Adams Circle Convenience Center — one large bulk item a month
Newton County residents holding a current vehicle hang tag, $185 for the year to June 30, 2027, one per household. A tag is issued only after an application, a driver's license and proof of residency — a current property tax bill, utility bill, mortgage statement or lease. Attendants check tags at the gate and may ask for the license as well. Residential use only; commercial businesses must use the landfill instead.
Conditions and source
2010 Adams Circle, Covington, GA 30014, 770-784-2166. Closed Sunday and Monday; open Tuesday through Friday noon to 7 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. The mattress rule is a monthly allowance, not an unlimited one: "Once a month, a Large Bulk Item (i.e. mattress, box spring, sofa, or chair) may be dropped off after the attendant completes paperwork noting the Users Hang Tag information." A mattress and a box spring are two items, so on this wording they are two months' allowance. Residents may also bring up to ten 32-gallon bags of trash a week and bulk items that fit inside a pickup bed without standing above it; trailers no larger than 5x6 with waste no more than two feet high. Anything bigger must go to the landfill, which does not take the hang tag. Refused: paint, batteries, oil, large tree debris, commercial waste, tires, animal carcasses and hazardous chemicals.
Not confirmed: No separate charge for the monthly bulk item is published, so it appears to be covered by the $185 tag, but the county does not say so in as many words.
Not confirmed: The county does not say what becomes of a bulk item left at a center.

Newton County Landfill — household self-haul including mattresses
Newton County residents only, with identification checked at the scale: "The landfill is for the use of Newton County residents only. Residents must show valid ID, Driver's License, property tax bill, mortgage statement, or current utility bill matching their form of ID and showing their Newton County address." Commercial users are accepted with documentation showing the load originated in the county, and "Out of county waste is prohibited from disposal at the Newton County Landfill by county ordinance." The convenience center hang tag is not accepted here and is not needed here.
Conditions and source
205 Lower River Road, Covington, GA 30016, 770-786-5808. Open Monday through Saturday 8 a.m. to 4:15 p.m., with the last load taken at 4:15 p.m.; closed on most county holidays, with a published closure list. Mattresses are named in the accepted items — "We accept normal household trash, furniture (including mattresses bedroom sets, tables, and couches), old appliances, cardboard, and metal" — alongside construction and remodelling materials, yard trimmings cut to 6 feet or less, boats and jet skis. Charging is by weight with a $30 minimum per vehicle per visit covering the first 900 pounds and $66 per ton beyond it, so a single mattress falls inside the minimum. Payment is cash, check or debit/credit card, with Apple Pay, Wallet and Tap to Pay accepted and a 3.5% card fee. All loads must stay covered until the dumping area. Refused are CRT monitors and televisions, light bulbs, batteries, motor oil and other automotive fluids, cooking oil, hazardous chemicals, propane and helium tanks, and tires on rims. Household electronics and paint are taken on the first Saturday of each month, 8 a.m. to noon.
Not confirmed: The landfill page contradicts itself on the weight formula: its Current News box gives $30 for the first 900 pounds and $66 per ton thereafter as of July 1, 2026, while a Fees paragraph lower down still reads $30 for the first 980 pounds and $62 per ton as of July 1, 2025. Both agree on the $30 minimum, which is what a single mattress attracts.
Not confirmed: No separate per-mattress price is published, so a household bringing several pays the same $30 minimum until the load passes the weight threshold.

Keep Walton Beautiful & Recycling Center — mattress and box spring drop-off
Open with no published residency test. The only restriction printed beside the price is on trade users: "Mattresses and Box Springs ($10 each. No dealers or manufacturers. Limit 2 per customer)". The county encourages "each and every Walton County citizen" to visit, but sets no identification requirement, no permit and no proof-of-address rule anywhere on either page.
Conditions and source
2051 Leroy Anderson Road SE, Monroe, GA 30655, 770-267-1421. Open Monday through Friday 7:30 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., closed on legal holidays and on the Board of Commissioners' holiday schedule. The price is $10 per mattress or box spring, a maximum of two per customer per visit, so a mattress-and-box-spring set costs $20 in one trip. Staff do not routinely help unload: "We do not assist in unloading large items unless we have adequate staff. We advise you to call 770-267-1421 before coming to our facility if you think you will need assistance." Most of the center's intake — aluminum, glass, car batteries, cardboard, paper, plastics 1 and 2, metal and appliances, cooking oil, motor oil, cell phones, computers — is free; mattresses, dishwashers and microwaves are the charged items, and general household trash is $65 per ton paid by the pound. Yard debris and hazardous waste are refused.
Not confirmed: The county never says whether a mattress left here is recycled, broken down or landfilled. The site is called a recycling center and charges for bedding while taking most recyclables free, which points in no particular direction, so the outcome is recorded as unknown.
Not confirmed: Whether the six rural convenience centers also take mattresses, and at what price, is not published; only the Leroy Anderson Road site names them.

