1/10/22. CITY OF CHARLESTON WEBSITE - 426 mattresses were recycled in 2021 through drop-off events in partnership with BedShred and SCDHEC! This effort diverted 10.9 tons of material from the landfill saving nearly 15,000 cubic feet of space! The results were part of a pilot program generously funded by SCDHEC. While the City's 2021 pilot program does not have ample funding to continue, residents are encouraged to recycle mattresses via BedShred.com.
