Hi all,

We have that firm Night Therapy king mattress from Sam's that we only used for a few weeks while we determined what to buy longer term for our master. Our guest room is a nice queen bed frame, so would rather just leave as is.

So, I have a firm king mattress only to re-home. Ideas?

I called St. Vincent DePaul and other donation centers- none take mattresses. Sleep Experts makes you take it to their warehouse a good distance away, they dont pick up. Not sure I want random people coming in my house if I put in on Craigslist for free.

Other ideas how to find this mattress a new home quickly? It's in perfectly good shape. We're just not using it and it's not exactly convenient to store a king sized mattress!

Thanks!

For anyone else, just join "freecycle.com" to get rid of most anything that someone migh want for free.  I've given away used beds, tires, desks, and even an old rabbit hutch!  There are local chapters in most areas.  It works!
