What does mattress cleaning include?

Mattress cleaning requires a range of specialist tools and cleaning products designed to get great results, without damaging your mattress. Never had your mattress professionally cleaned before? Here’s what you can expect:

Step 1- Preparation and inspection

Strip your bed of all linen before your professional mattress cleaner arrives. This makes it easier for your cleaner to look at the fabric and assess any spots, stains, or other cleaning challenges. They’ll then decide which cleaning products and tools they need.

Step 2 - Pre-clean vacuum 

Surface dust and mites are quickly banished using a high powered vacuum for mattresses. (Meaning it won’t have been run over any dirty floors.) Some professional mattress vacuums include a UV light that kills germs and bacteria.

Step 3 - Dry clean or steam clean

Depending on what’s decided during the inspection, your mattress will be deep cleaned using a dry cleaning method or a mattress steam cleaning technique. Mattress dry cleaning involves sprinkling cleaning powder over the mattress. Left to sit for several minutes, it will loosen dirt and oils trapped in the mattress. When enough time has passed, your cleaner will vacuum up the powder, taking the bed-based nasties with it. 

Mattress steam cleaning uses hot water and pressure. This technique is best for eliminating mattress stains. Your cleaner may also combine steam cleaning with other stain removal products. If your mattress can be flipped, they’ll clean both sides.

Step 4 - Drying and airing

Your mattress will need drying if it’s been steam cleaned. To speed this up, your cleaner will use extra drying equipment. Whether your mattress is steam or dry cleaned it’s a good idea to let your mattress air for a few hours afterwards. Deodorisers and sanitisers may have been added to your mattress so it smells fresh and clean, so it’s a good idea to let these settle. Your professional cleaner will advise what’s best based on the cleaning methods and product used.

Step 5 - Final inspection

Before leaving your property, your cleaner will do a final mattress inspection. They’ll check that stains are gone, there’s no lingering dust, and that the mattress is as dry as possible. Finally, they’ll pack away their equipment and let you know when you can make your bed.
