Massachusetts Waste Bans
Waste bans are prohibitions on the disposal and transfer for disposal of certain toxic and/or recyclable items. Waste bans are intended to encourage reuse and/or recycling of certain waste materials, conserve disposal capacity, and reduce adverse environmental impacts from waste materials containing toxic substances. Please click here for the Massachusetts Waste Ban Fact Sheet . Beginning November 1, Mattresses and Textiles will be added to the list of items prohibited from being deposited into landfills and incinerators.
