Storing mattresses in self-storage
How to protect your bedding properly
Whether you are moving house, renovating or simply want to create more space, storing mattresses is often a challenge that should not be underestimated. Mattresses are bulky, sensitive to moisture and dust, and improper storage can lead to damage. With the right tips and a secure storage solution such as self-storage at STORE ROOM, you can optimally protect your mattress and extend its lifespan.
Why store a mattress correctly?
Mattresses are an investment in your sleeping comfort, and high-quality models can last for many years – provided they are well cared for and stored. However, improper storage can cause them to absorb moisture, develop unpleasant odors or lose their shape. With self-storage, you can store your mattress safely and securely without it taking up space at home.
5 tips for storing your mattress correctly
Cleaning the mattress
Before you put your mattress into storage, you should clean it thoroughly. Remove stains with a mild detergent and allow the mattress to dry completely to prevent the formation of mold and odors.
Use protective cover
Wrap your mattress in a special protective mattress cover or a breathable fabric cover. These covers protect against dust, dirt and moisture. Important: Avoid plastic wrap as it can trap moisture, which could lead to mold.
Store mattress horizontally
Always store the mattress lying flat to prevent the springs or foam from deforming. Setting the mattress upright can cause it to lose its structure or become permanently damaged.
Temperature-controlled storage room
Mattresses are sensitive to temperature fluctuations and humidity. Therefore, store them in a temperature-controlled storage room such as STORE ROOM, where the environment remains constantly dry and temperate.
Protect mattress from pressure
Do not place any heavy objects on the mattress while it is in storage. The additional weight can permanently deform the surface and affect the quality of sleeping comfort.
