Mattress Removal in Manitowoc, WI
Nobody wants your old mattress. Not the thrift store, not the neighbor, and not the person on Marketplace who said they would come Tuesday and then stopped answering. So it ends up folded against the garage wall, taking up a parking spot for another season.
We take it. One call, we carry it down the stairs — box spring and frame too, if you want — and it is off your property, usually within a day or two.
Why a mattress is harder to get rid of than it looks
It will not fit in a trash cart, it flops around when one person tries to carry it, and a king will not bend around a stairwell landing no matter how many times you try. Most donation centers turn used mattresses away entirely for sanitation reasons, which is a rule nobody tells you about until you have already loaded it into the truck.
Curbside bulky-item rules differ between Manitowoc, Two Rivers, and the surrounding towns and villages, and they change. Check with yours before you drag it out — a mattress that sits uncollected at the curb is your problem again by evening, only now it is wet.
What we take with it
- Box springs and foundations
- Bed frames, headboards, and footboards
- Memory foam, pillow-top, and hybrid mattresses of any size
- Futon mattresses and sleeper-sofa inserts
- Crib and toddler mattresses
- Adjustable bases — heavy, awkward, and routine for us
Getting it out is the part people underestimate
The mattress is not heavy so much as it is uncooperative. Two people, a controlled carry, and some attention to the banister and the drywall at the turn is what keeps a ten-minute job from leaving a mark on your stairwell. That part is included — you do not have to have it staged by the door.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you pick up just one mattress?
Yes. Single-item pickups are a normal part of the week. If you have anything else lying around, adding it to the same trip is usually cheaper than a second visit later.
Can I leave it at the curb for you?
Yes, and curbside pickups can often happen without you home. Inside the house is fine too — we carry it from wherever it is.
Do mattresses get recycled?
Where a facility will take them, yes — the steel springs and wood frames are recoverable. Mattress recycling options in northeast Wisconsin are limited, though, so we will not promise every mattress avoids the landfill. We would rather tell you that than pretend otherwise.
What about a mattress with bed bugs?
Tell us when you call. We can still take it, but it gets wrapped before it leaves the room so nothing travels through the rest of the house on the way out.
