Bring home an in box mattress

When you think about bringing a new mattress home, do you think about having to haul it in a truck or struggling to get it through a doorway? Thankfully, you can now choose an in box mattress. Beds in a box are much easier to have delivered, transport yourself, and set up in your bedroom.

What is a bed in a box?

A bed in a box is a memory foam mattress, gel foam mattress, or latex foam mattress that is compressed into a small package, wrapped in plastic, and shipped in a small box. The size of the box depends on the size of mattress you choose, but they are usually one quarter of the size of the mattress when unboxed.

Beds in a box are different than other mattresses with full coil support. They are made of foam or a hybrid mattress that is made up of foam with coils. Setting up beds in a box involves a different process than bringing in a standard mattress. With an in box mattress you’ll bring it inside to unbox it. Once you have the mattress in your room you’ll pull off the box, use a slicing tool or scissors to remove the plastic, place it on your bed, and let the compressed mattress resume its shape.

It takes a few hours to a few days for your mattress to completely decompress.

Does an in box mattress need a box spring?

Adding a box spring to an in box mattress is a matter of personal preference or is based on what type of bed frame you have. Some bed frames are too low or don’t have the necessary frame support for a mattress to be placed on its own. Other bed frames have full frame support so an in box mattress is enough on its own.

What are the benefits of an in box mattress?

Beds in a box can be shipped right to your door, and they are easy to move inside and unpack once they arrive. Because they arrive in a box you won’t need a lot of extra help to move the box inside and set it up, and in many cases, you can unbox it yourself.

Depending on what type of beds in a box you order, the lifespan of the mattress will vary. Some of the best mattress in a box models will last up to 10 years.
