Mattress Disposal London (Eco-Friendly)

Over 7 million mattresses go to landfill in the UK every year. Here is how to recycle yours in London.

Tips

Mattresses are bulky and difficult to recycle because they contain mixed materials (steel springs, foam, fabric). However, they take up huge amounts of landfill space.

Our Recycling Process

We strip mattresses down by hand. The steel is melted down, the foam is used for carpet underlay, and the fabric is used for industrial fuel.

Why You Shouldn't Fly-Tip a Mattress

Mattresses are the most common item fly-tipped in London. Councils are using CCTV and "waste detectives" to track offenders. The fine is substantial.

Collection Options

  • Council Bulky Waste: Cheap but slow. You must leave it dry on the kerb.
  • Mme Waste Ldn: We collect from your bedroom. No dragging it down the stairs.

How to Book

Simply send us a photo of the mattress (single, double, king) on WhatsApp, and we'll give you a fixed price for collection.
