton rate is published by Waukesha County or by WM
Not confirmed: WM publishes residential hours but no residency or account rule, so whether any self-hauling household may simply arrive at the scale was not established
Not confirmed: Whether a mattress is buried or diverted is not stated; the facility is described by its operator as a disposal facility

GFL Emerald Park Landfill self-haul mattress drop-off
No residency rule is published. Waukesha County names the site for its residents without restricting it, and the operator publishes no eligibility rule for the location.
Conditions and source
Waukesha County lists this site under the heading "Furniture, Mattresses, Boxsprings" as a "Disposal Option" — "GFL Emerald Park Landfill — Muskego, Wisconsin: 414-529-1360" — and again under "Trash" as one of "2 privately-owned landfills if your hauler will not pick up your type of trash: Emerald Park (GFL) Muskego: 414-529-1360". The street address comes from the county's household hazardous waste page, which lists its Muskego collection site as "W124S10629 South 124th St" and adds "(at the GFL Emerald Park Landfill)". The operator's branch page for Emerald Park carries no address, no hours, no fee schedule and no accepted-materials list, so nothing beyond the county's referral and the address is published about taking a mattress here. The hazardous waste collection held at the same address on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays, 8 a.m. to noon, February through November, is Waukesha County's program and is not a route for a mattress.
Not confirmed: No scale hours are published for self-haul at Emerald Park; the Saturday 8 a.m. to noon hours on the county page belong to the hazardous waste collection, not to the landfill
Not confirmed: No mattress fee, minimum charge or per-ton rate is published by Waukesha County or by the operator
Not confirmed: Whether a self-hauling household may use the scale, and whether proof of residency is required, is not published
Not confirmed: Whether a mattress taken here is recycled or buried is not stated

Visit siteGFL West Bend self-haul mattress and box spring drop-off
No residency rule is published. Washington County lists the site in a county-wide guide without a county or municipal limit, and the only access instruction it gives is "Calling before dropping off is always recommended." The county adds that "No endorsement of any business by Washington County is intended."
Conditions and source
Washington County's "Disposal / Recycling Reference Guide as of 01/01/2026" answers "Mattresses, Boxsprings" with "Only Accepted at these locations." and points to this site among them. The county's entry reads "GFL Environmental (formerly Veolia-Advanced Disposal) (M-F 7am-3pm) … 262.334.5618 / 803 N River Rd., West Bend, WI 53090 … (TV's, microwaves and other electronics) NO clean chemical barrels, NO compost, NO fryable & nonfryable asbestos accepted at this location; Tires fees vary, No Appliances accepted that contain Freon-Other appliances are accepted – (Minimum. scale charges do apply) (Furniture / Mattresses / Box Springs accepted) – Call for pricing – subject to change." Open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Furniture is accepted on the same line as mattresses and box springs. Appliances containing Freon are refused here, as are clean chemical barrels, compost and friable and non-friable asbestos. A minimum scale charge applies, and the price for a mattress is not published — the county says to call.
Not confirmed: No mattress or box spring price is published; the county's instruction is "Call for pricing – subject to change"
Not confirmed: The amount of the minimum scale charge, and whether it applies to a single mattress carried in a car, is not published
Not confirmed: Whether a mattress taken here is recycled or transferred to a landfill is not stated
Not confirmed: Published hours come from the county's guide rather than from the operator's own page, which carries no page for this location

