Ford Transit Mattress
When it comes to the Ford Transits, the possibilities are as vast as the cargo space in these vehicles. They happen to be a great choice for van camping or for turning into a camper, whether your mattress is in the trunk, on the backseat, or on the van’s floor after the rear seats have been removed!
We can design your mattress to your specific wants and needs. If you have an idea of how you want your mattress personalized (cooling memory foam, hinges or folds, specific mattress height), contact us below!

Why Our Vehicle Mattresses Stand Out
- Unmatched Durability: Built from the finest materials, our mattresses endure the demands of travel while preserving comfort and shape.
- Personalized Comfort: Tailor-made support helps eliminate restless nights, and our mattresses are designed with your personalized comfort in mind! They utilize different materials for your preferred firmness levels and include options like cooling memory foam.
- Folding Options: Specially designed with a fabric hinge that allows them to fold up and save cargo space when not in use — the perfect option for conserving room during traveling. Need versatility? This option is for you.
- Custom Shapes: We offer custom-sized mattresses tailored to perfectly match the dimensions of your Transit’s sleeping area. Whether you use the rear seats folded down or a custom sleeping platform on the bench seat, our mattresses are designed to fit seamlessly, maximizing comfort and space
Every vehicle’s available interior space is different, and you should always measure your specific car before selecting or ordering a mattress.
How to Measure Your Ford Transit for a Mattress
To measure your van for a mattress, follow these simple steps:
Step 1: Determine if you want a mattress that fits only on the rear seats, or if you want a mattress that utilizes folded rear seats and extends into the trunk. For folding or removable seats, experiment with the configurations to maximize sleeping space. Decide what works best for you and your needs.
Step 2: Measure the length and width of the available space — including from the end of the trunk (or the back of the rear seats) to the back of the front seats, and from the surface where the mattress will rest to the roof of your vehicle.
Step 3: Account for any cut-outs or size changes along the mattress, such as the wheel wells. Mattress Insider can create notches, as well as cut in corners or curves in the mattress to account for these.
Step 4: Create a rough sketch of your mattress design, and add as much information as you think will be helpful! This includes the overall width, length, and height, and the location of any cut-outs, folds (hinges), or curves.
Step 5: Contact our mattress experts to help find the perfect mattress for you! We are able to create mattresses in almost any size using various materials (including foam, gel memory foam, and latex!).

FAQs
Q: Can a Ford Transit be used as a camper?
Yes! These vans are actually a great choice for road trips as they can be transformed into campers with the right mattress. Affordable custom options tailor made to your vehicle are available with Mattress Insider.
Q: How do I choose a mattress for my Transit?
Like you would for your at-home mattress, determine what you need to sleep comfortably — things like firmness level and additional perks like cooling features. After that, carefully measure your vehicle’s interior where the mattress will go. Then, chat with one of Mattress Insider’s experts on finding you the perfect fit for your budget and vehicle!
Q: What is the best Ford Transit car camping mattress?
The best van camping mattress is one that fits your needs and your vehicle’s dimensions, and that is affordable, comfortable, and durable. Mattress Insider offers all of the above with our car mattress products and custom mattress builder.
Q: Can I sleep on a mattress in my Ford Transit?
Yes, your Ford Transit has space for a mattress! Mattress Insider offers affordable custom mattress options that will ensure you get a fantastic night’s sleep and that will maximize your vehicle’s interior space.
Q: What size mattress will fit in a Ford Transit?
In terms of standard mattress sizes, the closest mattress that will fit in the back of most Ford models is a Twin. However, standard-sized mattresses do not take advantage of all of the available space.
Because of this, it’s best to have a custom mattress made. Plus, with a custom mattress, you will have the option to add folds or hinges for easy storage and transport.
Q: How to make a mattress for your Ford Transit?
You can build your own mattress using materials you can find at a craft store.
Acquire foam padding, or a foam mattress topper, and measure the back of your car. Then cut your foam to shape and use a spray adhesive to cover with a layer of fabric.
This solution can be inexpensive and quick, but it likely won’t last you long. Investing in a good mattress will ensure years of use without the hassle of frequently finding a new mattress.
Q: Would an air mattress work in a Ford Transit?
While an air mattress can work, they fall short in many aspects. Air mattresses are notorious for their lack of durability, often succumbing to punctures and leaks. An affordable custom mattress designed to fit your exact vehicle is a much more reliable investment.
Q: Are there Ford Transit mattress accessories?
From custom sized sheets and mattress protectors to pillows and cozy comforters, there are lots of options for car mattress accessories — when shopping in the right place. Standard box stores are unlikely to carry the right size you need, due to it being unique. Instead, opt to shop with a place that creates custom mattress accessories.
Q: Would a mattress fit on the backseat of my Ford Transit?
Bench seat mattresses, or backseat mattresses, can be a great option. Keep in mind that the space is far more limited than folding down the backseats, so it’s likely that a single sleeper will fit.
