Additional Factors

Measurement Tips

Stair Width: Measure at the narrowest point, usually between handrails.
Ceiling Height: Measure from stair surface to lowest ceiling point.
Turns: Count only 90-degree turns in the delivery path.
Packaging: Compressed mattresses are much easier to deliver.

Standard Clearances

Minimum Stair Width: 36 inches
Minimum Ceiling: 80 inches
Minimum Door: 32 inches
Ideal Hallway: 42+ inches

How Our Delivery Calculator Works

Our advanced algorithm analyzes multiple factors to predict delivery feasibility and identify potential challenges.

1

Mattress Analysis

We analyze your mattress dimensions, type, and packaging to understand flexibility and maneuvering requirements.

2

Path Measurement

Your stairway, doorway, and hallway measurements are processed to create a 3D delivery path model.

3

Clearance Calculation

Our algorithm calculates required clearances, turning radii, and maneuvering space for safe delivery.

4

Feasibility Report

Receive detailed analysis with delivery verdict, challenge identification, and alternative solutions.

Why Check Delivery Feasibility

Avoid costly delivery failures and ensure smooth mattress delivery to your bedroom.

Avoid Delivery Fees

Prevent failed delivery charges, return fees, and restocking costs by ensuring compatibility upfront.

Save Time

Avoid multiple delivery attempts, scheduling delays, and the frustration of undeliverable mattresses.

Prevent Damage

Avoid mattress damage from forcing through tight spaces or dropping during difficult deliveries.

Plan Alternatives

Identify alternative delivery methods like hoisting, disassembly, or compressed packaging options.

Inform Delivery Team

Provide delivery teams with accurate information to prepare proper equipment and personnel.

Protect Property

Prevent damage to walls, banisters, and doorframes during challenging delivery attempts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if my mattress won't fit through the stairs?

If traditional delivery isn't possible, consider these alternatives: compressed/rolled mattresses that expand after delivery, mattresses that can be folded or bent, hoisting through windows or balconies, disassembling bed frames to create more space, or choosing a smaller mattress size that fits your space constraints.

How accurate are the calculator predictions?

Our calculator is highly accurate when provided with precise measurements. It accounts for industry-standard delivery practices and safety margins. However, unusual architectural features, furniture placement, or delivery team experience can affect actual delivery. We recommend having a backup plan for borderline cases.

What measurements are most critical?

The most critical measurements are stairway width (at the narrowest point), ceiling height above stairs, door widths, and the number of turns in your delivery path. These create the primary constraints for mattress delivery. Always measure at the narrowest points and account for handrails, light fixtures, or other obstructions.

Can compressed mattresses solve delivery problems?

Yes! Compressed mattresses are rolled and vacuum-sealed into much smaller packages, making them ideal for tight spaces. A queen mattress can compress to about 18" x 18" x 40". However, not all mattress types compress well - memory foam and latex compress better than innerspring mattresses.

What about spiral or curved stairs?

Spiral and curved stairs are the most challenging for mattress delivery. The calculator accounts for the reduced maneuvering space and tighter turning radii. For these stair types, compressed mattresses or alternative delivery methods (like hoisting) are often necessary, especially for larger mattress sizes.

Should I hire professional movers?

For challenging deliveries identified by our calculator, professional movers with experience in tight-space deliveries are recommended. They have specialized equipment, techniques, and insurance. Standard delivery teams may refuse difficult deliveries or charge additional fees for challenging access.
