soft landing'S objectives


EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES

Providing access to sustainable employment and training can result in improved economic wellbeing, better social, physical and mental health, reduced substance abuse, more secure housing and less abuse and neglect – outcomes that help build a safe, productive community.


protecting the environment

Salvaging metal, foam and timber from mattresses diverts thousands of tonnes of waste from landfill annually.
Every 10 tonne of materials is equivalent to:

  • Taking four cars off the road permanently.
  • Providing enough electricity to annually power 14.5 households.
  • Saving enough water to fill 3.5 average backyard pools.


SUSTAINABILITY

Soft Landing works with councils across each state to overcome illegal dumping, as well as servicing residents and our retail and manufacturing partners.






HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?


Prices vary between location and whether you choose to drop off or have your mattress collected.
You can view the prices at the Soft Landing website here.



WHAT CAN I DO WITH MY MATTRESS IF SOFT LANDING IS NOT AVAILABLE IN MY AREA?

Some local councils offer mattress collections. If your local council doesn’t offer this service your local Sleeping Giant store may be able to arrange mattress removal for you. Please check with your local store to see if they can assist.
