Chelsea Cleaning offers professional mattress cleaning in Cape Town and the Helderberg.
Sleep easy, knowing that you and your family aren’t being exposed to dust mites, bacteria and other pollutants.
The recommended guideline is to have your mattress professionally cleaned at least once a year. If you have pets or small children, it’s a good idea to clean your mattresses more often.
In between, you can help keep mites, dust and other pollutants at bay through regular vacuuming, although ensure you use a vacuum with a filter.
How we clean mattresses
Chelsea Cleaning’s process for cleaning mattresses involves:
High-power vacuuming.
Use of industry-leading stain removal formulas and emulsion cleaners to treat soiled areas.
A steam clean that uses hot water extraction to eliminate mold, dust mites and soiling.
A final vacuum.
Air drying.
Why have your mattresses cleaned?
We spend roughly eight hours out of every day of our lives on a mattress – but unlike our clothing or even carpets or curtains, mattresses tend to get overlooked when it comes to cleanliness.
Over time, shed skin cells, dander from pets, dust and pollen work their way into a mattress. In turn, the mattress becomes a breeding ground for bacteria and dust mites, which feed especially on discarded skin cells. In addition, mould thrives in mattresses, especially in warm climates like the one we have in South Africa.
When your mattress is dirty, mite excrement, dust, mould spores and other organisms are blown up in a cloud whenever you toss or turn, or sit on the bed. A simple bed sheet isn’t enough to prevent these microscopic organisms from making it to your nose, eyes and mouth.
For millions of people, exposure to these pollutants causes allergies or makes their existing allergies worse. It can also provoke asthma attacks.
Even if you don’t suffer from these conditions, the thought of being exposed to these pollutants when you sleep is far from appealing.

How We Clean Mattresses
We’re all generally good about making sure our bedding is clean but not everyone considers just how dirty their mattresses can get.
Getting the Smell of Urine Out of a Mattress
Children, the elderly and pets are all prone to accidents that can leave mattresses stained and smelly – and unfortunately, the smell of urine in a mattress is notoriously difficult to get rid of.
How to Choose the Best Mattress
We spend more than a third of our lives in bed. This is where we rest, relax, sleep and feel safe and snug. Because bed is important to us – and because good mattresses today are far from cheap – it’s worth considering what to look for when you buy a new one.
Does My Bed Have Bed Bugs?
Bed bugs are small insects that take up residence in soft furnishings, particularly mattresses. They feed on the blood of warm-blooded animals, including people.
What’s Living in Your Bed
