Extra info

Mattress shopping touches every part of a household, bed frames, headboards, foundations, sheets, encasements, recycling, financing, delivery zones, return windows. The articles below collect the practical context that doesn't fit cleanly inside a buying guide: how to dispose of an old mattress in LA, what a foundation actually does (vs a box spring), how recycling fees work in California, headboard attachment for adjustable bases, and the housekeeping topics shoppers ask about at the showroom. None of it is the headline decision, that's what the buying guides cover, but all of it shows up at delivery, and reading it ahead of time saves a phone call.
