Despite this, so many people struggle with aches and pains or a poor night\u2019s sleep when their mattress isn\u2019t providing the correct level of support needed. Keeping a mattress in its best possible condition is paramount for getting the most out of it. The best way to do this is to turn, flip or rotate it (providing your mattress can do so). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We would recommend turning \/ flipping \/ rotating your mattress once every 3 months to keep it at optimal performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In simple terms, the reason your mattress needs regularly turning is to keep the fillings within evenly distributed. Further to this, flipping \/ rotating your mattress means that each side is slept on in equal measure, extending and improving its lifespan and performance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>It is important to always check the manufacturer\u2019s instructions regarding your mattress &#8211; if it is suitable for being rotated or flipped and how often they recommend doing so.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:26px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" data-id=\"1033\" src=\"https:\/\/www.landofbeds.co.uk\/help-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Mattress-Protectors-Help-Keep-A-Bed-Clean.jpg\" alt=\"A pair of hands belonging to a woman picking up a mattress for rotating from a bed base\" class=\"wp-image-1033\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.landofbeds.co.uk\/help-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Mattress-Protectors-Help-Keep-A-Bed-Clean.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.landofbeds.co.uk\/help-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Mattress-Protectors-Help-Keep-A-Bed-Clean-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 800px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" data-id=\"88\" src=\"https:\/\/www.landofbeds.co.uk\/help-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/closeup-happy-family-touching-mattress-store-small-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Close up of a Happy Family Touching a Mattress \" class=\"wp-image-88\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.landofbeds.co.uk\/help-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/closeup-happy-family-touching-mattress-store-small-980x654.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.landofbeds.co.uk\/help-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/closeup-happy-family-touching-mattress-store-small-480x321.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:26px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-are-the-main-reasons-for-turning-rotating-flipping-my-mattress\"><strong>What Are The Main Reasons For Turning \/ Rotating \/ Flipping My Mattress?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:26px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The majority of us opt to sleep on the same spot in bed each night, which means that over time that particular part of the mattress will wear. As a result, those who aren&#8217;t flipping or rotating their mattress will find it wearing unevenly.

Single sided mattresses, such as memory foam ones for example, can not be flipped, but still rotated. The reason they can&#8217;t be flipped is simple &#8211; the underside is not suitable for sleeping on. Regardless of the type of mattress you have, you should always rotate it, even if you can&#8217;t flip it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every mattress needs to be rotated once every 3 months, and we recommend that any flipping that needs to be done take place at the same time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-vivid-green-cyan-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Single Sided Mattress<\/strong> &#8211;   Once every 3 months: <strong>Rotate<\/strong> end to end<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-vivid-green-cyan-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Double Sided Mattress<\/strong> &#8211; Once every 3 months: <strong>Rotate<\/strong> end to end and <strong>flip<\/strong> over<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:26px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-do-i-rotate-and-flip-my-mattress-properly\"><strong>How Do I Rotate And Flip My Mattress Properly?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Step 1<\/strong>: Be sure that there are no potential hazards nearby or items such as lamps or mugs that could potentially be knocked to the floor. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step 2<\/strong>: Remove the duvet, sheets, pillows, or any other bedding and cushions from the bed.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step 3<\/strong>: With the sheets off, you should be able to see any handles on the mattress for turning.

Before flipping your mattress be sure to remove your duvet, pillows, sheets, and any furniture near the bed (if you foresee a problem with them being there). Check to see if your mattress has handles as you can use these to aid in flipping. Following this, move your mattress 180 degrees from the head of your bed to the foot, rotate it, and finally lift your mattress onto its side and slowly place it down on the other side, to flip it over as displayed in the above video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:26px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-rotating-your-mattress\"><strong>Rotating Your Mattress<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:26px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rotating a mattress is relatively straightforward, and although it can be done alone, is still easier when done with another person. To rotate your mattress, simply remove all bedding and any furniture close to your bed that could get in the way. Following this, simply move your mattress 180 degrees so that the foot of it is now at the head of the bed (note that some mattresses have side turning handles to make this process easier).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:26px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-is-one-person-a-lot-heavier-than-the-other\"><strong>Is One Person A Lot Heavier Than The Other?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:26px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many people sleep with a partner, particularly when married or in a relationship (or if you&#8217;re the grandparents in the Willy Wonka film, in which case you&#8217;ll <a href=\"\/mattresses\/emperor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">need a larger bed<\/a> that can accommodate 4 people). If you do have two people sleeping on the same mattress who are of significantly different body weight, then it is even more important to regularly rotate it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the heavier person sleeps on the same part of the mattress every night, then there is a strong likelihood it will start to dip on that side. To keep the fillings of the mattress evenly distributed be sure to rotate and flip the mattress as frequently as possible.
