Hillsboro Village
The 1920s-bungalow district wedged between Vanderbilt and Belmont — student rentals and mid-rise apartments, and a calendar that revolves around one thing: the early-May move-out crush. When Vanderbilt, Belmont and Lipscomb all close within days, the mattresses, particle-board furniture and mini-fridges pile up fast. We carry them down from the walk-up and haul them in one flat-priced load.
The two weeks in May that define the year
Hillsboro Village (37212) is student territory — a walkable stretch of 1920s bungalows split into rentals and a growing set of mid-rise apartments, hemmed in by Vanderbilt on one side and Belmont on the other, with Lipscomb a few minutes away. For most of the year it hums along like any close-in neighborhood. Then early May arrives and the whole area turns over at once: the universities close within days of each other, leases end, and thousands of students clear out. What they leave behind is remarkably consistent — dorm and apartment mattresses, cheap particle-board furniture, futons, mini-fridges, and desks that aren't worth moving home.
That two-week crush is the defining Hillsboro Village job, and it's exactly the kind of thing Metro's system isn't built for. So we run extra crews through the move-out window and price every job the same way we always do: send a photo, get the exact flat price, with the carry-down, the truck, the disposal and the drive already in it — and no separate sales-tax line, because Tennessee doesn't tax the service. A single mattress, a carload of dorm gear, or a whole four-bedroom apartment — one flat number, and we do the lifting.
What we clear in Hillsboro Village
- Move-out mattresses & box springs — twin through king, dorm and apartment, carried down from the walk-up.
- Dorm & apartment furniture — particle-board desks, dressers, futons, bookshelves and bed frames that won't survive another move.
- Mini-fridges & microwaves — the dorm-and-rental appliance pile, hauled and recycled.
- Whole-apartment clear-outs — a shared unit emptied in one truck-fill at lease-end.
- Landlord turnovers — abandoned furniture and mattresses cleared between tenants, unit by unit.

Three ways to get rid of a move-out mattress in Hillsboro Village
| Option | Cost | Effort | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Metro convenience center (self-haul) | Free (1 bulk item) | You need a truck, straps, and a Tue–Sat daytime trip | One mattress and a pickup truck to borrow |
| Leave it at the curb / by the dumpster | Landlord fines / lost deposit | None — but it's not a legal pickup and can cost you | Nobody — Metro won't take it and the complex bills it back |
| Drag it to a donation center yourself | Free | Most won't take a used mattress; you still haul it | Usable furniture, not mattresses |
| JunkRabbit full-service | Twin $82 · flat from a photo | None — we carry it down and haul it | Move-out day, a walk-up, or a whole apartment |
On move-out day, with no truck and a third-floor walk-up, the flat-price carry-out is usually the only option that actually works.
Does Metro Nashville pick up mattresses at the curb here?
No. Metro Nashville runs no free curbside bulk-item pickup, so a mattress left at the curb or by the complex dumpster isn't a legal pickup — it just sits, and your landlord or property manager can bill the removal back to your deposit. The city's only free route is self-haul to a convenience center like Omohundro Place (1019 Omohundro Pl) or Anderson Lane in Madison — one bulk item free, open Tuesday–Saturday 8:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m., call 311 or 615-862-5000. That's fine if you have a truck and a free weekday, and impossible on move-out morning with a car and a third-floor walk-up. We're the alternative: we carry the mattress and everything else down the stairs and haul it in one flat-priced load.
Where the mattresses and furniture go
We keep what we can out of the landfill. Usable furniture, working mini-fridges and microwaves, and unopened dorm goods are routed to Goodwill of Middle TN and Habitat for Humanity ReStore, where the next class of students can put them back to use. Mattresses go to a recycler where the steel springs and foam can be reclaimed instead of buried. Move-out season generates a mountain of stuff; sorting it is part of the job.
For landlords & property managers
If you manage rentals or a mid-rise around Hillsboro Village, Belmont or the Vanderbilt edge, the crush is your problem too — abandoned mattresses and furniture stacking up faster than your dumpster can hold, right when you need the units turned. We clear them out unit by unit or a building at a time, each job scoped flat from photos, so you're not eating overflow fees or making trip after trip to a convenience center. One flat load, units ready to re-lease.
What Hillsboro Village customers say
"My daughter's Vanderbilt lease ended and the apartment had two mattresses, a busted futon and a mini-fridge nobody wanted. Third floor, no elevator. They carried every bit of it down and hauled it, flat price from a photo. On move-out day that was a lifesaver."
"Four of us moving out of a Belmont-area rental in the same week as everyone else. One flat truck-fill cleared the whole place — mattresses, desks, a dresser. Way easier than borrowing a truck we didn't have."
"I manage a few rentals near the Village and every May the units fill with abandoned mattresses. They clear them out unit by unit at a flat price and I skip the dumpster fees. Reliable through the crush."
