Okay, I apologize for this many posts but I am very anxiuos to ask. So pardon me please. If you want to return the latex bed layers and even the foundation too - how do you package them and how does the shipper take them back? I mean it would be hard to roll those latex layers and package them back and the foundation woul dalso be exteremely hard to package and taking all this to the shipper would require a truck would it not? Thanks for everything. |

I have returned two latex layers to Flobeds: once when they accidentally sent the wrong size topper, and once for a layer exchange. The process was very easy, and contrary to what one person said here, it can be easily managed by one person. With Flobeds, each layer of latex comes individually packaged in two large plastic bags, and inner bag and an outer bag. To package a layer to return it, you: 1. Fold the latex layer into thirds, like you would fold a sheet of paper. 2. Place the latex layer into a very large plastic bag. 3. Insert the TIP of a vacuum nozzle into the bag, wrap the plastic around the vacuum hose, and turn it on, letting the vacuum suck all of the air out of the plastic bag and out from the latex. The latex compresses very rapidly. 4. Carefully holding the bag, withdraw the vacuum nozzle, then tape the bag shut. All of the air will be extracted and the bag and latex inside will be shrunken. 5. Place this bag into the second bag, and tape it shut. 6. Put the bag of compressed latex in a box, seal it and mail it. All of this sounds a lot more complicated than it is, it takes about 5 minutes and is very easy to do. A layer of latex in a box will weigh around 20 pounds, not light but not too heavy to lift and carry. I would not let the prospect of exchanging layers deter you. |
