How mattress collection works in Bradford
Simply let us know the size and number of mattresses you need to get rid of, where from, and when for a free quote. Then we can book a time and date for mattress removal in Bradford. One of our purple vans and a couple of our professional team will come out to collect it.
They’ll lift, carry, and load the mattress for effortless removal (for you). Then it’ll be transported to a nearby waste transfer station in Bradford. The mattress will be checked and sent for donation, recycling, or incineration – depending on its condition and type. Either way, it’ll avoid going to landfill and be disposed of responsibly.
Most mattresses are recycled. They’re broken down, parts separated and then recycled alongside similar materials. For example, any metal springs will be sent for recycling with other metals – usually melted down and turned into new metal products. Foam from the mattress filling can be converted into carpet padding.
Who needs mattress removal in Bradford?
Mattress removal is available for the 210,000 households across Bradford, whatever the size and condition of your old mattress. Their shape makes them tricky to get rid of, but we can collect and load up any old mattress from houses, flats, and other homes in Bradford and the surrounding towns and villages.
There are also more than 80 hotels and B&Bs across the Bradford district. The mattresses in each room get lots of use and may experience damage. Plus, there are around 800 beds at Bradford Royal Infirmary. These mattresses are also at a higher risk of damage, and we can remove them when needed.
