Affordable Bed & Mattress Disposal Services

Disposing of an unwanted mattress or bed can be challenging, especially if you're unsure of the best way to do it. You want to ensure you're not contributing to waste while also being mindful of the impact on your time, energy, and finances.

Fortunately, several options are available when disposing of your old bed or mattress, including using the services of a tasker you can connect with via the Ezy Peazy platform. Here are some of the most meaningful and sustainable ways to get rid of unwanted bedding.

Transport To A Refuse Station

One of the most common ways of disposing of an old bed or mattress is by taking it to a refuse station. Most major New Zealand cities and towns have waste facilities where you can dispose of large items like furniture and bedding.

If you choose this option, tie the bed or mattress securely to your car roof or hire a trailer if you have a tow bar. Transporting and unloading the bed at the refuse station can be hard work, so ensure you're up for the physical task. Also, there will be fees involved in disposing of the bed at the refuse station.

Professional Disposal Services

If you want to avoid going through the stress and hassle of disposing of your bed or mattress yourself, you can hire a professional removal expert you can find through Ezy Peazy. Post details about your removal requirements for free in just a few clicks, including location, budget, and preferred time. And make sure your offer is inclusive of tip fees.

While hiring an expert bed and mattress removal service can be more expensive than taking them to a refuse station by yourself, it saves you a lot of time, effort, and stress.

Donate To Charity Or Someone Needy

If your bed or mattress is still in good condition, consider donating it to a charity or giving it to family or friends. Charities like the Salvation Army often accept bed and mattress donations, but it's essential to check with them first to see if they have any specific requirements.

Alternatively, you can ask if any family or friends need a bed or mattress. If the charity, family, or friends accept your offer but can't collect the bed or mattress, consider asking a man with a van via Ezy Peazy to help with transportation.

Recycling Or Landfill Transfer Station

If your bed or mattress is no longer in good condition, it's essential to dispose of it sustainably. Recycling is the ideal option if it's available in your area. If you need help, you can break up the bed or mattress yourself and take it to a landfill transfer station or dispose of it in pieces through your council rubbish collection. This can be time-consuming and messy, but it's a responsible way to dispose of your old bedding.

Sell Via An Online Platform

Finally, you can sell your bed or mattress on Facebook Marketplace, Trade Me, or another local outlet. This can be a good option if your bedding is still in good condition. However, it's important to remember that many people may not have a roof rack or a tow bar, so transportation may be an issue. In this case, consider finding a removal tasker on the Ezy Peazy platform to help move it.
