Services/ Junk Removal & Hauling/ Mattress Disposal
Mattress Disposal

The old mattress,

— gone, and recycled.

Mattresses are a pain to get rid of — curbside won’t take them, the landfill charges extra, and they don’t fit in your car. A vetted local Gopher with a truck carries out the mattress and box spring, hauls them off, and gets them recycled where they can — steel, foam, and fiber reclaimed instead of dumped. You set the offer — a neighbor with a truck, not a franchise fee — and only dump fees are at cost.

Why a Gopher for the haul

Gone for good, priced like a neighbor

Gopher isn’t a franchise or a landfill run you have to make yourself. It’s a neighbor with a truck doing it for you — on three simple rules.

💵

You pay what you want

Make an offer up front or ask for instant bids. A neighbor with a truck hauls it for what you offer — no franchise fee, no surprise landfill surcharge at the end.

💸

Every hauler welcome free

Great junk luggers join Gopher without paying a dime for leads or a cut. No franchise fees, no lead costs — so more trucks compete for your job, and none of that overhead lands on your bill.

♻️

Out of sight, gone

A hauler you pick by name and rating does all the lifting — mattress and box spring out the door — then gets it to a recycler so the steel, foam, and fiber don’t just hit the landfill.

The marketplace edge

One mattress or a whole set? Tell us the size and where it is, and your Gopher can size up the haul and any recycling fees before anyone commits. New to your area? We recommend securing your Gopher first, then posting your job, since Gopher isn’t a fulfillment service (rest assured, we’ll be there soon).
How it works

From the spare room to gone

1

Snap the mattress

Photograph the mattress (and box spring) and where it is in the house.

2

Name your offer

Set what you’ll pay your hauler for the haul — they keep all of it.

3

A neighbor with a truck hauls it

Picked by you or first available — carries it out and loads up.

4

Out of sight, gone

Recycled where possible — and the room left clear before they leave.

Replacing the bed? Gopher it.

Send a neighbor with a truck to haul off your old mattress and box spring — carried out, loaded, and recycled where they can — for what you offer, with only dump fees at cost. No strapping it to your car.
