Frequently Asked Questions

Very safe. Think about tent camping where you’re exposed to the elements, the bugs, and the neighboring humans and/or wildlife. Now imagine that your tent is soundproof, lockable, and has wheels so you can just drive away in the middle of the night without packing up. That’s the benefit of sleeping in your car.

Not if you crack your windows at night! This will help aerate the car and prevent condensation from building up on the inside of your windows.

Solutions for sleeping in your car in hot/humid conditions:

  1. Crack all of your windows. Roll them all the way down if there’s no chance of rain. This will offer more airflow than you get in a tent. (Worried about bugs getting in? Cover the open windows with a set of window screens. These allow airflow in without letting the bugs in.)
  2. Mount a small battery operated clip-on fan to your headrests or ceiling.
  3. If you have a hybrid or fully electric vehicle, you can use the climate control without fear of draining your car’s battery.
  4. Sleep up off the floor of your car. Sleeping on a mattress right on the floor restricts airflow. When you elevate the mattress up onto a sleeping platform, it allows the mattress to breathe and air to circulate throughout the bed.
  5. Use a mattress or sleeping pad with a low R-value (little to no insulation). An air mattress is better than a foam mattress for staying cool.
  6. Invest in cooling bed sheets.

Note: We don’t recommend sleeping in your car during the day or before the sun goes down. If it’s too hot to sleep in a tent, it’s also too hot to sleep in your car. On extremely miserable nights, drive to a new location or get a hotel room for the night. Car camping, like any camping, is best done when the conditions are bearable.

Surprisingly, yes! With a little practice, you’ll be sleeping better in your car than you do in your bed at home! The excitement of waking up in a brand new environment without the hassles of traditional tent camping is next level! You’ve got to try it to believe it!

We encourage everyone to experiment with different sleeping options before investing in a sleeping platform. Depending on the shape of your vehicle’s interior, an air mattress on the floor may work fine in a pinch. Our customers, however, are quick to point out that their back seats don’t lay down flat. And there’s a gaping hole between the 2nd row seats and the 1st row seats. So a mattress on the floor makes for a lumpy bed with a drop-off on one end. And comfort aside, when you put a mattress on the floor, you have no room for your gear. By lifting the bed up off the floor of your car, you solve both problems at once.

PS, a raised sleeping platform also allows your mattress to breathe and offers increased airflow while you sleep!

You may have more headroom than you think! We’ve spent a ton of time optimizing our design to best fit your vehicle and maximize the amount of usable space you have while in bed. But at the end of the day, you’re still just sleeping in your car so you’re limited by the amount of available space your car offers.

Most folks use public toilets for going #2. But many will carry a portable travel toilet along with them for going #1, or in the event of an emergency. There’s not a whole lot of space inside most SUVs, so it’s common to set up a privacy tent or curtain if in a public space. You can buy portable travel toilets or make your own with a bucket, a trash bag, and kitty litter.

Our recommended weight limit is 275 pounds for single use or 500 pounds combined weight if sleeping two. The aluminum tubing we use is very strong and we have tested it to well above the recommended limit with no issues.

This recommended weight limit is a suggestion and is not based on scientific calculations. Please contact us if you have specific questions about this.

If the bed does break, we will make it right (read our TrunkMate Promise!)

Single sleeping platforms sleep 1

Double sleeping platforms sleep 1 or 2, depending on your sleeping preferences and the size of your mattress.
