Robertson County Transfer Station self-haul ("Mattresses are $15.00 each")
The county sets no residency test and asks for no proof of address on its fee page. It sets two prices instead: "$85/ton in county, $100/ton out of county with an $8 minimum for all Solid Waste and Construction Type materials". The department describes itself as operating "a Transfer Station & Recycling Center for residents and businesses in Robertson County", and the page is headed "NO COMMERCIAL ACCEPTED ON SATURDAYS", so Saturday is for households. Whether the in-county rate requires proof of a Robertson County address is not stated.
Conditions and source
The mattress charge is a flat per-item figure on the county's own fee list, alongside a $10.00 charge for anything containing a compressor or capacitor and $4.00 for a propane cylinder. The county does not say whether the $15.00 is added to the $8 minimum or the per-ton weight charge for the same trip. Hours are Monday through Friday 7:00 am to 3:00 pm, where "you must be in line by 3:00 p.m. to enter", and Saturday 7:00 am to 11:00 am, where "the line is cut off at 11:00 am". No commercial loads on Saturdays. Hazardous material is refused: "We do not accept any type of hazardous material." The county's six convenience centers are no help with a mattress — they "accept Bagged Household Garbage ONLY" with a ten-bag limit, and "All other items must be carried to the Transfer Station."
- $8 — The county's minimum charge on the scale: "$85/ton in county, $100/ton out of county with an $8 minimum for all Solid Waste and Construction Type materials (weight is calculated on 20 lb. increments.)" Out-of-county material is priced at $100 per ton against the same $8 floor.
- $15 — Robertson County's published transfer station fee list: "Mattresses are $15.00 each". Charged by the piece. The county does not say whether this stands alone or is added to the $8 minimum or the $85 per ton in-county rate for the same trip.
Not confirmed: Whether the $15.00 mattress charge stands alone or is added to the $8 minimum or the per-ton rate for the same trip is not published.
Not confirmed: Whether the mattress is recycled or landfilled is not stated; the department says only that it operates the station "where waste is collected and disposed".
Not confirmed: Whether the lower in-county rate requires any proof of address is not stated.

Sam's Creek Transfer Station self-haul (bulk items including mattresses, $77/ton resident plus $10.00 per mattress)
Cheatham County asks for evidence that the user belongs to the county: a Cheatham County wheel tax sticker on the vehicle, or proof of county property ownership, usually a property tax statement. The county's rate card treats residents and commercial customers differently — $77 per ton for county residents against $82 per ton for commercial waste from July 1, 2026 — and the scales run Tuesday through Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., closed Sunday and Monday.
Conditions and source
A mattress is one of the bulk items the county lists for this site: "furniture, appliances of any size, construction debris, tires, carpet, bicycles, boats, gas tanks, mattresses and scrap metal". It is weighed at the resident bulk rate of $77 per ton with a $6.00 minimum charge on the scales, and the county's public notice adds a flat charge of its own: "Mattress and box springs will be an additional $10.00 per item." Payment is cash, check or credit card only. Loads must be secured — a residential load in a truck bed must be tarped if it rises above the bed, and a lower load secured so nothing can blow out. The county's four other convenience centers at Ashland City/Thompson Road, Pleasant View/Old Clarksville Pike, Griffintown Road and West Cheatham are not listed as taking furniture or mattresses, and all four close on Wednesdays.
- $6 — Cheatham County's public notice: "The minimum charge for the scales at the Transfer Station will be $6.00." Above that floor, bulk items are weighed at $77 per ton for county residents and $82 per ton for commercial waste from July 1, 2026. Payment is cash, check or credit card only.
- $10 — Cheatham County's signed public notice: "Mattress and box springs will be an additional $10.00 per item." Charged per piece, so a mattress and its box spring are $10.00 apiece. The notice does not say whether this is additional to the $6.00 scale minimum, to the $77 per ton resident weight charge, or to both.
Not confirmed: The county says the $10.00 per item is "additional" without saying additional to what — the $6.00 scale minimum, the $77 per ton weight charge, or both.
Not confirmed: Whether the per-item mattress charge applies at the four smaller convenience centers or only at the Transfer Station scales is not stated.
Not confirmed: Whether a mattress taken here is recycled or landfilled is not stated.

What Cheatham County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Pleasant View and its neighbors.
- Cheatham County, TENNESSEE collects nothing at the curb. Its solid waste page is a list of five drop-off sites, their hours, what each takes, the scale rates at Sam's Creek and the rules for covering a load — and it offers no collection service of any kind, no bulky item pickup, no appointment line and no annual cleanup. The county's answer to a household with a mattress is self-haul to Sam's Creek with a wheel tax sticker or a property tax statement, and the county says so by what it publishes rather than by refusing anything. What Ashland City and Pleasant View do for their own residents belongs on those cities' pages and is not restated here. Source Not confirmed: The county never states in so many words that it runs no collection; this is an absence from its own solid waste page rather than a published refusal. Not confirmed: Whether Ashland City or Pleasant View collects large items was not researched here and is left to the city pass.
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
