Even the highest quality custom mattress requires care and maintenance. While you’ll need to replace it at some point in time, taking steps to protect its integrity can help it last longer and ensure many nights of restful sleep. Here’s how to ensure the longevity of your bed.

How to Help Your Mattress Last Longer

1. Rotate It Frequently

Since you sleep in the same spot nightly, that area is more susceptible to experiencing premature wear and may develop a telltale dip over time. Get into the habit of rotating the mattress regularly so it wears evenly. Doing so at the start of every season is one way to commit to this practice.

2. Clean It Regularly

Although it’s covered with bedding, your custom mattress should still be cleaned to prevent the accumulation of common contaminants, like dust mites, sweat, body oils, and other particulates.

When buildup lives on the mattress, it leaves you more vulnerable to developing allergic reactions that affect your quality of life and ability to rest. Vacuuming the surface is an easy way to minimize these pollutants and improve your indoor air quality.

3. Avoid Bed Jumping

If you have children, be mindful of their tendency to jump on the bed. Since this action puts unexpected stress on different parts of your custom mattress, it leaves springs, foam, and bed frames more likely to develop premature wear. Slow structural damage could include broken coil pockets, as well as fabric and stitch tares. The less undue strain on the material, the longer the mattress will last.
