2City curbside pickup in Rittman
Rittman’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.
City of Rittman contracted trash service (Kimble) - one bulk item a week, mattress wrapped
Rittman households on the city's contracted trash service. "The Utilities Department serves as the City's point of contact for their contracted trash service. Kimble Companies is our current contractor." Kimble provides each residence with trash and recycling carts "barcoded to each specific address", and "Refuse will appear as a line item on your monthly utilities invoice from the City of Rittman", so the service is billed by the city rather than by the hauler. A missed collection is reported by calling 330-925-2059.
Conditions and source
A mattress is expected and needs no appointment: "Kimble will collect ONE bulk item per week. No need to contact them directly." Collection is weekly, every Tuesday, for both trash and recycling. The wrapping rule names bedding directly: "Furniture with cushions or bedding (mattress, box springs, sofa) need to be completely wrapped in plastic, taped shut." A weight limit applies to every item: "Any one object should weigh NO MORE than 50 pounds" - worth checking against the item, since a mattress runs 50 to 100 pounds and a queen or king will sit at or above that limit. The dark green 95-gallon trash tote holds about five kitchen bags and "An additional 10 bags of trash may be placed beside the trash tote for collection each week"; all trash must be bagged rather than loose, and recycling in the bright green tote must not be bagged. "NO construction materials outside of the tote will be collected. (Drywall, wood, etc.)" Large items with glass must be secured with tape. Totes go on the tree lawn near the curb, lid opening toward the street, three feet apart. The city publishes no separate charge for the weekly bulk item and does not describe it as free; the only figure it refers to is the refuse line on the monthly utilities invoice, which it does not state.
Not confirmed: The city does not state the monthly refuse amount on the utilities invoice and publishes no separate bulk item charge, and does not call the weekly bulk collection free, so no price has been recorded.
Not confirmed: The city does not say whether a mattress and its box springs count as one bulk item or two against the one-per-week allowance.
Not confirmed: The fifty-pound per-object limit is not reconciled with bedding the city expects to be set out, and the city does not say whether a heavier mattress is refused or taken.

What Wayne County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Rittman and its neighbors.
- Wayne County has no landfill, transfer station or convenience center of its own, and its district's directory shows it plainly. Wayne County's own site gives The Recycling District - Stark, Tuscarawas & Wayne Counties (P.O. Box 186, Bolivar, OH 44612, 800-678-9839) as the county's solid waste district, and that district's Disposal Locations directory lists exactly two sites under "Wayne County Disposal Locations": Compost - Paradise Composting, 6203 Akron Rd, Smithville, Ohio 44677, 330-669-3141; and Construction & Demolition Debris Landfill - Zollinger Sand & Gravel Co, 11687 Wadsworth Rd, Rittman, 44270, 330-855-2464. A compost drop-off and a construction and demolition debris landfill are neither of them published as taking a mattress. Every sanitary landfill and transfer station the district lists sits in another county: American Landfill Inc, 7916 Chapel St SE, Waynesburg, 44688, 330-866-3265; Republic Services Countywide Recycling & Disposal Facility, 3619 Gracemont Ave SW, East Sparta, 44626, 330-874-3855; Kimble Sanitary Landfill, 3596 State Rte 39 NW, Dover, 44622, 330-343-1226; Kimble Transfer & Recycling Facility - Canton, 2295 Bolivar Rd SW, Canton, 44706; and JMW Trucking Services Inc, 1800 Allen Ave SE, Canton, 44707, 330-484-2428. So a Rittman household has a county-level answer that is an out-of-county landfill, and no Wayne County facility publishes a mattress fee. Source Not confirmed: The district publishes no hours, gate fee or eligibility rule for any disposal location it lists, and says only "Check with the site to obtain days and hours of operation." Not confirmed: No page states whether Zollinger Sand & Gravel in Rittman will accept a household mattress with its construction and demolition debris, so that is unestablished rather than refused.
- The Recycling District answers the mattress question for Wayne County directly, and the answer is a landfill rather than any county service. Its residents' material guide says "Mattresses must be disposed of in a landfill", then "Contact your trash hauler for their requirements. If you do not have a hauler, contact Kimble at (330) 454-9400." The district collects nothing itself: for furniture it says usable items can be donated to organizations such as the Salvation Army, Goodwill or Habitat Restore, warns that "Furniture in any condition should not be dropped at any of our recycling drop offs. This is considered illegal dumping", and adds "Your waste hauler should be called to verify their bulk items pick up policy in the event you wish to throw the items away. Fees may apply." So there is no Wayne County bulky item collection, free allowance, voucher or clean-up day for a mattress, no county drop-off that takes one, and no district-published price - the fee belongs to whichever hauler or landfill the household uses. Source Not confirmed: The district names no price for mattress disposal and no site other than a hauler or the Kimble number, so no mattress fee is established for Wayne County. Not confirmed: The furniture warning covers the district's recycling drop-offs; it does not state a mattress rule for those sites in its own words.
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
