If you use an electric carving knife, the process of cutting becomes effortless. But keep one thing in mind, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">make sure you are wearing safety equipment while cutting.<\/span><\/li><li><strong>Second<\/strong> <strong>Step<\/strong>,<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"> you need to make an incision through the first layer<\/span> (soft layer). Using a pair of scissors will do the work if you don&#8217;t have a sharp knife.<\/li><li><strong>Third<\/strong> <strong>Step<\/strong>, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">With the help of the tape, measure the right size you want.<\/span> It would be best if you were specific with your required size. You don&#8217;t want your mattress to be uneven after cutting it. If that happens, the bed won&#8217;t fit into your space.<\/li><li><strong>Fourth Step<\/strong>, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">take a sharp scalpel and mark the places to make sure to have the right size in the end. <\/span>(Important note: you need to keep in mind that the mattress should be marked carefully. If you did not mark it correctly, do it again till you get the proper measures.)<\/li><li><strong>Fifth Step,<\/strong> This step can be more straightforward if you don&#8217;t have any spring in your mattress. But <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">if you have a spring layer, since you marked the surface, use a Dremel and cut along with the marked line and be careful with it.<\/span><\/li><li><strong>Sixth Step,<\/strong> This is where you get the actual work, and you need strong support to do this. Use a piece of cloth or any firm, thin rope to tie both the folded ends. You need to confirm that they don&#8217;t tear through the fabric and then close the lots of two pieces with the help of a sewing machine or needle and give a finishing touch with wax thread.<\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s a great guide I have found if you are trying to cut short your mattress for RV:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container\" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to shorten the length of a mattress that has coils for your RV\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1EqHICi3vrE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-divider ugb-divider ugb-728f713 ugb-divider--v2 ugb-divider--design-basic ugb-main-block\"><style>.ugb-728f713 hr.ugb-divider__hr{background-color:#9b51e0 !important;width:100% !important;margin-left:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important}<\/style><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><hr class=\"ugb-divider__hr\"\/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-heading ugb-heading ugb-59d1f29 ugb-main-block\"><style>.ugb-59d1f29 .ugb-heading__title{text-align:center}.ugb-59d1f29 .ugb-heading__bottom-line{background-color:#ff6900 !important;height:3px !important;width:501px !important;margin-left:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important}.ugb-59d1f29 .ugb-inner-block{text-align:center}<\/style><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><h2 class=\"ugb-heading__title\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\" class=\"ugb-highlight\">Why Resize A Mattress?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2><div class=\"ugb-heading__bottom-line\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Now you know how to resize a mattress but there are many reasons why you should resize a mattress, and some of them are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-heading ugb-heading ugb-8cece53 ugb-main-block\"><style>.ugb-8cece53 .ugb-heading__title{text-align:center}.ugb-8cece53 .ugb-heading__bottom-line{width:1px !important}<\/style><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><h3 class=\"ugb-heading__title\">\ud83d\udecf\ufe0f <strong>Comfort<\/strong><\/h3><div class=\"ugb-heading__bottom-line\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes we get attached to our old mattress, and we cannot deny the fact.

For instance, if you plan to shift your mattress, if you do it without the assistance of an expert, there is a chance that you can damage other property while moving or cause an accident while driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But there&#8217;s a silver lining to it! If you love to sleep with your old mattress, it&#8217;s compulsory to move it. Therefore resizing your bed and then shifting makes the process much easier. When you move your right size mattress, the effort and the cost become much less than hiring a professional to move the superior and old mattress from one place to another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-divider ugb-divider ugb-3bae2f2 ugb-divider--v2 ugb-divider--design-basic ugb-main-block\"><style>.ugb-3bae2f2 hr.ugb-divider__hr{background-color:#9b51e0 !important;width:100% !important;margin-left:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important}<\/style><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><hr class=\"ugb-divider__hr\"\/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-heading ugb-heading ugb-9af3ec4 ugb-main-block\"><style>.ugb-9af3ec4 .ugb-heading__title{color:#8400ff;text-align:center}.ugb-9af3ec4 .ugb-heading__bottom-line{background-color:#ff6900 !important;width:200px !important;margin-left:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important}.ugb-9af3ec4 .ugb-inner-block{text-align:center}<\/style><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><h2 class=\"ugb-heading__title\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\" class=\"ugb-highlight\"><strong><strong>Ways to enlarge or upgrade a mattress<\/strong><\/strong><\/span><\/h2><div class=\"ugb-heading__bottom-line\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>There are various alternative to upgrade your mattress in case you want your mattress to be extended:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-7d528ca3 gb-headline-text\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\" class=\"ugb-highlight\">Use extensions<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;This method requires less effort, as all you have to do is just extend the mattress by adding a mattress of your choice with the existing mattress.
