How to Dispose of Mattress in Boston, MA
Boston Public Works treats mattresses separately from Freon/CRT special collection. City guidance: schedule mattress pickup through the city’s Schedule here pathway or use a private hauler — do not book mattresses on the Freon/CRT special-collection appointment. Ordinary furniture may go out with curbside trash; mattresses specifically need that scheduled (or private) channel.
