Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to drop off a mattress at Sleep Well Recycling?

The fee is $45 per item regardless of mattress size — twin, full, queen, or king all cost the same. Box springs are also $45 each. Payment is accepted by cash, check, or Venmo at drop-off.

No appointment is needed for drop-off. Simply arrive at 525 Riverside Ave, Burlington VT during open hours (Monday through Saturday, 10 AM to 5 PM). For pickup from your home, an appointment is required — book at sleepwellrecycling.com.

What happens to the mattresses that Sleep Well Recycling collects?

Each mattress is broken down by hand into components: steel springs, foam, cotton fiber, and fabric. These materials are then sent to downstream processors for reuse — steel goes to scrap yards, foam is repurposed, and fiber is recycled. Almost nothing goes to the landfill.
