Mattress collection in Tonbridge and Malling
Kent is a beautiful county and we all need to play our part in keeping it that way. Recycling is one way to do that.
When you buy a new mattress, you will likely need to dispose of the old one. As few retailers now collect your old mattress when delivering your new one, you have three options to make space.
You can:
- Take your mattress to the recycling centre (tip)
- Have the council collect it as bulk waste
- Use Collect Your Old Bed
Take your mattress to the recycling centre
There’s a new place to take your waste, the Allington Household Waste Recycling Centre by the M20.
The upside is that it’s a new centre with plenty of space to unload. The downside is that you have to book a slot in advance. Plus, it gets very busy on weekends!
You’ll need proof of address once you get there too, to make sure you live in the area. Otherwise, it’s a straightforward experience.
Have the council collect it as bulk waste
Like most councils, Tonbridge and Malling offer a bulk waste collection service. They will collect up to 6 bulky items for £58.
That’s expensive compared to many other councils. Plus, if you only need to get rid of a mattress, that’s an even more expensive option!
As long as the mattress is visible from the road at 7 am on the day of collection, the council will manage it for you.
Use Collect Your Old Bed
Collect Your Old Bed works in a similar way to the council. The advantages are that we are much cheaper, don’t make you recycle 6 items to make it worthwhile and recycle 100% of your old mattress.
Simply book a date, pay through the website and we’ll take care of the rest!
