How to Dispose of Mattress in Austin, TX
Austin Resource Recovery residential customers (single-family through fourplex) schedule on-demand bulk collection via the Austin Recycles app, austintexas.gov/ondemand, or 311 — up to three bulk collections per calendar year. Furniture and other oversized household items are collected curbside by appointment (set out by 5:30 a.m.; separate metal vs non-metal piles). The Recycle and Reuse Center explicitly does not accept mattresses or furniture — use on-demand bulk or reuse/donation first.
