How do military bases dispose of old barracks mattresses?
Recycling keeps them out of the landfill. LRP Recycling works with military bases and the Defense Logistics Agency Disposition Services (DLA) to remove barracks mattresses and furniture, haul them to our processing centers and recycle the materials, documented with a Certificate of Total Recycling.
Each year Army, Air Force, Navy, National Guard and other military bases must get rid of used or unneeded mattresses and furniture, most of it from barracks renovations or worn-out pieces.
The DLA is looking for green solutions for unwanted mattresses and furniture. LRP Recycling supports those sustainability efforts with all the logistics needed to remove and transport the items from any military installation.
