Overview
Mattress Removal services
An old mattress is one of the hardest items to get rid of yourself: too floppy to carry alone, too big for the car and not something the wheelie bin can help with. We cover Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Lancashire, Cheshire, High Peak, West Yorkshire and South Yorkshire for mattress uplift and recycling routes. The Waste Removers remove mattresses, divans, bed bases and related bed items from homes, flats, student lets, HMOs, furnished rentals and managed buildings, carrying from upstairs bedrooms, shared entrances and tight landings where access is safe. Send photos of the mattress size, access route and any bed base or frame before booking. If a mattress is soiled, wet, stained or unhygienic, it must be wrapped before arrival. An invoice and Digital Waste Transfer Note follow every completed collection.

Sensitive situations
Scenarios we handle

Landlord resets
Student lets, HMOs and furnished rentals cleared with records.
Stair carries
Upstairs bedrooms, flats, landings and shared entrances checked in advance.
Soiled mattresses
Soiled, wet or unhygienic mattresses must be wrapped before arrival.

Scope
What we clear
We remove cot, single, small double, double, king and super king mattresses, bunk mattresses, zip-link mattresses, toppers, divan bases, headboards and suitable bed frames. Lightweight frames can be reviewed where safe to dismantle. This is mattress removal, not specialist cleaning, treatment or full house clearance. Contaminated, unsafe or unhygienic items must be raised before booking and may be outside the service.

Do you take bed frames as well?
Bed bases, divans, headboards and suitable bed frames can be included when listed before booking.

Mattresses are sent through suitable reuse, recovery or disposal routes where available. The exact route depends on condition and processor requirements.

Strip bedding, clear the route to the door and tell us about stairs or tight corners. If the mattress is soiled, wet, stained or unhygienic, it must be wrapped before arrival.

No. The Waste Removers do not clean, sanitise, disinfect, bag or wrap mattresses. Any soiled or unhygienic mattress must be wrapped before arrival.
