When you buy a new mattress and are having it delivered, ask your retailer about taking your old one back.

The recycling fee, as approved by the state, is $10.50.
Your old mattress doesn't have to end up in a landfill. Your retailer is required by law to offer to pick up your old mattress, at no cost, when they deliver your new one (exceptions apply). When a mattress and box spring gets recycled, the steel, foam, fiber and wood become new products. Like steel beams, industrial filters, carpet padding and even mulch for your garden.
Most transfer stations allow free drop off for their town residents and there are several sites that allow access to all Connecticut residents.
