Mattress Recycling Program

Effective May 1, Granby will be part of the Connecticut Mattress Recycling Program. Recycling will be a seamless transition for residents of Granby. Mattresses and box springs will continue to be accepted at the Granby Transfer Station during hours of operation, be sent off for recycling just as they have been since July of 2012. The biggest change is that mattresses and box springs will be accepted free-of-charge. The state law now requires that a recycling fee be charged by retailers upon the purchase of a new mattress or box spring. This fee will cover the costs of transporting and recycling mattresses and box springs for participating towns. There are some exclusions to the law so please check the Town of Granby website (www.granby-ct.gov) or call 860-653-8960 for details.
