Increase in Late Reporting and Remittance Fees Effective September 1, 2025

Late Reporting: Fee will increase from $25 to $50 per late Fee Report

Effective September 1, 2025, a retailer that is more than 30 days late in submitting a Fee Report to MRC will be assessed a late fee of $50 per Fee Report for each reporting period in which a Fee Report is not filed. The late fee is assessed on the 31st day following the reporting period for the Fee Report and all subsequent reporting periods until the Fee Report is filed.

Late Fee Remittance: Interest will increase from 1% to 1.25%

Effective September 1, 2025, a retailer that fails to remit its fees to MRC within 30 days following the reporting period will be assessed interest on these fees at a rate of 1.25% per month (compounded monthly), calculated as of the 31st day following the reporting period.

The Fee Policy will be updated to reflect the changes as of September 1, 2025.

If you have outstanding Fee Reports or fee remittances due to MRC, please take this opportunity to input all reports and make outstanding payments no later than August 31 to avoid the increased fee charges.

Oregon Notice Regarding the Sale of Renovated Mattresses

The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) has required the Mattress Recycling Council Oregon, LLC (“MRC”) to notify all retailers participating in MRC’s Oregon mattress stewardship program (“Program”) that Oregon consumers must not be charged a mattress stewardship assessment (the fee) when purchasing a renovated mattress or foundation. However, retailers must continue to report the number of renovated units sold each month.

Additionally, DEQ has instructed MRC to inform retailers who have collected the stewardship assessment (the fee) on any renovated mattress or foundation to issue a refund to the consumer.

This notification does not change any other obligations for reporting or collection of fees under the Program. MRC will update retailers if there is any change to this policy.
