    Sorry if this is wrong forum, but could not find better. I have old bed with mattress to dispose, where can I dump them to be meet Irish environmental regulations, etc.? I can see every now and then some people dumping mattress by the local apartment/household bins, and they rot there for ages as binmen do not want to take them away, which is probably fair on their side. So I just wanted to do that properly, any ideas? I googled a bit but I am getting mostly American websites.

    Thanks.

    It must be the norm to just dump it at some convenient spot in your estate because that's what happens around here!

    Sellerbarry: thanks a mill, that is exactly what I was looking for, website looks familiar, no idea why I did not find it before myself :) THX :D

    Jack Presley: yeah, it makes me wonder who are those spanners dumping mattresses, christmas trees, etc. into estate bin area, what do these people think, santa claus is going to collect? That's the reason I asked. Thx.

    I know this thread is a bit old, but I just wanted to say thanks to paddyjameson for his recommendation of envirogreen. I was trying to get rid of an old mattress and I found them very helpful and reasonably priced. Thanks!

    I think the OP's mattress has bio degraded by now.
