Don’t Throw These Out!
Mattresses and textiles must be recycled instead of thrown away at the Needham RTS.
They are items that you need to get rid of, but you know they shouldn’t be tossed in the trash. Sure heavily worn clothing and used mattresses are not likely to get used by someone else as is, but they can find a useful life through recycling. Soon it will be mandatory for that recycling to occur at te Needham Recycling and Transfer Station. Here is what you need to know in order to properly dispose of these tricky items!
