Built To Fit An Awkward Cab Shape, Not A Standard Rectangle

Truck cabs rarely have a simple rectangular sleeping space, yet most mattresses are made in standard shapes that leave gaps or overhang the edges. The Foam People's T Shape Truck Mattress is specifically made to measure for the actual shape of a truck cab.

A genuine T-shaped design for proper fit

Unlike a standard rectangle mattress forced into an irregular space, this mattress is cut specifically in a T shape — eliminating gaps and overhang that come from fitting a rectangular mattress into a non-rectangular cab.

Made to the exact dimensions of the vehicle

The team contacts customers directly after ordering to request a plan with the exact dimensions required, ensuring the mattress is produced to genuinely accurate measurements rather than a generic size that may not fit.

A choice of foam depth and firmness

The mattress is available from 4 inches up to 8 inches deep, with options ranging from all-supportive foam through to a 6-inch base with a 2-inch memory foam top — genuine choice in both depth and firmness to suit personal sleep preference.

British-manufactured foam with decades of expertise

The Foam People draws on over 80 years of foam manufacturing experience, based in West Yorkshire — a genuine manufacturing heritage behind the custom cutting rather than an outsourced, generic foam product.

A practical, wipe-clean black cover option

The hard-wearing black stitched cover is specifically designed for those constantly on and off the bed without using a bed sheet — a genuinely practical choice for truck drivers who need low-maintenance bedding.

Lengths up to 205cm as standard

The mattress can be made up to 205cm in length to accommodate different cab sizes — with longer lengths available by request, giving genuine flexibility beyond a single fixed size.

Internally tested for real-world comfort and longevity

Products undergo internal real-world testing carried out over a minimum of three months to assess firmness and longevity — a genuine quality assurance process rather than relying purely on theoretical foam specifications.

Strong, independently verified customer satisfaction

Reviewers on Trustpilot specifically praise how easily they could order custom dimensions and how well the finished product fit their vehicle — genuine customer validation of the made-to-measure process working as intended.

Who It Suits

This mattress suits truck drivers who need a properly fitted sleeping surface for an irregularly shaped cab, rather than compromising with a generic rectangular mattress. Anyone whose cab has a standard rectangular sleeping area should instead check The Foam People's Standard Rectangle Truck Mattress, which uses the same foam options in a simpler shape.
