rather mundane problem

[thepiercedrose]

I have a problem I don't know how to fix. My mattress keeps sliding off the box spring toward the side I sleep on. Anyone know a good way to stop that from happening?? Aside from either building a box to house both mattresses or going back to sleeping on a futon, that is...

This may not help... but it might. :) Can you prop something under the edge of the mattress, to slightly lift the side that keeps sliding off? Maybe it will help it keep from moving... ::hugs::

don't know... I can certainly think about it this weekend and see if I can come up with anything.

Thanks!!

Uhm... A really big sheet of velcro between the mattress and the box spring?

;P

self-adhesive velcro? doublesided tape? one of those rubber anti-slip mats between the boxspring and the mattress? Giant Lag Bolts.

The possibilities are endless...

Box springs usually have a wooden frame at the bottom. You could tack a long strip of plywood to it along the affected side, wide enough to hold the lower edge of the mattress in place.

get some rope or bungee cords and tie the damn mattress down....
