Can I roll a queen mattress to fit in a Prius?

Only if it's an all-foam mattress (memory foam, latex). Roll it tightly, secure with ratchet straps, and bag it. The rolled diameter will be about 20", which fits in the Prius cargo area. Innerspring and hybrid mattresses cannot be safely rolled.

Will any queen mattress fit flat in a Prius?

No — a queen mattress is 60" × 80", and the Prius cargo area (seats folded) is about 65" × 41". The mattress exceeds the width. It can only fit if rolled or compressed.

Should I rent a truck instead?

For a queen mattress, renting a pickup truck or cargo van ($20–40 for 75 min from Home Depot/U-Haul) is usually the fastest and safest option. The mattress lays flat in the bed with no compression needed.

Whether it fits depends on measurements most people get wrong.

Key Measurement

Queen mattress width (60") vs. Prius cargo width (~41")

Standard Dimensions

Item: Queen mattress: 60" W × 80" L × 10–14" thick

Space: Toyota Prius cargo (seats folded): ~65" L × 41" W × 26" H

Actual clear openings are usually 1–2″ smaller than the labeled size.

Your exact dimensions probably aren't "standard." Small measurement errors cause big problems — 1 inch can be the difference between fitting and getting stuck.

Measure smart

What to measure.

Four numbers decide nearly every fit check. Get these right and the rest follows.

01Queen mattress dimensions — standard queen is 60" × 80" × 10–14" thick, which exceeds the cargo length of virtually all compact cars
02Compact car cargo length with seats folded — a Prius offers about 65" from the tailgate to the front seats with rears folded
03Hatch opening height and width — compact cars have hatch openings around 24–28" tall × 40–44" wide
04Mattress flexibility — foam and hybrid mattresses can be rolled or compressed with straps, reducing the 60" width to ~20" diameter when rolled

Common mistakes.

Most “it didn't fit” stories trace back to one of these oversights.

⚠Assuming a queen mattress will lay flat in any car — at 60" × 80", it exceeds the cargo dimensions of all compact cars and most midsize sedans
⚠Forgetting that innerspring mattresses cannot be rolled — only all-foam and some hybrid mattresses can safely be compressed for transport
⚠Not considering a mattress bag — even if you can squeeze it in, road grime, rain, and cargo area dirt will permanently stain an unbagged mattress
⚠Trying to drive with the hatch or trunk open — strapping a mattress half-in/half-out is dangerous and illegal in many jurisdictions
