How to properly pack your mattress by using mattress cover for moving

Because of its size, weight, and the possibility that it will arrive at its destination ripped or stained, the mattress is one of the items in the home that presents the greatest challenge when it comes time to relocate. Because of this, it is in your best interest to let trained personnel handle the transportation of your bedroom set. If, on the other hand, you choose to handle the relocation on your own, we will provide you mattress cover for moving in which you can pack and move it properly.

Advice to keep your mattress in good condition during the move

Cover the bed with mattress bags.

Protecting the mattress from dirt and moisture is essential by covering it with mattress bags. Doing so will ensure that the mattress remains in good condition. If the mattress becomes wet at any point, it is imperative to air it out and allow it to dry completely before using it again to prevent mold growth.

After the entire top surface of the mattress has been covered with mattress bags (also make sure that the seams and corners are properly sealed), it is in your best interest to avoid dragging it to the moving truck while you are moving.

Keep the mattress from moving around while it's being transported.

During the moving process, you should take every precaution to ensure that the mattress does not move to reduce the risk of causing scrapes or bumps. To achieve this, you can reinforce the corners and sides of the mattress by placing cardboard sheets along the edges, placing blankets underneath the mattress, or positioning the mattress in between two pieces of furniture are all viable options. In the second scenario, it would be helpful to reinforce them with adhesive tape so they would not move while transported.

It is not permitted to move the mattress outside.

 

We strongly suggest you transport the mattress inside a closed vehicle and steer clear of the common practice of transporting it by placing it on the car's roof. However, if this is not possible, you should at least ensure that your sleeping arrangements are protected from the elements and plan to move in on a dry day.

Avoid folding the mattress at any point during the trip.

It is imperative that the mattress not be folded at any point during the journey and that no weight be placed on it. This is especially true if the interior of the mattress features springs. Additionally, it is suggested that you move it into an upright position.

 

In conclusion, 

To prevent any injuries, we strongly advise that the mattress be loaded, unloaded, and moved by a minimum of two people. If you'd rather save time, effort, and headaches during your move, come to Britwrap, where we can provide you with the best available prices for your mattress cover for moving.
