Mattress Pads
Fitted or Flat Pads
Fitted Mattress Pads protect both the top and sides of your mattress, while adding a layer of comfort. Similar to a fitted sheet, they are held on with an Elastic Band that is sewn into the edge of the pad. Choose from waterproof or non-waterproof. Machine washable.
* Before ordering fitted pads, be sure to measure the depth of your mattress. Fitted pads are offered in a variety of depths, and in order to ensure proper fit, you need to know the depth of your mattress.
Flat Mattress Pads–Unlike fitted pads, flat mattress pads simply cover the top of your mattress. They can be covered and held in place with a fitted sheet. Additionally, some flat pads are offered with elastic corner Anchor Bands that are used to secure the pad to each corner of the bed. Choose from waterproof or non-waterproof. Machine washable.
Mattress Covers
Step 1: Choose Fitted or Zippered Covers
Fitted Mattress Covers are used to protect the top and sides of your mattress, or box spring. They attach the same way as a fitted mattress pad or sheet. Choose from vinyl or polypropylene covers–see below.
Zippered Mattress Covers completely encase your entire mattress, providing maximum protection. Choose from vinyl or polypropylene covers–see below.
Step 2: Choose Fabric Type
Vinyl Mattress Covers are waterproof, and fire retardant. Choose from standard 3 gauge vinyl, or heavy-duty 6 gauge vinyl. Zippered vinyl covers are bed bug proof.
