Strengthening Oregon’s Environment One Mattress at a Time
In March 2022, Gov. Kate Brown signed SB1576 creating a statewide mattress recycling program for Oregon. The law is similar in structure to MRC’s existing state programs and will require that retailers, manufacturers, importers, distributors and renovators of mattresses for sale in Oregon register their business with a stewardship organization.
MRC will submit a program plan to Oregon’s Department of Environmental Quality in 2023 and has opened its registration portal for:
- Producers – If you manufacture, distribute or import mattresses or foundations that are sold in Oregon
- Retailers – If you sell or offer for sale mattresses or foundations in Oregon
- Renovators – If you sell or offer for sale mattresses or foundations in Oregon
- Review this Oregon obligations information sheet for additional details and resources
What’s next
Look for ongoing announcements from MRC as we begin the process of connecting with stakeholders while we build our network of collection sites, transporters and mattress recyclers.
We anticipate the program will launch in 2024.