What Social Circle itself says
What we established about this city in particular — including where it runs nothing of its own and residents have to look elsewhere.
- Social Circle has stopped collecting bulk waste, and says so in its own words. The city's trash and recycling page states plainly: 'The City no longer picks up bulk waste like old furniture.' What remains is cart collection through a contractor: 'The City of Social Circle contracts with Waste Management for trash service', with 'Garbage pickup... Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, depending on the street address' and recycling on Thursdays. Placement is specified: 'All trash must be bagged and the bin must be placed properly to avoid trash being strewn. Proper can placement is 3 feet from another object or bin, with the wheels and handle facing away from the road, on the side facing the home.' On charges the page gives only the extras: 'Extra bins cost $21.45 per bin per month. Senior citizens can apply for a discount on trash rates which amounts to $19.34 per month per bin.' New or swapped bins are arranged by emailing the billing clerk with name, address and phone number. Recycling is limited to listed paper, card, cans and plastic bottles that fit inside the bin, and 'Glass bottles are NOT accepted.' Having withdrawn its own bulk collection, the city instead names three sites by address: one that refuses mattresses outright, and two that charge for them. Source Not confirmed: The city does not say when bulk collection ended, and publishes no base residential trash rate - only the extra-bin and senior per-bin figures. Not confirmed: No city ordinance, set-out time of day or dumping penalty is published on the page.
- Not an option: The transfer station Social Circle sends its residents to for bulk waste refuses mattresses by name. The city's trash and recycling page, having said the city no longer collects bulk waste, instructs: 'Please take bulk waste - except for mattresses and box springs - to the Monroe Transfer Station at 213 Cherry Hill Road. Customers must unload items by themselves. Tires, paint, yard debris and construction/demo materials are not accepted. The cost is 2-3 cents per pound.' The exception is stated as part of the instruction itself, which is why the city goes on to name separate sites for mattresses and box springs: a Social Circle resident who loads a mattress for Monroe Transfer Station has made a wasted trip. Source Not confirmed: The city gives no hours, telephone number or operator for the Monroe Transfer Station, and no residency rule. Not confirmed: The 'cost is 2-3 cents per pound' is given as a range rather than a rate, and the city does not say who sets it.
What Walton County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Social Circle and its neighbors.
- Walton County collects nothing at the curb. Its Public Works Sanitation division runs six convenience centers, each sited at a rural fire station and open Monday, Tuesday and Thursday through Saturday 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., closed Wednesday and Sunday: Bold Springs, 4185 Bold Springs Road; Good Hope, 2077 Nunnally Shoals Road; Gratis, 2126 Mount Vernon Road Northwest; Jersey, 1645 Jersey Social Circle Road; Whatley, 2620 Whitney Road Southeast; and Youth, 1764 GA Highway 81. The county's Recycling Centers page describes what they take: "We have Convenience Centers placed around the county that will accept most recyclable materials that our main recycling center collects at NO CHARGE to you. (However, Convenience Centers do not accept motor oil, car batteries, and metal appliances)." For anything else the county points residents at private haulers, whose list it publishes without endorsement. So a Walton County reader outside Monroe, Loganville, Social Circle, Walnut Grove or Between has a private hauler for weekly trash and the Leroy Anderson Road recycling center for a mattress; the county itself picks up nothing. Source Not confirmed: The convenience center page lists no accepted-item schedule of its own, and the Recycling Centers page defines their scope only as "most recyclable materials" less oil, batteries and metal appliances. Whether a mattress may be left at a convenience center — and if so at what price, given the main center charges $10 — is not published anywhere on the county site.
- Not an option: Checked on 2026-09-29 for Walton County coverage. The Furniture Bank of Metro Atlanta takes mattresses and box springs "in any condition" but confines itself to a named four-county pickup area: "The Furniture Bank's pickup area includes most of Cobb, Gwinnett, Fulton and DeKalb counties." Walton County is not one of them, and the charity offers no drop-off, only standard and priority collection. Walton's own pages name no donation outlet that will take bedding either. Source

What to check before you go
- 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.
