- Tip
- The pile must fit in a space 3.5 ft tall × 3 ft deep × 9 ft long, or be two large household pieces. Rental homes count as commercial property, so landlords can't book this service. You can also drop off a mattress at North Texas Municipal Water District sites (the first 2 visits a month are free with a Texas driver's license and a City water bill dated within 30 days).
