Giving some thought to proper mattress maintenance may help you get more years out of your mattress. Taking care of a mattress includes knowing when to rotate it. It’s normal for a mattress to develop slight indentations in the areas that you usually lie on. To evenly break in the sleep surface and avoid having one part of the bed grow softer than the rest, most manufacturers recommend regularly rotating the mattress from head to foot, every 6-12 months. For the most accurate information, it’s important to consult the details on your specific brand and bed type.

Washing your sheets and bedding regularly is important for a multitude of reasons, but it can also help protect your mattress from premature damage. The dirt and oils which accumulate on your bedding can gradually seep into your mattress. Bedding also attracts dust mites and other allergens, which may disrupt sleep for those with allergies. In general, you should wash your sheets and pillowcases at least once a week, or more often if your pets sleep with you. Doing each of these things can help ensure that your Milton mattress lasts for the long term, bringing you night after night of peaceful sleep.
