BedInABox® and One Tree Planted

Not only have we introduced a deluxe, eco-friendly mattress to our sleep product selection, but we have also partnered with One Tree Planted, a 501(c)3 non-profit environmental organization based in Vermont that focuses on global reforestation.

BedInABox® donates a percentage of every sale to One Tree Planted’s global reforestation projects in order to plant these trees worldwide.

  • Extended landfill life
  • Reduced pollution associated with extraction of virgin materials
  • Spared resources for future use

By recycling your old mattress, you are converting it from waste into new, useful products. A program that orchestrates mattress recycling in several states is the ByeByeMattress program. We work with this program with the goal to collect and deconstruct old mattresses and box springs to later repurpose them, versus the alternative – incinerating them as waste products. The ByeByeMattress initiative is overseen by the Mattress Recycling Council® (MRC), the consumer-facing identity for a nonprofit organization responsible for collecting and recycling discarded mattresses and box springs in various states through statewide collection and recycling networks. The program operates and is administered through funding via visible costs to consumers - in Connecticut, for example, a Recycling Fee set by the state is $9.00 - and other purchasers of products sold in the state. This fee is specific to each state’s recycling program, and ultimately funds the ByeByeMattress operation.

As you can see, BedInABox® is the future of the bedding industry. Our mattresses are made with care, and are designed to respond intelligently to both the environment and the people sleeping on them. We try to do our part by considering our environmental impact and being conscious about the nature of our materials, both in production and disposal. Now it’s time to do your part by investing in affordable, more sustainable sleep with our Eco-Lux®. Not only is the Eco-Lux® produced responsibly with renewable, plant-derived ingredients, but is also worth the value of a newly planted tree. Now that you know the many benefits of our Eco-Lux® mattress, you can make an informed and environmentally conscious decision by purchasing one today.

The goal is to collect and dismantle used mattresses and box springs so they can be used again instead of being burned as waste. Programs for recycling mattresses are usually financed by simple fees charged to consumers and other purchasers of products supplied in the state. For instance, Connecticut charges $9.00 for recycling, a cost that goes toward funding these recycling programs.

The quality of the atmosphere in your bedroom can be significantly improved by adding indoor plants. Since plants release oxygen into the atmosphere and absorb volatile organic chemicals like ammonia and benzene, plants are natural air cleaners. By eliminating pollutants from the air, this procedure improves its quality, helps people stay healthier, and eventually results in more peaceful sleep. In addition to creating a tranquil mood, having plants in your bedroom helps to maintain a cleaner, fresher atmosphere, which makes for a more restorative night's sleep.
