Replacing a mattress may seen daunting , but you can sleep well on your new mattress knowing that you took care of your old one the right way!
Ask Your Retailer. When you purchase a new mattress, ask the retailer to collect your old one. Many retailers partner with mattress recycling programs and non-profit organizations for donations.
Donate It. Non-profit organizations like Goodwill, Habitat for Humanity, and St. Vincent de Paul often will take and even pick up mattresses. Call ahead to verify because each local affiliate tends to have different rules and processes for accepting mattresses.
Schedule A Pick- Up. Mattresses are considered bulk waste and your garbage service provider may collect them for you- all you have to do is schedule a pickup. Republic Services offers its existing customers a bulk waste removal for mattresses when wrapped in plastic for safe and efficient disposal.
The Borough of Fountain Hill offers plastic mattress bags for free to its residents to responsibly dispose of mattresses. Please stop by Borough Hall during office hours (Monday- Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. ) to claim a bag.
Fountain Hill residents- must provide proof of residence for a free bag.
