Liberty County Pct 1 Garbage Transfer Station mattress drop-off

349 FM 770, Raywood, TX 77582 · 13 miles away · destination not stated

The precinct's rate sheet publishes no residency rule: it neither limits the station to Liberty County residents nor says it is open to all comers. What it does set out is who needs paperwork first. “* PERMITS MAY BE OBTAINED AT LIBERTY COUNTY PCT 1 BARN” covers the free senior citizens permit, and “CONTRACTOR ACCOUNTS MUST BE ESTABLISHED AT PCT 1 OFFICE” covers trade users. A household paying the posted rate for a mattress needs neither. The station is run by Liberty County Commissioner Precinct 1 out of the County Barn at 349 FM 770S, Raywood.

Conditions and source

349 FM 770, Raywood, TX 77582; 936.587.4922, with the Precinct 1 office at 936-587-4417. Open “7:00 AM – 5:00 PM · WED – SAT”, which the precinct page repeats as Wednesday through Saturday, 7:00 am to 5:00 pm. The rate sheet prices a mattress by name, as “MATTRESSES & SOFAS MINIMUM $10”. The rest of the schedule, for context: a free senior citizens permit limited to two household bags per week; recyclable products (paper, oil, oil filters, batteries, tires, no tractor tires) priced “TBD”; household 30-gallon bags at $1; a pickup bed up to 8 ft. at $12; trailers at $20 for 10 ft., a $30 minimum for 16 ft. and a $40 minimum for 20 ft.; and appliances at $5 each. Liberty County runs no single solid waste department — each commissioner precinct posts its own sites and rates, and this is the only one of them that names a mattress.

Not confirmed: The $10 is printed as a minimum and the sheet does not say what raises it.

Not confirmed: The rate sheet the county serves from its Precinct 1 page carries a fax stamp of 08-17-2016. No newer Precinct 1 schedule is published, so the figures may be older than the page that links them.

Not confirmed: No residency or precinct-of-residence rule is published, so no eligibility area is recorded against this drop-off.

Not confirmed: The county does not say whether a mattress is recycled or buried, or where the station transfers its waste.

Not confirmed: The sheet does not say whether the free senior citizens permit covers a mattress or only the two household bags a week it names.

What Liberty County offers

Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Dayton and its neighbors.

  • Liberty County's other precinct trash sites publish no mattress policy at all, and one of them publishes a restriction a reader should see before driving there. Precinct 2 lists four sites — “Hull-7981 FM 834 West, Hull, 936-536-3522”, “349 FM 770, Raywood, TX 77582”, “Rye-27869 Hwy 146 North, Rye, 281-593-0206” and “Tarkington-377 CR 2206, Cleveland TX” — open “Wednesday-Saturday, 7:00 am -5:30 pm”, and attaches a single standing limit to all of them: “The county dumps are located in Tarkington, Rye, Hull and Raywood. At this time we will ONLY accept household garbage.” The precinct publishes no fee schedule and no accepted or refused item list beyond that sentence, and it does not say whether a mattress counts as household garbage or not. Precinct 4 lists the Liberty County Collection Center at “(FM1413 & CR 491)”, open “Wednesday thru Saturday”, “7:30 am - 5:30 pm”, phone “(936) 298-2790”, and publishes no street address, no fees, no eligibility rule and no item list of any kind. Neither precinct names a mattress, a box spring, bedding or furniture anywhere, so nothing is modeled from either and no price is recorded. The one Liberty County site that does price a mattress is the Precinct 1 station at 349 FM 770, Raywood. Source Not confirmed: Precinct 2 publishes no fee schedule for any of its four sites and no accepted or refused item list, so whether a mattress may be left there is unestablished. “ONLY accept household garbage” is a limit, not a named refusal of a mattress, and it is not read as one here. Not confirmed: Precinct 4's Liberty County Collection Center has no published street address, only a crossroads, and publishes no fees, eligibility or item list. Not confirmed: Liberty County publishes no county-wide solid waste department page. Each precinct posts its own site details and they do not agree in format, so a county-wide rate or rule could not be established. Not confirmed: The county's Precinct 3 page lists no trash site at all.
