Recycling and donating old mattresses and box springs

Disposing of an old mattress can be challenging due to its size, landfill space, and disposal fees. Recycling or donating your mattress is a better alternative–for both you and the planet.

Up to 80-90% of a mattress can be recycled, and many components can be easily disassembled and repurposed into new products:

  • Foam Padding: Can be turned into carpet underlayment or animal bed padding/carpet padding
  • Fabric / Fibers: Can be used in industrial oil filters and other textile applications
  • Box springs: Can be recycled as metal scraps to make new appliances and building materials
  • Wooden frames: Can be shredded to produce landscaping mulch or burned as an alternative fuel source 

If your mattress is still in good condition, we can also donate it to a local charity, ensuring it gets as much use as possible.

Mattresses with bed bugs

We may be able to remove mattresses that have been treated by a professional pest control service. Please notify us in advance so we can take the proper precautions.  

Rules and regulations vary by city, so check with your local franchise before scheduling a pickup.

Mattress pickup and removal FAQs

No preparation needed! We’ll remove your mattress from wherever it is in your home — no need to move it outside.

Absolutely! If your mattress is in good condition (free from stains, rips, tears, and other damage), it can be donated. Each local charity has its own donation standards, so make sure to check ahead of time.

Yes! It’s quite common to recycle old mattresses. Approximately 80-90% of the materials can be reused and turned into new products. Some materials can even be used to create upcycled mattresses that perform just as well as brand-new ones.

Steel springs, wood frames, stuffing, and fabric are all recyclable materials that can be reused in different ways. However, mattresses can’t simply be left out with your regular recycling. You’ll need to find a facility that specializes in the mattress recycling process.

If you don’t have the time or means to transport your mattress, we’ll take care of everything for you.

Recycling your old mattress reduces the amount of landfill waste. Many mattress components take decades to decompose, making recycling an important step to reduce environmental impact. For more details, read why it's important to recycle your old mattress.

Yes, old mattresses can cause allergies. If you have symptoms that mainly appear at night, your mattress could be harbouring dust mites. They’re one of the most common household allergens that thrive in the cotton folds of older bedding. Replacing your mattress with a new, dust-mite-resistant mattress is a good solution.

While possible, it’s best to donate your mattress if it’s in good condition or recycle it to reduce landfill waste.

Most cities have regulations against dumping mattresses on roadsides or by dumpsters. Besides being unsightly, discarded mattresses can attract pests and harm the environment. Some cities have designated recycling facilities that residents are required to use.
