At LRP Recycling, we partner with colleges and universities nationwide to turn routine dorm upgrades into significant environmental achievements. A recent project at a New York-based college is a clear example of how mattress recycling benefits both students and the planet.
Sustainable Dorm Transitions with Big Impact
As part of campus housing improvements, this college recycled 422 Twin XL mattresses, ensuring they were kept out of landfills and processed responsibly. The environmental impact was substantial:
✅ 22,788 pounds of material diverted from landfills
💧 211,000 gallons of water saved
⚡ 1,266 days of energy conserved
⛽ 1,688 tanks of gas saved
This initiative helped the school modernize its residence halls while making sustainability a core part of the student experience.
