    Does anyone know what's the best way of getting rid of an old mattress?

    Mungret recycle centre is hardly an option here, I'd say?

    They probably take them, it's €20 per mattress in most depots that take them. Check their website to see the list of what they take.

    There very expensive out there. €1 a litre for used oil. You would nearly buy it new for that price. Bet there's many a litre gone down the drain with that price

    I'm nearly certain that Mungret take them - I was there about a month ago and I remember seeing them there.

    If you're getting a new mattress delivered, some places will take back the old one for a minimal fee.

    Not bad, they are €20 for a double in Clare, not sure if base is included!

    could be open to haggling if there's no box spring and end up just being €5 if it goes in the boot of the car.

    doubles are always needed by landlords. did u try gumtree? or jumbletown?
    Singles are very hard to get rid.
