Bye Bye Mattress
How Bye Bye Mattress works.
California’s mattress recycling program is funded by a recycling fee collected when a new mattress or box spring is sold. That money pays to collect, transport, and recycle used units instead of burying them. The City of San Diego drop-off at Miramar Landfill is free on weekdays, 7am–3pm — if you can get it there. We exist for everyone who would rather not drag a king into a truck.

It gets taken apart
Steel, foam, fiber, and wood are sorted into the recycling stream the same day.
Recycling
How a mattress gets recycled.
We don’t leave units in alleys. Coils become rebar and appliances. Foam becomes carpet padding. Fabric is pulled for shredding. Most of a mattress can be reused as something else — 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.
