Will a Mattress Fit in My Car?

Mattress sizes are fairly standardised, but every car's cargo space and boot opening is different. Check your specific mattress against your specific vehicle below.

What to consider

Standard AU/UK sizes

Single ≈1900×920mm, Double ≈1900×1370mm, Queen ≈2030×1530mm, King ≈2030×1830mm — always confirm your exact mattress, as brands vary.

Thickness matters

Modern mattresses can be 200–350mm thick, which affects whether it fits through the boot opening even if length and width are fine.

On its side vs flat

Standing it on its long edge often changes which dimension is the limiting one — the calculator tests every orientation automatically.

Don't bend memory foam or hybrid mattresses sharply

A gentle curve on its side is usually fine; a tight fold can cause permanent damage.

Will a Mattress Fit in My Car? — FAQ

Can I fit a queen mattress in my SUV?+

A standard queen mattress is roughly 2030×1530mm. Many mid-size and large SUVs can fit one flat with the rear seats folded if the cargo width and depth are sufficient — but the boot opening also has to be wide and tall enough for it to go in flat or on its side. Enter your SUV and mattress dimensions above to check.

Should I bend or fold the mattress?+

Most modern mattresses (memory foam, hybrid) should not be tightly folded or bent sharply — this can damage the internal materials permanently. Standing it on its side (long edge down) is usually fine; a tight fold is not.

Is it safe to drive with a mattress sticking out?+

An unsecured or oversized load is a safety and legal risk in most places — it must be properly tied down, must not obstruct your view, and must comply with local load-projection rules. If it doesn't fit inside, consider a van, ute, trailer or delivery service instead.
