Don’t Let Your Mattress Turn Into a Moving Monster!

Marketing Manager from Beds4U - Whangarei

Hey neighbours,

Moving house? Don’t wrestle with your mattress like it’s a wild animal! Big, awkward, and easy to damage, it needs a little strategy - and maybe a friend or two.

Top tips to move like a pro:

1. Measure & clear your path - no doorway dramas.
2. Grab a buddy - teamwork makes it a breeze.
3. Lift smart - bend your knees, not your back!
4. Wrap it up - blankets, plastic, or cardboard protect it along the way.

Want all the expert hacks? Check out: beds4u.co.nz...

P.S. If it’s time for a new mattress, our Boxing Day sale is the perfect excuse to upgrade your sleep while you move!

Happy moving, neighbours! Here’s to a smooth move and many nights of comfy sleep in your new home.
