Since many people don’t know how to dispose of old mattresses, my team at Tuck.com created a guide on how mattresses can be recycled, donated, and disposed of legally.
You can a look at the resource here: https://www.tuck.com/mattress-disposal/
The Mattress Recycling Council estimates that up to 20 million mattresses are disposed of every year in America. When it’s time to get rid of an old mattress, many people don’t even realize that there are better options available than dumping their trash on the sidewalk. We’re hoping that spreading awareness of cleaner, greener disposal options will keep old mattresses out of landfills and neighborhood streets. Our guides have been featured by organizations including NBC News, Harvard University, and Lifehacker.
If you have any questions or feedback, my team would love to hear it. Thanks so much for your time and for considering us as a resource. Also, if there is a better person at your organization to speak to or if this message has reached you in error, please let me know.
Best,
