Protecting your mattress

Transport your mattress with care

Transport your mattress with care

Whenever you move your mattress, even just to another room, carry it carefully. Never bend or twist your mattress as this can damage the internal structure – carry it flat or on its side.

Never stand or jump on a mattress

However tempting it may be, especially if you’re changing a lightbulb, never stand on or allow children to jump on your mattress. Excess concentrated weight and movement can permanently damage a mattress’s internal structure.
Avoid sitting on the edge of your mattress

Avoid sitting on the edge of your mattress

Many mattresses have firmer springs along their sides. Known as edge support, it’s not intended to make your bed easier to sit on as this can damage the springs, so avoid putting your socks on while sitting on the bed.
Always use a mattress protector

Always use a mattress protector

A mattress protector does more than make your mattress more comfortable and better insulated. It can also help keep it free of stains and reduce the number of dust mites in your bed – a must if you suffer from allergies.

Consider using under-mattress padding

Consider using under-mattress padding

Using thick padding or an extra mattress protector placed over the slats of your bed frame will help reduce wear and tear on the underside of your mattress and protect its cover. This is especially important if yours is a turnable two-sided mattress.
