The rain did not stop Westport residents from being part of the zero waste solution at this weekend’s Free Bi-Annual Mattress/Box Spring Recycling Event.

59 mattresses/box springs, weighing an incredible 3,231 lbs, were diverted from the trash with the help of our recycling partner Bye Bye Mattress. Over 90% of the material collected at the event can be recycled into new products, instead of ending up in a landfill or incinerator.

Special THANK YOU to Boy Scout Troop 36 for their hard work in the rain, picking up roughly 75% of the mattresses/box springs from our community!
