Getting rid of a mattress sensibly
Do
- Check the tip's current rules before you set off, especially if you have a van
- Wrap or cover the mattress so it stays clean in the car
- Measure the stairs and doorways before you try to move it
- Ask for help, as mattresses are heavy and floppy
Don't
- Leave it on the street or in a lay-by, as that is fly-tipping
- Hand it to someone who cannot show they are a registered waste carrier
- Strap it to a roof rack without securing it properly
- Try to carry it down the stairs alone
