About this deal
Our scientific information, conclusions, and analysis are always supported by at least one reputable source.

Your mattress should lie flat on the floor for this step as it is better for compressing your mattress evenly to prevent damage to the foam. You can use either duct tape or packing tape to reinforce the edges of the plastic bag and help secure the rolled-up mattress. Look for mattress bags with valves on them that you can use with the hose attachment of your vacuum.
As part of our larger circular journey and transition from virgin fossil based material, we are working hard to change all plastic in our home furnishing products to plastic made from recycled and/or renewable raw materials.

However, we suggest unpacking your re-compressed mattress within a couple of weeks, or ideally, as soon as possible, to minimize the risk of damage.

We may link to news articles or peer-reviewed medical blog posts about studies when appropriate, but always attempt to connect directly to the studies these pages discuss. Note: Before purchasing a VacuFlat Mattress Bag, please check with your mattress manufacturer to ensure that compressing and storing your mattress in a VacuFlat Mattress Bag will not void its warranty.
