Old mattress disposal: Where to take it?

Can you leave an old mattress next to the trash bin?

The short answer is no. An old mattress is classified as bulky waste. If you leave it next to the apartment building's municipal waste container, the housing association has the right to issue you a hefty bill for special waste handling, which is often more expensive than ordering official removal.

Additionally, mattresses left in the open air quickly absorb moisture, making them exponentially heavier and harder to transport.

How to officially dispose of an old mattress?

If you have a spacious car or a trailer, you can transport the mattress to the nearest waste station yourself. For Tallinn residents, handing over bulky waste (including mattresses) is free within certain limits, but the transport and loading are entirely your responsibility.

However, if you don't have suitable transport and don't want to drag a heavy and awkward mattress down the stairs, the most convenient solution is to order the Golog furniture taxi. Our loaders will come into your room, carry the mattress down, and dispose of it properly.
