Village of Mount Pleasant annual bulk pickup (GFL Environmental)
Households in the Village of Mount Pleasant on the Village's contracted collection. The Village contracts through GFL Environmental, and each household is provided one free annual bulk pickup, up to a maximum of seven cubic yards. Pickups are booked with GFL Environmental Customer Service by calling 262-679-0860 or through GFL's support form, not with the Village.
Conditions and source
One free bulk pickup per household per year, capped at seven cubic yards. Televisions and freon appliances are not included in the free pickup. Each additional bulk pickup is charged at $50.00 per bulk item. The Village names appliances, building materials, carpeting and furniture as the kinds of items GFL accepts, and sets preparation rules: building materials broken down and containerized with nothing loose on the ground, bins no heavier than 50 pounds and nothing protruding more than four feet; cardboard contained or bundled and no larger than two feet by two feet; carpeting rolled and taped or tied, no longer than four feet and under 50 pounds; furniture items under 150 pounds; tires off the rim, one per week. Freon appliances carry a $25.00 disposal fee each as of January 2026, while dishwashers, dryers, furnaces and boilers, microwaves, stoves and ovens, washers, water heaters and water softeners are collected at no charge. The Village publishes no accepted or unaccepted list of its own and refers residents to GFL's Bulk Pickup Guidelines. The Village's own code, § 66-2, requires containers to be at the roadside by 7:00 a.m. on the collection day and no sooner than 15 hours before 7:00 a.m. of that day, and removed within 12 hours after collection.
- $0 — One free annual bulk pickup per household, up to a maximum of seven cubic yards, in the Village's own words. Televisions and freon appliances are not included in the free pickup. The Village does not say whether a mattress is an accepted item.
- Plus $50 — $50.00 per bulk item for every bulk pickup after the one free annual pickup: 'Each additional bulk pickup is a charge of $50.00 per bulk item.' The Village does not say whether a mattress and a box spring would count as one item or two.
Not confirmed: Neither the Village nor its code names a mattress or a box spring. The only list the Village points to is GFL's national Bulk Pickup Guidelines page, which names mattresses and box springs among items generally accepted while stating that the lists vary by location and must be confirmed with the local branch, so acceptance in Mount Pleasant is not established.
Not confirmed: It is not stated whether a mattress counts as furniture for the 150-pound cap, nor whether a mattress and box spring count as one bulk item or two for the $50.00 per-item charge.
Not confirmed: No outcome is published: the Village does not say whether bulk items are landfilled or recycled.
Not confirmed: No wrapping, bagging or bed-bug rule is published for a mattress.

GFL Emerald Park Landfill self-haul mattress drop-off
No residency rule is published. Waukesha County names the site for its residents without restricting it, and the operator publishes no eligibility rule for the location.
Conditions and source
Waukesha County lists this site under the heading "Furniture, Mattresses, Boxsprings" as a "Disposal Option" — "GFL Emerald Park Landfill — Muskego, Wisconsin: 414-529-1360" — and again under "Trash" as one of "2 privately-owned landfills if your hauler will not pick up your type of trash: Emerald Park (GFL) Muskego: 414-529-1360". The street address comes from the county's household hazardous waste page, which lists its Muskego collection site as "W124S10629 South 124th St" and adds "(at the GFL Emerald Park Landfill)". The operator's branch page for Emerald Park carries no address, no hours, no fee schedule and no accepted-materials list, so nothing beyond the county's referral and the address is published about taking a mattress here. The hazardous waste collection held at the same address on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays, 8 a.m. to noon, February through November, is Waukesha County's program and is not a route for a mattress.
Not confirmed: No scale hours are published for self-haul at Emerald Park; the Saturday 8 a.m. to noon hours on the county page belong to the hazardous waste collection, not to the landfill
Not confirmed: No mattress fee, minimum charge or per-ton rate is published by Waukesha County or by the operator
Not confirmed: Whether a self-hauling household may use the scale, and whether proof of residency is required, is not published
Not confirmed: Whether a mattress taken here is recycled or buried is not stated

What Mount Pleasant itself says
What we established about this city in particular — including where it runs nothing of its own and residents have to look elsewhere.
- There is a licensed sanitary landfill inside Mount Pleasant, and the Village's own code restricts what may be taken there. Code of Ordinances § 66-32 records that 'At the time of the adoption of the ordinance from which this article is derived, there is one licensed sanitary landfill site presently operating in the Village,' operating under state and county rules under which 'material to be disposed of may only be collected from, or brought to, the site from the county.' Section 66-33 makes that a Village offense: 'No person shall, for hire, dispose of any material whatsoever in any licensed sanitary landfill site location in the Village if such material is collected from, or brought to, such sanitary landfill site from outside the county,' with a narrow exception for commercial and industrial waste from Kenosha County, but not municipal refuse from Kenosha County. Section 66-34 requires a permit from the Village Board, expiring June 30 each year, before any person transports garbage or other refuse into or within the Village for dumping or disposal, at a fee set by the Board. The article's former § 66-35, a compost drop-off site, was repealed on April 22, 2024. Source Not confirmed: The code does not name the landfill, give its address, say whether it takes self-haul loads from households, or publish any gate rate, so no drop-off for a resident with a mattress is established from it. Not confirmed: The § 66-33 restriction is written against disposal 'for hire', so what it means for a household hauling its own mattress is not stated. Not confirmed: The Village Board has not published the § 66-34 permit fee on this page.
What Racine County offers
Established for the county as a whole, so it applies across Mount Pleasant and its neighbors.
- Racine County WI's Refuse and Recycling page tells residents that 'Each area has its own contract concerning waste management and the rules often vary' and links only to municipal programs - the City of Burlington, the Village of Caledonia, the Village of Mount Pleasant and the Village of Sturtevant - for collection routes, recycling, hazardous and electronic waste and bulk item pickup. The county names no county-run facility. Source Not confirmed: Racine County operates no county landfill, transfer station or bulky item collection of its own, and publishes no mattress fee; mattress disposal is a municipal matter
