Your old mattress, a second life, thanks to Valumat.
We recommend replacing your mattress every 10 years for the sake of hygiene and to maintain optimal support. However, this also means you'll need to figure out what to do with your old mattress every decade. Simply throwing it on the waste pile is an option, but neither we nor our planet will be happy with that. Recycling is the way to go! We’d love to tell you more about it:
Recycle your old mattress with De Nachtwacht & Valumat: Sustainable and easy!
At De Nachtwacht, we not only strive for ultimate sleep comfort but also for a sustainable future. That’s why we partner with Valumat, an organization responsible for recycling old mattresses in Belgium.
Did you know that when purchasing a new mattress, you are required to pay an environmental fee? This contribution supports Valumat in the eco-friendly recycling of your old mattress. Up to 90% of the materials can be reused, contributing to a circular economy where resources are repurposed and waste is reduced. This helps to minimize the environmental footprint of discarded mattresses and ensures that valuable materials do not end up in landfills.
Wij nemen jouw oude matras gratis mee!
At De Nachtwacht, we make it even easier for you. We offer a unique service: when we deliver your new bed or mattress, we take your old one with us for free. This way, you don’t have to worry about getting your old mattress to a recycling point and can simply enjoy your new mattress!
