Cheapest
Henry County Exempt Transfer Facility mattress drop-off
No residency rule and no ID requirement is published for municipal waste. The district's brochure describes the facility as "Here to serve the businesses and residents of Henry County as part of the Henry County Solid Waste Program.", and its general public tire rate is offered "including Out of County", but nothing states whether a household from outside Henry County may bring a mattress.
Conditions and source
The county's rate list carries the line "$12 mattress/freon", and the district's brochure prices the item as "Mattress: $12.00/each". The brochure puts it on a list introduced as "The following items are accepted at municipal waste rate (some additional fees may apply) but must be unloaded at designated area or container for recycling purposes. Notify scale operator of any of the following items at time of check in:", so the scale operator must be told about a mattress on arrival and it is unloaded where the facility directs rather than with the household trash. Municipal waste is otherwise "$120.00/Ton up to 1500 lbs - Prorated" and "$144.00/Ton – over 1501 lbs - Prorated" with a "$15.00 Minimum – up to 200 pounds". A "$10.00 'NO TARP' FEE" applies because the landfill and the State of Ohio require every load to be covered securely, and a "$30.00 Clean-Up/Out Fee" applies to debris left on the apron. Open Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 3:30 pm, and the first and third Saturdays, 8:00 am to 11:00 am, closed Sundays and legal holidays. Phone 419-256-7343. Payment is by cash, check or debit and credit cards, cards "subject to $2.00 or 3.15% fee, whichever is greater".
- $12 — Each mattress, as printed on the county's rate list for the Exempt Transfer Facility, "$12 mattress/freon", and in the district's brochure as "Mattress: $12.00/each".
- $15 — Municipal waste minimum charge, "$15.00 Minimum – up to 200 pounds", printed on the same rate list as the mattress charge. The county does not say whether this minimum applies in addition to the $12.00 per mattress or instead of it.
Not confirmed: The brochure says the listed items "must be unloaded at designated area or container for recycling purposes" without saying what happens to a mattress in particular, so whether it is recycled or buried is not established.
Not confirmed: The county does not say whether the $12.00 mattress charge stands alone or is added to the $15.00 municipal waste minimum for up to 200 pounds.
Not confirmed: No residency requirement is published, so whether a household from outside Henry County may use the facility is unknown.

What Henry County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Napoleon and its neighbors.
- Henry County, Ohio runs no bulky item collection and no county curbside pickup, so no county program collects a mattress from a household anywhere in the county. The Solid Waste District's pages carry the transfer facility, litter prevention and recycling, the household hazardous waste and electronics collections, a glass proposal and the 2020 to 2034 and draft 2027 solid waste plans — no large item collection among them, and no eligibility rule, allowance or fee to record. For yard waste the county tells residents to check with their local community, and for a mattress the county's answer is the Henry County Exempt Transfer Facility at $12.00 each rather than a collection. Whatever route a Henry County household has at the curb is set by its own city, village or township, and Napoleon's own arrangements belong on that city's page rather than here. Source Not confirmed: Whether the City of Napoleon runs a bulky item collection was not established at the county level and is left to the city pass.
Ohio mattress disposal rules
- Primary names Harvard Avenue Transfer Station at 3227 Harvard Ave, Newburgh Heights OH 44105; district calls it Harvard Road at 3227 Harvard Road. Same number, city and operator support an identity candidate, but street suffix discrepancy retained. Source
- Hamilton municipal FAQ says transfer-station large-item intake Monday–Saturday. Existing Rumpke operator-locator staging record 07c7c0690194a830d775d57e lists Monday–Friday 8am–3:45pm at the same 1000 N Third Street address and phone 513-867-8661. This is an hours discrepancy, not grounds to merge unrelated branches. Source
- Ohio EPA Solid Waste Management District Locator (GIS app): select a county to see its Solid Waste Management District; the underlying layer covers all 88 counties. SWMDs are the local contact for recycling and disposal. Source
- Ohio EPA's "Where to Recycle" page names the three statewide tools it offers residents: the Ohio EPA Recycling Directory (a searchable directory of service providers who volunteered to be listed), the solid waste management district locator map, and the Ohio Materials Marketplace for businesses. It states that recycling and litter prevention activities are controlled locally through the county's solid waste management district, which "can help with information such as ... where to take hard to recycle items". Note the agency site now serves these pages under the /wps/portal/gov/epa/ path; the bare /divisions-and-offices/... URLs 404 when requested directly. Source
- The Ohio EPA Recycling Directory is hosted on RecycleSearch (Re-TRAC) and is searchable by free text or by pre-set material categories after setting a location. Its own text says results may include curbside recycling programs, drop-off recycling locations, reuse stores and other service providers, and that listing is not an endorsement. Its FAQ states the directory "is in the process of being populated" and that some areas of the state may have no information available, directing residents to their local solid waste management district instead. Listings are managed by Ohio EPA and the districts. Source
- No statewide mattress stewardship program or landfill ban found on Ohio EPA pages as of 2026-09-22; mattress disposal is handled by local governments and county solid waste management districts. The agency's own site search for "mattress" returns only 4 resources, none of them mattress-related (Revised Total Coliform Rule, Underground Injection Control, operator exam information and a Trauma Scene Clean-Up fact sheet). The Materials and Waste Management division pages cover solid waste, infectious waste, scrap tires and C&DD, with no mattress or bulky-item program. Source
- Mattress Recycling Council's Program States page names exactly four program states — California, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Oregon. Ohio is not among them, confirming there is no MRC-run mattress stewardship program or Bye Bye Mattress free drop-off network in Ohio. Source

What to check before you go
- Say if the mattress is wet, stained, or has any sign of pests — that is the usual reason one is turned away.
- 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.
