Sleep soundly knowing you have a zero-waste, beneficial reuse partner to manage your worn mattresses. As a Responsible Care Partner on the cutting edge of clean, green technology, SGS Recovery recycles over 80,000 tons of waste annually.
Go Guaranteed Green
As an SGS Recovery Partner, waste streams are beneficially reused for other materials, products, and our revolutionary alternative fuel. Mattresses consume up to 30 cubic feet of space and can take centuries to degrade in landfills. Make sure your worn box springs and mattresses are handled responsibly and beneficially through the proprietary Guaranteed Green solution at SGS Recovery.
Why Manage Mattresses with SGS?
Your business can sleep easier knowing that your used bed mattresses are put to better use. SGS Recovery transforms your waste into vital resources that help to reduce pollution, extend the life of existing landfills, and much more.
Your Mattresses Serve a Greater Repurpose
More than 75% of a mattress can be recycled instead of taking up precious landfill space. Here’s how:
Fabric and fibers are shredded and used primarily as alternative fuel sources.
Foam padding is also separated and shredded primarily for reuse as alternative fuel and sometimes absorbent materials.
Steel springs are recycled as scrap and used to make new materials.
Wooden frames of box springs are shredded and burned as a cleaner, alternative fuel source as well as a variety of other product applications.