6Donation options in Milwaukee
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 Milwaukee itself says
What we established about this city in particular — including where it runs nothing of its own and residents have to look elsewhere.
- Not an option: Milwaukee Rescue Mission's items-of-need page lists 'Used mattresses' among the donations it cannot accept, alongside used toys, furniture, Christmas trees, baby cribs, large appliances, older televisions, used blankets and homemade baked goods. It accepts new or like-new clothing, new personal care and hygiene items, gently used or new shoes and accessories at its Distribution Center, 830 N 19th St, Milwaukee, WI 53233, Mondays through Fridays 10am-6pm. Recorded so a Milwaukee page does not send mattress donors to this shelter. Source
What Milwaukee County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Milwaukee and its neighbors.
- Milwaukee County runs no waste service a household can use. The county's only solid waste office is Environmental Services, inside the Department of Administrative Services, and the county describes it as a unit that "provides technical and managerial services concerning environmental and sustainability issues for Milwaukee County's building and infrastructure assets and natural resources." It lists "Recycling" and "Solid waste" among the areas in which it provides "guidance and expertise to Milwaukee County Departments," beside underground storage tanks, asbestos, air quality and brownfields. That is compliance work on county buildings, parks, the airport and the transit system. The county publishes no landfill, no transfer station, no drop-off site, no bulky item collection, no clean-up day and no mattress route of any kind, and it sets no fee. In Milwaukee County every answer is municipal: the city or village a reader lives in runs or contracts the collection, and that is where their answer is. Source Not confirmed: City and village programs are out of scope at the county layer and are researched on their own pages; the City of Milwaukee's drop-off centers and bulky collection are already recorded there. Not confirmed: No county-wide free dump day, amnesty event or disposal voucher appears anywhere on Milwaukee County's own pages.
- The one drop-off program open to every household in Milwaukee County is the Home Haz Mat Collection, and it is run by the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District rather than by county government. MMSD's eligibility is stated as "MMSD can only accept waste that is generated by households or apartments in Milwaukee County"; businesses, contractors, schools, churches, non-profits and government agencies are excluded. Three sites take drop-offs year round at no charge: 6060 S. 13th Street, Milwaukee, just north of College Avenue, open Tuesday 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.; 3879 W. Lincoln Avenue, Milwaukee, open Thursday through Saturday 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.; and W124 N9451 Boundary Road, Menomonee Falls, open Monday and Wednesday 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. What it takes is household chemicals: automotive fluids, gasoline, oily rags, latex paint up to 20 gallons per visit, non-latex paint, thinners and solvents, pesticides, pool chemicals, drain cleaners, mercury thermometers, batteries, certain light bulbs and propane cylinders. Its not-accepted list names clothes dryers, refrigerators, washing machines, microwaves, computers, televisions and tires. This is the county-wide program a reader will be sent to, and it is not a mattress route. Source Not confirmed: Mattresses and furniture appear on neither MMSD's accepted list nor its not-accepted list, both of which cover chemicals and appliances. That is an absence from the list, not a published refusal.
- The only landfill inside Milwaukee County will not let most of the county through the gate. Waste Management's Metro Recycling and Disposal Facility sits at 10712 S. 124th Street in Franklin, and the landfill regulations the City of Franklin publishes, effective January 2021, limit self-haul to "Franklin, Town of Norway, Town of Raymond residents only" - Norway and Raymond are in Racine County, so Franklin is the only Milwaukee County municipality covered. The rules add that "Metro will be tracking all loads using a handheld ID scanner. This system will verify residency, usage, tire allowance, and frequency," and that "Norway Residents can still show their dump pass, but a valid ID must accompany it." Loads are "Residential Waste Only-NO COMMERCIAL WASTE!" with a "2 Cubic Yard Maximum for Garbage," five regular car or truck tires per year, and no boats, jet skis, paddle boats or hot tubs, no hazardous waste, no electronics including televisions, no microwaves, no compressed cylinders or propane tanks, and no salvaging. "Waste Management reserves the right to reject any self-hauled load." A reader in Milwaukee, West Allis, Wauwatosa, Oak Creek or any other municipality in the county cannot self-haul here at all, which is why the county has no shared dump answer. Source Not confirmed: The Franklin regulations set no disposal price, so no fee is recorded for this landfill. Not confirmed: Mattresses are named neither as accepted nor as prohibited in the regulations. The prohibition list is specific rather than exhaustive, and an absence from it is not permission.
- Not an option: Milwaukee Habitat for Humanity's ReStore will not take a mattress. Its own Items We Accept page puts "Mattresses or Box Springs" under the heading "Items We Cannot Resell," beside sleeper sofas, large entertainment centers or armoires, hospital beds, pool tables, pianos and used cultured marble vanity tops. The same page accepts "Sofas, Chairs (e.g., living room, recliner), Tables, Dressers, Bed Frames" and says upholstered furniture "cannot have any stains, tears, excessive wear, pet damage or odors." So a bed frame can be donated and the mattress that sat on it cannot, and a reader planning a donation run should not load the mattress. 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.
