Alabama Campus Strengthens Sustainability with Mattress Recycling

Alabama Campus Strengthens Sustainability with Mattress Recycling

At LRP Recycling, we partner with colleges and universities across the country to turn routine dorm upgrades into measurable environmental wins. Our recent project at a college in Alabama demonstrates how mattress recycling can keep thousands of pounds of waste out of landfills while supporting campus sustainability goals.

Recycling That Delivers Results

As part of a residence hall refresh, this campus chose to responsibly recycle 400 twin mattresses, helping protect local ecosystems and conserve critical resources. Through this effort, the project delivered:

✅ 21,600 pounds of material diverted from landfills

💧 200,000 gallons of water saved

⚡ 1,200 days of energy conserved

⛽ 1,600 tanks of gas saved

These results highlight the powerful impact of eco-friendly waste management decisions—right where students live and learn.
