Mattress and base components take many years to break down and as a result, council’s, in encouraging a sustainable future, now either refuse to except them all together or have a separate charge for them to cover the costs they incur when recyclers such as ourselves collect them from their sites.

There are many expenses relating to the recycling process including labour rates in order to have the mattresses and bases broken down, vehicle running costs related to the collection of the mattresses and bases and costs related to the running of the business including electricity, gas, water and so on for the premises used in order to carry out the recycling process and the process is time consuming when it is done manually using only hand tools such as knives, pliers etc.

Our open days have been a great success, interested parties have had the chance to see how the recycling process is carried out. Dates and times of future open days will be published in local papers and in the media.

Our recycling centre is located in the Newcastle City Council precinct but mattresses and bases can not be dropped of at this location however, we do pick up.

For further information or to arrange a collection, simply contact us using one of the available methods in the contact us link on the left.
