What Santa Fe County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Santa Fe and its neighbors.
- Santa Fe County's Solid Waste & Recycling Division runs seven convenience centers and transfer stations — Eldorado, Jacona, La Cienega, Nambe, San Marcos, Stanley and Tesuque — most open Tuesday-Saturday. 'Customers must be residents of Santa Fe County.' All loads must be covered, trash bagged and recyclables secured, and children and pets must stay in the vehicle. Commonly accepted materials are residential trash, recycling, green waste, appliances, scrap metal, automotive fluids and ashes; a separate Solid Waste Permit is required. Source Not confirmed: The convenience-center page does not list mattresses or bulky items among accepted materials, and publishes no permit price or per-item fee.
- Santa Fe County's trash and recycling pages describe convenience-center drop-off only; no county bulky-item collection program is published for unincorporated residents. Source Not confirmed: Not published: no county bulky-item collection.
New Mexico mattress disposal rules
- 2026 notice states standard loads: city-limit residents/businesses $5 plus tax, outside-city residents/businesses $12. Unsecured-load dumping is separately listed at $10.54 inside and $24 outside. General drop-off page instead states $5 plus tax broadly and $5.82 additional untarped fee including tax. Source
- 2026 rules specify no more than three mattresses per load; general drop-off page says per customer. Trailer limits are described as trailer length in this notice versus combined length on general page (40 feet Montessa, 30 Don Reservoir, 35 Eagle Rock). Source
- Current county page places Sandoval Landfill at 2708 Iris Rd NE. September 2022 NMED directory instead places 2700 Iris in its physical-location text and 2708 Iris in mailing-address text. Preserve this receiving-address discrepancy rather than moving the historical mailing address into a receiving field. Source
- NMED points residents to the New Mexico Recycling Coalition directory (recyclenewmexico.com/directory/) and says programs vary by community; contact local municipal, county, solid waste authority, or tribal program. No statewide mattress stewardship program or landfill ban found on NMED pages as of 2026-09-22. Source
