I'm moving. Is there any way to re-vacuum pack the mattress?

I'm guessing by how big it is now compared to what it was when it was shipped to me that there's no way to do that.maybe a customer rep can help answer that question better.

Maybe just fold up a nice blanket and place it on top of existing mattress. That's what I did with mine 7 years ago

I don't thnk so. I believe the delivery is done through a delivery service so you will need to dispose of your current mattress, I imagine.

I have never used mine on a trip to pack to come home. Once I open them after storing items for seasonal changes I discard them. I have found them to be very hard to reseal again and get a good vacuum seal after the initial use. I had one, with blankets and a quilt lose it's seal and was beyond it's usefulness. I would imagine if you were using a new bag in your hotel room you could call the front desk and ask them to borrow a vacuum with a hose attachment. Hope this helps.

I've not done this personally, but see no reason why it would not be possible. depending on the moisture content, you may need to clean the new cut edge and get it dry for a proper vacuum seal again, but as long as you had adequate bag remaining for the new seal you should be able to easily re-seal the contents as if it was a freshly filled bag.

Mine came to me all wrapped tight & expanded big time when I opened it & put it on the bed. I have a double. I can reposition it pretty easy on my bed so I imagine you could fold it up & put some kind of restraint to keep it that way. Or maybe you could stuff it in a space bag & vacuum the air out. Good luck.

I dont think it can be compressed again with household item. So yes, if you are on move, you probably need consider this as conventional mattress.

No. It's delivered by UPS. Call a local Goodwill. They might come get your old mattress.

Well it ships all rolled up and compressed. I was able to quite easily hold the compressed mattress on my shoulder and ballast it with one arm while carrying other things with the other arm. I imagine it will be significantly more difficult to move now that it is decompressed simply due to the odd shape of a queen size mattress. But I suspect it would be easy enough to fold it in half, tie it around the ends and middle with some rope, and have two people carry it at each end. So my answer would be that moving is not going to be terrible difficult, especially for two people. Remember there is no rigidity to it, so you will never have problems angling it up stairs or around corners: simply 'moosh' it through.

Once u cut the wrapping.. there is no going back.. it expands so u have to move it as an open mattress.

I have not used mine for moving; only storage. If done properly as instructions describe, they hold up quite well. The sealant works and maintains the compact version. The larger sizes hold quite a bit, like a huge thick comforter or two king bed sets. If not sealed properly they will leak air so just do what the instructions say and it should be fine. They are durable enough & have held up well for over a year.

The mattress is rolled for packaging. Just unroll, unwrap and lay down flat for about 48 hrs to let it air out.

The mattress is not vacuum sealed but it does have a protective plastic bag so it's clean. It is not like some of the 'foam' mattresses that come all compressed where you have to let it uncompress--it's already ready to go. I agree with the other reviewer that the box is kind of big BUT it is not heavy; the bedroom I wanted the bed for is upstairs and I was able to get the box up the stairs by myself. We've been very happy with the bed.

Unpack it carefully when you first receive it. Make a note on how it was folded so that you can easily fit it back into the box for the most efficient storage size. Unfortunately I didn't do this and had to figure out how to fold it up after using it.As it is deflating with the pump, tuck the sides in between the top and bottom layers. Once it is totally deflated and flat, fold it lengthwise so that it is only one-fourth as wide. The pump is very thick so you have to figure out how now to fold it so that most of the mattress material is not over the pump, otherwise it won't fit back into the box. I've only done it once so far but it did fit back into the box. Unpack it carefully when you first receive it.

The mattress segments are contained in a cloth shell. Trimming would destroy the shell and probably lead to accelerated degradation of the foam core. IMHO, doable, but not advisable.

We do not do this, but I have had customer hire a moving company for a small charge to do this task. Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks!

Mine arrived in a package that was about as long as the mattress was wide, and was maybe 12-18 inches square in profile. They vacuum pack the mattress and it takes up a lot less space than you would expect. It is packed about like a giant poster.
