2City curbside pickup in Secaucus
Secaucus’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.
Town of Secaucus mattress recycling collection (Wednesdays, by appointment)
Secaucus residents. The Department of Public Works describes the large-item route as being for 'residents wishing to dispose of large items' and publishes no building-size or unit-count cutoff, no apartment exclusion and no private-hauler exclusion for the mattress program.
Conditions and source
A dedicated mattress route with its own weekly day: the Town's flyer is headed 'Mattress Recycling' and 'Collection on Wednesday'. The Town asks residents to try the retailer first — 'Ask your new mattress retailer to take your old mattress. Many retailers offer free haul-away when you buy a new mattress' — and otherwise: 'If not, CALL the DPW to schedule collection.' The bagging requirement is stricter than loose plastic wrapping and is printed in capitals: 'Mattress MUST be sealed in a waterproof mattress protector bag,' which is 'Available for purchase at your local or online retailer,' so the resident buys the bag. Book ahead at (201) 330-2080 — 'Call the DPW at (201) 330-2080 to schedule ahead of time!' The Department of Public Works is at 370 Secaucus Road and is open Monday through Friday, 6:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Other large items go on the general appointment route, where 'residents must call (201) 330-2080 for an appointment' and 'No contractor material accepted.'
Not confirmed: No fee is published for the mattress collection and no Town page calls it free, so no price is established.
Not confirmed: No limit is published on the number of mattresses per household or per appointment.
Not confirmed: No notice period is published beyond scheduling 'ahead of time', and no set-out time is given.
Not confirmed: The Town heads the program 'Mattress Recycling' but does not name the recycler or describe what is done with the mattress.
Not confirmed: The Secaucus code contains no mattress section, so the sealed-bag rule is a departmental requirement rather than an ordinance and carries no published penalty.
