How to Donate Your Mattress to Charities That Pick Up
Donating your mattress to charity is a great way to give back to your community and help those in need. It’s also an environmentally-friendly way to get rid of an old mattress, as many charities will pick up the mattress for free. Here’s how you can donate your mattress to charities that pick up:
Research Charities That Pick Up
The first step is to research charities that offer mattress pickup services. Many local charities, such as Goodwill and The Salvation Army, offer free pickup services for donated mattresses. You can also look for national organizations that accept mattress donations, such as Habitat for Humanity and 1-800-GOT-JUNK?.
Schedule a Pickup
Once you’ve found a charity that offers pickup services, the next step is to schedule a pickup. Most charities will have an online form or phone number where you can schedule a pickup. Make sure to provide all the necessary information, such as your address and contact information.
Prepare Your Mattress
Before the charity arrives to pick up your mattress, make sure it’s ready for donation. Remove all bedding and linens from the mattress and make sure it’s clean and dry. If possible, wrap the mattress in plastic or shrink wrap before donating it. This will help keep the mattress clean during transport and storage.
Donating your mattress is a great way to give back to your community while also helping out the environment. With these tips, you can easily donate your old mattress to charities that pick up for free.
