Quick answer for Didsbury

Mattresses, couches and other bulky items should be routed through Mountain View Regional Waste Management Commission’s Didsbury facility rather than the black cart. The commission has described a specific mattress and upholstered-furniture receiving/fee system.

1. What ordinary curbside collection covers

Didsbury has a 2026 address-based calendar and biweekly garbage with compost/recycling collection. Homes use Town black, green and blue carts; carts should be at the curb by 7 a.m. The Town specifically lists mattresses, furniture, carpet, lumber and renovation materials as unacceptable in ordinary black garbage bins.

2. Regional landfill or transfer-station route

Mountain View Regional Waste Management Commission operates Didsbury Landfill and Transfer Site, a user-pay operation listed as open Monday–Saturday 8:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m. For directions and current accepted-material streams, call 403-335-2005.

3. Appliances, chemicals and special waste

Large appliances and construction debris require confirmation with the transfer-station attendant. Paint, waste oil and tires have special material streams; household chemical waste is not ordinary cart garbage.

4. Charges, schedules and booking

Mountain View’s online official transfer-station brochure lists $10 per mattress/box spring and $5 per upholstered couch/chair. Because its date is older, confirm any subsequent changes rather than treating these as locked 2026 prices.

What still needs a last check

The current Town page and commission source establish a drop-off route, but not universal curbside mattress pickup or rates for all construction materials. Confirm the material stream before driving.

Waste and recycling rules can vary by building type, address, operator and material. Large items should not be left at the curb unless your applicable collection program explicitly authorizes them. Facility acceptance is different from curbside acceptance.

Before you load a truck or place an item outside

Check whether municipal or regional service applies to your property.
Identify the item’s exact stream: mattress, furniture, major appliance, metal, hazardous waste, construction material or ordinary household refuse.
Check the official fee, facility hours and any required booking or advance approval.
Secure your load and follow facility instructions for separation or special handling.
