Larimer County Central Transfer Station mattress recycling drop-off (2026 fee schedule)
The 2026 fee schedule states no residency requirement and no commercial exclusion for the per-item mattress rate; the flat entry fee is set by vehicle type, cars, SUVs and passenger vans on one rate and pickup trucks and cargo vans on another.
Conditions and source
Central Diversion & Transfer Station at 2388 W Trilby Rd, Fort Collins, open Monday–Saturday 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Mattresses and box springs of every size are taken for recycling when dry and bedbug-free; the county's gatehouse sheet rejects bed bug infested, wet, frozen and mouldy mattresses and hospital beds, and warns that on mud-restriction or rainy days mattresses go straight to the landfill working face. Loads must be covered and customers unload themselves, and unsecured or uncovered loads are charged double. Mattresses are recycled by Spring Back Colorado in Commerce City. Supersedes larimer-mattress-dropoff-v1, which left the base load fee and the rejection rules unresolved.
- Plus $20 — Flat entry fee for cars, SUVs and passenger vans, $20.00 each with the Colorado surcharge included, charged in addition to the per-mattress fee. Unsecured or uncovered loads are subject to double fee.
- Plus $37 — Flat entry fee for pickup trucks and cargo vans without vertical side planks above the cab, $37.00 each with the Colorado surcharge included, charged in addition to the per-mattress fee. Unsecured or uncovered loads are subject to double fee.
- Plus $40 — $40.00 each for mattresses and box springs at the North and South Landfills and the Central Transfer Station, with no Colorado surcharge, under the 2026 approved fee schedule updated 2/4/2026.
Not confirmed: The county does not state whether commercial customers may use the per-item mattress rate, nor whether the flat vehicle fee is waived for a mattress-only load.
Not confirmed: The gatehouse sheet describing the rejection list is dated 2023 and predates the move from the Larimer County Landfill to the Central Transfer Station.
