Free Mattress Delivery and Haul Away Denver: What to Do with Your Old Mattress | Sleep Basil Denver
Share
"I had no idea what to do with my old mattress when I bought my new one from Sleep Basil. The free haul away service and knowing it was going to be recycled responsibly made the whole experience so much better!" - Jessica, Highlands Ranch customer.
After 25+ years in the mattress industry, we've learned that purchasing a new mattress should be easy—not stressful. That's why Sleep Basil offers free mattress delivery and haul away service throughout the Denver metro area and surrounding communities. But what happens to your old mattress after we haul it away? The answer involves an incredible Denver organization that's transforming lives while protecting our environment.
The Mattress Waste Problem in Colorado
Every year, between 20 and 40 million mattresses end up in U.S. landfills—and Colorado faces particular challenges with waste diversion. Unlike other household items, mattresses don't decompose easily, taking up valuable landfill space for decades while potentially releasing harmful chemicals into the environment.
In Denver's growing metro area, the mattress disposal problem is particularly acute. With thousands of new residents moving to Colorado annually and existing residents upgrading their sleep setups, responsible mattress disposal has become a critical environmental and community issue.
Meet Spring Back Colorado: Breaking Down Mattresses, Building Up Lives
When Sleep Basil hauls away your old mattress during our free delivery and removal service, we partner with Spring Back Colorado, a remarkable nonprofit social enterprise that's revolutionizing mattress recycling while transforming lives in our community.
Located in Commerce City, Spring Back Colorado operates with a powerful mission: "Breaking down mattresses, building up lives." This award-winning facility doesn't just recycle mattresses—they provide sustainable employment opportunities for disenfranchised men and women, including those with felony convictions and individuals in recovery programs.
The Numbers Are Impressive
Since 2012, Spring Back Colorado has:
- Recycled over 6,000 mattresses monthly
- Diverted 11 million pounds of materials from landfills
- Provided employment for nearly 200 individuals
- Recycled over 100,000 mattresses and box springs annually
How Mattress Recycling Works
At Spring Back's Commerce City facility, skilled workers carefully dismantle each mattress, separating materials into reusable components:
Steel Springs: Recycled into new metal products Foam: Processed into carpet padding and automotive components Wood Frames: Repurposed for building materials Cotton and Fabric: Turned into industrial wiping rags and insulationTicking (Outer Fabric): Recycled into new textile products
Over 90% of each mattress gets recycled or repurposed, dramatically reducing landfill waste while creating valuable raw materials for other industries.
