Put the mattress on top of the car and rope so that it goes length wise with the length of the car see pics above.
A queen bed mattress also works for a single person who wants more sleeping space.
If you can borrow or rent one you re in good shape.
Put a piece of rope on the roof of the car that goes from back bumper to front bumper.
Open the doors and pass the strap through the interior of the car.
Once the rope is tightly placed on the mattress open all.
On my prado the roof rack width is 1 25m.
Mattresses are large bulky and can pick up resistance from the wind.
If you do secure your mattress to a roof rack or safely in the bed of a truck strap it down with ratcheting straps.
It is also very likely that the width of the mattress will overhang the side of your roof racks.

But make sure that the mattress does not obstruct your forward vision.
Most mattresses won t fit inside a car s trunk or hatch.
Pull the rope tight so there is no extra slack.
Secure the front end of the mattress and then the other end of the mattress.
Center the mattress in the middle and put the rope over the length of the mattress.
For example most mattresses of any size will fit into a typical pickup truck.
So i would try and strap the mattress around the roof of the car.
Still there is a basic method to follow when tying a mattress to the roof of a car.
Buy sturdy rope nylon or polyester based.
After the mattress is secure in the plastic place the mattress on the roof.
Some vehicles however are ideal for moving a twin full double queen or even king sized mattress.
Do you see this being a problem if i go really slow.
