A sofa spends more of a move uncovered than most people expect. It gets wrapped properly at one end, then unwrapped halfway through so someone can get the cushions round a door frame or down a stairwell, and it usually stays that way for the rest of the job. That’s the point where a pale sofa picks up a mark from a garage wall or a bit of dirt on the path to the van.

A cover won’t take every risk out of moving day, but it deals with the obvious ones. Dust, soil off a van floor, and water if the weather turns. It’s a few pounds against something you’ll want looking exactly the same when it comes back out.

Sized for 2 and 3 Seater Sofas

This cover measures 3 x 1.3 metres, sized to fit 2 and 3 seater sofas. Sofas vary a fair bit in depth and arm style, so it’s worth a quick measure of your own before you order. If you’ve got an armchair or something larger, you’ll want a cover sized for that instead. This one won’t stretch to fit.

Keeping It Secured

Once the cover’s on, secure it around the base of the sofa rather than draping it over the top. It’s far less likely to slip or snag on a door frame that way, and it stays where you put it for the whole move instead of coming loose on the stairs.

If You’re Storing as Well as Moving

If your sofa’s heading into storage rather than straight to a new address, that’s what we do. We collect it, look after it, and bring it back when you’re ready. Get an instant quote to see what that would cost alongside your move.

FAQ

Do I really need a sofa cover, or can I skip it?

You can skip it, but then you’re relying on nothing touching the sofa on the way out, which is rarely how a move goes. A cover is an affordable way to rule out dust, soil and water instead of hoping for the best.

What size sofa does this cover fit?

This one is sized for 2 and 3 seater sofas at 3 x 1.3 metres. For an armchair or a bigger sofa, you’d need a cover sized for that instead.

A mattress can travel or sit in storage without a cover, and most of the time nothing goes wrong. The trouble is that a bare mattress picks up whatever it gets leaned against: dust, grime off a van floor, damp if it’s stored anywhere less than bone dry. A cover costs you once. Replacing a mattress you’ve written off costs a lot more.

One Size for Double and Super King

We keep this to one size, 2.2 x 2.3 metres, and it fits both double and super king mattresses. That’s one less decision on a day that’s already full of them. If you’re not certain which bed size you’ve got, it doesn’t matter here. The same cover works for either, so you don’t need to measure anything first.

What It’s Made From

The cover is made from a durable, recyclable packaging material. Its job is to keep the everyday stuff off: dust, dirt and water, while the mattress is on the van or waiting in storage. Fit it snugly and tape it shut if you want the extra reassurance, particularly if the mattress is going to be handled more than once.

If You’re Storing as Well as Moving

If the mattress is heading into storage rather than straight to a new address, that’s our day job. We collect it, look after it, and bring it back when you want it. Get an instant quote to see what that would cost alongside your move.

FAQ

Will this fit a double or a super king mattress?

Both. It’s one size, 2.2 x 2.3 metres, made to cover either a double or a super king mattress, so there’s no version to choose between.

Does the cover need taping shut?

No, it doesn’t have to be taped. Taping it closed does give you extra reassurance if the mattress is going to be moved more than once, or left in storage for a while.

Is this the right cover for a single or king size mattress?

No, this one’s sized for double and super king only. If you need a different bed size, have a look at our other mattress covers before ordering.

A mattress rarely gets an easy ride. It spends a move propped against a wall, leant on the side of a van, or laid flat with other things stacked on top of it, and it’s bare the whole time. A cover keeps dust out of the fabric, soil off the surface, and damp away from it if it ends up somewhere that isn’t quite dry. None of that shows up on the day. It shows up when you unroll the mattress at the other end and find marks that a wash won’t shift.

It’s a small, inexpensive step for something you’re going to sleep on again, and it’s a lot easier to slip on before the move than to explain away afterwards.

Sized for a Single Mattress

This one measures 1.3 x 2.1m. If you’re covering a double, a super king or an armchair, those come as their own covers, because a single won’t stretch to fit. Worth checking the size against your mattress before you order so it goes on properly and stays on.

Built to Last the Journey

It’s made from durable recyclable packaging material, so it goes the distance rather than splitting the first time it’s pulled over a corner.

FAQ

Do I really need a mattress cover, or can I skip it?

You can skip it, but then you’re relying on nothing else touching the mattress on the way, which is rarely how a move or a stint in storage goes. A cover is an affordable way to rule out dust, soil and damp instead of hoping for the best.

What size mattress is this cover for?

This one is sized for a single mattress at 1.3 x 2.1m. If you need to cover a double, a super king or an armchair, those come as separate covers sized for that item.

An old bed sheet slides off the back of the chair somewhere between the living room and the van. A bin bag splits on the first door frame. A cover made for the job goes right over the chair and stays put, which is the whole point of it. Dust, damp and the odd knock in transit all stay on the outside.

You get two in a pack, so you can do a pair of armchairs, or keep the second one for whichever chair needs it next.

One Size, Made for Armchairs

Each cover measures 1.8 x 1.3 metres, sized for a single armchair rather than a two or three seat sofa. If there’s a sofa to cover as well, we have a cover that fits a 2/3 seat sofa.

Getting the Best Fit

Pull the cover over the top of the chair first, then work it down over the arms and the back so every side is covered rather than draped. If the armchair has wooden feet or arms that mark easily, wrap those with a bit of bubble wrap before the cover goes on. A strip of tape round the base holds it snug, so it can’t ride up or bunch while the chair is being carried or loaded.

If You’re Storing as Well as Moving

If the armchair is heading into storage rather than straight to a new address, that’s our day job. We collect it, look after it, and bring it back when you’re ready. Get an instant quote to see what that would cost alongside your move.

FAQ

Do I actually need a cover, or can I just use a sheet?

A sheet will do something, but it tends to slip partway through a move and leave the upholstery exposed anyway. A cover designed to fit stays where you put it and keeps the dust and damp off properly.

Will this fit a two seat sofa instead of an armchair?

No, this pack is sized for a single armchair at 1.8 x 1.3 metres. A sofa needs a bigger cover, we also sell a 2/3 seat sofa cover.

Can I use the same cover for a move and then for storage afterwards?

Yes. Taking it on and off won’t hurt it, so if the chair is going into storage after the move, the same cover goes straight back on.
