You have multiple options for disposing of mattresses. Options are:
- Pay the disposal charge at the landfill or transfer station.
- You can strip the mattress themselves (not allowed to do this at the site). Step 1: Use a knife to cut around the edge of the mattress. Step 2: Pull back and roll up the lining/stuffing – this can be placed in household kerbside bin or taken to landfill/transfer station for disposal. Step 3: Metal springs can be taken to the landfill or transfer station for disposal free of charge.
- At Bairnsdale Landfill they can take the mattress to the Tip shop who will strip it for them.
