SANTA MARIA – The Mattress Recycling Council (MRC) recently welcomed three new Bye Bye Mattress sites in Santa Barbara County. These locations now offer no-cost drop off of mattresses and box springs (including futon mattresses) for state residents and businesses.
- Marborg Santa Maria, located at 1850 West Betteravia Road, Santa Maria, accepts drop offs from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
- Marborg Buellton, located at 97 Commerce Drive, Buellton, accepts drop offs from 8 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
- ASAP Movers, located at 1310 West McCoy Lane, Santa Maria, accepts drop offs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
Since 2016, MRC has recycled more than 14 million mattresses in California. The program’s recyclers have diverted 555 million pounds of steel, foam, fiber and wood from landfills. These valuable materials are used to create new products such as construction rebar, carpet padding, insulation, mulch or biomass fuel.
These three new locations join the five existing locations that continue to operate in Santa Barabara County. Mattresses collected at the curb by Marborg Industries are also diverted to recycling through this program. Visit ByeByeMattress.com to find the option nearest you…
