Mattress removal
in Miami.
Mattress removal in Miami works by photos with JunkZipp: send photos of the mattress, box spring and frame, approve one price that already covers the extra disposal cost, and a hauler with license and insurance on file with us carries it out of your home. A new mattress delivery usually leaves the old set behind, box spring and frame included.
We are opening Miami-Dade one area at a time. Leave your email and your zip, and we will tell you the moment we are taking pickups where you are.
Mattress removal in Miami-Dade, how it works
Many new-mattress deliveries in Miami-Dade only take away the one piece being replaced, so the box spring, the frame, or the crib mattress from the nursery down the hall usually stays behind. That leftover is the usual mattress job: old sets pulled out of a Kendall townhouse guest room, a futon left after a college move-out, a daybed mattress from a kid's room that got upgraded. None of it fits in a regular trash can, and most buildings will not let you leave it at the curb outside a scheduled pickup.
Florida does not run a statewide mattress recycling program the way California, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Oregon do, so most mattresses that come out of Miami-Dade homes end up landfilled no matter who hauls them. We are not going to tell you otherwise. What we can do is get it out of the house, off the elevator, or out of the garage, load it onto one truck with everything else you are clearing, and take it to a facility that can legally take a mattress.
Condo and high-rise buildings across Brickell, Aventura, and Coral Gables often ask a vendor for a certificate of insurance and a reserved service elevator window before anyone can bring a mattress through the lobby. Check with your building management first so the timing works on both ends. If the mattress has bed bugs or heavy staining, say so in your photos rather than letting the crew find out on site. That is normal information for us, not a reason to turn a job down, and it changes how the crew wraps and carries it.
The process is the same for one mattress or a whole bedroom set. Send photos of what is leaving, a real person looks at them and sends back one price, and you approve it before anything is scheduled. A licensed, insured independent hauler who covers your part of the county does the carrying. You pay JunkZipp once the mattress is out, not the crew, and there is no fee just to get a price.
What we take
- Mattresses and box springs
- Bed frames and headboards
- Futon mattresses
- Crib and daybed mattresses
- Sleeper sofa mattresses
- Bunk bed mattresses
- Adjustable bed bases
- Mattress toppers and pads
We take mattresses in any condition, including bed bugs, mold, or heavy staining, but say so in your photos first so the crew wraps it correctly. If you're in a condo or high-rise, check with building management about a certificate of insurance and a service elevator window before you book.
Questions people ask
- How much does mattress removal cost in Miami?
- JunkZipp prices it from your photos rather than a chart. Mattresses and box springs cost extra to dispose of, so the one price you approve already includes that, and nothing is owed until the mattress is gone.
- Do you take mattresses with bed bugs or stains?
- Yes. Tell us in your photos so the crew knows before they arrive and can wrap it properly. Bed bugs, mold, and heavy staining do not change whether we take it, they just change how it gets carried out and loaded onto the truck.
- Can you pick up a mattress from a condo or high-rise in Brickell or Aventura?
- Yes. Many buildings ask for a certificate of insurance and a reserved service elevator window before a vendor can bring a mattress through the lobby, so check with your building management before you send photos. Tell us the building's requirements and we work around the window it gives us.
- Will Florida recycle my old mattress?
- Not through any state program. Florida does not have a statewide mattress recycling law like California, Connecticut, Rhode Island, or Oregon, so most mattresses here end up landfilled regardless of who hauls them. We take it to a facility that can legally accept it and get it out of your space either way.
- Can you take just the box spring, not the whole mattress set?
- Yes. That is a common situation: a retailer delivered a new mattress but left the old box spring, frame, or headboard behind because they only took the piece being replaced. Send photos of whatever is left and we price the load as it sits.
- Do you take crib mattresses and kids' bed frames?
- Yes. Crib mattresses, daybed mattresses, bunk bed frames, and toddler bed frames come up often, especially during a nursery changeover or a move. Include them in your photos along with anything else leaving the room.
