What a Waste - The truth about mattresses and landfill

Over 8.5 million mattresses go to landfill every year in the UK alone. The growth in bed-in-a-box brands has also led to a huge increase in used, returned mattresses that are often disposed of too - a huge waste of money and a huge impact on the environment.

Many of the mattresses thrown away each year are perfect as a ‘foundation’ for a new mattress topper. Often, it is only the top few centimetres that are worn out with the springs or foam base still being virtually as new.

Buying a new mattress topper is much cheaper than buying a similar quality mattress too, it can be as little as a tenth of the price. Plus, you don't just save money, you save your old mattress which in turn helps a little to save the planet.

On top of all of that, the carbon footprint of manufacturing and delivering a topper is a fraction of that for a similar mattress.

Don't throw away your mattress and your money, save both by upgrading your comfort with a mattress topper.
