Bye Bye Mattress

How Bye Bye Mattress works.

California charges a recycling fee when a new mattress or box spring is sold. That money pays to collect and recycle the old ones instead of burying them. You can drop one off free at Miramar Landfill on weekdays, 7am–3pm, if you can get it there. A lot of people would rather not wrestle a king into a truck. That’s what we do.

  1. 01

    You buy a mattress

    The recycling fee is already on the receipt. That’s what pays for the program.

  2. 02

    We pick yours up

    Curbside or full service in San Ysidro. You don’t have to drive it to Convoy Street.

  3. 03

    It gets taken apart

    Steel, foam, fabric, and wood get sorted the same day.

Recycling

How a mattress gets recycled.

We don’t leave them in alleys. The coils become scrap metal. Foam becomes carpet pad. Fabric gets shredded. Most of a mattress can be reused if someone actually takes it apart.

  • Steel springs are separated and sold as scrap metal.
  • Foam and latex are shredded for padding and insulation.
  • Cotton and fiber get pulled for industrial shred.
  • Wood from box springs is diverted from landfill when it can be.
