2City curbside pickup in Archbald
Archbald’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.
Archbald Borough bulk item collection (two items per week, mattress wrapped in plastic, no fee published)
Households on the borough's municipal waste contract. Businesses are excluded: they "are excluded from the Borough's municipal waste contract and must contract separately with a hauler for their waste removal needs."
Conditions and source
A standing weekly allowance rather than a booked run: "You may put out two items per week per household. Bulk items include things like sofas, water heaters, stoves, washers, dryers, etc." A mattress and a box spring count as two separate items, so a set uses the whole allowance. Wrapping is required in the borough's own capitals: "Mattresses and box springs MUST be wrapped in plastic when put to curb." Ordinary trash is separately capped — "There is a six can/bag limit per unit" with a 50 pound limit per container — and residents should "have trash out the night before the pick up day in an area clearly visible to collections". Collection runs Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays by section, with a holiday pushing the rest of that week one day late. Refused on normal collection: "ashes, cardboard, Freon-containing appliances, car parts, batteries, tires, electronics and construction materials". A Freon appliance needs a separate booking and is the one item the borough prices — call the Borough Office at 876-1800 "to arrange a special pick up ($35 charge)". No fee is published for a bulk item and the borough nowhere says one is free, included or collected at no extra charge.
Not confirmed: No fee is published for a bulk item and the borough does not state that the two-per-week allowance is free, included or at no extra charge — it prices a Freon appliance at $35 and leaves the bulk item unpriced
Not confirmed: No fee or procedure is published for a third bulk item in a week
Not confirmed: What a resident pays for refuse collection in Archbald is not published
Not confirmed: Where a mattress is taken after collection is not stated

What Lackawanna County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Archbald and its neighbors.
- Lackawanna County's own "HARD TO RECYCLE OR PROPERLY DISPOSE LIST" has a MATTRESSES heading whose only entries are "AP Container, Inc. 570.209.8600" and "Varies junk removal companies" - both private. The county names no county-run landfill, transfer station or drop-off that takes mattresses. The county's Lackawanna Recycling Center handles recyclables; self-haul disposal in the county is at privately run transfer stations. Source Not confirmed: No county facility or fee for mattresses is published; the county's list gives a private contractor only.
- Lackawanna County runs no county-wide bulky-item or mattress collection. Its hard-to-recycle list sends residents to a private contractor (AP Container, Inc.) or to junk removal companies for mattresses, with fees varying by volume; curbside bulk collection is a matter for each borough, township or city and its hauler.
