Campbellton junk disposal and bulky items

Where to take furniture, mattresses, appliances and household waste in Campbellton — with local pickup and drop-off rules kept separate.

Updated disposal decision: The Restigouche Regional Transfer Station at 7 Centennial Drive, Campbellton, operates Monday–Friday, 7:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m. and handles regional solid waste. The Campbellton Regional Community publishes distinct garbage calendars by collection area; a municipal spring cleanup notice does not create an all-year bulky pickup. For bulky mattresses or sofas, follow the material-specific steps below before choosing curbside pickup or self-haul.

Quick answer for Campbellton

For Campbellton-sector addresses, the municipal spring cleanup was May 18–29, 2026, and has ended. The May 5 official notice allows one large item at each pickup year-round only in the Glencoe/McLeods sectors; that permission does not extend to the Campbellton sector. Restigouche operates a transfer station at 7 Centennial Drive, Monday–Friday 7:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m.; call 506-789-2111 to confirm mattress/sofa acceptance and the actual charge before hauling.

Current disposal decision: mattress, box spring or sofa in Campbellton

Choose the correct route: The Restigouche Regional Transfer Station at 7 Centennial Drive, Campbellton, operates Monday–Friday, 7:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m. and handles regional solid waste. The Campbellton Regional Community publishes distinct garbage calendars by collection area; a municipal spring cleanup notice does not create an all-year bulky pickup.

Bulky item decision: For an old mattress, box spring or couch, use the Regional Community’s active collection notices to check whether a special cleanup has been announced; otherwise ask the Restigouche station whether private residential deliveries of the exact bulky item are accepted. Its 2026 $147-per-ton tipping rate is for general waste, not an advertised per-mattress or per-sofa rate. The operator also publishes different prices for white goods, so keep appliances separate.

Other material streams: The regional operator lists a separate household hazardous waste program. Do not transport leftover paint, chemicals or electronics as if they were upholstered furniture.

Operator verification: 506-789-2111 — ask whether the exact item is currently accepted, and which fee applies.

1. What ordinary curbside collection covers

Campbellton Regional Community publishes 2026 calendars separately for Campbellton, Atholville, Tide Head, and Glencoe/McLeods. Its May notice explicitly permits one large item per collection all year for Glencoe/McLeods only; it does not extend this rule to the Campbellton sector. The Campbellton spring cleanup was a May 18–29 event and is no longer a current drop-off/pickup window.

2. Regional landfill or transfer-station route

Restigouche Regional Service Commission runs the transfer station at 7 Centennial Drive, Campbellton Industrial Park, Monday–Friday 7:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m.; phone 506-789-2111. General solid waste is transported onward to Red Pine Landfill. The online page does not specify a currently accepted mattress/sofa category, so call before transporting furniture.

3. Appliances, chemicals and special waste

The 2026 spring-cleanup notice excludes propane/gasoline containers, refrigerators/freezers, tires, construction debris (including windows), liquids and trees. Restigouche also states that household hazardous waste is accepted only during specifically announced HHW events, not as a general drop-off service on ordinary station days. The regional operator posts separate white-goods charges. Neither the hazardous-waste schedule nor those appliance fees establish sofa/mattress acceptance.

4. Charges, schedules and booking

Restigouche RSC lists $147/tonne for general tipping in 2026, $115/tonne for clean construction and demolition waste from June–October, plus item-specific rates for white goods. The station has not provided an online mattress/sofa acceptance rule in the sources reviewed. A general tonne rate is NOT an item-specific disposal price or approval for mattresses.

Selected official detail checked October 14, 2026: The City hosts 2026 collection calendars by sector and publishes separate contractor contacts for recycling questions. Those recycling contacts are NOT proof of an available sofa or mattress pickup. For current municipal bulky-collection eligibility, ask Campbellton Regional Community at 506-789-2700; for station intake ask Restigouche at 506-789-2111. Its posted $147-per-ton 2026 general tipping rate is not an item-specific mattress price.

Before you arrange a bulky-item load

Waste and recycling rules can vary by building type, address, operator and material. Large items should not be left at the curb unless your applicable collection program explicitly authorizes them. Facility acceptance is different from curbside acceptance.

Before you load a truck or place an item outside

Check whether municipal or regional service applies to your property.
Identify the item’s exact stream: mattress, furniture, major appliance, metal, hazardous waste, construction material or ordinary household refuse.
Check the official fee, facility hours and any required booking or advance approval.
Secure your load and follow facility instructions for separation or special handling.

For national background, compare mattress disposal options, appliance disposal, and paid removal cost factors. The local sources below control the actual disposal rules.
