HandUp has upcycled over 5,000 mattresses and boxsprings for continued use, diverting an additional 300,000+ pounds from the waste stream.
How are the mattresses selected to be upcycled?
A select few of the mattresses we collect still have years of sleep ahead of them; in fact, many were returned within 3 months of purchase so they no longer can be sold as "new". Upcycling these mattresses, for resale, is a win for our customers and a win for the environment.
How do we clean and sanitize the mattresses?
We use industry-leading standards and comply with all state of MA regulations to thoroughly sanitize and clean each mattress and box spring. This ensures that you can sleep worry-free in your new bed! Check out how we clean and upcycle below!
Quality Mattresses at an Affordable Price
By upcycling we are able to offer our customers gently used high-quality mattresses and box springs, from the leading brands and manufacturers, at a fraction of the retail price - good for your pocketbook while also extending the life of these mattresses and keeping them out of landfills. The earth thanks you for this!
Please come by the HandUp Resale Store, at 229 Coffin Avenue, New Bedford, MA 02744. We are in the old Sunbeam Bread Building.
