Mattress and box spring on top of car.

While driving with a mattress on top of your vehicle it is a good idea to stick to the back roads and stay off of busy streets just in case something happens. Put a piece of rope on the roof of the car that goes from back bumper to front bumper. Secure your mattress to the top of the car. Toss the first long piece of rope over the length of the mattress.

Still there is a basic method to follow when tying a mattress to the roof of a car. You can use a plastic mattress cover to prevent your mattress from collecting dirt and permanent stains. Buy sturdy rope nylon or polyester based. During the process of being moved the sides and top of your mattress may come in contact with floors stairs the ground outside and the inside of a moving van or the top of your car.

There should be enough to secure one end under the front of your car and enough at the other end to secure the second end under the back of your car. Place the mattress on the roof making sure it s in the middle. If so how would be the best way of strapping it down. In addition keep an eye on the mattress so you notice if it starts to slip a rope comes loose or the plastic breaks.
