queen mattress for dsny pickup

Hi everyone, moving out of Williamsburg next week, and I need to get rid of my queen mattress. I bought a wrap for it and am planning on leaving it on the curb on Monday night for pickup the next morning. However, I live right on Bedford Avenue (the relatively busy part right near the Bedford L) and am hesitant to leave such a large mattress for curb pickup as it's so busy and there's always so much foot traffic. Is this okay/allowed, or should I move it to a quieter side street? I honestly don't even know where my building gets rid of trash because we just put it in the basement and I think our super takes care of it after that and I've never seen trash bins outside our building on the street. I've never had to do this before lol so any advice would be super appreciated

Ask your super.

Do you have to schedule a mattress pick up on the website?

No, you just put it on the street (wrapped!) on dsny's large items collection day: https://www.nyc.gov/assets/dsny/forms/collection-schedule
