Mattress Disposal

Mattress disposal,
collected from your door.

Mattresses can't go in your normal bin, and most councils either charge for a bulky waste collection or make you book weeks in advance. Post your mattress collection here instead — EA-licensed handlers local to you send priced quotes, usually within a couple of hours, and you only pay once it's actually gone.

What does mattress collection cost?

A single mattress on its own is usually one of the cheaper bulky items to collect — handlers quote based on size, your postcode and how easy it is to access. You'll typically see quotes cheaper if you're bundling it with other items in the same collection, since the handler's already making the trip.

Most single-mattress quotes fall somewhere around £25–£60 — get exact prices by posting your job.

Every handler is EA Verified

We check each handler's Waste Carrier Licence number against the EA public register before they can respond to a single job, and re-verify monthly. If a licence lapses or is revoked, the account is suspended immediately.

Frequently asked questions

Can I get a mattress collected on its own, or does it need to be part of a bigger job?
On its own is completely fine — post it as its own job with a photo and your postcode, and handlers will quote accordingly.
Do mattresses get recycled, or do they just go to landfill?
Licensed handlers are required to dispose of everything responsibly and can't simply landfill what's recyclable. Many mattress components (springs, foam, fabric) are recycled separately — you can check any handler's EA licence and reviews on their profile before booking.
Does the mattress need to be outside or accessible?
It helps to mention access in your job description — stairs, tight doorways, flats without a lift — so handlers can quote accurately rather than adjusting on the day.
How quickly can a mattress be collected?
It depends on handler availability in your area, but many respond with a quote within a couple of hours and can arrange collection within a few days.
