Mattress REMOVAL

Why Mattress Removal is So Difficult

A mattress may not be so hard to dispose of on the surface. But the challenges start adding up once you try moving one. Mattresses weigh more than they appear and are floppy enough to be hard to maneuver through doors, staircases and tight hallways. And in case you do manage to wrestle it out of your house, you still think exactly where it could legally be dumped.

Most local landfills and waste facilities will not accept mattresses unless they're prepared in advance. That's because mattresses mix wood, steel springs, synthetic foam and fabric - all of which require different disposal methods. Dropping one illegally will get you a fine and harm the environment as well.

The struggle is even greater for apartment dwellers in Jacksonville. Most complexes prohibit mattresses from being left in dumpsters, and tenants can be fined or penalized for improper disposal. Whether you're moving, downsizing or upgrading, deciding what to do with that old mattress becomes a stressful roadblock.


This is why so many people in Jacksonville call Down South Junk Jax for mattress removal. We take care of from hauling it out of your house to recycling or dumping it properly.
