Anytime you need to dispose of a large item like an old mattress, it begs the question: should you throw it away, donate it, or find a solution for recycling? And ultimately, just how do you get rid of the darn thing?

An old mattress can be especially tricky for several reasons:

The size and weight of mattresses make curbside disposal a non-option.
A very old mattress may be limp and difficult to move.
Mattresses are resilient — they don’t flatten or compact in landfills.
The materials often contain substances that are environmentally harmful when thrown away.

Junk removal services offer the perfect solution for getting rid of an old mattress. Junk-King has an eco-friendly policy so we never send items to the landfill when it can be avoided. Make the appointment and our crew will show up to carry away your old mattress (and box spring!) so you can say goodbye to it without any worries.

Recycling an Old Mattress

Mattresses can be recycled, but homeowners cannot complete all the steps on their own. After the fabric, metal, and plastic components have been separated, each material must be sent to an appropriate recycling facility.

Junk-King Sonoma works with recyclers around Marin and Sonoma Counties to make old mattress disposal as green as possible.

Donating an Old Mattress

Need a new mattress, but the old one is still in good shape? Junk-King Sonoma also coordinates donation efforts with local non-profit organizations. Clean and bedbug-free mattresses can be sent to shelters, charity-based thrift stores, and other organizations who can put your old mattress to good use.

Of course, you still need help with mattress removal — and Junk-King Sonoma offers your simplest solution for transporting mattresses to a donation center. Charity pick-up services charge fees for mattress pick-up, and you have to work with their schedule. Junk-King Sonoma shows up on-time for your chosen appointment.
