What can go where in Yarmouth
Junk, furniture and mattresses. Checked November 6, 2026. Rules change, so confirm with the town before you set anything out.
Bulky items are brought to the Disposal Area and paid for at the Scale House. The fee list shows $25 each for bulky items such as furniture; the regulations specify box springs, upholstered furniture and large bulky items at $25 each.
Fee: $25 each item (box springs, upholstered furniture, large bulky items).
Yarmouth sends acceptable mattresses to ACE Mattress Recycling. They must be from Yarmouth residences, clean and unsoiled; bedbugs, covers, wet or moldy or twisted mattresses are refused, as are futon mattresses, car seats and crib mattresses.
Fee: $35 per mattress (fee list and regulations); box springs $25 in the regulations, while the mattress page says $35 for all mattresses and box springs.
Refrigerators, air conditioners and dehumidifiers carry a refrigerant fee, and a refrigerator's door must be removed before it is accepted. Other scrap metal and white goods are charged by weight. Commercial refrigerant units need a recovery certificate.
Fee: $18 per refrigerant unit; metal and white goods $65 per ton, $10 minimum.
CRTs (televisions, computer monitors and display screens) are charged $15 each. The town's recycling guide says computers, laptops, phones and TVs go to the Scale House, where fees apply.
