Mattress and bed base disposal
MattressesGlenfield Waste Services takes mattresses and bed bases over the weighbridge at Glenfield, charged per item rather than by weight. No booking, no minimum load — bring one or a ute full.
For households clearing a bedroom and for removalists and landlords with several at once.
What we take
Accepted- Mattresses of any size, single through king
- Bed bases and ensemble bases
- Sprung, foam and pillow-top construction
Bed frames are not mattresses. A timber frame is timber, charged by weight on its own line rather than per item. A metal frame is not one of the published streams at all — ring the gatehouse before you load one, rather than assuming it travels with the mattress.
What it costs
Weighbridge- Rate
- $100 per unit
Charged per unit, not by weight, so the price is the same whatever it weighs and you know the cost before you load.
Rates include GST.
Bringing it in
On the dayBring them as they are — nothing needs stripping, bagging or dismantling. Load them flat or on edge and tie the load down; a mattress catches the wind badly on the highway.
Mon–Fri 6:30am – 4:00pm · Closed weekends & public holidays. The last load of the day must be tipped and off the weighbridge by 4:00pm. Arrive with enough time to weigh in, tip and weigh out before then — the gate cannot take a load that would still be on the bridge at close.
Within opening hours — Mon–Fri, closed public holidays.
What we can never take
RefusedThese materials are never accepted, in any quantity. Some other streams are accepted only project by project rather than as walk-in loads, which is a different answer — the fee schedule sets out the terms for those.

- Hazardous waste
- Medical waste
- Liquid waste
- Dangerous goods (gas bottles and similar)
- Tyres
- Oils, paints and liquids
- Batteries
