Give Your Mattress a Second Chance

Same pickup. Better outcome.

Your old mattress doesn't have to end up in landfill. If it's clean and in good condition, we'll inspect, sanitise and prepare it for someone who genuinely needs it.

Mattresses saved from landfill and given a second life — and counting.

Good Quality Mattresses Deserve a Second Chance

Most people don't think about what happens to their old mattress until the new one arrives. Traditionally, your options have been:

Pay to have it removed and recycled.
Wait for council hard rubbish and store it in your garage for months.
Save My Mattress offers a better alternative

If your mattress is suitable, we'll collect it, professionally assess it and prepare it for donation through our charity partners — giving it a second life instead of sending it straight to recycling.

It's one small decision that could make a real difference.

Giving your old mattress a second life is easy.

Inspection & Sanitisation

Your mattress is carefully inspected by our charity partner, Eastern Emergency Relief Network (EERN). If it meets our quality standards, it is professionally sanitised and prepared for its next home.

A Second Life

Suitable mattresses are donated through EERN to help individuals and families experiencing hardship.

If it isn't suitable for donation…

Mattresses that don't meet our quality standards are responsibly recycled through our recycling partners, helping recover valuable materials wherever possible.
