• Stayton is the rare case where the whole rate schedule is public and can be checked line by line - and it contains no bulky-item entry. Resolution No. 1075, adopted by the Stayton City Council on November 6, 2023 under Stayton Municipal Code 4.08.020(1)(b) and 4.08.030, sets the rates of "United Disposal Services (dba Republic Services of Marion County)", the franchisee under Council Resolution No. 655, effective January 1, 2024. The attached City of Stayton rate sheet gives residential monthly rates of $29.28 (20 gallon), $26.51 (20 gallon trash only), $34.43 (35 gallon), $46.87 (65 gallon) and $52.52 (90 gallon), multifamily rates for four or more adjoining units under one billing from $24.87, and an Ancillary Rates block: 2nd yard cart $14.82, 2nd recycling cart $22.61, medical waste $17.96 per delivery, cart replacement $94.25, glass bin replacement $7.54, "Extra Can/Bag/Box (CBB)" $7.54, contaminated recycling or yard debris cart $12.57, return trip $25.13 and cart change or switch after one free change a year $18.81. Residential temporary 3 yard container service is priced at $161.96 delivery, $111.69 extra lift, $6.28 daily rent from the eighth day. Nothing in the schedule covers a mattress, a sofa, a large item or an on-call item pickup. Section 2 also lets Republic raise rates annually by CPI from January 1, 2025 without further council authorization, provided the rise is no more than CPI-U, happens at most once a year and is notified to the city manager sixty days ahead. Source Not confirmed: The council-adopted Stayton schedule contains no bulky-item, large-item or mattress rate, so what Republic charges a Stayton household for one is unpublished. Not confirmed: Because Resolution 1075 allows annual CPI increases without a new resolution, the rates actually in force in 2026 are higher than the figures published here by an amount the city does not publish.
• The previous Stayton schedule confirms the gap is long-standing rather than an omission in one year's paperwork. Resolution No. 1030, adopted August 16, 2021 and effective September 1, 2021, set rates for the same franchisee under Stayton Municipal Code 4.08.020(1)(b). Its residential page ("STAYTON RATE SHEET AREA-4") lists 20 gallon $24.81, 35 gallon $29.18, 65 gallon $39.72 and 90 gallon $44.51, with a pink block of extras: "Return fee: $21.30; On-call pick-up: $10.65; Sharps: $15.22; Recycle only: $9.58; Extra Can/Bag/Box: $6.01; Premium drive-in service (per cart): N/A; Request to change or switch container: $15.94 (after allowed one change @ n/c); RC or Yard cart contamination fee: $10.65/cart; Senior discount upon approval: N/A." The only "on-call" line is a $10.65 cart pickup priced alongside the other cart charges, not an item collection, and no furniture or mattress rate appears anywhere on the sheet. Pick-up runs Monday through Friday, with trash and a 65 yard debris cart weekly and a 90 gallon commingle recycling cart every other week. Source Not confirmed: The 2021 'On-call pick-up: $10.65' line is not defined on the rate sheet, so whether it could ever cover an item set beside the cart rather than an extra cart lift is unestablished - and it has in any case been superseded by Resolution 1075.
• Republic Services' Stayton, Oregon location page says it will take a mattress - "Need to remove an old mattress or refrigerator? Let us do the heavy lifting with a bulk trash pickup" - and it is the identical sentence Republic publishes on its Dallas and Silverton Oregon pages, so it carries no Stayton-specific term. The page gives no price, no allowance, no notice period, no item limit and no address, only a service area of "Stayton and the nearby area". Read against Stayton's own council-adopted rate schedule, which sets every other charge Republic may make in the city to the cent and contains no bulky line at all, the position for a Stayton household is that a curbside mattress pickup exists but its price is set nowhere public. Source Not confirmed: Republic publishes no price or booking terms for a Stayton bulky pickup, and the mattress wording is shared boilerplate across its Oregon location pages. Not confirmed: Stayton publishes no city clean-up or bulky waste event; the only city-run seasonal collection found is a leaf clean-up, whose terms were not read.

• SVdP shared policy allows fewer than ten mattresses at listed stores, but MRC locator gives Cottage Grove a five-unit maximum, sends Seneca loads over five to Prairie Road, and lists Florence/Albany/Salem limits of ten residential or 25 business units. Facility-specific quantity applicability conflicts with the shared page. Source
