Village of Nashville Transfer Station furniture and mattress drop-off
Barry County's guide prints no residency rule for this station, in either its "Furniture & Matresses" section or its drop-off center listing - unlike the Orangeville Township site on the same page, which it marks "*Orangeville Township residents ONLY". Questions go to 517-852-9571 or to the village's own transfer station information page.
Conditions and source
The Barry County Recycling & Disposal Guide, published by the Barry County Materials Management Planning Committee and stamped "Updated April 2025", lists the "Village of Nashville Transfer Station" at 300 E Casgrove Street, Nashville under the heading "Furniture & Matresses". The guide publishes no hours, no price and no further accepted-items detail, and points readers to 517-852-9571 and nashvillemi.us.
Not confirmed: The guide publishes no fee for a mattress or a box spring at this station, so the cost of a trip is not established. An unpublished fee is not a free one.
Not confirmed: No hours are published in the county's guide.
Not confirmed: No residency rule is published, so whether a resident of Hastings or of another part of Barry County may use the station is unknown.
Not confirmed: The guide does not say whether a mattress taken here is recycled or landfilled.
Not confirmed: The station is run by the Village of Nashville, not by Barry County, and the village's own transfer station page was not read.
Not confirmed: The guide gives no ZIP code for the Casgrove Street address.

What Eaton County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Charlotte and its neighbors.
- Eaton County, MICHIGAN has a waste department, the Eaton County Department of Resource Recovery at 1045 Independence Boulevard, Charlotte, MI 48813, 517-543-3686, open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. - and that department runs recycling, not disposal. Its own page describes the department as "a resource for Eaton County residents, municipalities and businesses", names the Sunfield Recycling Center and a Mobile Recycling Program trailer that serves rural parts of the county, and breaks its advice out by material into batteries, cooking oil, electronics, household hazardous waste, medications and sharps, paint and tires. There is no landfill, no transfer station and no citizen convenience center owned by the county, no gate fee of any kind is published, and no page names a mattress, a box spring or bedding. Recycling in the county is funded by a surcharge on residents' waste hauling bills rather than by gate fees. This is Charlotte, Michigan, the Eaton County seat, on eatoncounty.org - not Charlotte, North Carolina. Source Not confirmed: The county owns no disposal facility, so no county drop-off, fee or eligibility rule for a mattress exists in Eaton County to record. Not confirmed: The county publishes no list of landfills or transfer stations and does not say where a resident of Charlotte, Grand Ledge or Eaton Rapids should take refuse. Not confirmed: The county's recycling pages do not publish site addresses or hours for the Sunfield Recycling Center or the mobile trailer's stops.
- Eaton County, MICHIGAN runs no trash collection, no bulky-item collection and no mattress collection. The nearest thing the county brings to a resident's own town is the Eaton County Mobile Recycling Program, a trailer the Department of Resource Recovery takes to rural communities, and its own flyer sets out exactly what it takes: the kickoff event at 121 Eastside Drive, Vermontville, MI 49096 on August 01, 2024, 1 PM to 4 PM, was advertised as "Free and open to all Eaton County residents! Accepting plastic, cardboard, glass, paper, batteries, and metals", with "Items must be presorted by material." Equipment funding came from the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy. No mattress, box spring, bedding or bulky item appears on it. The county's wider program is the same shape: recycling events for electronics, tires and household hazardous waste, none of which is a mattress answer. Collection in Eaton County is a city, township or private hauler matter, and the county's own involvement is a $0.60 per month recycling surcharge on hauling bills. Source Not confirmed: The flyer is for the program's first event in 2024, and the county publishes no current schedule of mobile recycling stops. Not confirmed: The county does not list which of its cities and townships run a bulky-item collection, so nothing is established about Charlotte, Grand Ledge, Eaton Rapids, Potterville or Olivet.

- 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.
