  • Why should I recycle my mattress?

    Over 300,000 mattresses are sent to landfill each year in Victoria. This is equivalent to over 5,700 per week. 

    Mattresses are made of valuable materials that are recyclable, this is wasted when they aren’t repurposed or disposed of correctly. 

    By recycling your mattresses correctly you:

    • Help reduce the amount of raw materials extracted from the environment
    • Help reduce air and water pollution as a result of the extraction and processing of raw materials
    • Reduce landfill.
  • What do I need to do to make sure my mattress gets collected (packaging)?

    For the health and safety wellbeing of our drivers and handlers, we require all mattresses to be covered in a plastic cover and no parts of the mattress to be exposed. It is also important your mattress arrives at the recycler intact to maximize its recyclability.

    You will receive instructions on how to separate and/or package your items through or after the booking process in an email.
