2. Moving your bed and especially the mattress can be a difficult, stressful undertaking, especially if doing it on your own and have a Queen or King size monster to move. The best way is to use a Gold Coast van hire company to transport it and get a few friends to help with the lifting. Here’s how you can move your mattress and not have a nervous breakdown doing it:

3. Buy a mattress moving bag or a large tarpaulin that you can wrap the mattress in so it will not be damaged. Dragging a mattress on the ground will very quickly wear a hole in the edge or corner and this is almost impossible to fix satisfactorily

4. Get a few friends to help, a promise of a good pizza and a case of XXXX will go a long way to securing the help of a few friends for your move

5. Straps. Many mattresses do not have built-in straps or handles to hold when moving and it the mattress in wrapped or in a bag these would not be accessible so you need to have long straps you can wrap around the mattress to make convenient hand holds. This provides tie down points when securing it in the van

6. Folding the mattress. Find out if your mattress can be folded, usually, foam mattress can be folded unless they are memory foam and you cannot fold an innerspring mattress as they have a wooden internal frame

7. Storage bag. You need to have a small bag or container to place any screws or fittings you remove from the bed frame or base, they have a habit of being lost in a move

8. Trolley. See if you can place the mattress on a trolley to help with the move • Clothing. Make sure you have sensible clothing and shoes so you do not get caught up and trip while carrying the mattress • Van Hire. Usually, the best way to move an item as big as a mattress is by hire van on the Gold Coast, unless you have a mate with a vehicle the right size

9. The move • Once you have decided to make the move and have the necessary items to help to prepare the job, it will ensure it’s hassle free: • Place the mattress in the moving bag or wrap it securely and attach the straps • Clear the path you will take with the mattress making sure there are no obstructions in the way. If using a trolley see it the pathway is clear • Tie up the dog and have someone supervise the kids in a closed room

10. Don’t carry a mattress on top of your car unless you have a proper roof rack it could cause accidents or get you a ticket for unsafe driving. Moving a large mattress is best done with a few friends to help and using a good moving van, not on top of your car. Always wrap the mattress to avoid damage and attach moving straps for convenient hand holds. Never fold a memory foam mattress and try and move it flat.
