Cheapest
Tacoma Recovery and Transfer Center self-haul disposal
Open to City of Tacoma residents at the resident rate on proof of residency, and to non-city residents and commercial customers at the higher rate. A Call-2-Haul self-haul appointment by a residential account holder is free and counts as one of that customer's two annual services.

Visit siteHidden Valley Transfer Station self-haul disposal
LRI transfer station serving Pierce County; the price sheet charges residential and commercial disposed waste at the same rate and states no residency restriction. Pierce County residential or commercial yard waste under a ton is free.
Conditions and source
17925 Meridian Ave East, Puyallup, WA 98375, main office 253-847-7555, open every day 8:00 am to 5:45 pm except New Year's, Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. The 2022 price sheet sets disposed waste at $172.44 per ton with a $34.49 minimum per trip including up to 400 pounds, and states that three or fewer mattresses or box springs are charged as regular garbage while four or more are $55 apiece. LRI's current rates page instead shows $202.35 per ton with a $40.50 minimum per trip including up to 400 lbs. All rates include the 3.6% state refuse collection tax. Household hazardous waste is accepted Tuesdays and Thursdays only, 8am-12pm and 1pm-5pm.
- $40.50 — Current LRI minimum charge per trip including up to 400 lbs ($202.35 per ton), including the 3.6% state refuse collection tax
- $55 — Each mattress or box spring when a load carries four or more; three or fewer are charged as regular garbage by weight (price sheet updated 3/1/2022, not repeated on the current rates page)
Not confirmed: The mattress rule comes from a price sheet updated 3/1/2022, and the current rates page carries no mattress line, so the $55-apiece figure may be stale.
Not confirmed: piercecountywa.gov returns HTTP 403 to automated fetches, so the County's own transfer station page could not be cross-checked.

Washington mattress disposal rules
- County warehouse referral has Everett locality and 425-931-3670; primary operator now directs drop-off to Mukilteo and uses 425-876-0107. County directory appears stale for this referral. Source
- No enacted Washington mattress stewardship law found. SB 6271 (2026; companion HB 2633) would create mattress producer responsibility organizations; referred to Senate Environment, Energy & Technology Jan 21, 2026, public hearing Feb 4, 2026, no later action shown. Source
- Ecology's 1-800-RECYCLE locator (1800recycle.wa.gov) lists 'Home & Garden - Mattresses' as a searchable material; hotline 1-800-732-9253, Mon-Fri 9am-3pm. Ecology's How to Recycle page also directs residents to county or city solid waste officials. Source
- There is no mattress recycling program in Washington State, and the absence is worth stating because both neighbors have one. The Mattress Recycling Council, which runs the Bye Bye Mattress collection network, says of itself: "We currently provide resources, education and support for programs in California, Connecticut, Oregon and Rhode Island." Washington is not among them. A Washington resident has no free state-funded drop-off of the kind an Oregonian twenty miles away in Milton-Freewater or Hermiston has, and no Bye Bye Mattress collection site to look up. What the county charges at the gate is what the resident actually pays. Source
