Connecticut will unveil the nation’s first mattress recycling program, Bye Bye Mattress, on May 1 in Hartford.
The program was established by state law in 2013, calling for the manufacturers and consumers of mattresses to pay for their end-of-life disposal under a concept called product stewardship. Connecticut has a similar product stewardship program for paint.
The Bye Bye Mattress program is funded by a $9 fee collected when a new mattress or box spring is sold. The program is administered by the Mattress Recycling Council, which is made up of industry professionals.
Under the program, any used mattress that is discarded for city collection, picked up by a retailer, or dropped off by a consumer will be sent to a mattress recycler, who will break it down to reuse its components for other products.
