i have a 6' wide by 7.5' long bed (OH rather tall) change the bed every 2-3 weeks and turn the mattress every 3 months and i find it sometimes is easier to do this on my own and i'm only 5'2'' :eek:A few years ago when DH was away with work for 6 months, we had just (stupidly) bought a superking size bed...I told my Nan that I was only going to change the sheets 6 times while he was away.....
1 week on the left hand side
1 week on the right hand side
1 week other side of the bed
1 week the place next.
People with a stpid size bed will know what an emotional experience changing the duvet cover is...especially when you are only 5ft tall
while i knit i think

Once a week/every 10 days for the bottom sheet; once a fortnight for the duvet cover.0

Clean sheets, when you've showered and shaved your legs is the best feeling ever! Every week for me, on a Friday, my son's, my daughters' and our king size bed, and I agree it's ever so hard changing a duvet when you're short, five foot four and half!:A :

I was sensible and found myself a 6ft 4 OH to do duvet covers lol.
We have a superking bed.. I do the sheets (top, bottom and 6 pillow covers) every week.. DD3 has had her bed changed 4 times in the last 3 days :eek: I am doing everyone elses tomorrow.
I do the childrens less as they do not sweat as much as us adults do.. and our bed sees a fair bit of action so has legs after a week! DD1 and DD2 have responsibility for changing their own bedding.. at 13 and 15 that isn't a great deal to ask. I tell the boys to strip theirs and they put on their own sheets (14 and 11) I have OH do the little 2's beds.. they have bunks and I struggle and it takes him seconds.
