Costco isn’t one of them.

Even if the mattress has been used, you are still eligible to return it. You can do so as long as there are no stains, damage, or any odor coming from the mattress itself.

If that’s the case, the mattress will be inspected and if it doesn’t meet the requirements, it will be sent back to you.

What’s The Process For Returning A Mattress?

Returning a mattress is a pretty straightforward process as long as it meets all of the requirements that have been mentioned above.

First, you need to take the mattress out of your bedroom and place it in an open space. This could be in your living room or any other area that’s easily accessible.

Once you’ve got the mattress in a suitable place, it’s time to start packing it up. Make sure that the packaging is still in good condition and isn’t damaged in any way.

Next up, it’s time to start packing the mattress.

Start by folding the mattress in half and then place it inside the box. If there’s still some space left in the box, then you can fill it up with some newspapers or similar.

Once you’ve got the mattress inside the box, seal it shut with packaging tape.

Now it’s time to attach the return label to the box. Keep in mind that this label needs to be attached to the top of the box, so make sure you do so before moving on to the next step.

Next up, you need to follow the Costco return process. There, you can schedule the return of your mattress.

This includes the scheduling of Costco picking up the mattress from your home (if eligible).
