Have an old mattress that you no longer need?
Ever thought what else could you do with your old mattress instead of throwing it away? If yes, then the answer to that lies in mattress recycling. Regardless of what you think, there is a lot more that can be done with that old mattress of your mattress instead of throwing it in the trash. Read on to know how you can do just that.
One of the easiest ways to recycle your old mattress is to find some use for it in your house itself. It can make an excellent bed for your pet, especially if it likes scratching the floor, surfaces or even your bed. If you have small kids or toddlers, then you can use the mattress on the floor to let your kids learn to walk on, so that they are not hurt when they fall down on it.
One of the most common things that people do to their old mattresses is putting them outside their houses for others to pick up and take away free. If it is not too old or damaged, then you can also sell it for a decently low price at a yard sale, or donate it to people who really need it.
A great way to get your mattress recycled and put to some good use are services that actually specialize in doing just the same. An example of the same is a youth service organization that specializes in picking up mattresses from people’s homes and then deconstructing them and recycling the mattresses. The biggest advantage of this is that it saves you from going through the hassle of doing this on your own.
Most such services to pickup and recycle mattresses work by picking them up weekly in residential areas. If you too are looking to do the same, then check out your local youth service organizations or helping groups for mattress recycling. Recycling your mattress is a great way to get some value out of it, and avoid any harm to the environment in the process!
