Hartsville/Trousdale County Convenience Center mattress disposal ($20 per mattress, 1st and 3rd Saturdays)
The consolidated government splits its two services by where a household lives: "For residents that live outside of Hartsville, trash and recyclables can be taken to the County's Convenience Center located at 250 Industrial Park Drive, Hartsville. For Hartsville residents, residential trash service is available." The mattress policy itself states no residency test and asks for no proof of address; its only stated limit is that "the equivalent of one level pickup truck load per day will be accepted." Whether a household inside the former Hartsville city limits may also use the center is not stated.
Conditions and source
Two conditions decide whether the trip works. The day: "Mattresses are accepted on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays." And the money: "Must have exact amount for the fee(s); change will not be made." The county explains the charge as following "the landfill's implementation of charges for mattress disposal", authorized by the HTC Public Works Department. Saturday hours at the center are 8am to 5pm in both the summer and winter schedules. A load is capped at the equivalent of one level pickup truck load per day. Public Works is at 615-374-9574.
Not confirmed: The policy prices "per mattress" and never mentions a box spring, so what a box spring costs is not established.
Not confirmed: Whether a resident of the former Hartsville city limits may use the convenience center is not stated.
Not confirmed: Whether the mattress is recycled or landfilled is not stated beyond the county calling the charge a disposal fee.

What Trousdale County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Hartsville and its neighbors.
- The Hartsville/Trousdale County government does collect household trash at the curb, but only inside the old town line, and it says nothing about large items. Its Residential Trash Services page states that "Residents in the Urban Services District, formerly the City of Hartsville city limits" can sign up for residential trash service by calling the Public Works Department at 615-374-9574, or by using the contact form and selecting "Sanitation/Trash Pick Up". On price, the page says only that "the monthly fee for Door-to-Door Trash Collection Services will increase by $5.00" from July 1, 2025, without stating the base figure. An extra container is a flat purchase: "An additional trash can/cart may be purchased for $100", with an Additional Trash Can Application brought to the Public Works office with payment. Recycling is not part of it — "residential recycling pick-up is not currently available". Nothing on the page offers a bulky item, furniture or mattress pickup, sets a large-item fee, or gives a set-out window for one. Because Hartsville and Trousdale County are a single consolidated government, this curbside service is legally a county function even though it reaches only the former city limits; a household in the rural county is sent to the convenience center instead. Source Not confirmed: The monthly charge for door-to-door trash collection is not published; the page gives only the $5.00 increase effective July 1, 2025. Not confirmed: The page never mentions large or bulky items, so whether a mattress may be set out for the curbside service, at any price, is not established. Not confirmed: The county does not define the Urban Services District boundary on this page beyond calling it the former City of Hartsville city limits.
Tennessee mattress disposal rules
- No statewide mattress stewardship program or landfill ban found on TDEC pages as of 2026-09-22; mattress disposal is handled by local governments. Source
- TDEC Materials Management page links a 'Where may I dispose of recycle items near me?' ArcGIS dashboard (arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/f7515b25ca29478a8adc6a9dc8c1f7c1); program supports 95 counties and solid waste planning regions. Source
- The ArcGIS dashboard TDEC links from its Materials Management page is titled "County Recycling Centers". Its correct address is arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/f7515b25ca29478a8adc6a9dc8c1f7c1 — this corrects the partially recorded id in st-tn-102 (the id f7515b25ca29478a8a1b9bd68a4bba51 returns "item cannot be found"). It is the statewide map residents use to find county recycling centers. Source
- TDEC's Waste Management Branch page lists the state's full set of solid waste programs — Solid Waste, Landfill Operators Certification, waste tire hauler, hazardous and medical waste, and Materials Management (Recovered Materials, grants, HHW, waste tires, organics, debris management, BOPAE household batteries/oil/paint/antifreeze/electronics). No mattress program, bulky-waste rule or disposal ban appears. The page also links the Solid Waste Dataviewer (dataviewers.tdec.tn.gov/dataviewers/f?p=19035:34001), which searches facility information, inspection reports, complaints and forms. It notes that, effective August 1, Materials Management moves into TDEC's Division of Stakeholder Engagement with programs and services continuing unchanged. Source
- Mattress Recycling Council's Program States page names exactly four program states — California, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Oregon. Tennessee is not among them, confirming there is no MRC-run mattress stewardship program or Bye Bye Mattress free drop-off network in Tennessee. 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.
