What South Shore Customers Are Saying
Our Founder Story
South Shore Recycle was founded with a simple mission — to make mattress removal in Boston and surrounding metro areas easier, more responsible, and environmentally conscious. After seeing how many mattresses were being discarded in alleys and landfills across the region, our founder recognized the need for a service that could handle removal efficiently while prioritizing recycling and sustainability.
South Shore Recycle provides reliable curbside pick up services designed for the diverse housing landscape across Boston and its metro communities.
From the beginning, the goal has been to help residents and businesses dispose of unwanted mattresses responsibly while reducing landfill waste and supporting cleaner neighborhoods throughout Boston and the surrounding metro area. Today, South Shore Recycle continues to grow while staying committed to dependable service, professional teams, and environmentally responsible recycling practices.
Our Journey
South Shore Recycle began with a simple goal — to provide residents in Boston and surrounding metro areas with a reliable and responsible way to remove and recycle old mattresses. What started as a small local service quickly grew as more people recognized the need for eco-friendly disposal and professional removal solutions.
Over time, our team has expanded our capabilities, improved our equipment, and built a reputation for dependable service across Boston’s neighborhoods and nearby South Shore communities. Today, South Shore Recycle continues to help homes, apartments, and businesses remove unwanted mattresses while promoting cleaner communities and more sustainable recycling practices.

How Mattress Recycling Works
A standard mattress contains a variety of recyclable materials, including steel springs, foam padding, fabric, and wood components. When mattresses are thrown away, they take up significant landfill space and can take many years to fully break down.
Through our recycling partners, each mattress is carefully dismantled so its materials can be reused. During this process, the different components are separated and prepared for new purposes:
Steel coils and springs are recovered and recycled into new metal products
Foam and cushioning materials are repurposed into carpet underlay, insulation, and pet bedding
Textiles and fibers are processed for use in industrial materials
Wood pieces are chipped and reused for biomass energy or recycled wood products
By recycling these materials, a large portion of each mattress can be recovered and reused. This helps reduce landfill waste, conserve natural resources, and support more sustainable waste management practices.
