2City curbside pickup in Mount Horeb
Mount Horeb’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.
Village of Mount Horeb mattress and box spring collection (Pellitteri Waste Systems)
Village of Mount Horeb households on the Village's Pellitteri collection. The Village states that 'Trash and recycling collection will be managed by Pellitteri Waste Systems', and the Village Code, § 11.09(4)(b), requires residents to 'Arrange for separate payment and collection for bulk items and major appliances/electronics per current collection contract.'
Conditions and source
Prepay and book by calling Pellitteri at (608) 257-4285; collection is on the next available pickup day, which may differ from the normal cart day. Items must be at the curb or end of the driveway, within 5 feet of the street, by 6:00 a.m. on the scheduled pickup day. Each mattress and each box spring must be in its own plastic or vinyl storage bag and must not be bagged together. Village Code § 11.09 makes it a violation to place a bulk item at the curb before arrangements for its pickup and disposal have been made, so book and pay first.
Not confirmed: Neither the community's own pages nor the hauler's list says where a collected mattress is taken, so no recycling or disposal outcome is established.
Not confirmed: No limit is published on the number of bulky items one household may book at a time.

What Mount Horeb itself says
What we established about this city in particular — including where it runs nothing of its own and residents have to look elsewhere.
- The Village of Mount Horeb's Code puts a bulky item on the resident and sets a penalty for getting it wrong. Section 11.09(2) defines 'BULK ITEM' as 'Trash that is too large to fit into designated trash collection containers. Examples include furniture and appliances.' Section 11.09(4)(b) requires residents on Village collection to 'Place all recyclables and solid waste materials within Village-approved containers at curbside no later than 7:00 a.m. on the day of collection' and to 'Arrange for separate payment and collection for bulk items and major appliances/electronics per current collection contract.' The same section states that no person shall 'Place any bulk items or major appliances for collection at curbside prior to making arrangements for their pickup and disposal' — so setting a mattress at the curb before it is booked and paid for is itself a violation here. Section 11.06, Improper refuse disposal, added January 8, 2025 by Ord. No. 2025-01, defines refuse to include 'any waste material, whether recyclable or nonrecyclable' and provides that 'No person shall dispose of, deposit, throw, scatter or place any refuse on or within any public street, alley, park, sidewalk or other public place, or within or upon any private property or premises, including private trash receptacles and dumpsters, whether owned, kept or controlled by such person or not,' with 'The penalty for violation of this section shall be a Class III penalty as provided in Section 25.04 of this Municipal Code.' Section 11.09(2) also lets larger buildings opt out: for 'five-unit residential dwelling units or larger, the property owner has the option to contract privately for collection at the owner's cost,' after which the Village removes the collection charge from the monthly utility bill. Source Not confirmed: The dollar range of a Class III penalty is set in § 25.04 of the Mount Horeb Code, which was not read.

- 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.
