    ❓ Has anyone cleaned a mattress before?

    I’ve cleaned a few.

    I have also cleaned a few, but curious if there should be extra caution with the pillow-top kind? Or if they should be cleaned differently? Thanks for the help.

    I charge the following:
    King- $175
    Queen- $150
    Twin- $125
    Single- $100
    Optional services can include pet enzyme, disinfectant, deodorizer, and fabric protection. You also want to keep in mind, just like carpet some maybe more soiled than others ( charge a premium or walk away.)

    Does anyone worry about cleaning a mattress now that bedbugs are back in the spotlight?

    I have tried cleaning a couple of mattresses, but don’t feel that I am doing a decent job. The cleaner gets in there and seems to soak right thorough before you can pull anything out. Also I really don’t feel we have the right heat to kill bed bugs.

    we usually charge $100-$150 depending on how bad it is. Don’t be scared to walk away from the bad ones, we’ve ran away from a few of the bad ones.

    Old Post I know but could somebody post a description of the mattress cleaning process? Or does corporate actually publish something on this topic?

    We just use the standard upholstery cleaning method. Never had any problems. Apply 101. Let dwell. Agitate. Extract. Collect paycheck.

    I avoid mattresses if possible, but agree with Evan. Just clean like upholstery. If urine is a concern, don’t guarantee removal. Also, if bed bugs are involved….RUN AWAY!!!! Trust me. I’ve had bed bugs in my house before (thanks relatives!). You do not want anything to do with them. The heat from an extractor (even truckmount) is not hot enough to kill them. Anything involving bed bugs should receive a NO answer from you.
