• Ozaukee County, Wisconsin keeps no solid waste function at the county level and operates no landfill, transfer station or citizen drop-off site. Its own department directory lists every county department — County Board, Administration Center, Aging & Disability Resource Center, Clerk of Courts, Corporation Counsel, Child Support, County Administrator, County Clerk, District Attorney, Victim/Witness Program, Economic Development, Emergency Management, Finance, Highways, Human Resources, Human Services, Justice Center, Land & Water Management, Land Information Office, Lasata Senior Living Campus, Planning & Parks with its Parks, Golf and Ecological divisions, Public Health, Register of Deeds, Register in Probate, Sheriff with the Jail, Information Technology, Transit, Treasurer, UW-Extension, Veterans Services and the Workforce Development Center — and there is no solid waste, refuse, recycling, landfill or transfer station department among them. No county scale, drop-off site or convenience center is published anywhere on the county site, and the county charges no mattress fee because it runs no facility at which to charge one. Wisconsin assigns responsible-unit recycling duties to the town, village or city, and Ozaukee is one of the counties that keeps none of it: Mequon, Grafton, Cedarburg and Port Washington are each on their own, and so are the towns that run their own drop-off sites. Source Not confirmed: The county publishes no list of the private landfills or transfer stations inside it, so there is no county-sourced fee or mattress policy for any site in Ozaukee County Not confirmed: Several towns in the county run their own drop-off sites under their own ordinances; those are municipal programs and are left to the city pass
• Ozaukee County, Wisconsin publishes no collection program of any kind, and the one county-wide program it does run takes no mattress. The Land & Water Management Department's Clean Sweep Program is a chemical and tire collection: the county describes it as a way for residents to dispose of old, unwanted chemicals, and runs it with the Highway Department and Veolia Environmental Services. The 2026 event has been held and the next Household and Agricultural Chemical and Tire Collection is set for May 1, 2027; a fee schedule for it is to be posted early in the year. The only standing drop-off the page names is used oil at the Port Washington Highway Facility, 410 Spring Street, Port Washington, for county residents. There is no county bulky item collection, no county large item allowance, no voucher and no free dump day, and mattresses, box springs, furniture and bulky waste are not mentioned on the page. Source Not confirmed: The 2027 Clean Sweep fee schedule was not published at the time of checking; it covers chemicals and tires, not bedding Not confirmed: The page does not state a residency rule for the chemical collection beyond the used oil drop-off being for county residents
• Ozaukee County, Wisconsin publishes no mattress recycler and no recycling program that would take one. Its Land & Water Management Department's program list is the county's whole environmental offering: the Clean Sweep Program for hazardous materials, chemicals, pesticides and tires, a Tree & Shrub Sale, a Prairie Plant Sale, the Best Management Practices cost-share program, the Nutrient Management Program, the Milwaukee River Watershed Clean Farm Families coalition, the Wildlife Damage Abatement and Claims Program, the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program, the Forestry Cost-Share Program and the State Wildlife Damage Program. No recycling, landfill, transfer station or bulky item collection appears among them. Nothing on the county site says a mattress is recycled anywhere in Ozaukee County, and Wisconsin has no state mattress recycling program that would fund a collection site here. Source Not confirmed: Whether any private mattress recycler operates inside Ozaukee County was not established; the county names none
• Ozaukee County, Wisconsin publishes no reuse or donation outlet at all, for a mattress or for anything else. Unlike Waukesha and Washington counties, which print a list of charities beside each material, Ozaukee's county departments publish no disposal directory: the Land & Water Management Department's pages cover the Clean Sweep chemical and tire collection and its conservation cost-share programs, and nothing on the county site names a thrift store, ReStore, furniture bank or shelter. There is therefore no county-wide donation option for a mattress recorded here, and no county-published refusal either. Source Not confirmed: No county-wide furniture bank or reuse organization with a published mattress acceptance was found in Ozaukee County; local thrift stores are left to the city pass
