Camp logistics

Large camps need many mattresses delivered quickly to remote sites. Plan packing, unloading help and storage, and check the first delivery carefully. Specify cleaning and fire requirements according to the camp rules.

Hygiene and durability

Camp mattresses are used by rotating workers in hot conditions. Wipe-clean covers, dense foam and a regular cleaning schedule keep them usable. Plan inspection by block and replace units with torn covers or deep impressions.

Cost view

Because camps buy in large volumes, a small price difference per mattress becomes a large total. Compare total cost over expected life, including cleaning and replacement, before choosing the cheapest option.

Detailed guidance

Labour camps need mattresses that are durable, easy to clean and quick to deliver in volume. Specify bed size, thickness and a dense foam or coir core, a wipe-clean cover and any fire requirement set by the client or the authority. Ask for packing that suits bulk transport and unloading.

Plan cleaning and inspection by block and replace damaged units promptly. Keep a spare stock for new arrivals. Compare quotes on cost per bed per year, not only price, since replacing cheap mattresses often costs more. Confirm delivery logistics to remote sites, including vehicle types and access, and check the first delivery carefully.

Worked example (illustrative figures)

A camp with 1,000 beds orders dense foam mattresses with wipe-clean covers. The supplier packs them by block and delivers in four trucks. A check at the first delivery finds 6 damaged units, which are replaced before the next truck.
