Mattress Removal Program
Please be advised that the Public Works Department has revised the curbside bulky pick-up of bedding mattresses and box springs for Berlin Residents. Effective March 4, 2019, Residents will be offered two options for the disposal of these items, which are as follows:
- Curbside collections will be assessed a $15.00 charge (check or cash) per mattress and/or box spring. Payment will be made prior to collection in Room 120 of the Berlin Town Hall. Following payment, Public Works Staff will notify Trash Away of the address and quantity of mattresses to be collected. Residents will also be given a yellow collection permit sticker for each mattress and/or box spring to be attached for visual inspection by Trash Away.
- Public Works has contracted with Bye/Bye Mattress and the Mattress Recycling Council to provide for the disposal of mattresses and box springs at the Town Transfer Station located at 19 Town Farm Lane. Residents will be responsible for the transport, and proper placement, of the mattresses and/or box springs at this location during normal business hours. There will be no charge for disposal at the Transfer Station.
Residents should be instructed to call The Public Works Department at 860-828-7022 for additional information.
