### Because Getting Rid of a Mattress is a Pain
New mattress delivered? Great. Old one still propped against your bedroom wall because you don't have a **van big enough** and the tip won't take it unless you book a slot?
> 💡 **Pro tip:** When you order a new mattress, some retailers offer disposal for £20-30. If they don't, or you've missed that option, getting it collected separately is still easier than hiring a van.

Good to Know
> 🎨 **Multiple mattresses?** Common when clearing a house or upgrading kids' beds. I can take several in one trip - works out cheaper than multiple journeys. **Other furniture?** If you're getting rid of a mattress, often the bed frame's going too. I can take both, plus any other furniture you're clearing. One trip, everything gone. **Recycling centres differ** - some accept mattresses free, some charge, some need booking. I know which ones take what and handle all that hassle for you.
Frequently Asked Questions about Mattress disposal in Newton Abbot
How much does mattress disposal cost?
Usually £60-£85 depending on size and access. That covers collection from your home, transport, and disposal fees at the recycling centre. Single mattress is cheaper than a king size, ground floor is easier than upstairs.
Do I need to wrap the mattress or prepare it?
No - I'll take it as is. If it's really grotty you might want to wrap it in plastic sheeting for the journey, but not required. I've got protection in the van.
Can you take it from upstairs?
Yes - that's half the point of the service. Mattresses are awkward and heavy, especially down narrow stairs. I'll get it down safely without damaging your walls or bannisters.
What if it's a really big or heavy mattress?
King size or super king are fine - just take a bit longer to maneuver. Memory foam mattresses are heavier but manageable. If it's something really unusual (waterbed, hospital bed) let me know when you call so I can plan appropriately.
Can you take other stuff at the same time?
Sure - old bed frame, pillows, other rubbish. There's a disposal fee for the tip run (covers time and tip charges), but if I'm going anyway it makes sense to take everything in one go.
