2City curbside pickup in Keyport
Keyport’s own collection service takes the mattress from outside your home. You normally have to book a date in advance and follow their wrapping rules.
Keyport Borough bulk item collection (mattresses and box springs named in the code; at least one bulk item a month, no schedule published)
Every property in Keyport. Code subsection 16-5.8 provides that "Each residential property within the Borough shall be permitted to dispose of bulk items in accordance with a bulk collection schedule promulgated by the Mayor and Council" and the same for commercial and mixed use property. Subsection 16-5.2 defines bulk items to include "mattresses, box springs" by name, alongside furniture, plumbing fixtures, rugs and carpets, lamps, upholstered couches and chairs and other household objects, excluding covered electronic devices and anything barred from disposal as solid waste. Apartments, condominiums and townhouses place bulk items "in a central location".
Conditions and source
No charge is set for bulk collection anywhere in the chapter. The borough's commitment is "The Mayor and Council shall provide for the collection of at least one bulk item per month from each property. The Mayor and Council may further fix additional bulk pickups for residents under such terms as shall be deemed appropriate." The schedule itself is left to the Mayor and Council to promulgate and the borough publishes none, so the dates are not established. Timing when a date is set: "Bulk items shall not be placed for collection prior to 4:00 p.m. of the day prior to the scheduled collection." Putting one out early carries a duty to retrieve it - "Any owner, lessee, occupant or resident who improperly places a bulk item or items on a date not scheduled for bulk pickup, shall within 24 hours remove the bulk item or items from the curbline to the proper storage area on their property until the regularly scheduled bulk pickup" - and failure to do so "will result in a violation of the within section and penalties in accordance with the provisions of this Chapter". Violations are "subject to any penalty set forth in Section 1-5 of the Revised General Ordinances", each incident a separate violation. Garbage and recycling containers separately "cannot exceed 50 gallons in size nor 50 lbs. in weight when loaded". The borough's recycling coordinator is at 732-739-5136.
Not confirmed: The bulk collection schedule the code requires is not published anywhere by the borough, so the dates a resident may put a mattress out are not established.
Not confirmed: No charge is set for bulk collection, so the cost of a mattress pickup is not established.
Not confirmed: The code sets no wrapping or bagging requirement, and the penalty amount in Section 1-5 of the Revised General Ordinances was not read.

What Keyport itself says
What we established about this city in particular — including where it runs nothing of its own and residents have to look elsewhere.
- Keyport Borough's published collection information covers garbage and recycling only and carries no bulk schedule, which is the schedule its own code requires the Mayor and Council to promulgate. The borough's Recycling & Solid Waste page gives the 2026 arrangement by zone - "Zone 1: Your curbside collection of non-recyclable solid waste is MONDAY", Zone 2 Tuesday, Zone 3 Thursday and Zone 4 Friday - and caps containers: "All garbage and recycling containers placed to the curb for pick up cannot exceed 50 gallons in size nor 50 lbs. in weight when loaded." Can counts are limited to three per household for single family homes, six for multifamily properties and four for commercial establishments, while "There is no limit on the number of cans for curbside recycling" subject to the same size and weight limits. The borough's Recycling Center is residents-only and narrowly open: "The Recycling Center is OPEN for Keyport residents Saturdays 9:00 AM to 12:00 Noon for drop-off of recyclables and pick-up of leaf bags." The borough's recycling coordinator is reachable at 732-739-5136. Nothing on the page names a bulk item, a bulk collection date or a mattress. Source Not confirmed: The borough publishes no bulk collection schedule and no bulk item rule on its own solid waste page, although its code provides for at least one bulk item per month. Not confirmed: The Recycling Center is described as taking recyclables and leaf bags only; no street address and no bedding policy are published for it, so it cannot be given as a drop-off for a mattress.
