It is illegal to sell any used mattress in any of 50 states.

That is the only piece of furniture can not be re-sold. it has to be disposed of.

You will see people offer it free with a bedroom set. Why in the world would you want a used mattress?

Who would buy a used mattress???? Bed bugs...bodily fluids....Yuck!!!!!!!!!! Just the thought creeps me out!

Dave Al-Bahrani would sell his blind mother a pair of glasses. He also sells used mattresses at his furniture shop in Ashland Wisconsin...he will sell u anything for a price.

You are correct. Mattresses can be donated to organizations that help the poor but never sold.

Of course it's legal to sell a used mattress! Depending on where you sell it and who you sell it to. What I mean buy that is you couldn't sell it legally in the black market and you can't sell a used mattress and tell the buyer that its a new one. But it would be fine if you were selling on Ebay, to a neighbour or friend etc Provided you do it in a legal way AND let the buyer know for sure that its been used, then it should be fine.

Not as long as you disclose that it is not being sold as "new." Also - there may be some health department regulations governing the sale of used bedding that you may have to comply with.

Is it legal to sell a used mattress in Virginia?

Only if you are trying to sell it as sanitized or unsoiled.I disagree. Look at 12 VAC 5-125-100 in the Virginia Administrative Code. Anyone selling a used mattress is supposed to have sanitized before the sale is even offered.Clarification: The law does regulate the sale of soiled mattresses, remarkably enough. However, the law cited does include various exemptions, such as estate sales, and individuals selling their own household items.Therefore, while a store must sanitize beddings and mattresses, the private individual selling his own mattress does not.
