Bunk In A Bag is a custom-made cover for a truck bunk, inspired by complaints from drivers about the state of their sleeping accommodations, especially those in slip-seat work. Ruth and Jackie, two women from southwestern Ontario, listened. One of them is a veteran of trucking, the other with many years of commercial sewing experience, and they came up with an easy solution, namely a zippered cover that encases the whole mattress. Easily removable and washable, the covers are portable and literally come in a bag. They sell for $65.95 and up depending on fabric and size. Pillows are also on offer.

The covers serve to preserve a new mattress or renew an old one that’s tired, worn, or stained. And as the women say, "You’ll never worry about sleeping on someone else’s bed again."

Each Bunk In A Bag is custom made to your individual needs. Understanding that truck bunks come in many different sizes they require measurements with your order. E-mail bunkinabag@yahoo.ca for more info or visit the website.
