Englewood Cliffs bulk garbage collection (set it out, then call the DPW)
Households in the Borough of Englewood Cliffs. Ordinary garbage is collected by a private hauler and split by Palisade Avenue — south of Palisade Avenue on Mondays and Thursdays, north of Palisade Avenue on Tuesdays and Fridays — but bulk is the Borough's own, on request rather than on a schedule.
Conditions and source
Bulk garbage "Should be placed at the curb and then call the DPW for pick up", with the call going to the Public Works Department at (201) 568-0242, office hours 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. The Borough's 2026 Recycling Calendar repeats the instruction as the catch-all for anything it does not schedule: "FOR ALL OTHER TRASH, CALL THE DPW AT 201-568-0242". Two categories are refused by name: do not leave hazardous waste or construction debris for DPW pickup. Mattresses are not named either way, and the Borough publishes no bulk collection day, no item cap, no notice period and no fee. Household garbage "must be curbside by 7:00 a.m. on collection day", and recyclables must be at the curb no later than 7:00 a.m. on the scheduled day. The calendar defines the halves as "NORTH: Palisade Avenue to Jane Drive" and "SOUTH: Fort Lee Border to Palisade Ave." The Borough's code sets no bulky waste collection rule: a search of it for "mattress" returns nothing, and "bulk" appears only in the zoning chapter's area and bulk requirements. Borough Hall is at 482 Hudson Terrace, Englewood Cliffs, NJ 07632. This is the Borough of Englewood Cliffs, a separate municipality from the City of Englewood beside it.
Not confirmed: Whether a mattress is accepted on a DPW call is not stated; only hazardous waste and construction debris are refused by name.
Not confirmed: No fee, item cap, notice period or collection day for bulk garbage is published.

What Bergen County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Englewood Cliffs and its neighbors.
- Not an option: Bergen County's county-level waste facility program is the BCUA's household hazardous waste collection, which is free to all county residents but takes no bulky items. "The BCUA operates a Household Hazardous Waste ('HHW') Management and Disposal Program for all Bergen County residents." "From residents, the BCUA will accept items such as paints, automotive products, pesticides, aerosols, flammable materials, etc. that are used around your home on a daily basis." "There is no charge for Bergen County residents to dispose of household hazardous waste material at this program." It is event-based, not a standing site: "Collections are held in Moonachie, Paramus and Mahwah." 2026 dates and locations are Bergen County Utilities Authority, 98 Empire Blvd., Moonachie (March 7 and November 14, 2026); Bergen County Campgaw Reservation, 200 Campgaw Rd., Mahwah (May 16, July 18 and September 19, 2026); and Bergen Community College, 400 Paramus Rd., Paramus (April 19, June 7 and October 18, 2026). "Residents must stay in their vehicles at all times." Mattresses, furniture and bulky waste are not part of the program. Source
- The Bergen County Utilities Authority handles "solid waste management services for all seventy Bergen County municipalities", but its published county-wide services stop short of bulky waste, and its own guide sends residents to their town DPW. The 2025 Recycling & Solid Waste Guide's contents are: "What is Recycling? / Hazardous Waste / Battery Recycling / HHW Events / Mobile Paper Shredding / Tire Recycling / Computers and Electronics / Paper Shredding, Tire, Computers and Electronics Recycling Events / What to Recycle / Recycle Right! / Recycle Coach / Dates to Remember / Backyard Composting / Solid Waste Education / 2025 Recycling Events / 2025 HHW Events / Municipal DPW Contacts / Challenge Grant Program / Board of Commissioners". The guide's own summary of the program range is "household hazardous waste collection, paper shredding, tire recycling, and electronics recycling events". Mattresses, box springs, furniture and bulky waste appear nowhere in the guide; the county's answer for them is the Municipal DPW contact list. BCUA also enforces solid waste flow control, publishing a list of Designated Disposal Facilities that licensed haulers must use — a hauler rule, not a resident drop-off. Source Not confirmed: The BCUA publishes no mattress or bulky-waste guidance, price or outlet Not confirmed: Bulky collection in Bergen County is municipal and was not researched at the county layer Not confirmed: No county-wide donation option for mattresses is named by the county or the authority

- 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.
