AC Trash Hauling & More Can Handle Your Challenge

Matress Removal — Noblesville, IN — AC Trash Hauling & More

We frequently field the question, “Can you haul away a mattress?” The answer is an immediate yes.

Many people are misinformed about mattresses and the ability to either donate or dispose of them. Let us clear the air, at least from our perspective.

Donations

Most donation centers such at Salvation Army, Goodwill, St. Vincent de Paul, will not accept mattress. They have some very legitimate reasons for their actions. Used mattresses can and do carry with them certain health risks, the most prominent is Bed Bugs. However we should not forget the presence of other bacteria that accumulates regardless. The extent of which is always subject to debate.  Covid 19 has placed greater concerns on the reuse of mattresses. No one wants to be responsible for spreading this virus.

 This link, https://www.livescience.com/33097-does-your-mattress-really-gain-weight-over-time-.html, one of many available on the internet sheds some light on the topic. By no means are we suggesting that this is the definitive site and answer.

Covid 19 has placed greater concerns on the reuse of mattresses. No one wants to be responsible for spreading this virus.

Recycling

There are facilities throughout the United States that recycle mattresses. Locations with a high volume of traffic are good relocation sites. Think about the volume of people that visit the numerous sites associated with Disney and other resorts. They are more likely to recycle mattresses than the hotel along the interstate in the Mid-West. That said, there are no viable recycle centers in our service area, Metro-Indianapolis.

Landfills

Unfortunately the most used location for old mattresses is at the local landfill. Mattresses present a challenge as they are big, bulky, and take up a lot of space in the locate landfill. They also create a challenge at any “Trash Burning” facility as the springs internal to the mattresses can cause problems with the automated systems used to transfer the debris to the furnaces and the ashes back out.


Illegal Dumping

Sadly, too many people opt to dispose of their mattresses under the cloak of darkness in a dark, alley, behind a dumpster, or in the local corn field.  This my friends is a despicable solution!!!


Burning

Believe it or not, some people, will collect mattresses and burn them. Their intent is to burn away the padding etc. and salvage the springs and metal pieces. These are obviously not legitimate businesses.


In light of all of this, AC Trash Hauling & More will pick up and legally dispose of your mattress and box spring. We are a phone call or text away at 317-690-6810 or a click on your computer at www.ACTrashHauling.com.

Good luck!!

Surcharges, Convenience Fees… and Why We Don’t Use Them You’ve probably seen them before: surcharges, convenience fees, service charges. They show up on bills and receipts everywhere these days. While they may go by different names, they all boil down to the same thing—extra charges added after the fact. A surcharge is usually a percentage added to your bill, most often when you pay with a credit card. It’s meant to cover the processing fees charged by card companies. A convenience fee is typically a flat amount charged for using a certain payment option or service—like paying online instead of in person. Here’s the thing… Let’s Be Honest We’re moving fast toward a cashless world . Most of us pay for almost everything with a debit or credit card. Groceries, gas, coffee, trash service—you name it. Do you really think businesses haven’t already built card processing costs into their prices? Of course they have. Processing fees usually run around 3%. From a business standpoint, we’d rather take a $100 payment and pay a few dollars in processing fees than not make the sale at all. Those costs are part of doing business—and yes, they’ve already been factored in. On top of that, many customers are paying far more in credit card interest than the processing fee itself. And About “Service Charges”… Once they show up, they almost never go away. Fuel surcharges are a great example. Fuel goes up, the charge increases. Fuel comes down… but the charge stays. That just doesn’t sit right with us. Our Approach at AC Trash Hauling We don’t add surcharges. We don’t charge convenience fees. And we don’t tack on service charges. If our costs go up, we’re upfront about it. We adjust our prices instead of sneaking in extra fees. No fine print. No surprises. That’s how we believe business should be done. We’d love to hear your thoughts. Feel free to share your comments—we’re always open to the conversation.
