Vacuum sealing and moving king sized Casper mattress

  • I moved across the country with my Casper bed. What seemed overwhelming at first was simply solved with a shop vac, tape, and seal-able mattress bag. Very easy, took minutes to do.
    We first cleaned up the mattress then put it in the bag. We decided to add shipping tape to it on the sides to make sure it was super sealed. We cut a small hole to fit the tube of the vacuum in and tape around that. Make sure you dont tape too aggressively because youll want to get the tube out and off in a quick manor to seal it up again.

    Just wanna say THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video! I compressed my queen sized memory foam mattress all by myself using my regular-degular $35 vacuum lol! The trick for me was to tape the rolled mattress really well while the vacuum was still running and then slide it into a smaller twin sized mattress bag. Then I taped the twin sized bag really tight around the queen and it helped the queen hold it's shrunken shape for a week! I would've never even tried it if it hadn't been for this video, I still can't believe it actually worked, you guys are lifesavers!

    Followed your instructions.Thank you! Used shopvac. Had to roll a latex queen PlushBed and put it back on delivery box. Took a ton of brute strength to roll b/c the plastic bag around the mattress got very stiff, but we were able to squeeze and push to get it back in the 16" square opening w/ 21" diagonal 64" length box. For us, we did not master the removal of the shop vac hose from the opening, so beware it re-inflates (puffs out) w/ air quickly. Kept the shopvac running all through the rolling. All-n-all, probably deflated for 25 min, first 5 min did 90% of deflating, but had to keep trying. In the end, went from 9" (2 latex med/firm) w/ 3/4 mattress cover to 3 1/4" super stiff piece. ps.

    Did this with a Tempurpedic king size mattress and was able to easily fit it in a 9 ft. UHaul van. it was about a 2' circumference when done. Used an industrial shopvac, took about 1/2 hr. Suggest that you roll it, tape it using duct tape, THEN remove the shopvac hose and carefully retape the hole, in that order. The mattress was rolled and taped for 2 days with no damage whatsoever to the mattress. Many thanks!

    That's dope. I just bought a king setup & I can disassemble the platform & box spring I bought. (90% metal with screws) But a king mattress is not moving friendly. I figured if the manufacturer can vac seal it, that it can be done again. But they also could have some industrial sealer to make that happen. But now seeing u do it with a 20 dollar bag and a wet vac makes me feel much much better. I have seen so many ceilings, hand rails and walls destroyed by moving large mattresses. This is great. My wife & i were so worried we would destroy this appartment or the mattress when we move. Thanks.

Especially because, by the time we move, our mattress will barely be a year old (poor planning on our part, lol) - how did you (elise and sarah) find your mattress was after the fact? Did it sustain any damage during the move that you realized after you arrived and unpacked it?

    Really appreciate this video! This worked for my Purple mattresses. However, the UHaul “retailers” only had Chateau mattress bags and they are terrible. I had to patch 30 holes because the store’s entire stock had a manufacturing defect. I found better bags at Lowes’s. The Blue Hawk mattress covers are perfect! A real UHaul store will probably have better bags but the smaller retailers may not.

    i think thats why they come in a tube of plastic so once the air is out instead of taping they just sleeve it into a pipe of whatever the bag is made of so it's got nowhere to expand too.. tape would work just use heaps of it. oh and clean your vacuum out before you do it.. dirty filter will take alot of power. clean the container clean filter. :D way more power.

    Well.. I just tried that and it kinda worked. Thanks very much for your video tho.
    Lemme tell you my experience, I got a sealable bag from u-haul.
    I did the vacuum thing and everything worked perfectly... until... I disconnected the vacuum, and notice it didn't sealed completely. So it was starting to get its original shape again. I tried to put tape all over to prevent but it didn't work either. I got a ratchet kit and kinda solved it. It's not as small as I wanted but way better than before.
    I would reccomend getting a better (stronger) bag .
    Thanks again!

      jokerimmortal I noticed the same thing and put the vacuum hose back on. With the hose still on, I rolled up the mattress and strapped everything down real tight. Once that was all done, I got my tape ready, pulled the vacuum hose out and taped up the small hole. Just my 2 cents, if you have to do it again.
