Question is (other than having the trash folks come and pick it up which I guess is the simplest option) is there any place or charity that will come and PICK UP a queen mattress as a donation? I called a few and they don't take mattresses. I'd rather donate it than junk it but I just want to get it out of here. Our 2/2 doesn't have lots of free walls to lean it on and it doesn't look great in the livingroom!! 
Anyone know of a Church or organization that takes them? |
Try Bargains and Blessings in Wildwood. They might take it. I don't know if the thrift store (behind Wal-Mart on 466) takes used mattresses or not, but it might be worth a call.
Otherwise (assuming it is a nice day) put it out by the curb on the afternoon before your scheduled trash pickup. There seems to be a cottage industry here (maybe several) that has people driving around neighborhoods looking for discarded items. I've discarded several items that way: a table, box of wine glasses, numerous other things. They barely last an hour.
