Duryea Borough bulk item collection (a mattress priced in stickers by size)
Residential units in Duryea Borough on the borough's own garbage collection, which is run by the Duryea Borough street department: its duties are 'garbage collection, recycling, yard waste, snow plowing, road patching, grass cutting, general maintenance, etc.' Every unit pays the annual fee — 'The annual fee is $125 per unit, which includes a pack of 52 stickers and MUST BE PAID TO DURYEA BOROUGH' — due April 30, 2026, with 'an additional $25 late fee per month after April 30th.' Luzerne County does not answer this question for its municipalities: its Recycling Office tells residents to 'Contact your municipal office and find out what the procedure is for disposal of a mattress.'
This year’s was on Apr 30, 2026 — it has already happened, and the town has not published next year’s date yet.
Conditions and source
A mattress goes out with the ordinary weekly trash, wrapped, carrying the right number of green stickers: 'LARGE BULK ITEMS WILL BE COLLECTED WITH THE WEEKLY GARBAGE COLLECTION. ALL ITEMS MUST HAVE THE APPROPRIATE NUMBER OF GREEN STICKERS ON THEM TO BE PICKED UP.' The 2026 Street Department Newsletter prices bedding by size: 'TWIN MATTRESS...3', 'TWIN BOX SPRING...3', 'FULL MATTRESS...4', 'FULL BOX SPRING...4', 'QUEEN/KING MATTRESS...5' and 'QUEEN/KING BOX SPRING...5' stickers, so a queen or king set takes ten. Wrapping is required outright: '*MATTRESSES MUST BE SEALED IN PLASTIC*'. Individual stickers cost '$2.75' at the Duryea Borough Building, 315 Main Street, and '$3.25' at US Gas, 828 Main Street and Uni Mart, 708 Main Street; the borough office sells them 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Items go out by '6:00A.M.' on collection day, and garbage is 'COLLECTED ONE DAY LATE ON HOLIDAY WEEKS'. Metal appliances are a separate booked route: 'CONTACT TYLER SZUMSKI AT 570-212-8937 TO SCHEDULE PICK UP: *CALL or TEXT*'. The street department is at 9 Foote Ave, (570) 655-1299, Monday through Friday 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.; the borough office is at (570) 655-2829.

What Luzerne County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Duryea and its neighbors.
- The Luzerne County Recycling Office's own FAQ answers 'How do I dispose of a mattress?' with: 'Contact your municipal office and find out what the procedure is for disposal of a mattress and if there is a fee.' The same FAQ states the county holds no tire collection ('No, there will be no tire collections'), and that the resident drop-off recycling containers previously hosted at local facilities were removed because of contamination, with 'no word on if they will be offered again'. So Luzerne County operates no county mattress drop-off, collection or voucher program. Source
- The Luzerne County Recycling Office's mission is 'To ensure the delivery of an integrated, cost-effective, and environmentally sound solid waste management system, and to promote through assistance and education, sustainable community programs and policies throughout Luzerne County.' It is an information office (1-800-821-7654) rather than an operator: the page lists only retailer take-back options (Best Buy Wilkes-Barre for televisions and monitors, Staples for small electronics), a September 2026 municipal special collection and shredding event, and directs residents to their municipality for collection questions. No county-operated recycling or bulky-waste facility is listed. Source Not confirmed: The county does not name any landfill or transfer station in Luzerne County that accepts a self-hauled mattress
