Lost Your Mattress Receipt? Warranty Registration Still Works.

Mattress warranties run 10–25 years. A missing receipt should not void coverage that long. Here's how to register without one.

Mattress Warranties Are Among the Longest in Consumer Products

Premium mattress brands offer warranties ranging from 10 to 25 years - Tempur-Pedic offers a 10-year full replacement warranty; Saatva covers 15 years; some brands extend to lifetime coverage on structural components. These are genuinely valuable warranties over a long ownership window.

Because mattresses last a decade or more, paper receipts are particularly unreliable proof of purchase for long-term warranty claims. Digital registration is the manufacturer-preferred method precisely because it creates a durable, searchable ownership record that outlasts any paper document.

Where to Find the Mattress Serial Number

The mattress serial number is on a white law tag sewn into the mattress, typically on the side of the mattress near the foot of the bed. By law, mattress tags cannot be removed by anyone other than the consumer - they are required to remain on the mattress. This tag contains the model, size, and serial number.

If the tag has been removed or is illegible, contact the retailer where you purchased the mattress - most retailers store purchase records indefinitely and can provide the serial number from your order.

You cannot find a receipt from 8 years ago. But you can find a digital registration you made in two minutes the day the mattress arrived.

Establishing Purchase Date Without a Receipt

Check your email for the retailer's order confirmation or delivery notification - mattresses are typically delivered, creating a clear digital record. Your bank or credit card statement shows the purchase amount and date. For mattresses purchased in-store years ago, the retailer's CRM often has the transaction on file under your phone number or email address.

Serial number from the law tag. Two minutes. Warranty protection for the full 10–25 year coverage window.
