Should You Spend Your Valuable Time on Furniture Removal?

Getting Mattress Junk Removal in Katy TX

Old mattresses can be one of the most difficult items to get rid of. They’re large and awkward to deal with, to start, so getting rid of them isn’t quite as simple as trashing other items. Fortunately, you do have an option for mattress disposal in Katy, TX. Junk King handles mattresses, box springs, bedframes, and much, much more. If you’re looking for a full service junk removal team, we’re here for you. Here are a few things to consider when dealing with your old mattress.  

Is Your Mattress Under Warranty?

Before you give us a call to dispose of your mattress, you may want to check to see if it’s still under warranty. Many Texas mattress makers in Katy do provide warranties. They can last anywhere from four or five years to ten or twelve. You may need to contact the manufacturer to find out the specifics. If your mattress is damaged but still under warranty, it’s possible the manufacturer will handle everything. They may remove the old mattress and bring you a replacement at no cost to you. Some warranties only cover the replacement. If that’s the case, you’ll want to give Junk King a call and arrange to get rid of the mattress. If you’re looking for how to dispose of a futon mattress, the answers are often the same. Even though they’re usually smaller than a traditional mattress, they’re still usually treated the same.  

Can You Sell a Used Mattress?

Selling used mattresses is an area of contention in many areas. Some states allow it, while others do not. Texas law does allow for the reselling of mattresses commercially. However, it’s not as simple as putting mattresses out on the showroom floor. Stores that sell used mattresses must have a permit to do so. The Texas Department of State Health Services has a number of regulations these businesses must follow in order to properly sell used mattresses. First, the mattress must be cleaned using one of the different approved cleaning methods. These include chemical sprays and commercial laundering services. Businesses will have to pay for this, of course, and will add that cost to the price of the mattress. They can’t simply put a cover on the mattress to hide any stains, either. Covers must be removed. You’re probably not starting a used mattress company, though, so can you sell your mattress online without doing any of this? You can but do be aware that many people may not want to buy a used mattress that has no guarantee. They will want to know that it comes from a clean home and is in good condition. You may be better off selling it to a business that resells mattresses. Be aware, though, that they may not offer much. If your mattress is stained, old, or does not appear to be in good condition, they may also refuse to buy it. You may also need to have a way of taking it to the store. Some of these businesses do not offer pickup services.  Bigger Trucks
