Page 4 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, October 21, 2022 DISPOSAL | FROM PAGE 2 Residents should also be aware that if you are purchasing another mattress from a retail store, you should always ask what they charge for removal as it might be less expensive than Malden’s new curbside service. Please also note that once you have booked an appointment with HandUp, there are rules about how to set out the mattress, what condition it must be in for it to be recycled and other important information. This information can be found at cityofmalden.org/mattress. About the statewide initiative MassDEP points out that mattresses are made up almost entirely of recyclable materials. Once disassembled, more than 75 percent of mattress components can be recycled. At the same time, discarded mattresses and box springs can be notoriously diffi - cult to manage. They are expensive to transport, take up a lot of space in landfi lls, are hard to compact and can get caught in incinerator processing equipment. All these factors result in higher disposal costs, so recycling or reuse only makes sense. For more information about the statewide mattress recycling requirement, visit the MassDEP website: https:// www.mass.gov/service-details/ mattress-recycling. About Malden’s recycling vendor, HandUp HandUp is a social impact business in New Bedford, Mass., that recycles and upcycles mattresses in an environmentally sustainable way.
