Mattress Disposal & Recycling in Santa Ana

Same-day mattress and box spring pickup, taken to a California-certified recycler rather than a landfill.

The Junkiez provides same-day mattress disposal & recycling in Santa Ana. Same-day mattress and box spring pickup, taken to a California-certified recycler rather than a landfill.

Getting rid of a mattress in Southern California is deliberately hard. You cannot put it in a bin, most landfills will not accept it loose, and city bulky-item pickup often means waiting two to three weeks with the thing sitting in your driveway. We pick it up the same day, carry it down whatever stairs are involved, and deliver it to a recycler under the state programme.

Mattresses in Santa Ana

Santa Ana is the densest city in Orange County and one of the densest in California, which makes it a multi-family and turnover market above all. It also has genuinely historic housing — Floral Park and French Park are full of 1920s and 1930s homes with detached garages and deep lots that produce substantial estate clear-outs.

Dense apartment blocks in the central districts have limited loading space and tight stairwells, so we work fast at the kerb and send enough crew to avoid a long carry becoming a long job. The historic districts have rear alley access, which is the better route. The county civic centre area has restricted parking worth planning around.

What we take

  • Mattresses — twin, full, queen, king, California king
  • Box springs and foundations
  • Memory foam, latex and hybrid mattresses
  • Crib and toddler mattresses
  • Futon mattresses and sofa-bed inserts
  • Adjustable bed bases and bed frames
  • Mattress toppers and protectors

Why you cannot just throw it away

California banned mattresses from most landfill disposal streams and created the Mattress Recycling Council programme, funded by a recycling fee collected at the point of sale. Roughly 75% of a mattress by weight — steel springs, polyurethane foam, cotton fibre and timber — is genuinely recoverable. Dumping one illegally in LA County carries fines that start in the hundreds and climb fast.

Frequently asked questions

Do you actually recycle the mattress?

Yes. We deliver to a recycler participating in the California Mattress Recycling Council programme, where the steel, foam and fibre are separated and reclaimed.

Can you take a mattress with bed bugs?

Yes, but tell us when booking. It gets sealed in plastic in the room and routed to disposal rather than recycling.

Can I just leave it outside for you?

You can, though check your city's rules first — several LA-area cities issue citations for bulky items left at the kerb. We are happy to come inside and get it.

What customers say

My mother had let things get out of hand and I was dreading the whole process. They came in an unmarked truck, never made a single comment, and asked before removing anything that was not obviously rubbish. Took four days and they never once rushed her.

Verified customer Los Angeles

I called about one old fridge and they told me my utility would collect it free and pay me for it. They talked themselves out of a job. When I needed a full garage cleared two months later I did not call anyone else.

Six-person spa behind a narrow side gate. Two other companies looked at it and passed. These guys drained it, cut it into sections and had the patio swept by 4pm. The price they quoted on arrival was the price I paid.
