Mattress Disposal London
Getting rid of an old mattress is more complicated than it sounds. You can’t leave it on the kerb, most councils won’t collect it for free, and fitting it in a car is nearly impossible. Whether you’re replacing a worn-out single or clearing out a whole property, mattress disposal doesn’t have to be stressful. JunkBunk offers fast, affordable, and eco-responsible mattress disposal in London — we do the heavy lifting so you don’t have to.
Same Day Mattress Disposal London
Need your mattress gone today? JunkBunk offers same day mattress disposal in London for those moments when you can’t wait — whether you’ve just taken delivery of a new bed, you’re mid house move, or you simply need the space back urgently.
Our same day service works simply: call or book online before midday and in most cases we can have a team with you the same afternoon. We cover all London boroughs and operate six days a week, so there’s almost always a slot available near you.
Same day mattress disposal is ideal when:
- Your new mattress is arriving and the old one needs to go first
- You’re moving out and need the property cleared quickly
- A landlord or letting agent requires the room empty same day
- You’ve run out of storage space and can’t wait for a council collection slot
There’s no need to drag the mattress outside or wrap it up — our team will collect it directly from the bedroom, including upstairs floors and flats without a lift. Contact us now to check same day availability in your area.
Next Day Mattress Collection London
Not in a rush but don’t want to wait weeks? JunkBunk offers next day mattress collection across London for a guaranteed, planned slot that fits your schedule. Book today and we’ll confirm your collection for tomorrow — no uncertainty, no chasing the council.
Our next day bed collection service is perfect when you’ve just bought a new bed online and know exactly when it’s arriving, or when you want to plan your clearance without the pressure of a same day booking.
Next day mattress and bed collection is ideal when:
- You want a confirmed time slot rather than an urgent same day visit
- You’re planning a bedroom refresh and need the old bed gone beforehand
- You have both a mattress and bed frame to dispose of and want time to prepare
- You’re a landlord turning around a property between tenants
We collect mattresses and bed frames of all sizes across all London boroughs. Book before 5pm and in most cases we can schedule your mattress collection for the following morning.
What Types of Mattresses Do We Collect?
Before booking a collection, it helps to know what size mattress you’re disposing of. Here’s a quick UK guide:
- Small Single (2’6″ × 6’3″ / 75 × 190 cm) – Common in children’s rooms and bunk beds.
- Single (3’0″ × 6’3″ / 90 × 190 cm) – The most standard size for one person.
- Small Double (4’0″ × 6’3″ / 120 × 190 cm) – Also called a “Queen Small,” popular in flats with limited space.
- Double (4’6″ × 6’3″ / 135 × 190 cm) – The most common adult couple’s mattress in the UK.
- King (5’0″ × 6’6″ / 150 × 200 cm) – Wider and slightly longer than a double.
- Super King (6’0″ × 6’6″ / 180 × 200 cm) – The largest standard UK size, often found in master bedrooms.
- EU Sizes (e.g., 160 × 200 cm, 180 × 200 cm) – Increasingly common due to imported bed frames.
We collect all mattress sizes — from a child’s single to a super king — from any room in your home, including upstairs bedrooms. We also offer a full bed collection service — mattress, bed frame, headboard, and divan base all removed in a single visit, with no dismantling required on your end.
Why You Can’t Just Put a Mattress in the Bin
A mattress is classified as bulky waste. Most London boroughs offer a bulky waste collection, but it’s rarely free, requires booking days in advance, and you still need to get the mattress outside yourself. Fly-tipping is illegal and can result in fines up to £400. That’s where old mattress disposal services like JunkBunk come in — we handle the logistics, stay compliant with UK waste regulations, and ensure the mattress is taken to a licensed facility.
Bed Frame Disposal – We Take the Whole Lot
Getting a new bed? We don’t just collect the mattress — we also remove your old bed frame at the same time. Whether it’s a wooden slat frame, a metal divan base, an upholstered ottoman, or a full storage bed, our team will dismantle and take it away as part of a single visit.
Disposing of a bed frame separately can be a real hassle — they’re bulky, awkward to move, and most councils won’t collect them on standard rubbish days. Booking a combined mattress and bed frame disposal with JunkBunk saves you time, money, and a second trip.
We collect all types of bed frames including:
- Wooden bed frames – single, double, king, and super king
- Metal bed frames – including bunk beds and cabin beds
- Divan bases – with or without drawers
- Ottoman and storage beds – we dismantle on site if needed
- Upholstered and fabric frames – headboards included
Just let us know when booking that you have a bed frame to go alongside the mattress and we’ll factor it into the quote.
Old Mattress Disposal – What Happens to It?
Most people don’t realise that up to 75% of a mattress can be recycled. At JunkBunk, we work with licensed waste carriers to ensure your old mattress disposal is handled responsibly:
- Steel springs are melted down and reused in manufacturing.
- Foam layers are shredded and used as underlay or insulation.
- Fabric covers go through textile recycling where viable.
- Only materials that cannot be recovered go to landfill — and we aim to keep that to an absolute minimum.
