How mattress disposal works in Chicago
Chicago picks up mattresses for free, but it has to be requested first. The Department of Streets and Sanitation collects mattresses through its Bulky Item Pickup by calling 311 or using the CHI311 app for one-to-four-unit buildings, and a request typically takes about five to seven business days. Illinois has no statewide mattress recycling law, so there is no producer-funded program, and the city program is the main free path.
The city recommends wrapping a mattress in a plastic disposal bag before it goes out, both to meet pickup requirements and to keep it clean, a five-to-ten-dollar item from a hardware store. A mattress is roughly eighty percent recyclable once broken down, springs to scrap steel and foam to carpet padding, and abandoned bulky items in Chicago alleys are an active code-enforcement target, so an unscheduled mattress left out is a violation risk.
A booked Furniture Disposal Plus pickup skips the 311 wait, the wrap, and the alley set-out. Your Loaders come to the mattress wherever it sits, up from a garden unit or down from a three-flat, on a window you choose, often same-day or next-day across Chicago ZIP codes, and it routes to recycling where facilities exist. Furniture Disposal Plus serves Chicago and the metro from Evanston to Oak Park and Cicero.

Chicago mattress questions
Mattress removal in Chicago, common questions
How fast can you pick up a mattress in Chicago?
Same-day and next-day windows are available across most Chicago ZIP codes, from Lincoln Park and Wicker Park to Logan Square, Pilsen, and Lakeview. Availability shows when you enter your item and address.
Do I have to use the 311 bulk pickup instead?
No. Chicago's DSS pickup runs through 311 for one-to-four-unit buildings and takes about five to seven business days. Furniture Disposal Plus carries the mattress out on a window you choose, with one price up front and no wait.
Does the mattress need to be wrapped?
Chicago recommends a plastic disposal bag for city pickup. With Furniture Disposal Plus your Loaders carry it out as is, so no wrapping is needed on your end.
Do you take the box spring too?
Yes, and a second item usually costs less once the first is booked. Add both when you get your price.
