What that means for you
Use the free pickup first. If it is one mattress and you can get it to the road, two free pickups a year with 48 hours' notice is the right answer and we would tell you so on the phone. We could not confirm whether a mattress and box spring count as one item or two, so ask UWS.
Where we come in: when you have used both pickups, when there are more than two items, or when the mattress is in an upstairs bedroom and nobody can move it.
Questions from Bosque Farms
How many items can UWS take on a bulk pickup?

When is the next Village clean-up?
The Village runs them in spring and fall. We could not find 2026 dates, so call 505-869-2358.
