About this item
Air mattresses are usually made from soft plastic or rubber and do not belong in plastic packaging. Small air mattresses without electronics can often go in residual waste if they fit the bin. Larger inflatable beds or mattresses with built-in pumps should go to a recycling centre. Electric pumps are electronic waste.
