Quick answer for Hanover
The Town publishes an explicit 2026 mattress rate at its joint landfill: $22 per spring mattress. Sofa/furniture loads are governed by the applicable sorted waste category, not the mattress line.
1. What ordinary curbside collection covers
Hanover has normal household garbage and producer-operated recycling programs, separate from self-haul disposal at the joint Hanover/Walkerton landfill.
2. Regional landfill or transfer-station route
Hanover/Walkerton Landfill, 868 Bruce Road 4, serves residents of Hanover and Walkerton. Open Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday 8 a.m.–3 p.m. and closed on statutory holidays.
3. Appliances, chemicals and special waste
Household chemicals, propane cylinders and paint are not accepted in ordinary landfill garbage; use regional hazardous-waste collection. Refrigerated appliances must have Freon removed.
4. Charges, schedules and booking
2026 landfill schedule: $22 per mattress; sorted garbage $148/tonne ($12 minimum); unsorted waste $296/tonne; qualified appliances with Freon removed $12.50 each.
What still needs a last check
Check whether the exact box spring or other bedding type falls under the published spring-mattress category before claiming the $22 fee applies.
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.
