Cheapest
Hardin County Citizens' Collection Station mattress drop-off (county citizens, permit bought in advance)
Hardin County citizens only, with a permit bought before the trip. The county's own words, printed on both the page and the rate flyer: “FOR HARDIN COUNTY CITIZEN USE ONLY, NO CONTRACTORS OR BUSINESSES” and “PERMITS MUST BE PURCHASED BEFORE ARRIVING!” Permits are sold at the Floodplain Administration Office, 225 Crocker Street, Kountze, TX 77625, (409) 246-5251, or online through the county's Citizens Collection Station Permit payment link; the county adds “NO REFUNDS! NO EXCEPTIONS!” The test is Hardin County citizenship, not living outside a city, so Lumberton and Silsbee residents qualify on the same terms as anyone else in the county.
Conditions and source
1675 Joe Register Rd., Kountze, TX 77625; (409) 385-5501. Open Tuesday 9:00AM to 5:00PM, Thursday 9:00AM to 5:00PM and Saturday 9:00AM to 1:00PM. A mattress is named outright in the county's accepted list: “Accepted Items Include: Household Garbage, Furniture, Mattress”. Refused: “Any hazardous materials (Tires, Batteries, Paint, Chemicals)”, “Televisions, Computers, Monitors, Cellphones” and “White Goods (Household Electrical Appliances, Including but not limited to: Stove, Washer/Dryer, Dishwasher, Water Heater, Refrigerator, Air Conditioner)”. You do the lifting: “You are responsible for unloading items yourself.” The charge is by the size of the load rather than by the item, under rates effective February 1, 2024.
- $20 — “Truck Bed $20” on the Hardin County Citizens' Collection Station flyer, under “NEW RATES EFFECTIVE: February 1, 2024”. This is the charge for a pickup bed load, which is what a household bringing a mattress — named in the county's accepted list as “Household Garbage, Furniture, Mattress” — would ordinarily pay. The county publishes no per-item mattress price; it charges by the size of the load.
- $30 — “Trailer up to 10 ft. $30”, Hardin County Citizens' Collection Station, rates effective February 1, 2024.
- $50 — “Truck Bed and Trailer up to 10 ft. $50”, Hardin County Citizens' Collection Station, rates effective February 1, 2024.
- $50 — “Trailer over 10 ft. (Max 30 ft.) $50”, Hardin County Citizens' Collection Station, rates effective February 1, 2024.
- $70 — “Truck Bed and Trailer over 10 ft. (Max 30 ft.) $70”, Hardin County Citizens' Collection Station, rates effective February 1, 2024.
Not confirmed: No per-mattress price is published. The county charges by load size, so one mattress in a pickup costs the truck-bed rate of $20.
Not confirmed: The county does not say what proof of Hardin County citizenship a permit buyer must show, or how long a permit lasts.
Not confirmed: The county does not say whether a mattress is recycled or landfilled, or where the station's waste is transferred to.
Not confirmed: No limit is published on how many bulky items one permit covers.
