Pickens County Central Recycling Center mattress drop-off ($15.00 up to king)
No residency rule is published. The center states its reach as 'We are here to serve the Pickens County community and the North Georgia Region', and names no proof of residency, decal, sticker or permit.
Conditions and source
Open Tuesday through Saturday 8:00am to 5:00pm, closed on Sundays, Mondays and holidays; call 706-253-8871. The published fees read 'Crib mattress - $5.00', 'Mattress up to king - $15.00' and 'Boxspring (any size) - $15.00', so a mattress and its box spring come to $30.00. Bagged household trash is taken in the same trip at $1.00 per bag up to 33 gallons or $3.00 for larger bags, and recycling of cardboard, mixed paper, plastics number 1 and 2, aluminum, metal and glass is free. Pay the attendant and take a ticket as a receipt.
- $5 — 'Crib mattress - $5.00' on the same fee list.
- $15 — 'Mattress up to king - $15.00' on the fee list published by Pickens County Recycling, the official recycling website the county links to from its Recycling & Waste page.
- $15 — 'Boxspring (any size) - $15.00' on the same fee list, charged separately from the mattress.
Not confirmed: The mattress, box spring and recliner fees appear under a heading referring to the Pickens County Recycling Centers in the plural, while the electronics and shredding fees are expressly tied to the Appalachian Court site; whether the mattress charge applies at both locations is not separately stated.
Not confirmed: No effective date is published for the fee list.
Not confirmed: Whether the mattress is recycled or landfilled is not stated, despite the facility being called a recycling center.
Not confirmed: The county department page says bagged household trash is the only non-recyclable the center accepts, which the priced item list on the county's own official recycling website contradicts.

What Pickens County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Jasper and its neighbors.
- Pickens County, Georgia collects nothing at the curb: the county's Recycling & Waste department is two drop-off recycling centers and nothing more. The department's overview says 'The Pickens County Recycling Center provides residents with a convenient and environmentally responsible way to dispose of recyclables and household waste', that 'The Main Station is arranged to allow you to separate the recyclables into their respective bins as you drive through the facility', that 'All household trash must be packaged in securely fastened plastic bags. Bagged household trash is the only non-recyclable accepted by the center', and that 'Visitors pay the attendant for any bagged trash or appliances containing freon and receive a ticket as a receipt.' That bagged-trash-only sentence is not the whole picture, and a reader should not stop at it: the official recycling website that the same county page links to publishes a priced list of unbagged items the centers take, mattresses and box springs among them. No curbside garbage service, bulky item collection, large item program or special pickup is published anywhere in the department's pages. Source Not confirmed: The county department page and the official recycling website it links to disagree on whether bagged household trash is the only non-recyclable accepted; the recycling website's priced item list is the more specific and the more recent-looking of the two, but neither carries a date. Not confirmed: No county bulky item collection is published for Pickens County, and no page says the county does not run one. Not confirmed: Whether the City of Jasper runs its own bulky collection is a city-level question and was not researched here.

- Say if the mattress is wet, stained, or has any sign of pests — that is the usual reason one is turned away.
- Ask what the total will be. Box springs, stairs, and extra items are often charged separately.
- Check you qualify. Many sites serve only residents of their own city or county.
