Section § 42992

Explanation

If you buy a new mattress, retailers must offer to pick up your old one for recycling when they deliver the new mattress, at no extra cost, unless it's contaminated and unsafe.

They can use third-party services for delivery and pickup but can charge for delivering the new mattress. Common carriers, like those used for online purchases, don't have to take the old mattress. However, starting January 1, 2021, they must offer to organize recycling pickup within 30 days if they deliver the mattress.
