Most charities will not take a used mattress. These are the ones we checked, including the ones that say no.
- The Salvation Army (satruck.org): accepted-items list includes 'Mattresses' and beds; also says local ordinances and need vary by location and to call 1-800-SA-TRUCK to confirm what a local center accepts. Source
- Doesn’t take mattresses. Habitat for Humanity national ReStore guide: 'Mattresses and box springs are not accepted.' Source
Policies vary by branch. Call before you carry one over — we asked each of the big three directly: Goodwill, the Salvation Army and Habitat for Humanity.
What Newcastle itself says
What we established about this city in particular — including where it runs nothing of its own and residents have to look elsewhere.
- The hauler's Newcastle page names a mattress in the bulky route and gives the booking line: "Bulky items like mattresses, appliances, console televisions, furniture and building materials can be picked up by special arrangement. Contact WM Customer Service or call 800-592-9995 (M-F 7 am - 7 pm, SAT 9 am - 1 pm)." Source Not confirmed: That sentence is a template: it appears byte-identical on this vendor's Duvall, Snoqualmie and north King County pages, so nothing Newcastle-specific has been taken from it. The Newcastle figures come from the dated rate table instead
What King County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Newcastle and its neighbors.
- Current directory table lists ten transfer/drop-box facilities under one county operator. General access requires living or doing business in the county service area; Seattle and Milton are excluded. South County is now open to all customers according to the current banner. Proposed Northeast project and closed landfills are outside the ingested table. Source Not confirmed: Directory is not branch-specific mattress acceptance. Exact street addresses and permitted customer documentation still need branch verification.
- Shared operator policy explicitly names Bow Lake, Enumclaw, Factoria, Shoreline and Vashon for mattress, futon and box-spring recycling. Each item has a $30 handling fee; six-item customer limit. Wet items excluded; stains and tears allowed. Policy is reused across named branches only. Source Not confirmed: Bedbug and other contamination rules, downstream processor, mixed-load/base fees and mattress-specific receiving hours remain unknown. South County is not named.
- Fee schedule separates $33.39 per mattress disposal at Algona, Cedar Falls, Houghton and Renton from $30 per mattress recycling at five named recycling stations. General garbage minimum $40.25 (up to 320 pounds), $243.38/ton, and $25 unsecured-load fee are separate components; no combined mattress total inferred. Special-waste mattresses at Cedar Hills require waste clearance and list $1,129.24/ton. Solid-waste rows include basic fee, moderate-risk surcharge and 3.6% refuse tax. Source Not confirmed: Applicability of garbage minimum/weight in addition to mattress charges is unresolved. Algona remains in fee page while current directory uses South County; no transfer of rate inferred.
- Cleanup LIFT gives eligible holders of current ProviderOne, EBT or ORCA LIFT cards $20 off each waste type per visit, including mattresses. Show card on entry and exit. Businesses and Seattle/Milton residents excluded. Not an automatic $20 discount per mattress. Source Not confirmed: Discount application for multiple items and mixed loads must be verified before computing totals.
- South County address is 35101 W Valley Hwy S, Algona, WA 98001. General eligibility excludes Seattle/Milton; separate hazardous-waste rules include Seattle, which does not establish mattress access. Garbage is consolidated for Cedar Hills; recycled materials go to processing markets. The page links shared fees but does not state mattress acceptance. Source Not confirmed: Branch mattress acceptance, handling rate and downstream recycling must be established; do not inherit former Algona fee or generic hazardous-waste eligibility.
- Bow Lake warns of recycling-area construction starting June 22 and distinct recycling-area versus transfer-building hours. Generic garbage destination is Cedar Hills; materials separated for recycling enter processing markets. Branch page does not establish a mattress-specific receiving window. Source Not confirmed: Confirm mattress receiving area/hours during construction; retain shared five-facility acceptance evidence separately.
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

- Check you qualify. Many sites serve only residents of their own city or county.
