Hello Peter,
I've read a lot of hearsay concerning moving our type of mattress. It's a Simmons Beautyrest King Hybrid, firm type of mattress (exact model I can't access at the moment).
We're trying to be as frugal as possible in moving from Boston to Los Angeles, and with the size shipping container we are getting the mattress can only be stored on its side.
Lots of things say that it can damage the mattress to move it on its side, however I have also read that if it is boxed up properly (structured) it can be transported on its side as long as it is for a short time?
Forgive me if you have answered this before, I tried searching your site but couldn't find this exact issue.
The shipping will be about a week in transit, so I'm wondering if this is a short enough time for the mattress to be on its side without damage?
Thanks, Dean
Hi Dean,
Yes. A week is a short enough time.
Bag it and box it before shipping.
Thanks, Pete
