Overview
This page prices mattress and bed disposal for Hayes UB3 specifically: inter-war stock, 33% privately rented and 14,482 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Hillingdon permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
Step 1
Single through super king, mattress only or with the base, and whether there is a lift. That is enough for a fixed price with no change on the day.
Step 2
The gate fee for a mattress is higher than ordinary bulky waste because it cannot be compacted, so this is shown as its own line rather than folded into a vague total.
Step 3
Divan bases and bunk frames come apart where they will not pass a stair turn or a communal lift door whole.
Step 4
The mattress is wrapped before it leaves the room, protecting the stairwell and keeping the load hygienic for the crew and for you.
Step 5
Taken to a site permitted to strip mattresses for scrap steel and foam recycling, with the transfer note emailed the same day.
Why choose us
Two crew and a Luton on a standard mattress and base; the same crew dismantles bunk frames and storage divans on site before the carry. New blocks need booked lifts and bays; older streets have driveways and canal bridges.
Same-week across every borough, with next-day slots common where a new mattress delivery is already booked and the old one has to be out of the room first. Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line) is the nearest station, so a UB3 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick — and with 33% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does in UB3, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — which is why London Borough of Hillingdon kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Registered waste carrier. Mattresses go to a permitted site that strips springs for scrap steel and foam for recycling rather than a standard landfill cell, and a waste transfer note is issued for every collection.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single mattress, any type | £45 | 20–30 min | Mattresses do not compact, so the van still fills at the same rate as a much bulkier item — the tip charges a flat gate fee per mattress regardless of size. |
| Double or king mattress | £55 | 20–30 min | A wider mattress needs two carriers on most stairwells rather than one, which is the labour cost behind the size step. |
| Divan base or bed frame, per item | £40 | 20–30 min | Divan bases are often heavier than the mattress on top and usually need unscrewing from the headboard first. |
| Mattress and base together | £75 | 30–45 min | Priced as a pair rather than two singles, since both come off the same room in the same carry. |
| Bunk bed or divan with drawers, dismantled | £90 | 40–60 min | Bunk frames and storage divans have to be taken apart before they will fit through a standard door or down a stair turn. |
| Multiple mattress collection, 3+ units | £35/item | By volume | Discounted per unit for landlords, letting agents and student blocks clearing several rooms in one visit. |

The guys arrived prompt at 9 am . Sorry I’m rubbish at names but I remember the one guys initials were AB . He really worked hard . Both guys were very polite and were happy to pop back up the stairs to finish dusting the bedrooms surfaces that were missed . Not one moan… Read in full →
The cleaners Constantin and arrived in time and never stopped until the work was completed to the best of their ability. I would recommend a more upgraded carpet cleaner as I was hoping for a hot steam cleaner to penetrate areas or heavy foot traffic on the carpet. They never gave up until the look… Read in full →

Working in Hayes
Walk Hayes from The former EMI factory at Blyth Road outwards and the inter-war pattern is obvious: 34% of the 14,482 households in UB3 live in flats, 66% in houses.
33% of households rent privately and 45% own, which is why mattress and bed disposal demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Hayes substrates run to some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick — and with 33% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — which is why London Borough of Hillingdon kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the mistake that costs a UB3 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Hayes knows the pattern near The former EMI factory at Blyth Road: the old EMI works, the canal and a town centre transformed by the Elizabeth line. We plan the UB3 visit around it. Hayes is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: new blocks need booked lifts and bays; older streets have driveways and canal bridges. Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line) is the nearest station, and two crew and a Luton on a standard mattress and base; the same crew dismantles bunk frames and storage divans on site before the carry.

Single mattress, any type starts at £45 in Hayes across UB3, with Hillingdon parking rules in play, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Mattress size and whether the base comes too on the streets near The former EMI factory at Blyth Road, then the floor it sits on. A mattress cannot be compacted in the van on UB3 jobs, with this being London Borough of Hillingdon territory — and 21% one-person households here, so the tip gate fee is charged per unit rather than by volume — that is why the price step between sizes is smaller than on other bulky items.
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions in Hayes, with 66% of Hayes homes being houses. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Hayes most weeks for Hayes (UB3) addresses, with The former EMI factory at Blyth Road a few streets away.
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level around Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line), with The former EMI factory at Blyth Road a few streets away.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on UB3 jobs. With 34% of Hayes homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm around Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line), with 21% one-person households here — and 33% of UB3 homes being privately rented, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Registered waste carrier. Mattresses go to a permitted site that strips springs for scrap steel and foam for recycling rather than a standard landfill cell on UB3 jobs — and 66% of Hayes homes being houses, with 22% social-rented stock nearby, and a waste transfer note is issued for every collection. That paperwork is what most Hillingdon letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat on this side of Hillingdon, with 33% of UB3 homes being privately rented.
Mattresses soaked through with bodily fluid contamination requiring a biohazard route rather than standard disposal; Bed bug or pest-infested mattresses, which need pest control treatment before collection can proceed safely; Fitting or assembling a replacement bed around Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line) — and a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood, which is booked separately as a flat-pack or bed-assembly visit; Structural bed frames fixed to the wall or floor, with this being London Borough of Hillingdon territory, which need a joiner rather than a clearance crew. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Hayes UB3 price you agree is the price you pay in Hayes, with a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood.
All three. With 33% of Hayes privately rented and 45% owner-occupied, roughly half the UB3 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door in Hayes — and a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood, with 21% one-person households here.
