Swag Storage

[gphcald Member Find all posts View Profile Close gphcald]

I have always stored my swags unrolled normally under the bed. Now SWMBO wants to put drawers there. The current swag is a Oztrail Lachlan King with foam mattress.
Will it do any damage to the mattress / swag if stored loosely not tightly rolled up ?

I've always stored mine rolled up. The main thing is not to do this if they're wet or damp. After each trip I'll air them on the back deck for a few days before rolling them up. When dry it should be no probs.

I agree keeping them rolled up is fine. Mine is about 16 years old and has always been kept rolled up and stored in the shed away from direct light and is still in very good condition.
