Moving Tips

  1. 1A twin mattress is light enough for one person to carry on its side through doorways.
  2. 2For stairs, one person can carry a twin mattress by bending it slightly at the middle (foam types only).
  3. 3Use a mattress bag even for short moves — twin mattresses soil and tear easily due to their thin profile.
