If you're looking for a place to store your mattresses, Red
Hills Storage is here to help. But before you store your mattress, it's
important to take the proper steps to ensure it stays clean and undamaged. Here
are some tips on how to properly store your mattress in self-storage.
Clean Your Mattress: Before storing your mattress, make sure
it is completely clean and dry. Vacuum the surface to remove any dust or dirt
and use a fabric cleaner to remove any stains. Make sure the mattress is
completely dry before packing it away, as moisture can lead to mold or mildew.
Protect Your Mattress: Once your mattress is clean and dry,
place it in a specialized mattress bag to protect it from dust and other
environmental factors. These bags are made of breathable materials that allow
air to circulate while keeping out dust and dirt.
Store Your Mattress Flat: When storing your mattress, always
keep it flat. Storing a mattress on its side can cause it to warp or become
misshapen over time. If you must store your mattress on its side, prop it up
against a wall to prevent it from bending.
Avoid Heavy Items: When packing your storage unit, avoid
stacking heavy items on top of your mattress. This can cause the mattress to
compress, which can damage the springs and foam.
Elevate Your Mattress: It's a good idea to elevate your
mattress off the ground by placing it on pallets or risers. This will help to
keep it clean and dry and prevent damage from ground moisture.
By following these simple tips, you can ensure that your
mattress stays clean and undamaged while in self-storage. When you're ready to
store your mattress, choose Red Hills Storage for all your self-storage needs.
