REMINDER: Information Regarding Mattress Disposal
Posted on: December 14, 2023 - 12:17pm
MATTRESS RECYCLING: The Town of Swampscott offers a Mattress Recycling Program to help residents comply with a recent Mass DEP requirement. Residents can now purchase a $30 MATTRESS RECYCLING sticker at Town Hall Customer Service at 22 Monument Ave, or online at https://epay.cityhallsystems.com/. When you purchase a sticker online, the sticker will be mailed to you. Mattresses will be picked up on the 2nd and 4th Saturday of each month and properly disposed of in recycling.
- Mattresses must be left out by the curb on your property and must not block the sidewalk
- Each mattress placed out must have its own mattress sticker
- Each box spring placed out must have its own sticker
- Please do not leave mattress out more than 24 hours in advance of pick-up
- Mattress recycling stickers cannot be purchased from retailers - only online or at Town Hall
- Contact Health Dept prior to purchasing sticker if you know mattress/box spring has bed bugs, as we need to handle them differently
Note: Bulk stickers are not accepted anymore for mattress recycling. As a sofa bed, or futon cushion is not considered mattresses, they would need a bulk sticker for disposal.
