Mattress Recycling Council

The Mattress Recycling Council (MRC) is a nonprofit organization formed by the mattress industry to operate recycling programs in those states that have enacted mattress recycling laws.

The program is currently running in California, Connecticut and Rhode Island and is known as Bye Bye Mattress to consumers. Each state’s program is funded by a recycling fee collected when consumers buy a mattress or box spring.

We are committed to educating the mattress industry about state’s mattress recycling laws and assisting retailers and manufacturers in complying with those laws. Through our work with local governments, waste management professionals, recyclers and others we have successfully developed accessible and efficient collection and recycling networks in our program states.
